Flake and capsular drug feeder for people suffering from upper limb disability and using method of feeder

Abstract

The invention discloses a flake and capsular drug feeder for people suffering from upper limb disability and a using method of the feeder. The flake and capsular drug feeder mainly comprises a cup body, a drug delivery mechanism, a driving device and a drug delivery pipe, a drug feeding nozzle and a sucking nozzle are installed on one side of the cup body, and the driving device is buried at the bottom of the cup body; water is injected into a cavity of the cup body, the drug delivery mechanism is arranged on the axis of the cup body, the drug delivery mechanism is driven by the driving device to rotate to deliver an appropriate number of drugs into the drug delivery pipe, the feeder is grabbed by a manipulator in a teaching-playback working mode, or a recipient comes close to the feeder by himself / herself, and drug feeding is achieved through the sucking nozzle and the drug feeding nozzle. Accordingly, all kinds of people suffering from the upper limb disability can be effectively assisted in taking the flake and capsular drugs by themselves, recipients whose legs and feet can move can select the drugs in the drug feeder to take by themselves, and the problem that a specially-assigned person is needed for assisting the people suffering from the upper limb disability in taking the drugs each time can be avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of application of devices for helping the elderly and the disabled, and furthermore relates to a feeder and a using method thereof which can smoothly enable the recipient to swallow tablet-shaped and capsule-shaped medicines. Background technique [0002] At present, there are some research results on manipulators for assisting the elderly and the disabled, mostly using human-computer interactive control methods with partial intelligent perception (such as voice recognition, image recognition, object positioning, etc.). However, the current manipulators for helping the elderly and the disabled use more conventional eating tools, such as spoons, chopsticks or forks, etc., which brings a lot of inconvenience to the eating work. Different, the operation methods required in the process of feeding the recipients will vary greatly, and it is difficult to accurately pick up and feed various forms of food with conventional to...

However, the current manipulators for helping the elderly and the disabled use more conventional eating tools, such as spoons, chopsticks or forks, etc., which brings a lot of inconvenience to the eating work. Different, the operation methods required in the process of feeding the recipients will vary greatly, and it is difficult to accurately pick up and feed various forms of food with conventional tools; second, it is easy to spill feeding items during transportation; third, During the operation, it is necessary to continuously issue various instructions to pick up different types of items and feed them into the recipient's mouth.
