The drug-carrying reminder module 43 has a distance threshold built therein, and when the distance represented by the distance data is greater than the distance threshold, the mobile device 900 is driven to generate a drug-carrying reminder message. The group 43 is also triggered by the drug reminder signal to drive the mobile device 900 to generate the drug reminder message. The battery warning module 44 can be triggered by the low battery warning signal to drive the mobile device 900 to generate a low battery warning message.

In this embodiment, the medication reminding message and the low battery warning message may be an alert light, a warning sound, and/or a warning image, and the alert sound may be an alarm sound, music, or voice.

The search module 45 can display a search interface (not shown) on the screen of the mobile device 900, and can drive the mobile device 900 to send a search signal to the smart medication container 3 when the search interface is operated. The wireless communication module 32 can receive the search signal, and the micro processing unit 336 can be triggered by the search signal to drive the alert unit 333 to send a location prompt message for the user to know its location, such as warning light and/or The sound is alerted to facilitate the user to quickly find the smart medicine container 3.

When the smart drug-carrying reminder system of the present invention is used, the mobile device 900 equipped with the drug-carrying monitoring software 4 can be paired with a plurality of smart drug containers 3, and the user can dispense the drugs into the paired connected wisdom. In the drug container 3. In general, the user usually carries the mobile device 900 to the body. Once the drug monitoring software 4 monitors that the mobile device 900 is more than a predetermined distance threshold from the smart drug container 3, The mobile device 900 is actively driven to generate the drug reminding message, thereby reminding the user to return to take the smart drug container 3. In addition, when the smart medicine container 3 analyzes and determines that the distance from the mobile device 900 exceeds a preset distance threshold, in addition to sending a drug reminding message, the drug carrying reminder signal is also sent to drive the The drug monitoring software 4 controls the mobile device 900 to synchronously generate the drug carrying reminder message, which can achieve the two-way reminding function.

However, when implemented, the smart medicine container 3 does not need to send the medicine reminding signal, and may only generate the medicine reminding message by itself, or is designed not to generate the medicine reminding message itself, but will send the medicine reminding reminder. The signal is given to the mobile device 900.

When the user can not find the smart medicine container 3 at a time, the search interface displayed by the mobile device 900 can be operated to issue the search signal, thereby driving the smart medicine container 3 to generate the position indication message, and guiding the user to quickly find the Smart Medicine Container 3.

During the use of the smart medicine container 3, the smart medicine container 3 automatically detects the residual power of the power supply 34, and sends the low battery warning message when the residual power is lower than the predetermined power threshold. The low battery warning signal causes the drug monitoring software 4 to drive the mobile device 900 to generate the low battery warning message, thereby reminding the user to prepare to replace the battery or to charge the smart drug container 3.

In summary, through the design of the smart medicine container 3 and the drug-carrying monitoring software 4, once the smart medicine container 3 containing the medicine is away from the mobile device 900 carried by the user, or the wisdom When the drug container 3 is insufficient in power, the drug monitoring software 4 will drive the mobile device 900 to generate the drug carrying reminder message and the low battery warning message, and the smart drug container 3 itself will also generate the drug carrying reminder message and the low The power warning message can effectively remind the user to carry the medicine with him, and can immediately charge or replace the smart medicine container 3. When the user can not find the smart medicine container 3 at a time, the medicine monitoring software 4 can be operated to drive the mobile device 900 to send a search signal to the smart medicine container 3, and trigger the smart medicine container 3 to generate the position indication message. It can help users find drugs quickly. It is quite convenient and practical. It is an innovative drug-carrying design. Therefore, the object of the present invention can be achieved.

The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, that is, the simple equivalent changes and modifications made by the patent application scope and patent specification content of the present invention, All remain within the scope of the invention patent.
