Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of anesthetic storage, specifically a smart medicine box and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] The narcotic and psychotropic drug kit plays an important role in medical safety management. As a core management tool in the clinical use of narcotic and psychotropic drugs, its level of intelligence and rationality of structural design have a decisive impact on medication safety, the consistency of accounts and materials, and management efficiency. Especially in the environment of multi-tasking and high-paced operation in the operating room, the existing narcotic and psychotropic drug management methods are gradually revealing their limitations in dealing with the real needs of a wide variety of drugs, high frequency of use, and strict traceability of responsibility.

[0003] Specifically, existing portable narcotic and psychotropic drug boxes rely on mechanical locks or buckles for sealing, requiring manual opening. This lack of manual identification of operators allows multiple people to access the drugs at will, making it difficult to determine responsibility. Furthermore, the lack of automatic identification of drug packaging codes means that drug entry and exit information cannot be automatically recorded, relying on manual bookkeeping, which easily leads to omissions, errors, and over-recording, causing discrepancies between records and physical inventory and affecting drug regulatory compliance. The sealed doors require manual opening and closing and cannot be linked with an identity verification module for automatic opening after successful verification, making operation inconvenient and the management process incomplete. The boxes lack drug retrieval monitoring devices, making it impossible to determine whether the retrieval action corresponds to the correct drug location, lacking a real-time monitoring and confirmation mechanism for drug retrieval behavior. In addition, if the sealed door is not closed for an extended period after opening, the existing equipment lacks an automatic closing function; if the operator is negligent, drugs can easily be exposed, posing safety hazards such as accidental retrieval, loss, or cross-contamination.

[0004] The above problems directly lead to a decrease in drug management efficiency, an increase in operational complexity, and make it difficult to meet the management needs of medical institutions for highly safe, highly accurate, and fully traceable narcotic and psychotropic drugs. More seriously, they not only increase management risks but may also pose a potential threat to patient medication safety and the overall standardization of hospital pharmacy management.

[0005] To address the problems raised in the background art, those skilled in the art have proposed an intelligent medicine box and its usage method. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides an intelligent medicine box and its usage method. This addresses the issues raised by existing equipment, which relies on mechanical locks and manual operation, lacks identification and automatic recording functions, makes it impossible to monitor medication retrieval, and lacks an automatic closing mechanism after opening. This leads to errors such as mis-retrieval, omissions, and unclear responsibilities, failing to meet the requirements for high security and traceability management, and posing safety hazards.

[0015] Preferably, an opening and closing mechanism is provided on one side of the housing, the opening and closing mechanism includes a mounting box, a fixing seat is provided on one side of the mounting box, and one side of the fixing seat is fixedly connected to one side of the adjacent sealing door. One side of the mounting box is fixedly connected to one side of the adjacent housing. Track grooves are provided on both sides of the top of the inner cavity of the mounting box. A force-bearing rod is provided in the inner cavity of the mounting box. A gear two is sleeved on the outer ring of the force-bearing rod, and a long rod is provided above the force-bearing rod. A gear one is sleeved on the outer ring of the long rod.

[0018] A method for using a smart medicine box includes the following steps:

[0019] The manager places the anesthetic drug packaging bottle into the inner cavity of the placement mechanism. The drug passes through the through hole of the connecting seat and is placed firmly in the conical bracket. At the same time, the coding scanner inside the shell automatically scans the code on the drug bottle and sends the drug location binding information to the microcontroller through the wireless transmission module to complete the warehousing registration.

[0020] The operator performs identity verification on the face and fingerprint verification module. After the microcontroller body verifies the authorization, it controls the servo motor to start. The servo motor drives the force rod to rotate. Gear two meshes with gear one to drive the long rod to rotate. The support rod slides in the track groove and pushes the sealing door to flip up and open.

[0021] During the medication retrieval process, the infrared monitoring module detects the displacement changes of the corresponding medication inside the casing, confirms the medication retrieval action, and uploads the medication retrieval signal along with the medication code to the microcontroller to achieve automatic registration of the outbound record. At the same time, it recognizes the image of the operator captured by the camera and binds the person-medicine-time information.

[0022] If the sealed door is open for more than the set time and the NFC range sensing module does not detect the authorized wristband signal, the microcontroller controls the servo motor to run in reverse, driving the support rod to move in the opposite direction, so that the sealed door will close automatically.

[0023] When the internal space layout needs to be adjusted, manually pull the limit rod to disengage the locking hole from the rod, move it horizontally to the target groove position, and then press down to re-engage the locking hole. The two side vertical plates, the inner wall of the box and the partition plate form a new partition area.

[0024] The refrigeration unit operates continuously to maintain a suitable low-temperature environment inside the box. The battery compartment is powered by a charging port or a wireless charging coil module. The positioning module uploads the location information of the medicine box in real time, enabling full traceability management.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] 1. This invention replaces traditional mechanical locks with a facial and fingerprint verification module and a microcontroller for collaborative control, enabling identity recognition and access management to prevent unauthorized access by multiple people. Combined with an encoding scanner and infrared monitoring module within the placement mechanism, it automatically records medicine entry and exit information, reducing manual accounting errors and improving the accuracy of records. A servo motor drives the opening and closing mechanism, automatically opening the sealed door after verification and automatically closing it when no one is present for an extended period, enhancing operational convenience and security. The infrared monitoring module monitors the medicine retrieval location in real time, ensuring traceability. An NFC range sensing module detects the presence of personnel, preventing the risk of prolonged opening. The partitioning mechanism allows for flexible space adjustment via limit rods, latches, and vertical plates. The refrigeration unit maintains the medicine storage temperature. The battery mechanism supports wired and wireless charging, improving power supply convenience. The positioning module enables real-time tracking of the medicine box.

[0027] 2. This invention utilizes a force-bearing rod and a second gear within the mounting box. A long rod meshes with a first gear for transmission. The two ends of a support rod are connected to the long rod and a fixed seat, respectively. The end of the support rod slides along a track groove on the mounting box. During operation, a servo motor drives the force-bearing rod to rotate, which in turn drives the long rod to rotate synchronously through the gear meshing. This, in turn, drives the support rod to push the fixed seat along the track groove, causing the sealing door to smoothly open and close. This structure achieves automatic opening and closing of the sealing door, with a stable and reliable transmission process and controllable movement trajectory, avoiding jamming or deviation. Simultaneously, the structure is compact, integrated into one side of the housing, saving space. Mechanical linkage enables dual-point support opening, resulting in uniform force distribution and improved stability and durability of the sealing door's opening and closing, effectively ensuring the safety of equipment use and the continuity of automated operation.

[0028] 3. This invention features a through-hole in the connecting seat, with a conical bracket connected to its bottom and fixed to the outer shell. Simultaneously, a magnetic pad at the bottom of the outer shell magnetically connects to the metal holding plate. During operation, the medicine bottle passes through the through-hole and its bottom falls into the conical bracket, achieving axial positioning and bottom support to prevent the bottle from shaking or tipping. The connecting seat provides limiting and guiding for the middle section of the bottle, improving placement stability. The magnetic pad allows for quick installation, disassembly, and position adjustment of the placement mechanism, facilitating cleaning, maintenance, or rearrangement. This structure achieves multi-point stable fixation of the medicine bottle, providing both shock absorption and anti-tipping functions. Furthermore, the magnetic connection method enhances modularity and flexibility, effectively improving the safety and ease of management of medicine storage. Attached Figure Description

[0039] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention.

[0040] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 9 As shown:

[0041] Example 1: The present invention provides a smart medicine box, including a box body 1. A metal holding plate 11 is provided in the lower part of the inner cavity of the box body 1, and a refrigeration device body 2 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the box body 1. A battery mechanism 3 is provided at the bottom of the refrigeration device body 2. The battery mechanism 3 includes a battery compartment body 301. The top of the battery compartment body 301 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the refrigeration device body 2. A microcontroller body 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the box body 1, and a face and fingerprint verification module 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the microcontroller body 5. A positioning module 6 and an NFC range sensing module 7 are fixedly connected to one side of the box body 1 respectively. A partition mechanism 13 is provided in the inner cavity of the box body 1 and above the metal holding plate 11.

[0042] The partition mechanism 13 includes a partition 1301. The bottom of the partition 1301 is fixedly connected to the top of the metal holding plate 11. Several grooves 1302 are provided on the top of the partition 1301 and along the horizontal direction of the partition 1301. A locking rod 1303 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the groove 1302. Several limiting rods 1305 are provided above the partition 1301. The top of the limiting rod 1305 is provided with a locking hole 1306 that matches the locking rod 1303. Vertical plates 1304 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the limiting rod 1305.

[0043] The top of the metal holding plate 11 is provided with several placement mechanisms 12, and each placement mechanism 12 includes a housing 1201. An infrared monitoring module 1206 is fixedly connected to one side of the housing 1201, and a connecting seat 1202 is provided on the upper part of the inner cavity of the housing 1201.

[0044] A magnetic pad 1203 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer shell 1201. The bottom of the magnetic pad 1203 is magnetically connected to the top of the metal holding plate 11. The outer wall of the connecting seat 1202 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the adjacent outer shell 1201, and a through hole 1204 is opened at the bottom of the inner cavity of the connecting seat 1202.

[0045] As described above, the first step involves the management personnel placing the anesthetic drug packaging bottles sequentially into the various placement mechanisms 12 inside the box 1. When the packaging bottle is placed into the inner cavity of the outer shell 1201, the pre-set coding scanner inside the outer shell 1201 automatically scans the coding information on the bottle and transmits the coding data to the microcontroller 5 via a wireless transmission module for storage, thus achieving automatic registration of drug entry information. Subsequently, the bottle passes through the through hole 1204 on the connecting seat 1202, and its bottom is stably placed in the inner cavity of the conical bracket 1205, ensuring stable placement and uniform position. When the clinical staff needs to retrieve the drug, the operator first verifies their identity information using the facial fingerprint verification module 4 on the outside of the box 1, and the microcontroller 5 receives the data. Upon receiving the verification signal and confirming authorization, a start command is sent to the servo motor 1009. The servo motor 1009 drives the force rod 1006 to rotate. The gear 1008 on the force rod 1006 meshes with the gear 1007 through a snap ring, thereby driving the long rod 1005 to rotate. The two support rods 1003 on the outer ring of the long rod 1005 slide and rotate within the track groove 1004 of the mounting box 1001, pushing the fixed seat 1002 to cause the sealing door 8 to flip upward and open, realizing the automatic opening of the inner cavity of the box 1. During the medicine retrieval process, if the operator takes medicine from a certain outer shell 1201, the infrared monitoring module 1206 inside the outer shell 1201 can detect the change in the displacement of the medicine and confirm the retrieval. When the medication is dispensed, the information, along with the previously registered medication code, is transmitted to the microcontroller 5, which automatically records the medication's dispensing time, quantity, and status. Simultaneously, the identification camera 9 on the sealed door 8 captures the operator's image, recording the specific person responsible for dispensing the medication, thus achieving triple information binding between person, medication, and time. During use, staff wear a dedicated wristband integrated with an NFC chip. The NFC range sensing module 7 continuously monitors the wristband signal within a three-meter radius of the cabinet 1. If the sealed door 8 is open for more than a set time, such as three minutes, and the NFC range sensing module 7 does not detect an authorized wristband signal, it is determined to be in an unattended state, and the microcontroller 5 then controls the servo motor 1009 to reverse direction. The rotation, through the gear transmission structure, drives the support rod 1003 to move in the opposite direction, so that the sealing door 8 closes automatically to prevent the medicine from being exposed for a long time; when it is necessary to adjust the internal space layout of the box 1, the operator can manually pull the limit rod 1305 upward, so that the bottom locking hole 1306 disengages from the locking rod 1303 in the groove 1302, and at the same time, it drives the two vertical plates 1304 to disengage from the contact surface. Then, according to the actual quantity and specifications of the medicine, the limit rod 1305 is moved horizontally to another set of grooves 1302 and pressed down, so that the locking hole 1306 re-engages with the locking rod 1303. The two vertical plates 1304, together with the inner wall of the box 1 and the partition 1301, form a new partition area, which facilitates the flexible arrangement of multiple placement mechanisms 12;During drug storage, the refrigeration unit 2 operates continuously. Cold air enters the inner cavity of the cabinet 1 through corresponding ventilation ducts and diffuses evenly within the cavity, ensuring a constant low-temperature environment suitable for drug preservation in the upper part of the cabinet 1. The entire system is powered by the battery compartment 301, which can be wired via the charging port 302 or wirelessly charged via the wireless charging coil module 303, ensuring continuous power supply for the equipment in mobile and emergency scenarios. In addition, the positioning module 6 collects the location information of the cabinet 1 in real time, facilitating the tracking and management of the medicine box within the hospital to prevent loss or misplacement. The inner wall of the cabinet 1 is equipped with... Several power connector modules that can power the infrared monitoring module 1206 allow personnel to decide whether to use the wired or wireless version of the infrared monitoring module 1206 depending on the actual usage. Several placement mechanisms 12 can form a unit, and a unit consists of 5 to 10 placement mechanisms 12. A switch door is rotatably connected to one side of the mounting box 1001. A lock body is installed on the switch door. The switch door and the lock body allow personnel to retrieve the anesthetic inside the medicine box using a mechanical key in emergency situations, such as when there are no medical personnel with facial and fingerprint recognition records present or when there is a problem with the power supply.

[0046] This solution employs a facial and fingerprint verification module 4 and a microcontroller 5 for collaborative control, replacing traditional mechanical locks or buckles. This achieves accurate identification and access management of operators, avoiding issues such as multiple people taking medications at will and unclear responsibilities. Through the encoding scanner and infrared monitoring module 1206 installed within the placement mechanism 12, combined with the data processing capabilities of the microcontroller 5, automatic identification of medicines entering the warehouse and automatic recording of medicines leaving the warehouse are achieved. This significantly reduces the risks of omissions, errors, and over-recording caused by manual bookkeeping, improving the consistency between accounts and physical inventory and regulatory compliance. It also enables the automatic opening of the sealed door 8 after identity verification and automatic closing in unattended situations, solving the problems of inconvenient manual opening and closing and non-closed-loop processes, improving operational convenience and security. The infrared monitoring module 1206 can monitor the status of medicines in each placement mechanism 12 in real time, accurately determining whether the medication retrieval action occurs at the corresponding medicine location, thus achieving real-time monitoring of medication retrieval actions. To ensure full-process monitoring and confirmation, the traceability of management is enhanced; the NFC range sensing module 7, in conjunction with the microcontroller body 5, realizes the automatic closing function after timeout, effectively preventing the exposure, accidental removal, or loss of medicines due to operational negligence, and improving the safety of use; the limiting rod 1305, locking rod 1303, locking hole 1306 and vertical plate 1304 in the partition mechanism 13 form an adjustable partition structure, which can flexibly adjust the internal space layout according to actual needs, overcoming the defects of fixed partitions and poor adaptability of traditional medicine boxes; the battery mechanism 3 simultaneously supports wired charging port 302 and wireless charging coil module 303, improving power supply flexibility and equipment availability; the positioning module 6 enables real-time tracking of the medicine box position, effectively preventing the risk of equipment loss. The overall structural design is reasonable, the functional integration is high, and it significantly improves the safety, management efficiency and intelligence level of narcotic and psychotropic drugs in clinical use.

[0049] One of the output ends of the battery compartment body 301 is fixedly connected to a charging port 302. A wireless charging coil module 303 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the battery compartment body 301. The output end of the wireless charging coil module 303 is fixedly connected to another output end of the adjacent battery compartment body 301. Rubber feet 304 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the battery compartment body 301.

[0050] The outer wall of the metal holding plate 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the adjacent box 1.

[0051] An opening and closing mechanism 10 is provided on one side of the housing 1. The opening and closing mechanism 10 includes a mounting box 1001. A fixing seat 1002 is provided on one side of the mounting box 1001, and one side of the fixing seat 1002 is fixedly connected to one side of the adjacent sealing door 8. One side of the mounting box 1001 is fixedly connected to one side of the adjacent housing 1. Track grooves 1004 are provided on both sides of the top of the inner cavity of the mounting box 1001. A force-bearing rod 1006 is provided in the inner cavity of the mounting box 1001. A gear 1008 is sleeved on the outer ring of the force-bearing rod 1006. A long rod 1005 is provided above the force-bearing rod 1006. A gear 1007 is sleeved on the outer ring of the long rod 1005.

One end of the support rod 1003 passes through the adjacent track groove 1004 and is fixedly connected to one side of the sealing door 8.

[0052] As can be seen from the above, through the magnetic connection between the magnetic pad 1203 at the bottom of the outer shell 1201 and the top of the metal holding plate 11, and the fixed connection between the connecting seat 1202 and the inner wall of the outer shell 1201 and the setting of the through hole 1204, the placement mechanism 12 can be stably adsorbed on the metal holding plate 11 during the working process, which is convenient for quick installation and disassembly. At the same time, the connecting seat 1202 limits and guides the medicine bottle to prevent shaking, thus achieving the effects of stable installation of the placement mechanism 12, accurate positioning of medicine, and convenient maintenance and replacement. Through the conical bracket 1205 fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting seat 1202, and the setting of the inner cavity of the conical bracket 1205 communicating with the through hole 1204 and the inner cavity of the outer shell 1201, the bottom of the medicine packaging bottle falls smoothly into the conical bracket 1205 after insertion during the working process, realizing bottom positioning and buffer support, avoiding the bottle tilting or collision, and achieving the effects of stable placement of medicine, anti-tipping, and shock absorption protection. Through the fixed connection between the two sides of the partition 1301 and the inner wall of the box 1, the medicine packaging bottle falls smoothly into the conical bracket 1205, realizing bottom positioning and buffer support, avoiding the bottle tilting or collision, thus achieving the effects of stable placement of medicine, anti-tipping, and shock absorption protection. The vertical plate 1304 is attached to the side wall of the partition 1301, the top of the metal holding plate 11, and the inner wall of the box 1. During the working process, when the limiting rod 1305 moves the vertical plate 1304 and engages with different grooves 1302, the vertical plate 1304 and the inner wall of the box 1 are tightly attached to form a closed partition area, which achieves the effects of stable partition structure, good sealing, clear space division, and prevention of cross-positioning of medicines. The battery compartment body 301 is connected to the charging port 302 through the output end, a wireless charging coil module 303 is set at the bottom and connected to another output end of the battery compartment body 301, and rubber feet 304 are set at the four corners of the bottom. During the working process, wired charging can be performed through the charging port 302, and non-contact charging can be achieved through the wireless charging coil module 303, ensuring continuous power supply. The rubber feet 304 enhance the anti-slip and shock absorption performance of the bottom, achieving the effects of flexible power supply, strong equipment endurance, stable placement, and protection of the battery mechanism 3.

[0053] Example 3: This example is basically the same as the previous example, except that the outer ring of gear 1007 and the outer ring of gear 2 1008 are connected by meshing teeth, a recognition camera 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the sealing door 8, and the two ends of the long rod 1005 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the adjacent mounting box 1001 by rotating shafts.

[0054] One end of the force-bearing rod 1006 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the adjacent mounting box 1001 via a rotating shaft.

In the working process, the servo motor 1009 drives the force-bearing rod 1006 to rotate, which drives the long rod 1005 to rotate through gear meshing, thereby driving the support rod 1003 to move along the track groove 1004, realizing the sealing door 8. The smooth opening and closing mechanism achieves stable operation, reliable transmission, compact structure, and high automation. Gear 1007 and Gear 2 1008 are connected via a meshing mechanism. A recognition camera 9 is installed on the sealing door 8. The long rod 1005 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting box 1001 at both ends via rotating shafts. During operation, the gear transmission stably transmits power, and the long rod 1005 rotates without axial displacement, ensuring accurate movement of the support rod 1003. Simultaneously, the recognition camera 9 maintains a stable shooting angle, achieving high transmission precision and smooth operation. The system achieves smooth operation, good synchronization of the opening and closing of the sealed door 8, and clear monitoring. One end of the force-bearing rod 1006 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting box 1001 via a rotating shaft.

The sealed door 8 is positioned so that one side is flush against the side of the housing 1. During operation, the servo motor 1009 directly drives the force-bearing rod 1006 to rotate, resulting in a short power transmission path and rapid response. After closing, the sealed door 8 fits tightly against the housing 1, preventing cold air leakage and external interference, thus achieving the desired effect. The system features fast response, good sealing, low energy consumption, and precise control. By connecting the input terminals of the face and fingerprint verification module 4, positioning module 6, NFC range sensing module 7, and the cooling equipment body 2 to the output terminal of the microcontroller body 5 via cables, the microcontroller body 5 acts as the central control unit in the workflow. It receives signals from each module and issues control commands, realizing integrated management of identity verification, location tracking, environmental monitoring, and equipment control. This achieves high system integration, smooth information interaction, clear control logic, and coordinated overall operation.
