Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medicine storage, in particular to an automatic pill dispenser. Background Art
[0002] Due to genetics, irregular lifestyles, unhealthy diets, and other reasons, some people suffer from diseases and need to take medicine regularly. Normal people take medicine according to the doctor's instructions, but for some people with dyscalculia or Alzheimer's disease, taking medicine alone without the company of others is a very dangerous thing, because they cannot count clearly and cannot grasp the dosage when taking medicine. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to provide an automatic pill dispenser.
[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the following technical solutions are adopted:
[0005] An automatic pill dispenser includes a funnel-shaped medicine storage bin and a drive assembly, wherein the medicine storage bin has a bin door covering it, and the drive assembly includes a shell, wherein the shell has a distribution chamber, wherein the distribution chamber has an inlet connected to the medicine storage bin and an outlet arranged on one side of the shell, wherein a push rod is arranged in the shell and a motor is arranged on one side of the shell to drive the push rod to push the pills in the distribution chamber toward the outlet, wherein under normal conditions, the push rod is blocked at the intersection of the inlet and the medicine storage bin, and the motor is connected to a control circuit, and the control circuit is used to control the motor drive at a timing.
[0006] Furthermore, a push block is provided at the front end of the push rod, and the push block protrudes from the push rod.
[0007] Furthermore, the front end of the push rod forms a semicircular concave shape.
[0008] Furthermore, the upper surface of the push rod is provided with teeth, the driving end of the motor is provided with a gear meshing with the teeth, and the height of the push block is higher than the teeth.
[0009] By adopting the above scheme, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0010] Based on the medicine storage bin, dispensing chamber, push rod and motor, patients do not need to calculate the number of pills they take by themselves. The number of times the motor drives the push rod forward is the number of pills they take at a time. This can prevent intellectually disabled patients from taking too much medicine and causing health risks.
[0011] The utility model has a simple structure, low cost and is easy to carry. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of a container according to an embodiment of the present utility model.
[0014] The accompanying drawings illustrate:
[0015] 1. Medicine storage bin; 11. Bin door; 21. Shell; 211. Inlet; 212. Outlet; 22. Push rod; 221. Gears; 222. Push block; 23. Motor; 24. Control circuit; 25. Gear. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] Typical embodiments that embody the features and advantages of the present invention will be described in detail in the following description. It should be understood that the present invention can have various changes in different embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention, and the descriptions and illustrations therein are essentially for illustrative purposes rather than for limiting the present invention.
[0017] like Figure 1-2 As shown, an automatic pill dispenser includes a funnel-shaped medicine storage bin 1 and a driving assembly, wherein the medicine storage bin 1 has a bin door 11 covering it, and the driving assembly includes a shell 21, wherein the shell 21 has a dispensing chamber, wherein the dispensing chamber has an inlet 211 communicating with the medicine storage bin 1 and an outlet 212 arranged on one side of the shell 21, wherein a push rod 22 is arranged in the shell 21 and a motor 23 is arranged on one side of the shell 21 for driving the push rod 22 to push the pills in the dispensing chamber to the outlet 212, wherein under normal conditions, the push rod 22 is blocked at the intersection of the inlet 211 and the medicine storage bin 1, and the motor 23 is connected to a control circuit 24, and the control circuit 24 is used for timing control of the driving of the motor 23.
[0018] The front end of the push rod 22 is provided with a push block 222, and the push block 222 protrudes from the push rod 22. The push block 222 can ensure that the pills can be fully pushed out to the outlet 212.
[0019] The front end of the push rod 22 is formed into a semicircular concave shape, which matches the general shape of a pill and can better push out the pill.
[0020] The upper surface of the push rod 22 is provided with teeth 221, and the driving end of the motor 23 is provided with a gear 25 meshing with the teeth 221, and the height of the push block 222 is higher than the teeth 221. Based on the protruding push block 222, when the driving push rod 22 is retracted, after the gear 25 contacts the push block 222, the push block 222 cannot move further, thereby preventing the push rod 22 from continuing to retreat and damaging the housing 21.
[0021] Working principle:
[0022] Before use, the control circuit 24 is set, which can be a wireless model such as Bluetooth, WIFI, etc. for interactive communication, so that the control circuit 24 is started regularly. When the motor 23 is started, it drives the gear 25 to rotate, and the push rod 22 moves backward, so that the pills in the discharge channel of the medicine storage bin 1 fall in front of the push block 222, and then the motor 23 reverses, and the push rod 22 moves forward to push the pills out of the housing 21.
[0023] Beneficial effects:
[0024] Based on the medicine storage bin 1, the dispensing chamber, the push rod 22 and the motor 23, the patient does not need to calculate the number of medicines to be taken by himself. The number of times the motor 23 drives the push rod 22 forward is the number of medicines to be taken at a time, thereby preventing the mentally retarded patient from taking too much medicine and causing health risks;
[0025] The utility model has a simple structure, low cost and is easy to carry.
[0026] Although the present disclosure has been described with reference to several typical embodiments, it should be understood that the terms used are illustrative and exemplary, rather than restrictive. Since the present disclosure can be implemented in a variety of forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the utility model, it should be understood that the above-mentioned embodiments are not limited to any of the foregoing details, but should be widely interpreted within the spirit and scope defined by the appended claims, so all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the appended claims.
