Pill Dispenser

thingiverse

Got tired of opening bottles a couple times every day so I came up with this simple design. It could use some improvement, but over all it does work well. If this inspires you to create a better version, please do! I'd like to hear about it!! Supports are needed for the Pill Box, Pill buckets and the Pill tray. For the windows, I used a clear sheet page protector, cut to size and lined the bucket with it. Motors are a 30rpm (Meaning one pill drops every two seconds - Different RPMs will give different drop rates) 2x Small momentary push buttons A battery pack: I used a 4x aaa with power switch (6v) 4x m4x10 screws to secure the bottom plate Assemble as required, don't let the smoke out. Use at your own risk. (I put a small desiccant canister in the bucket to help keep pills dry. But I do find the gel caps tend to soften up a little bit by day 3. So I only fill to allow for 3 days, then top up)
