In various embodiments, the liquid 155 is, for example, a variety of beverages that are available for the user to drink, such as boiled water, coffee or tea, and the like. The weight sensing unit 120 connects the carrier 110 and senses a change in weight of the container 150. The weight sensing unit 120 may be a micro electronic scale, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The processor 130 is coupled to the weight sensing unit 120 and detects the volume change of the liquid 155 according to the weight change of the container 150, and records the time point at which the volume change occurs. Thereby, the amount of consumption of the user can be recorded. The processor 130 is, for example, a central processing unit, a microprocessor, a microcontroller, a digital signal processor, a baseband processor, a special application integrated circuit, or the like.

In an embodiment, when the carrying portion 110 carries the container 150, the processor 130 may record the first weight value, and when the container 150 leaves the carrying portion 110, the processor 130 temporarily stops recording the detected by the weight sensing unit 120. Weight, and recording the second weight value when the carrying portion 110 carries the container 150 again, and calculating the volume change of the liquid 155 based on the first weight value and the second weight value Chemical. In an embodiment, when the weight detected by the weight sensing unit 120 is 0, this means that the object 110 does not temporarily carry any object, and the processor 130 can temporarily stop recording the weight sensing unit accordingly. 120 detected weight, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

By the difference between the first weight value and the second weight value (i.e., the weight reduced by the liquid 155), the processor 130 can correspondingly calculate the reduced volume of the liquid 155. For example, assuming that the liquid 155 is water, when the second weight value is reduced by 200 grams from the first weight value, the processor 130 can push the volume of the liquid 155 by 200 ml, and the volume change and its occurrence The time point is recorded.

In an embodiment, the processor 130 may accumulate the foregoing volume change to the total amount of change, and determine whether the total amount of change reaches the target amount at the preset time point, if otherwise, an alert signal is issued.

For example, if the preset time point is 10:00 in the morning and the corresponding target amount is, for example, 600 ml, the processor 130 can judge whether the total change amount reaches 600 ml at 10:00 in the morning, that is, judge the use. Whether the total amount of drinking at 10 o'clock in the morning reaches 600 ml. If not, the processor 130 can issue a reminder signal (such as a voice reminder or a flashing reminder, etc.) to remind the user to drink water immediately. For another example, if the preset time point is 8:00 pm and the corresponding target amount is, for example, 2500 milliliters, the processor 130 At 8 o'clock in the evening, it can be judged whether the total amount of change reaches 2500 ml, that is, whether the total consumption of the user at 8:00 pm reaches 2500 ml. If not, the processor 130 can issue a reminder signal (such as a voice reminder or a flashing reminder, etc.) to remind the user to drink water immediately.

In other embodiments, when the second weight value is greater than the first weight value, this means that the user may have filled more liquid 155 in the container 150, so the processor 130 may directly ignore the first weight value and the first The difference between the two weight values and replacing the first weight value with the second weight value as a new calculation basis.

In one embodiment, the processor 130 can reset the total amount of change daily to more accurately grasp the daily consumption of the user. For example, the processor 130 may reset the total change amount at 12 o'clock every day, four o'clock in the morning, or other time points selected by the designer, that is, the total change amount is zeroed, but the present invention is not limited to this. Thereby, the daily consumption of the user can be grasped.

In addition, since the general user should not take the container 150 too frequently, the processor 130 can also detect the volume change of the liquid 155 every predetermined time (for example, 5 minutes). Thereby, the processor 130 can be prevented from recording the short-term weight change caused by the volume change of the non-liquid 155, for example, the weight change caused by the container 150 being shaken by the user's accidental touch, or because the user temporarily puts the hand. The weight change or the like caused on the container 150, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
