Sharps Bin

thingiverse

This innovative sharps bin, designed for use in developing nations, aids in curbing the spread of bloodborne pathogens via shared needles. It features an affordable, reproducible design that allows medical facilities to dispose of used needles safely. The two-piece construction consists of the main bin and an insert that prevents needle extraction. Design elements include an angled top for easy printing, a sloped bottom to maximize needle storage space, and finger-like projections on the insert that flex for easier use. Print sharps_bin_insert.stl with support material only, remove the support, then snap it into the container's hole for optimal functionality.
