Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intelligent medicine box technology, and in particular to a novel intelligent medicine box. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, its integration with healthcare has become deeply ingrained in people's minds. Simultaneously, with the continuous maturation and application of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology, combined with modern science and technology such as computer technology, internet communication technology, and automation technology, various intelligent medical products are emerging, expanding the market size, and gradually changing people's production and daily life. As the pursuit of technological products continues to increase, people are no longer satisfied with the basic functions achieved by such products, often demanding higher levels of intelligence and user-friendliness.

[0003] With the rapid development of medicine, people are increasingly aware of the importance of health. Especially in this fast-paced era, young people are often busy with work, while the elderly experience age-related memory decline, making it easy to forget to take medication, overdose, or even take the wrong medication when sick. A large proportion of patients suffer from poor medication adherence, failing to follow doctor's orders, and not taking medication on time and in the correct dosage. Therefore, designing a smart medicine cabinet that can accurately locate medications for different users and has reminder functions is crucial.

[0004] Many smart medicine cabinets on the market use internet technology, combining mobile apps and smart hardware to remind users to take their medications on time and in a scientific manner. Essentially, however, they are simply traditional medicine cabinets with added smart reminders. They still suffer from storage clutter and don't solve the problems of incorrect or missed doses for the elderly. In terms of basic functionality, they are often inferior to traditional medicine cabinets with added reminders. Furthermore, in an effort to emphasize their "smart" features, many have become overly complicated and cumbersome, making them unsuitable for the elderly.

[0005] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of existing technologies, it is necessary to design a new type of intelligent medicine box to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0013] The preferred technical solution is that each medicine compartment has a hook at the bottom that corresponds to both ends of the top plate.

[0014] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the lifting drive assembly adopts a telescopic electric cylinder, the telescopic electric cylinder is fixed in the medicine box, and the telescopic end of the telescopic electric cylinder is hinged to one side of the bottom end of the scissor structure.

[0015] A preferred technical solution is that the medicine box is provided with a medicine dispensing port corresponding to the medicine dispensing area, and the medicine dispensing port is equipped with an openable and closable movable door assembly.

[0016] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the movable door assembly consists of a movable door drive motor, a movable door drive gear, a rack, a movable door, a slide rail assembly, and two sets of limit switches. The slide rail assembly is located on the upper and lower sides of the medicine dispensing port. The movable door slides within the slide rail assembly. The rack is fixed to the upper inner side of the movable door along the guiding direction of the slide rail assembly. The movable door drive motor is fixed inside the medicine box and is used to drive the movable door drive gear to rotate. The movable door drive gear meshes with the rack. The two sets of limit switches are fixed inside the medicine box and are respectively set to correspond to the open and closed positions of the movable door.

[0017] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the medicine box is equipped with a light source and a camera, the light source is used for illuminating the medicine dispensing area inside the medicine box, and the camera is used for identifying medicine information.

[0018] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the medicine box is equipped with a scanning unit and a display unit, the scanning unit is used to input medicine information, and the display unit is used to display the medicine management system.
