[0021] The present invention relates to a herbal drink preparation device for diabetic patients that is capable of preparing herbal dink for a diabetic patient from different ingredients including fenugreek, cinnamon, ginger, gooseberry having an amount as per body type, facial condition, and visible symptoms on the user’s body without any requirement of skilled persons, thereby eliminating excess time consumed in preparing the herbal drinks to cure the diabetic symptoms.

[0022] Referring to Figure 1, an isometric view of a herbal drink preparation device for diabetic patients is illustrated, comprising a housing 101 having a ceiling portion installed with a water container 102, multiple chambers 103 installed with the ceiling portion, a motorized grinder 104 arranged within each of the chambers 103, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 105 mounted on the housing 101, a motorized iris lid 106 configured with the chamber, a vessel 107 arranged underneath the chambers 103, an electronic nozzle 108 installed with the container 102, a robotic arm 109 configured within the vessel 107 and having a ceramic plate 117 integrated with a heating unit 118, an electronic valve 110 configured with the vessel 107, a bowl 111 placed underneath the vessel 107, a speaker 112 mounted on the housing 101, a suction unit 113 installed with the vessel 107 and paired with a receptacle 114, a motorized sliding lid 115 configured with each of the chambers 103, and a Peltier unit 116 configured with each of the chambers 103.

[0023] The proposed device comprises of a housing 101 made up of any material, designed for efficient preparing herbal drink for diabetic patients. The housing 101 is encased with various components associated with the device and arranged in sequential manner that aid in preparing the herbal drinks. Upon placing of the housing 101 over a ground surface by a user, the user accesses a user-interface inbuilt in a computing unit to give input for preparation of a herbal drink. The computing unit, herein, includes but not limited to a mobile and laptop that comprises a processor where the input in the user’s interface is received and stored to process and retrieve the output data in order to display in the computing unit.

[0024] A microcontroller is wirelessly linked with the computing unit via a communication module which includes but not limited to Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) module, Bluetooth module. GSM (Global System for Mobile communication). The communication module acts as a medium between various electronic unit for establishing communication between the user’s interface and the device for processing the input given by the user. Upon processing the input commands given by the user, the microcontroller actuates a motorized grinder 104 assembled within each of the chambers 103 to grind herbs include, but not limited to fenugreek, cinnamon, ginger, gooseberry for a pre-set time duration. The grinder 104 operates by using a motor-driven mechanism, typically consisting of rotating blades or burrs, to crush and pulverize the herbs into smaller, uniform particles. Once the microcontroller identifies the type of herb via the odor sensor, the microcontroller sends a signal to activate the motor within the respective chamber.

[0025] The motor mentioned herein provides rotational force to the grinding mechanism to efficiently break down the herbs without overheating or losing essential aromatic compounds to grind the herbs for a pre-set time duration based on the herb type. Herein, a timer integrated within the microcontroller track the time duration of grinding the herb. The timer operates by utilizing an oscillator within the microcontroller to measure the passage of time with precision. When the microcontroller identifies the herb type and initiates the grinding process, it starts the timer, which counts clock cycles corresponding to the pre-set time duration for that specific herb. The timer continuously measures the elapsed time and stops the grinder’s motor once the specified duration is reached to obtain herbal powders.

[0026] An odor sensor arranged within each of multiple chambers 103 installed with ceiling portion of the housing 101 for detecting type of herbs stored within the chambers 103. The odor sensor mentioned herein works by detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by the herbs stored in each chambers 103. The VOCs are unique to different types of herbs and act as chemical signatures. The sensor uses technologies such as metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) sensors, electrochemical cells, or gas chromatography techniques to identify and measure the concentration of the VOCs compounds. The microcontroller processes the data from the sensor, comparing against a predefined database to determine the type of herb based on characteristic odor profile of the herbs. Based on detecting type of the herb, the microcontroller saved in a database linked with the microcontroller.

[0027] Additionally, if the user desires to re-fill the chambers 103, then the user accesses the computing unit to give commands for re-filling the chambers 103. Based on that the microcontroller actuates a motorized sliding lid 115 configured with each of the chambers 103 to open for allowing the user to re-fill the herbs in the chambers 103. The sliding lid 115 operates by using a motorized mechanism that moves the lid 115 along a track or rail unit. When the microcontroller receives the user’s command to refill the chambers 103, the microcontroller activates a small motor connected to the lid 115. The motor drives a gear or belt mechanism, which slides the lid 115 along the track, either to the left or right for opening the chambers 103 to allow the user to re-fill the chambers 103 for maintaining the formation of the herbal powder.

[0028] During formation of the herbal powder, a humidity sensor integrated in each of the chambers 103 detects humidity level within the chambers 103. The humidity sensor operates by measuring the moisture content in the air within the chamber using either a capacitive, resistive, or thermal conductivity-based sensing mechanism for altering the sensor's capacitance, which is then converted into an electrical signal proportional to the humidity level. This data is transmitted to the microcontroller to detect the humidity level within the chambers 103. Based on detection, if detected humidity exceeds a threshold limit, then the microcontroller activates a Peltier unit 116 integrated with each of the chambers 103 to maintain an optimum temperature of the chambers 103 to reduce the humidity.

[0029] The Peltier unit 116 mentioned herein comprises of junctions and a thermoelectric generator (TEG) that is a solid unit which converts the heat into electric energy by the phenomena of see beck effect that is also known as form of thermoelectric effect. Further when the current flows through the junctions, the heat is removed from one junction to regulate the temperature within the chambers 103 to reduce the humidity, thus preventing formation of clumps of the powder for proper from the herbal powders. After forming the herbal powders, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 105 installed on the housing 101 for detecting body type, facial condition, and visible symptoms on the user’s body.

[0030] The imaging unit 105, mentioned herein comprises of comprises of a camera and processor that works in collaboration to capture and process the images of the user. The camera firstly captures multiple images of the user, wherein the camera comprises of a body, electronic shutter, lens, lens aperture, image sensor, and imaging processor that works in sequential manner to capture images of the user. After capturing of the images by the camera, the shutter is automatically open due to which the reflected beam of light coming from the surrounding due to light is directed towards the lens aperture. After that the reflected light beam passes through the image sensor.

[0031] The image sensor now analyzes the beam to retrieve signal from the beams which is further calibrate by the sensor to capture images of the user in electronic signal. Upon capturing images, the imaging processor processes the electronic signal into digital image. When the image capturing is done, the processor associated with the imaging unit 105 processes the captured images by using a protocol of artificial intelligence to retrieve data from the captured image in the form of digital signal. The detected data in the form of digital signal is now transmitted to the linked microcontroller based on which the microcontroller acquires the data to detect the body type, facial condition, and visible symptoms on the user’s body.

[0032] Based on detecting the body type, facial condition, and visible symptoms on the user’s body, the microcontroller determines type and amount of the herbs to be used for preparing the herbal drink. After that the microcontroller actuates a motorized iris lid 106 configured with each of the chambers 103 to open for dispensing the determined type of herbal powder in a vessel 107 arranged underneath the chambers 103. The iris lid 106 operates by using a motorized mechanism that controls a series of interlocking, curved segments arranged in a circular pattern, similar to the aperture of a camera. When the microcontroller determines the type and amount of herb to be dispensed, the microcontroller sends a signal to the motor, which rotates or translates to adjust the position of the segments. This movement either opens the iris lid 106 to the required diameter for precise dispensing of the herbal powder in the vessel 107.

[0033] During actuation of the iris lid 106, a flow meter is positioned at the exit point of the motorized iris lid 106 where the powder will dispense) into the vessel 107, which monitors the flow rate of the powder being dispensed that works together with the AI camera and machine-learning protocols to ensure the powder flows at the correct rate based on the recommended ratio (depending on quantity and amounts of amount of water), If the flow is too fast or slow then the microcontroller will control the iris lid 106 to keep the amount accurate to meet the user’s needs for each drink.

[0034] During dispensing of the herbal powder, a weight sensor integrated with each of the chambers 103 detects amount of the powder dispended from the chambers 103. The weight sensor operates by using a load cell or strain gauge that measures the force exerted by the weight of the dispensed powder. When the herbal powder is dispensed, the load cell converts the mechanical force into an electrical signal, which is proportional to the weight of the powder. The microcontroller reads this signal in real-time, enabling precise detecting of the dispensed amount. Based on detection, if the detected amount matches the determined amount, then the microcontroller actuates the iris lid 106 to close.

[0035] Simultaneously, the microcontroller actuates an electronic nozzle 108 installed with a water container 102 installed with the ceiling portion to dispense pre-set amount of water in the vessel 107. The nozzle 108 includes solenoids, piezoelectric actuators, or motor-driven mechanisms that converts electrical signals into mechanical motion. The nozzle 108 is controlled by a control unit that sends electrical signals to the actuation mechanism. The control unit includes a pulse width modulation (PWM) or analog voltage control. The primary function of the nozzle 108 is to control the opening and closing of the nozzle’s orifice or aperture. Upon receiving the appropriate electrical signal by the actuation mechanism, it initiates the motion that opens or closes the nozzle 108. This action controls the flow of the water through the nozzle 108. The nozzle 108 allows precise control over the flow rate and direction of the water.

[0036] By modulating the actuation mechanism according to the desired parameters, the nozzle 108 is capable of regulating the flow and provide accurate dispensing of the water in the vessel 107. Simultaneously, the microcontroller actuates a robotic arm 109 installed with the vessel 107 and equipped with a ceramic plate 117 integrated with a heating unit 118 that is actuated by the microcontroller for stirring the water with powders. The robotic arm 109 comprises of a shoulder, elbow and wrist. All these parts are configured with the microcontroller. The elbow is at the middle section of the arm 109 that allows the upper part of the arm 109 to move the lower section independently. Lastly, the wrist is at the tip of the upper arm 109 and attached to the end effector works as hand for stirring the ceramic plate 117 in the vessel 107.

[0037] Simultaneously, the microcontroller actuates the heating unit 118 to heat the vessel 107 for facilitating in stirring for mixing of the herbal powders with the water, creating a uniform herbal drink. The heating unit 118 works by using an electric heating element or a thermal conduction system, which is powered by the microcontroller. When activated, the heating unit 118 generates heat, raising the temperature of the vessel's contents to a desired level to dissolve the herbal powders more effectively into the water, promoting a smoother and more uniform blend for creating a uniform herbal drink.

[0038] Additionally, a temperature sensor is integrated the vessel 107 to detect temperature if it detects above a threshold value, then the microcontroller actuates motorized iris holes and exhaust fans integrated in the housing 101 to control the heating unit, while the humidity sensor monitors the moisture levels of the herbal drinks. When the ingredients reach at desired dryness, then the sensor signal the device to turn off the heating and stop the robotic arm 109 to make it equal dryness and preserve the herbal drink for long-term storage.

[0039] During formation of the herbal drink, a viscosity sensor integrated within the vessel 107 detects viscosity of the herbal drink. The viscosity sensor operates by measuring the resistance of the herbal drink to flow within the vessel 107 achieved using a rotational viscometer, vibrational sensor, or piezoelectric element integrated into the vessel 107. The sensor detects changes in the torque required to rotate a spindle or the damping of vibrations caused by the drink’s viscosity. The measurements are converted into electrical signals and sent to the microcontroller, which analyzes the data to determine the drink's consistency. Based on detecting the drink’s viscosity, if the detected drink’s viscosity matches a threshold value, then the microcontroller terminates working of the robotic arm 109 and heating unit 118.

[0040] After the termination of the robotic arm 109 and heating unit 118, the microcontroller actuates an electronic valve 110 configured with the vessel 107 to dispense the herbal drink in a bowl 111 placed underneath the vessel 107. The valve 110 operates by using an electronically controlled solenoid mechanism. When the microcontroller determines that the herbal drink is ready for dispensing, the microcontroller sends an electrical signal to the solenoid, which generates a magnetic field. This magnetic field moves a plunger or actuator within the valve 110, opening the flow path and allowing the herbal drink to dispense into the bowl 111. After that the microcontroller actuates a speaker 112 integrated with housing 101 for notifying the user to collect the bowl 111 from the housing 101 from an opening crafted on the housing 101.

[0041] The speaker 112 mentioned herein includes a diaphragm, which is typically made of a lightweight and rigid material like paper, plastic, or metal to vibrate and produce sound waves when electrical signals are fed to it for notifying the user. After passing of the electrical signal through a voice coil suspended within a magnetic gap of the speaker 112, it generates a magnetic field that interacts with the fixed magnetic field produced by a magnet assembly associated with the voice coil. Upon variation in electrical current, the magnetic field produced by the voice coil changes, resulting in the voice coil and attached cone/diaphragm moving back and forth. This movement creates pressure variations in the surrounding air, generating sound waves to generate the audible sound to notify the user to collect the bowl 111 from the housing 101.

[0042] Simultaneously, the microcontroller actuates the nozzle 108 for dispensing the water in the vessel 107 for cleaning the vessel 107. After that microcontroller actuates a suction unit 113 installed with the vessel 107 and paired with a receptacle 114 for withdrawing waste water from the vessel 107 and discarding the waste water in the receptacle 114. The suction unit 113 operates by using a motorized pump that creates a vacuum to withdraw the wastewater from the vessel 107. When the microcontroller signals the suction unit 113 to activate, the pump generates negative pressure, drawing the waste water through an inlet connected to the vessel 107. The water is then transported through tubing into the connected receptacle 114 to collect and store the waste.

[0043] Moreover, the microcontroller integrated with an advanced computer vision technology to analyze physical appearance of each ingredient, assessing factors such as color, texture, and shape to determine freshness and quality of the prepared herbal drink. If spoilage is detected, such as discoloration or texture changes, the microcontroller sends an alert to the user’s connected application, prompting to replace or remove the affected ingredient. Also, the device captures an image of the user's face while consuming the herbal drink, analyzing signs of dehydration, such as dry skin, and suggesting suitable drinks based on their hydration status and blood sugar levels. If the user has any scratches on body that persist over time, the device will prepare a juice designed to help regulate blood sugar levels. It also detects signs of fluid retention or facial swelling, suggesting drinks that are low in sugar and sodium. Images of the ingredients are sent to the user’s smartphone application, where the chemical composition of the fruits is identified.

[0044] The application mentioned above uses a machine learning protocols to analyze past health data related to frequently consumed ingredients, alerting the user if any health issues are detected and preparing an appropriate drink to help manage their condition. The device is equipped with IOT ( Internet of Thing) connectivity, allowing the users to control it remotely through the application, customize drink preferences, and monitor real-time data. The application further enhances the user experience by enabling drink ratings, feedback, and access to reviews from other users. It sends notifications for drink readiness, ingredient shortages, and maintenance needs, while also maintaining a history of drink preparation to track consumption patterns and assist in diabetes management.

[0045] A battery (not shown in figure) is associated with the device to offer power to all electrical and electronic components necessary for their correct operation. The battery is linked to the microcontroller and provides (DC) Direct Current to the microcontroller. And then, based on the order of operations, the microcontroller sends that current to those specific electrical or electronic components so the user effectively carry out their appropriate functions.

[0046] The present invention works best in following manner that includes the housing 101 positioned on a ground surface having the user-interface inbuilt in the computing unit wirelessly associated with the device for enabling the user to give input for preparation of a herbal drink based on that the microcontroller wirelessly linked with the computing unit processes the input commands and activates the odor sensor for detecting type of the herbs stored within the chambers 103, followed by actuation of the motorized grinder 104 to grind the herbs for a pre-set time duration, as monitored via the timer integrated within the microcontroller, to obtain herbal powders. Herein, the artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 105 detects body type, facial condition, and visible symptoms on the user’s body, in accordance to which the microcontroller determines type and amount of the herbs to be used for preparing the herbal drink. After that the microcontroller actuates the motorized iris lid 106 to open for dispensing the determined type of herbal powder in the vessel 107 as fetched from the database, to open for dispensing the determined type of herbal powder. Herein, the weight sensor detects amount of the powder dispended from the chambers 103, and as soon as the determined amount matches the determined amount, the microcontroller actuates the iris lid 106 to close, followed by actuation of the electronic nozzle 108 to dispense pre-set amount of water in the vessel 107.

[0047] In continuation, the robotic arm 109 is actuated by the microcontroller to stir the water with the herbal powders via the plate 117 having the heating unit 118 to obtain the herbal drink. Herein, the viscosity sensor detects viscosity of the herbal drink, and as soon as the detected viscosity matches the threshold value, then the microcontroller terminates working of the robotic arm 109 and heating unit 118 , and then activates the electronic valve 110 to dispense the herbal drink in the bowl 111. After that the microcontroller activates the speaker 112 for notifying the user to collect the bowl 111 from the housing 101 by accessing the opening. Also, upon actuation of the valve 110, the microcontroller actuates the nozzle 108 for dispensing the water in the vessel 107 for cleaning the vessel 107, followed by actuation of the suction unit 113 for generating suction pressure in view of withdrawing waste water from the vessel 107 and discarding the waste water in the receptacle 114 for maintain cleanliness.
