ABSTRACT:
A closure for permanently closing a syringe collection and disposal container provides additional protection against injury or accidental contamination from used needles which have been collected and are awaiting disposal. A wheel-shaped cover is used to open and close an access opening in the top of the container. After the container is full, the wheel is rotated to a closed and locked position. The closure comprises a boss formed on the inboard side of the wheel which drops into an aperture formed in the container in the closed and locked position, thereby restraining further movement of the wheel and preventing the container from being reopened.
