Description

Pill Distributor according to user selection The present invention relates to a pill dispenser based on user selection. The planning for the production of a pill dispenser stemmed from the inconvenience I experienced while taking pills on a daily basis. As someone who needs to consistently take nutritional supplements, I found the process of finding and taking various types of pills every day to be inconvenient. Typically, when taking multiple supplements or medications, organizing different pills and selecting only the necessary ones each day is not only time-consuming but also cumbersome. Consequently, it often becomes difficult to take pills on time, such as in the morning or at a fixed time. Furthermore, amidst a busy daily life, it was common to forget to take pills at the scheduled time. Nutritional supplements and medications are most effective when taken at specific times or before and after meals. However, as time passes, it is easy to forget to take them, and this problem is difficult to resolve unless a consistent habit is established. In this regard, a device that automatically dispenses pills and notifies the user of the intake time becomes necessary. Furthermore, there was a need for efficient storage and management in addition to the inconvenience of taking pills. The method of taking each pill individually is not only cumbersome, but also makes it difficult to check the expiration dates or storage conditions of individual pills when they are stored mixed together. Based on these considerations, we devised a device that facilitates more convenient consumption by using a pill dispenser to easily sort the pills to be taken and automatically dispensing them at scheduled times. This dispenser goes beyond simply dividing and storing pills; it helps users take their medication without missing doses by automatically dispensing pills at scheduled times and providing notifications. With just the press of a button, the required dosage is dispensed, and reminders at set intervals ensure that users do not forget to take their doses. This system is particularly useful for people who find it difficult to manage nutritional supplements or medications that need to be taken regularly. In conclusion, the pill dispenser device was invented to reduce the inconvenience of taking supplements for people who wish to take them consistently, and to assist with efficient management and storage.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a pill dispenser according to user selection in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a pill dispenser according to user selection in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 is an actual photograph according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is an actual photograph according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The present invention relates to a pill dispenser designed to help a user take pills accurately at a set time without forgetting. The pill dispenser comprises a main body that stores pills and dispenses an appropriate amount according to a set time of administration, and a control unit that precisely controls this. This configuration includes various functions that help the user systematically manage pill administration. The main body is largely composed of a storage section for holding pills, a passage for dispensing pills, and a pill tray for receiving the dispensed pills. For example, let's assume a user needs to take various types of pills, such as vitamins, calcium, and Omega-3, every morning and evening. The storage section is configured with spaces to store these various types of pills separately and is designed to hold a certain quantity. This allows the user to store a sufficient amount of each pill in the storage section, enabling regular intake over a long period without the need for frequent replenishment. The storage section and the passage are connected via an outlet, and the pills are designed to flow through the passage to the outlet according to the dosage state selected by the user. The passage is designed to ensure the smooth flow of dispensed pills, allowing the exact necessary pills to be dispensed according to the dosage selected by the user. The pill tray is located at the bottom of the main body to safely receive the dispensed pills, allowing the user to take the pills directly from the tray. The control unit is a crucial device that interacts with the main unit to control pill dispensing. Based on the current state selected by the user, the control unit operates the pill dispensing system built into the main unit, ensuring that the correct quantity of pills is dispensed according to the type of pill the user desires. The control unit includes a communication unit that exchanges
