Organized Pill Bottle for Travel (with Easy-Access Handle)

When traveling or at work, taking along several pill bottles of medicine can be a hassle. Whether you are on a prescription or just want to have over-the-counter meds on hand, tossing them in an empty pill bottle is an easy answer. This divider breaks such a bottle into seven sections, either one per day of the week or for up to seven types of meds.

This is based on the model “Pill container 7 day divider” by user Junaling. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3955195 I have changed the dimensions to fit a larger bottle and added a flat ring to function as a handle for easier use. Original models are included here for convenience. 

Features: 
• For 26x66mm, 32x64mm, 38x60mm, or 45x64mm medicine bottles.
• Seven sections.
• Lays flat when removed from bottle.
• Sections large enough for 500mg acetaminophen tablets. 
• Handle for easy use.

Accessibility Notes:
I added a loop flat enough to fit under the cap when closed. It is intended to be tied to the holes in the top of the divider, allowing people with limited manual dexterity (and everybody else) to easily remove the divider to only the desired degree. 

Printing Notes:
• Any rigid plastic (PLA, ABS, PETG, et cetera).
• No supports needed.
• Infill ≥ 15%.

Assembly: 
To finish this build, you will need ~10cm of strong thread. If you have difficulty running the thread through both small holes, I recommend using needle-nose pliers. Loop it around the handle before tying a secure knot.

Today I Learned:
“Pill” comes from the same Latin root word (meaning to pulverize) as “pestle,” because medicines were ground into a powder in a mortar before being given to the patient, sometimes in pill form.
