The present invention relates to the field of needle hub separator and particularly relates to an automated needle hub separation system.

Prior art to the invention:
A patent document with application number “IN202311020865”, titled “A smart agricultural system using IoT”, describes, “The invention relates to a smart agricultural system using IOT. The objective of this project is to offer assistance to farmers in getting Live Data (Temperature, Humidity, Soil Moisture, and Soil Temperature) for efficient environment monitoring which will enable them to increase their overall yield and quality of products. This smart agriculture using IoT system powered by NodeMCU consists of a DHT11 sensor, Moisture sensor, DS18B20 Sensor Probe, LDR, Water Pump, and 12V led strip. When the IoT-based agriculture monitoring system starts, it checks the Soil moisture, temperature, humidity, and soil temperature. It then sends this data to the IoT cloud for live monitoring. If the soil moisture goes below a certain level, it automatically starts the water pump”.

wherein, the present invention is an automated needle hub separation system.

Summary of the invention:
It is an aspects of the present disclosure, an automated needle hub separation system.

Detailed description:
The following specification particularly describes the invention and the manner in which it is to be performed.

The present invention discloses about an automated needle hub separation system. The system operates based on the thermal softening behavior of thermoplastic materials, specifically polypropylene used in syringe hubs. A cartridge heater is inserted into a machined metal heating block, which acts as the primary heat source and provides localized, controlled heating. The metal block serves as a thermal conduction medium, ensuring uniform heat transfer to the syringe hub region for effective softening. A K-type thermocouple is positioned close to the heating zone to provide accurate temperature sensing. Temperature is regulated using a dial thermostat temperature controller, which maintains the operating range of 180–220 °C and provides automatic cut-off once the preset temperature is reached, preventing overheating. A stainless-steel syringe holding fixture is designed to precisely align the syringe hub with the heating surface, ensuring efficient heat transfer. , Claims:Claims:

1) We claim,
An automated needle hub separation system, comprising of; a hub reaches the softening temperature, the polypropylene material loses mechanical strength, reducing the bonding force between the hub and the stainless-steel needle;
wherein, the needle separates naturally under gravitational force and drops into a puncture-proof metal collection tray, while the softened plastic hub falls into a separate heat-resistant tray; and
wherein, the system incorporates thermal insulation and safety shielding to reduce heat loss, maintain temperature stability, and ensure operator safety.
