Circular Pill Box

Abstract

A circular pill box comprises a body and also comprises a positioning ring, at least one pill disc, a rotating ring and a sleeve ring, which are stacked together from bottom to top inside the body, wherein the positioning ring, pill discs and rotating ring are engaged to each other. When rotated by a force, the rotating ring drives the positioning ring and pill discs to rotate synchronously. The bottom of the positioning ring has a positioning spring platelet press-fitting to one of positioning grooves formed on the bottom of the body. The positioning spring platelet can only rotate with respect to the positioning grooves stepwise and unidirectionally. Via the stepwise unidirectional rotation mechanism, the pills stored inside the pill discs can be sequentially released from the circular pill box according to the predetermined order.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A circular pill box comprising
 a body having a basin with an opening thereof facing upward, wherein a bottom of said basin has a plurality of positioning grooves, and wherein a lateral of said body has a pill collector protruding outward, and wherein a top of said pill collector has an opening;   a positioning ring accommodated inside said body, wherein a bottom of said positioning ring has a positioning spring platelet press-fitting to one of said positioning grooves, and wherein said positioning spring platelet can only rotate with respect to said positioning grooves stepwise and unidirectionally;   at least one pill disc accommodated inside said body, stacked above said positioning ring, engaged to each other, each having a plurality of cells arranged circumferentially and used to store pills;   a rotating ring accommodated inside said body, placed over said pill disc, engaged to said pill disc, and having a rotating handle that a user holds to rotate said rotating ring; and   a sleeve ring sleeving a rim of said rotating handle of said rotating ring.   
     
     
         2 . The circular pill box according to  claim 1 , wherein a bottom of said cell is an incline with an outer portion thereof higher than an inner portion thereof. 
     
     
         3 . The circular pill box according to  claim 1 , wherein a positioning hole and a positioning pin are respectively formed on contact surfaces between said positioning ring and said pill disc; said positioning pin is engaged to said positioning hole. 
     
     
         4 . The circular pill box according to  claim 1 , wherein a positioning hole and a positioning pin are respectively formed on contact surfaces between said pill disc and said rotating ring; said positioning pin is engaged to said positioning hole. 
     
     
         5 . The circular pill box according to  claim 1 , wherein said body accommodates a plurality of said pill discs stacked together and engaged to each other. 
     
     
         6 . The circular pill box according to  claim 5 , wherein a positioning hole and a positioning pin are respectively formed on contact surfaces between said pill discs; said positioning pin is engaged to said positioning hole. 
     
     
         7 . The circular pill box according to  claim 1 , wherein said body is made of a transparent material.
