Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medicine reminder boxes, specifically a medicine reminder box. Background Technology

[0002] Taking medication on time is crucial for patients with chronic diseases in daily life. Pillboxes are a common aid used to store and remind patients to take their medications. However, existing pillbox designs have some shortcomings in terms of user experience.

[0003] Currently, traditional pillboxes typically use a snap-on design for the compartments, requiring users to press firmly to open them. This design can be difficult for users with limited mobility, such as those with arthritis or hand tremors (e.g., Parkinson's disease patients), who may be unable to open the pillbox independently, thus affecting their ability to take medication on time.

[0004] In addition, existing pillboxes generally lack "anti-accidental touch design," which may lead to children accidentally opening the pillbox and swallowing adult medications, such as antihypertensive drugs and hypoglycemic drugs, potentially causing serious health risks.

[0005] Meanwhile, for elderly people with hearing loss, most pillboxes only offer a "beep reminder" function. In noisy environments, such as when cooking in the kitchen or taking a walk outdoors, this reminder sound can easily be masked, causing the elderly to miss the reminder and thus miss their medication time. Therefore, we propose a medication reminder pillbox. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a medication reminder box that is more user-friendly, safe, and easy to operate, and solves the problem that existing pillbox designs have some shortcomings in terms of user experience.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a medication reminder box, comprising:

[0008] Box body, support block, main control board and locking recess;

[0009] The box has a display screen embedded in the right end of the top, and the top of the display screen has control buttons and a reset button. Flashing LEDs are installed at both the front and rear ends of the top of the box. A retrieval slot is provided at the left end of the top of the box. A cover plate is movably connected to the inside of the retrieval slot via a hinge. A speaker is installed in the middle of the top of the box. A partition is fixed at the lower end of the inner cavity of the box.

[0010] The number of support blocks is four, and the four support blocks are fixed to the bottom of the box. A flat vibration motor is installed on the inner side of the support blocks.

[0011] The main control board is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the box.

[0012] The locking recess is located at the middle of one side of the pick-and-place slot, and a locking slot corresponding to the pick-and-place slot is located at the middle of one side of the cover plate. An electromagnet is installed on one side of the locking recess, and an iron T-shaped positioning plug is slidably connected to one end of the locking recess. A spring is fixed between one side of the iron T-shaped positioning plug and one side of the locking recess.

[0013] Preferably, a drive motor is installed at the middle of the top of the partition, and a mounting base is fixed on the top of the drive motor.

[0014] Preferably, a Y-shaped snap-fit ​​seat is provided in the groove of the placement seat, and a sealed medicine storage cylinder is placed at the upper end of the Y-shaped snap-fit ​​seat, and a sealing cap is threaded to one end of the sealed medicine storage cylinder.

[0015] Preferably, a connecting sleeve is fixed to the right side of the box body, and a T-shaped screw connector is threaded to the inner side of the connecting sleeve. A rope loop is provided at one end of the T-shaped screw connector.

[0018] Preferably, the aforementioned.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] 1. This utility model uses an electromagnetic lock to replace the traditional mechanical buckle, which automatically unlocks when reminded. Users only need to press lightly to open it, which greatly reduces the requirements for the user's hand strength and dexterity. It perfectly solves the problem of opening the box for patients with arthritis, those with weak or trembling hands, such as Parkinson's patients, enabling them to take their medication independently with dignity.

[0021] 2. This utility model cannot be opened by simply pressing or shaking without authorization. The reset button must be pressed to unlock it, which fundamentally eliminates the risk of children accidentally opening and ingesting medication out of curiosity. The system will only unlock at the set medication time and needs to be manually reset after taking the medication. This "one-time opening" mechanism forcibly forms a closed loop of operation, effectively avoiding the danger of users taking the same medication repeatedly or forgetting to take it due to memory confusion.

[0022] 3. This utility model integrates three reminder methods: visual flashing light beads, auditory speaker and tactile flat vibration motor. It ensures that even if the user's hearing or vision is deteriorating, they can reliably receive the medication information through at least one method in different environments such as a noisy kitchen, a quiet bedroom, or outdoor activities, which greatly reduces the probability of missing a dose due to not noticing the reminder.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a medication reminder box, comprising:

[0034] Box body 1, support block 3, main control board 5 and locking recess 6;

[0035] The box body 1 has a display screen 101 embedded at the top right end, and the top of the display screen 101 is equipped with a control button 102 and a reset button 103. Flashing LEDs 104 are installed at both the front and rear ends of the top of the box body 1. The box body 1 has a take-up slot 110 at the top left end, and a cover plate 105 is movably connected to the inside of the take-up slot 110 via a hinge. A speaker 106 is installed at the middle of the top of the box body 1, and a partition 108 is fixed at the lower end of the inner cavity of the box body 1.

[0036] Among them, there are four support blocks 3, which are fixed to the bottom of the box 1. A flat vibration motor 301 is installed on the inner side of the support block 3.

[0037] The main control board 5 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the box 1.

[0038] The locking recess 6 is located at the middle of one side of the take-up slot 110, and a locking slot 604 corresponding to the take-up slot 110 is located at the middle of one side of the cover plate 105. An electromagnet 601 is installed on one side of the locking recess 6, and an iron T-shaped positioning plug 603 is slidably connected to one end of the locking recess 6. A spring 602 is fixed between one side of the iron T-shaped positioning plug 603 and one side of the locking recess 6.

[0039] The top of the main control board 5 has a time module 501, a processor module 502 and a battery module 503, and one end of the iron T-shaped positioning plug 603 is adapted to the locking slot 604.

[0040] This technical solution: Open the cover plate 105, place the sealed medicine storage cylinder containing the medicine on the Y-shaped snap-fit ​​seat 401 of the placement seat 4, and tighten the sealing cover. Set the daily medication time, dosage and other information through the control button 102 and the display screen 101. After setting, close the cover plate 105. At this time, the iron T-shaped positioning plug 603 is inserted into the locking slot 604 under the action of the spring 602, and the cover plate 105 is automatically locked.

[0041] Reminders and medication collection process:

[0042] Active reminder: When the time module 501 reaches the preset medication time, it sends a signal to the processor module 502. The processor module 502 immediately activates the multi-reminder system: the flashing LED 104 emits a flashing light, the speaker 106 emits a reminder sound, the flat vibration motor 301 causes the entire pillbox to vibrate, and at the same time, the display screen 101 displays the medication information.

[0043] Safe unlocking: After receiving the reminder, the user finds the medicine box and presses the reset button 103. After receiving the reset signal, the processor module 502 actively reminds the system to stop working and immediately powers on the electromagnet 601. The electromagnet 601 generates magnetic force, attracting the iron T-shaped positioning plug 603, causing it to compress the spring 602 and retract into the locking recess 6. Its front end then exits from the locking slot 604. At this time, the cover 105 is unlocked, and the user can easily lift the cover 105, take out the sealed medicine container, and pour out the medicine to take (the sealed medicine container can ensure that the medicine is in a sealed state and ensure the efficacy of the medicine). Put the medicine container back in its original place and close the cover 105.

[0044] Method 1: Press the reset button 103 again. After receiving the signal, the processor module 502 cuts off the power to the electromagnet 601. The electromagnet 601 loses its magnetism. The restoring force of the spring 602 pushes the iron T-shaped positioning plug 603 outward. Its front end automatically inserts into the locking slot 604 on the cover plate 105 to complete the locking.

[0045] Method 2: If the user forgets to manually reset the cover 105 after closing it (the cover 105 will automatically close under the influence of gravity when no one is holding it), the processor module 502 will automatically cut off the power to the electromagnet 601 after a set period of time, such as ten minutes. Similarly, the automatic locking is completed under the action of the spring 602. This design provides fault tolerance and ensures that the safe locking is foolproof.

[0046] Through the above steps, the pillbox achieves intelligent and secure management of the entire process from reminder, unlocking, medication dispensing to relocking, greatly improving user compliance and medication safety.

[0047] Example 2

[0048] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-6 As shown, a drive motor 109 is installed at the middle of the top of the partition 108. A placement seat 4 is fixed on the top of the drive motor 109. A Y-shaped snap-fit ​​seat 401 is provided in the groove of the placement seat 4. A sealed medicine storage cylinder is placed at the upper end of the Y-shaped snap-fit ​​seat 401. A sealing cap is threaded to one end of the sealed medicine storage cylinder.

[0049] This technical solution: While the processor module 502 starts the multiple reminder system, the processor module 502 controls the drive motor 109 to rotate, rotating the corresponding medicine cartridge on the placement seat 4 to the underside of the retrieval slot 110. The sealed medicine cartridge that has been rotated into position is taken out from the Y-shaped card holder 401, the sealing cap is unscrewed, and the dose of medicine for this time can be poured out and taken. Users do not need to fumble in the medicine box to find it. They can directly take it by opening the cover 105. This design is especially convenient for visually impaired users and reflects a high degree of humanistic consideration.

[0050] Example 3

[0051] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-6 As shown, a connecting sleeve 107 is fixed on the right side of the box body 1. A T-shaped screw connector 201 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the connecting sleeve 107. A rope loop 2 is provided at one end of the T-shaped screw connector 201.

[0052] This technical solution: By setting the rope loop 2, the portability of this medicine box is further improved, making it convenient for users to carry with them and ensuring that they do not miss the time to take their medicine when they are out. If not needed, the T-shaped screw connector 201 can be unscrewed out of the connecting sleeve 107 to achieve disassembly.
