[0069] The home reminder medicine box 1000 and the medicine box management system according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0070] Embodiment 1

[0071] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown;

[0072] The home reminder medicine box 1000 provided according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a box body 10, and also comprises a main control device 20 arranged on the surface of the box body 10, wherein the main control device 20 comprises a microprocessor 201, a medicine taking time setting module 202 for setting a medicine taking time, a medicine taking reminder module 203 for outputting an alarm signal to remind taking medicine when the preset medicine taking time is reached, and an alarm elimination module 204 for eliminating the alarm;

[0073] The medicine taking time setting module 202 , the medicine taking reminder module 203 and the alarm elimination module 204 are all connected to the microprocessor 201 .

[0074] Based on the above, it can be clearly seen that when the present application is implemented, it is mainly used as a household reminder medicine box 1000.

[0075] Specifically, when applying the present application, the patient stores the medicines to be used in the box body 10, and operates the medicine taking time setting module 202 to set the time for each medicine taking according to the dosage of each medicine in the medicine instructions or the doctor's advice. Then, when the corresponding medicine taking time is reached, the medicine taking reminder module 203 will output an alarm signal to remind the patient to take the medicine. Before and after the patient takes the medicine, he can operate the alarm elimination module 204 to eliminate the current alarm. In this way, the patient can easily use the present application.

[0076] Among them, the set medicine taking time setting module 202 can be a medicine taking time setting button, the set medicine taking reminder module 203 can be a timer alarm, a voice alarm or an audible and visual alarm, and the set alarm cancellation module 204 can be an alarm cancellation button.

[0077] When the medicine-taking reminder module 203 is a voice alarm, it can output a voice message such as "It is time to take the medicine, please use it as soon as possible" for reminder.

[0078] Obviously, the use of the above-mentioned application will have the following technical effects:

[0079] On the one hand, the household reminder medicine box 1000 provided in the present application not only has the function of storing medicine, but also has the function of setting the time for taking medicine and reminding to take medicine when the time for taking medicine is reached, making it a dual-purpose device with comprehensive functions.

[0080] On the other hand, when the corresponding time for taking medicine is reached, the medicine reminder module 203 will continue to output an alarm signal to remind the patient to take medicine. Before or after the patient takes the medicine, he or she can control the alarm elimination module 204 to eliminate the current alarm. In this way, the present application can better remind the patient to take medicine, making the reminder effect very reliable.

[0081] Furthermore, through the above-mentioned optimized design, the overall structure of the present application is highly practical and has good use effect.

[0082] Further, in a specific implementation, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the main control device 20 further includes a drug information storage reading module 205 for reading drug information, a drug information storage module 206 for storing the read drug information, and a display module 207 for displaying the read drug information;

[0083] The drug information storage module 205 , the drug information storage module 206 and the display module 207 are all connected to the microprocessor 201 .

[0084] Furthermore, in the technical solution, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the drug information includes the drug name, dosage, total storage quantity of the drug, production batch number and expiration date of the drug.

[0085] Therefore, it can be clearly seen that when the present application is actually used, the box body 10 can be large enough to store more types of drugs. For each stored drug, the drug information storage reading module 205 is used to read and identify the text content of the medicine box to be stored, and the drug name, dosage, total storage quantity, production batch number and expiration date of the relevant drug can be entered. The drug name, dosage, total storage quantity, production batch number and expiration date of the relevant drug can be stored through the drug information storage module 206 and can be displayed through the display module 207.

[0086] In this way, the patients or their family members who use the present application can know at a glance what medicines are stored in the box body 10, what is the dosage of the relevant medicines needed each time, how many medicines are stored in total, what is the production batch number, and what is the expiration date, so that they can have a clear idea. In addition, they can also know which conventional household medicines are not stored, such as whether the commonly used stomach medicines, fire-reducing medicines, anti-inflammatory medicines, cold medicines, skin medicines, antipyretic medicines, quick-acting heart-saving pills, etc. are fully stocked, so that they can know clearly.

[0087] Therefore, through the above-mentioned optimized design, the overall use effect of the present application can be effectively improved.

[0088] Furthermore, in a specific implementation, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the main control device 20 further includes a drug usage quantity counting module 208 for inputting the drug usage quantity, a drug cumulative usage quantity calculating module 209 for calculating the cumulative drug usage quantity, and a drug remaining quantity calculating module 210 for calculating the remaining drug quantity;

[0089] The drug usage quantity counting module 208, the drug cumulative usage quantity calculating module 209 and the drug remaining quantity calculating module 210 are all connected to the microprocessor 201; the remaining quantity of the drug is set as Q, the total storage quantity of the drug is set as M, the cumulative usage quantity of the drug is set as N, and Q=MN;

[0090] The display module 207 is also used to display the cumulative usage quantity N and the remaining quantity Q of the drug.

[0091] In this regard, it is clear that when a patient uses a certain drug, for example, the total storage quantity M of the relevant drug is 15 pills, 2 pills are needed each time, and it is planned to be used 6 times, then, each time it is used, the quantity of the relevant drug used is input as 2 pills through the drug usage quantity counting module 208. Thereafter, when it is used for the second time, the quantity of the relevant drug used is input as 2 pills through the drug usage quantity counting module 208. At this time, the set drug cumulative usage quantity calculation module 209 can calculate the cumulative usage quantity N of the relevant drug as 4 pills. Similarly, when the relevant drug is used 6 times cumulatively, the set drug cumulative usage quantity calculation module 209 can calculate the cumulative usage quantity N of the relevant drug as 12 pills, and the set drug remainder calculation module 210 can calculate the remaining quantity Q of the relevant drug as 3 pills. For the relevant drug, its cumulative usage quantity N and the remaining quantity Q will be displayed through the display module 207.

[0092] In this way, on the one hand, for a certain drug, its cumulative usage quantity N and remaining quantity Q will be displayed through the display module 207, making it clear at a glance, so that the patient can know his medication situation and have a clear idea of ​​it. On the other hand, when the remaining quantity Q of the relevant drug is very small, it will be displayed through the display module 207, so that the patient can know it in time, so as to make timely replenishment to meet unexpected needs.

[0093] Moreover, in the present technical solution, the drug usage quantity counting module 208 may be a counting button, by which the name and usage quantity of the relevant drug are input, and then the cumulative drug usage quantity can be calculated through the drug cumulative usage quantity calculation module 209, and then the remaining drug quantity can be calculated through the drug remaining quantity calculation module 210, which are related to each other.

[0094] Therefore, through the above-mentioned optimized design, the overall use effect of the present application can be further improved.

[0095] Furthermore, in a specific implementation, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the main control device 20 also includes a drug replenishment reminder module 211 for outputting an alarm signal to remind timely replenishment of the drug to the box body 10 when the remaining quantity Q of the drug is lower than a preset value; the drug replenishment reminder module 211 is connected to the microprocessor 201.

[0096] Among them, the preset value can be flexibly set, such as being set to 3 pills or 3 bags, etc. When the patient does not look at the display module 207, when the remaining quantity Q of a certain drug is lower than the preset value, the drug replenishment reminder module 211 will output an alarm signal to remind the patient to replenish the relevant drugs into the box body 10 in time.

[0097] In this way, the present application is made more reliable to use. In addition to having the function of storing medicine and reminding people to take medicine when the time for taking a certain medicine has been reached, it also has a medicine replenishment reminder function that reminds people when the remaining quantity of a certain medicine is lower than a preset value. This makes the present application multi-functional and more comprehensive.

[0098] Therefore, through the above-mentioned optimized design, the overall use effect of the present application can be further improved.

[0099] In this embodiment, the drug replenishment reminder module 211 can be a voice alarm or an audible and visual alarm. When the drug replenishment reminder module 211 is a voice alarm, it can output relevant voice reminders such as "The remaining dosage of a certain drug is insufficient, please replenish it in time."

[0100] In addition, in a specific implementation, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the main control device 20 further includes a drug expiration time calculation module 212 for calculating the expiration time of the drug according to the production batch number and the validity period of the drug, and a drug expiration alarm module 213 for outputting an alarm signal when the drug usage time reaches the expiration time;

[0101] Among them, the drug expiration time calculation module 212 and the drug expiration alarm module 213 are both connected to the microprocessor 201; the display module 207 is also used to display the expiration time of the drug, and the drug expiration alarm module 213 can be a voice alarm or an audible and visual alarm.

[0102] When the drug expiration alarm module 213 is a voice alarm, it can output a voice message such as "a certain drug has reached its expiration date, please do not continue to use it" for reminder.

[0103] In this regard, it can be clearly stated that when the present application is actually used, the drug information storage reading module 205 is set to read and identify the text content of the medicine box of the medicine to be stored, and after entering the drug name, dosage, total storage quantity, production batch number and expiration date of the relevant drug, the drug expiration time calculation module 212 is set to calculate the drug expiration time according to the production batch number and expiration date of the drug, and then, when the drug usage time reaches the expiration time, the drug expiration alarm module 213 is set to output an alarm signal to remind the patient that the relevant drug has reached the expiration time and please do not continue to use it, so that the patient can know in time and discard the relevant drug to avoid continuing to take it and causing life safety hazards.

[0104] Therefore, in addition to the function of storing medicines, the function of reminding patients to take medicines when the time for taking a certain medicine has been reached, and the function of providing a reminder for drug replenishment when the remaining quantity of a certain medicine is lower than a preset value, the present application also has a function of providing a drug expiration alarm reminder when a certain medicine has reached its expiration time, making the present application more integrated and multi-purpose with better usage functions.

[0105] It should be added that, in a specific implementation, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the main control device 20 further includes a rechargeable battery 214 for powering the microprocessor 201 ; the rechargeable battery 214 is connected to the microprocessor 201 .

[0106] Therefore, it can be clearly seen that the rechargeable battery 214 provided in the present application provides power for the microprocessor 201 and other components, thereby eliminating the need for an external power source of electrical connection wires, making the present application convenient and easy to use.

[0107] Preferably, in the present technical solution, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the main control device 20 also includes a charging interface 215 for charging the rechargeable battery 214; the charging interface 215 is connected to the rechargeable battery 214 via a charging protection circuit 216, and the charging protection circuit 216 is connected to the microprocessor 201.

[0108] Moreover, in a specific implementation, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the main control device 20 also includes a battery power detection circuit 217 for detecting the power level of the rechargeable battery 214; the battery power detection circuit 217 is connected between the rechargeable battery 214 and the microprocessor 201; and the display module 207 is also used to display the power level of the rechargeable battery 214.

[0109] Therefore, it is clear that by providing the charging interface 215 , the rechargeable battery 214 of the main control device 20 of the present application can be charged from time to time using an external charging device.

[0110] Moreover, the power level of the rechargeable battery 214 can be displayed in real time through the display module 207, so that the patient can know the power level of the rechargeable battery 214 in real time, and can charge it in time when knowing that the rechargeable battery 214 is low on power, so that the present application can be used uninterruptedly.
