Abstract

The present invention relates to a device for automatically alarming a medication time. The device has a plurality of storing boxes on one surface, which are discharged from a case to store each medicine to be taken depending on dates (days) and a medication time. The storing boxes have a first storing box which is hooked from the case while being discharged, and a second storing box and a preliminary storing box which are stored in the first storing box to be taken out. The device is formed to inform the medicines stored in the storing boxes to a medicine taker depending on the time with voice. Accordingly, even though the medicine taker forgets the medication time, the present invention allows the medicine taker to take the medicines by informing a predetermined time for taking the medicines. When storing the medicines in the second storing box for medication, the second storing box can be discharged from the first storing box for taking the medicines stored in the second storing box, and thus even an old person can easily take the medicines which is individually stored.

Description

Medication time automatic notification device

The present invention relates to an automatic medication time reminder, and more particularly, even if the user forgot to take the medicine and stored for a date (day of the week) and taking the time and take the medicine taking time can take the medicine at a predetermined time The present invention relates to an automatic notification device for medication time so as to facilitate the withdrawal of stored medicines.

In general, oral medicines are prescribed and prepared by a doctor for the treatment or prevention of a disease and are provided to a patient.

In addition, even if you are not a patient to take health supplements, etc. for the purpose of continuous health maintenance may be taken on a fixed date and time.

These medications, when taken by the user, differ in the process and time that they are broken down and absorbed by the human body due to their respective components or effects on the body. .

Furthermore, it is important to follow the taking rules and the like, because among the various kinds of medicines, if the taking time or the taking cycle is not kept, it may adversely affect the taker.

Therefore, a technology has been developed that allows the user to take a medicine without omission by giving a notification at a predetermined time of taking the medicine.

The device that informs the time of taking the medicine is a medicine aid that helps to take the medicine periodically without omission and duplication, which is generally built in or external to the drug storage container for storing the medicine, and the time of taking the medicine periodically and Memory unit for storing whether or not the user taking the medicine during the cycle and the period of taking the medicine, the input and output unit for sending and receiving the medicine taking time and cycle information to the outside, the medicine taking the medicine to take the medicine A detection unit that detects a change in physical quantity occurring at a contact or a sensor by an action of holding the container by hand, and a medicine user considers the medicine to be taken based on the change in the physical quantity detected by the detection unit, The control unit for storing the facts and also controls the respective parts and the medicine taking time And a warning alarm to generate a notification alert to the user taking the medicine when the medicine is taken, and to repeat the warning periodically for a predetermined time until the medicine is recorded in case that the medicine is not recorded in the memory even after a time elapses. The change in physical quantity sensed by the detector is an impedance change or a weak human body electric signal, and the detector includes an impedance change or human body signal detecting means and at least one contact point connected thereto, and the medicine holder stores the medicine. Detecting a change in impedance or weak human electrical signal generated when the container is held, or the physical quantity detected by the detector is generated by rotating or opening the lid of the medicine container. As a physical shock, vibration or pressure, The detection unit for detecting the detection is a piezoelectric element sensor, or the change in the physical quantity detected by the detection unit is a change in inclination caused by the operation of rotating or opening the lid of the drug storage container, the detection unit for detecting this comprises a tilt sensor It is.

However, the conventional medicine taking aid periodically taking is only a primary alarm caused by various alarm generators, if the user does not detect the alarm, there is a problem that can not take the medicine at a predetermined time.

In view of this, Patent Application No. 10-2016-0001908 has been published a drug taking notification device.

Looking at the conventional general medicine taking notification device is made in the form of a box, the support partition is provided with a plurality of loading spaces are formed, the storage compartment is provided with a movable partition for partitioning each of the loading spaces and , And is formed to extend out of the storage box, and displays the date and day of the loading space, displays the morning, lunch and dinner of the space, a timer indicating the current time, and a time corresponding to the space. And a display unit including a time setting unit which can be set respectively, and a notification unit which notifies when the time of the timer and the time setting unit is coincident, and the medicine is loaded in the space through the time setting unit corresponding to the space. It is configured to notify the user when the set time matches the current time of the timer. The.

However, the conventional general medicine taking notification device configured as described above is configured to notify the taking time only for morning, lunch, and evening medicines as described above, so that other medicines can be taken before meals or before bedtime. There is no function to keep a separate medication to tell you because you have to store and take other medication separately, there is a problem that you have to forget about taking time.

In addition, the conventional conventional medicine taking notification device, there is a problem that it is difficult to withdraw because there is no separate handle portion in the storage box for storing each dose of the medicine.

In addition, the above-described conventional general medicine taking notification device has a disadvantage that it is difficult to take the medicine from the storage box, especially in the case of the elderly when taking the medicine to be taken in a single (grain) to take the date and time.
