Simple medicine box with periodically reminding function

The utility model relates to a medicine container and an auxiliary device capable of reminding a patient to take medicine periodically. The medicine box comprises a housing, and at least one medicine storage unit, at least one set of delay control module, a delay module, a reminding module and a power supply module arranged in housing, wherein the modules are electrically connected with each other. A display screen assembly and a clock assembly are optional. Each set of delay control module comprises a delay switch assembly and a delay period setting assembly. A user sets times for taking medicine per day through the delay period setting assembly, and a system then accordingly determines the delay period of the medicine storage unit. When the medicine storage unit is closed, the delay switch assembly is closed, and the delay module starts to count down. When the countdown is finished, a control signal is sent to actuate the reminding module which sends medicine-taking reminding information. As long as the user opens the medicine storage unit, the corresponding reminding signal stops. A new countdown starts, when the medicine storage unit is closed again. The medicine box is simple in structure, convenient for use, and suitable for complex operation for taking medicine.
