[0048] like Figure 1-20 The medicine box shown includes a main body 1, a medicine tray 2, a base 3, and a top cover 4.

[0049] The main body 1 has a circular partition 101, which divides the main body 1 into two cavities, an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The partition 101 has a medicine dispensing hole 102; a fixing part 103 is located in the middle of the partition 101. The base 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main body 1, and the top cover 4 is circular and fixedly connected to the fixing part 103 of the main body 1. The medicine tray 2 is disc-shaped and has multiple perforated holes 201. The medicine tray 2 is fitted onto the fixing part 103 of the main body 1 and is located in the upper cavity of the main body 1. The perforated holes 201 of the medicine tray 2 and the partition 101 of the main body 1 enclose a medicine placement cavity 202 for placing medicine. In this embodiment, there are eighteen medicine placement cavities 202, each marked with a corresponding number, "1 to 18", to facilitate the location and identification of the placed medicine. For greater environmental protection, a medicine box 5 is placed inside the medicine placement cavity 202, and the pills are placed inside the medicine box 5. A baffle 104 is provided at the dispensing hole 102, and a rack 105 is provided on the baffle 104. The output shaft of the third motor 106 is connected to the transmission gear 107. The transmission gear 107 meshes with the rack 105 on the baffle 104 to achieve transmission, thereby allowing the baffle 104 to close or open the dispensing hole 102. The first motor 7 is connected to the medicine tray 2, so that the first motor 7 drives the medicine tray 2 to rotate, thereby bringing the medicine from different medicine placement chambers 202 to the dispensing hole 102. Then the baffle 104 is removed, and the medicine falls down to achieve precise medicine dispensing.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first motor 7 is connected to the medicine tray 2 via gear transmission. Specifically, the first motor 7 is fixed on the fixing part 103 of the main body 1, and the output shaft of the first motor 7 is fixedly connected to the pinion 9. The fixing part 103 has a through hole for the pinion 9 to protrude. The medicine tray 2 is provided with a large gear 10, so that the pinion 9 passes through the through hole and meshes with the large gear 10 of the medicine tray 2 to realize the transmission connection between the first motor 7 and the medicine tray 2. The gear transmission between the first motor 7 and the medicine tray 2 makes the rotation more stable and facilitates precise control of the rotation position of the medicine tray 2.

[0051] In this embodiment, the top cover 4 and the main body 1 are locked by a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism includes a connector 11, a first limiting member 12, and a second motor 8. The connector 11 is fixedly connected to the top cover 4 and has a first slot 13. The output shaft of the second motor 8 is fixedly connected to the first limiting member 12, so that the second motor 8 drives the first limiting member 12 to rotate and be fixed in place by the first slot 13 in the connector 11, thereby locking the top cover 4. With this setting, the top cover 4 cannot be opened in the locked state, protecting the medicine inside the medicine box and preventing children from accidentally taking the medicine. When the first limiting member 12 is not in the first slot 13, the top cover 4 can be opened and taken out, making it convenient to add medicine to the medicine tray 2. In this embodiment, the connector 11 also has a second limiting member 14, and the top cover 4 has a second slot 15. The connector 11 is connected to the second slot 15 of the top cover 4 through the second limiting member 14.

[0052] To facilitate medication dispensing, a medicine box compartment 6 is provided in the lower cavity of the main body 1. The medicine box compartment 6 is located below the medicine dispensing hole 102 of the partition 101. The medicine box compartment 6 is pluggable to the main body 1 and can be pulled out from the main body 1 for easy medication dispensing. A micro switch 16 is provided inside the main body 1 and is fixed on the base 3. When the medicine box compartment 6 is inserted into the main body 1, the medicine box compartment 6 is in close contact with the micro switch 16. When the medicine box compartment 6 is pulled out, the medicine box compartment 6 separates from the micro switch 16. Based on the contact status between the medicine box compartment 6 and the micro switch 16, the number of times medication is dispensed can be monitored, which facilitates reminders to users about the time and frequency of medication administration.

[0053] The lower cavity of the main body 1 also houses a battery 17, a Deepseek AI chat module 18, a buzzer, a speaker, and a motherboard 22. The battery 17, Deepseek AI chat module 18, and motherboard 22 are respectively fixed to the base 3. The battery 17 is electrically connected to the motherboard 22, the Deepseek AI chat module 18 is electrically connected to the motherboard 22, and the buzzer and speaker are respectively electrically connected to the motherboard 22. The battery 17 powers the entire device. When the battery level is low (e.g., below 15%), the buzzer will sound an alarm. The Deepseek AI chat module 18 is used for intelligent dialogue, and the speaker is used for voice reminders and AI dialogue regarding medication administration times. The base 3 has a USB interface 19, which is electrically connected to the motherboard 22. In this embodiment, an SOS emergency button 20 and a control board 21 are also fixed to the fixing part 103 of the main body 1. The SOS emergency button 20 is located at the top of the fixing part 103, and the top cover 4 has a through hole for the SOS emergency button 20 to pass through, facilitating emergency calls for help. The control board 21 is electrically connected to the SOS emergency button 20, the control board 21 is electrically connected to the main board 22, and the control board 21 is also electrically connected to the first motor 7 and the second motor 8 respectively.

[0054] The working process of this medicine box is as follows: The second motor 8 is started, and the top cover 4 is unlocked through the locking mechanism. The top cover 4 is opened, and different medicine packs 5 are placed in the medicine compartments 202 as needed, matching them with their corresponding serial numbers. The second motor 8 is started again, and the top cover 4 is locked closed through the locking mechanism. At this time, the top cover 4 cannot be opened, ensuring the safety of the medicine placement. When using the medicine, the first motor 7 is started, and the first motor 7 drives the medicine compartment 2 to rotate through gears, rotating the medicine compartment 202 of the corresponding serial number to the medicine dispensing hole 102. The third motor 107 is started, and the baffle 104 is moved, causing the medicine pack 5 in the medicine compartment 202 to fall from the medicine dispensing hole 102 into the medicine box compartment 6. The medicine box compartment 6 is pulled out, and the medicine pack 5 is taken out for use. After use, the medicine pack 5 is put back into the main body 1 to reset. Pulling out and putting back the medicine box compartment 6 will trigger the micro switch 16 twice, recording the completion of one medicine retrieval. After the medication is administered, the first motor 7 starts, driving the medicine tray 2 to rotate and return to its initial position, making it convenient for the next medication administration.
