[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for aspirating blood and other body fluids and secretions that need to be discarded at a medical site, or liquid waste such as pus or physiological saline used for cleaning an affected area. The present invention relates to a liquid waste treatment apparatus for coagulating and discarding.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In medical practice, liquid waste such as blood and other body fluids and secretions that need to be discarded, particularly during surgical operations, or pus or saline used for cleaning affected areas, It is collected in containers and collection bags by a suction machine and disposed of by incineration.

However, such liquid waste may contain harmful bacteria and the like, and the container and the collection bag may be damaged, or the liquid waste may be sucked in more than the capacity of the collection bag. In such a case, the liquid waste may leak to the outside and cause secondary infection to medical staff, hospitalized patients, and the like.

[0004] In order to prevent this, there is a device that arranges a water-absorbing material in a collection bag and solidifies liquid waste.
As a method of disposing a water-absorbing material that solidifies the liquid waste in the collection bag, a non-permeable sheet and a water-absorbent sheet are attached to each other, and a collection bag is formed such that the water-absorbent sheet is on the inner side, There are a type in which a water-absorbing material prepared after the liquid waste is sucked into the collection bag is dropped, and a type in which the water-absorbent material is fixed to the bottom of the collection bag.

[0007] Further, the processing apparatus formed by laminating a water-impermeable sheet and a water-absorbing sheet has a multi-layer structure, so that the inside becomes invisible and hard to fold, which is inconvenient for storing and transporting.

Further, in a processing apparatus provided with a water-absorbing material to be dropped after sucking liquid waste into a collection bag, coagulation does not occur until the water-absorbing material is dropped. Anxiety remained, and it was not possible to perform additional suction after coagulation.

[0009] Further, in the processing apparatus in which the water-absorbing material is fixed to the bottom of the collection bag, there is a problem that the coagulation rate decreases as the suction of the liquid waste proceeds.

[0010] The present invention is to solve the above problems,
The aim is to provide a multiple-type liquid waste treatment system that can easily recognize the contents even if the liquid waste collection and processing capacity is increased, and can solidify the sucked liquid waste more quickly. To provide.

In addition, various holding means are conceivable, such as fixing the water-absorbing material 6 with a filler that dissolves in water, holding the water-absorbing material 6 with a non-woven paper or non-woven fabric that decomposes with water.

In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the float 5 is accommodated in the liner L having flexibility has been described. However, the float 5 is accommodated in a container having no flexibility, and It is also possible to apply.

[0079]

As described above, the present invention has the above-described structure and operation, so that even if the collection and processing capacity of the liquid waste is increased, the contents of the liquid waste can be easily recognized, and the sucked liquid waste can be solidified more quickly. Can be done.

That is, since the canister bottles are arranged in a straight line in the order of the nth (n ≧ 3) canister bottles from the first canister bottle, all canister bottles can be seen from one direction, and the liquid waste can be discarded. Since the objects are stored in the order of the first canister bottle to the n-th canister bottle in the arrangement order of the canister bottles, the user of the processing apparatus can easily check how much storage capacity is left. I can do it.

Further, the canister bottle is connected to an outer container,
When the liquid waste is contained in the outer container and has an inner bag having a coagulant inside, the liquid waste is coagulated in the inner bag, and the entire inner bag can be disposed of. It can be a processing device.

When the inner bag of the canister bottle has a specific gravity of less than 1 and a float holding the coagulant inside, the float is always maintained at a position floating on the gas-liquid interface. By checking the position of the float, the position of the liquid surface can be checked from outside, and the user can surely check the use state of the canister bottle and the remaining allowable capacity.

Further, when the liquid waste is sucked, the float having a specific gravity smaller than 1 is always located at the gas-liquid interface of the liquid waste. The material can be diffused, and the solidification of the liquid waste can be performed quickly and effectively.

Further, even when the suction is stopped once and the suction is performed again, the coagulation can be rapidly advanced, and since the float is always at the gas-liquid interface, the level gauge as the level gauge indicating the internal capacity can be obtained. It can also have functions. Further, the manufacturing cost is low due to the simple structure.
