Description

The invention relates to the collection and storage of medical and veterinary waste.

Medical and veterinary waste can cause infections, so it is very important to minimize the possibility of mechanical contact with humans or animals during and after collection. Such infected waste is a byproduct of medical and veterinary treatment. Medical waste, in particular, includes contaminated sharp objects, such as needles, syringes, blades, scalpels, broken glass, unused sharp objects, etc. Contaminated sharp objects and waste from infectious diseases departments belong to special categories, as they can be carriers of dangerous infections like AIDS or hepatitis. In addition, sharp objects that come across on beaches and other public places require special attention of the community.

All of the above requires the immediate collection and special storage, destruction and disinfection of these contaminated sharp objects.

The closest in technical essence to the proposed one is a waste container, mainly medical, including a container made in the form of a plastic bucket with a neck having a rounding towards its side surface and provided with an annular edge with a protrusion, a removable cover (see utility model patent No. 42035 IPC V65F _^1/00, 2004).

The disadvantage of this waste container is that contact with contaminated sharp objects is possible during their collection and, as a result, infection with dangerous infections.

The technical result, the achievement of which the claimed invention is directed, consists in avoiding contact with contaminated sharp objects.

To achieve the technical result, a container for waste, mainly medical, including a container made in the form of a plastic bucket with a neck having a rounding towards its lateral surface and provided with an annular edge with a protrusion, a removable lid, a removable lid has a flat bottom with transition corrugation and flanging for fastening, in the lower part of the bottom in the center, a cylindrical insert protruding under the cover with an internal partition overlapping part of the diameter of the cylinder, and a plug closed inside it with a tongue protruding outward to open, and the inner partition has a hole made in the form of a gear wheel and a recess, one of which has the shape of a half ellipse elongated horizontally, the other half the shape of a stepped rectangular pyramid, and the side surface is cylindrical the inserts on the side of the inner partition are provided with a groove and a groove located below it, and on the opposite side with a slot, while the inner partition is provided with a protrusion located under by the wind. In addition, the central part of the bottom of the tank is concave inward.

Distinctive features of the proposed waste container are the implementation of a removable lid with a flat bottom and a transition corrugation and a flange for fastening, installation in the lower part of the bottom in the center of a cylindrical insert protruding under the lid with an internal partition that overlaps part of the cylinder diameter, and installation of a plug with a protruding outside a tongue for opening, the presence of an opening in the form of a gear wheel and recesses at the inner partition, one of them has the shape of a half ellipse, elongated horizontal, the other half the shape of a stepped rectangular pyramid, supplying the side surface of the cylindrical insert with a groove on the side of the inner partition and the groove underneath, and the slots on the opposite side, supplying the inner partition with the protrusion located under the groove. In addition, the Central part of the bottom of the tank is made concave inward.

Due to the presence of these signs, when collecting contaminated sharp objects, human contact with them is excluded, since when collecting sharp objects, depending on their configuration, they use either a hole or recesses for quick and easy collection of waste (for example, for contactless removal of the needle from the syringe).

The proposed waste container is illustrated by the drawings shown in figures 1-3.

Figure 1 shows a General view of the waste container, a vertical section, with a closed plug without medical waste,

figure 2 is the same, with a closed plug and medical waste;

figure 3 is the same, without a stub;

figure 4 is the same, a top view without a stub.

The waste container, mainly medical, contains a container 1 (Figs. 1, 2, 3), made in the form of a plastic bucket with a neck 2 having a rounding towards its side surface and provided with an annular edge and a protrusion, a removable lid 3 having a flat bottom with transition corrugation and flanging for fastening, in the bottom of the bottom of the removable cover 3, a cylindrical insert 4 protruding under the cover 3 is installed in the center with an internal partition 5 overlapping half the diameter of the cylinder, inside the cylindrical insert 4 ovlena stub 6, to hermetically closing the outwardly extending tab 7 for opening. The inner partition 5 has a hole 8 made in the form of a gear wheel (Fig. 4) for the safe removal of needles from a syringe, a cutting tip from a scalpel, and the like. and recesses 9 and 10, respectively, one of them has the shape of a half ellipse elongated horizontally for blades and other sharp objects, and the other half the shape of a stepped rectangular pyramid to remove the syringe needle from the cannula. The side surface of the cylindrical insert 4 (figure 3) from the side of the inner partition 5 is provided with a groove 11 and a groove 12 located under the groove 11, and a slot 13 located on the opposite side. The inner partition 5 is provided with a protrusion 14 located under the groove 11.

The bottom of the tank 1, its central part (figure 1) is concave inward to give strength and to avoid deformation of the product during transportation and operation.

The waste container, mainly medical, is used as follows.

Before filling the container the tab 7 is removed the cap 6. At _^2/3 volume of container 1 is filled with a disinfectant solution and this solution is lowered contaminated sharps. For example, to remove the needle from the syringe, use a toothed hole 8 or recesses 9 or 10, depending on the size of the needles or a removable blade from the scalpel, for their non-contact removal to avoid industrial injuries and infection at all stages, starting with the collection of sharp and cutting waste and ending with their disposal. After filling the container 1, it is hermetically closed with a plug 6, the plug 6 is turned upside down, the tongue 7 of the plug 6 is inserted into the groove 11 and the groove 12, then the top is pressed onto the bottom of the plug 6 and the tab 7 is installed on the protrusion 14, the medical waste container is closed, then transported for destruction.

Thus, the proposed waste container makes it possible to exclude contact with contaminated pricking and cutting tools of humans and animals, i.e. solves the problem of injuries and transmission of infectious diseases through mechanical contact with the above items.
