The LiveFine® Automatic Pill Dispenser is a battery-operated device designed to help users manage their medication schedule by automatically dispensing pills at designated times. It aims to prevent forgotten or double doses through its automated system and clear alerts.
Function Description:
The primary function of the device is to dispense medication automatically at pre-set times. It features an internal pill container with 28 spacious compartments, allowing for multiple pills or tablets per slot. The system provides alerts through a flashing light indicator ring, rotation of the internal pill container, and a beeping alarm. These alerts sound every seven seconds for up to 30 minutes until the unit is fully inverted to dispense medication. The device also includes a locking cover to secure medications, prevent spills, and deter tampering or accidental removal. A mini magnifying glass is integrated above the dosage window for clearer viewing of pills and dosage information. The pill delivery door is designed as an easy-slide window, making it simpler to access medications compared to traditional flip-open containers. Once the internal pill container rotates to the correct position, sliding open the door and inverting the unit stops the alarm and dispenses the medication.
