There are various containers known for being used in the deposit of hospital and laboratory waste, ranging from the red bag which gives no assurance as it is sensitive to punctures and tears; other types include stainless Steel pails and plastic bags that do not have a secure protocol for the handling of the waste. Containers for needles and scalpels can also be found that are neither tight nor do they give any security, leaving them vulnerable to accidents and breakages as well as danger from handeling by unscrupulous people that open them to reuse the contaminated items before, during and after being transported to the site where they will be professionally treated or incinerated. These are some of the patents on the technique that do not solve the problem ES 2033006(T3) AND MXPA02010053 (A)
The technical statement has made suggestions over the changes that must be made with these systems so as not permit that the materials may be subject to manipulation before reaching their final treatment destination.
The main objective of this invention is to safeguard the health of society preventing that discarded items that have been infected with pathogenic, biological, and pathological substances to be placed again on the market or thrown anywhere exposing the population to infections by unscrupulous people that easily evade using conventional containers.
Another objective of this invention is to facilitate sterilization before use to avoid contaminating hospital areas and once closed, allow for sterilization before being incinerated thus avoiding contamination.
Another objective of this invention is to not allow any leakage of solid or liquid waste out of the container as it has different sealing systems.
Another objective is the construction of a container for waste that easily fit into one another when empty as well as for power supported one above the other being charged and capped. Additionally, this invention presents a new breakthrough in environmental protection, protecting the environment from substances hazardous to human health and because the container is made of environmentally friendly materials.
Airtight Container for Pathogen Waste, is a rigid deposit to be used in clinics, hospitals, laboratories, mortuaries, veterinary clinics, drug stores, funeral homes, and hairdressers to collect medical, pollutants and infectious wastes their once the operation is performed it proceeds to close the container with its respective seal that for their respective closing does not allow the container to open again unless broken or destroyed. This container does not have right angles, it only has curved corners that prevent the accumulation of pollutant factors in the corners as would happen at a right angle; this ensures the safety in its handling at all stages of use since it is produced, stored, sterilized, used and transported to its final destination. It is also a Green container and easy to move, store and easy to operate; it is made of polyolefin additive das.
To further clarify the invention and its advantages compared with the known technique, below is the system is described with the help of the annexed drawings, with possible models used as examples of the application of these principles in the drawings.
