    Abstract: A pill-cutting box includes an upper shell, a lower shell pivotally connecting the upper shell, a cutter unit in the upper shell, an elastic holder set in the lower shell, and a sliding mechanism between the upper and lower shells. The elastic holder set, consisted of a bottom pad and two side pads, provides a pill-setting room protruded over the lower shell. The sliding mechanism includes a sliding plate to shield the cutter unit. In a cutting process, the upper shell is pivoted to match the lower shell, the sliding plate moves to expose the cutter unit, a pill held by the elastic holder set in the pill-cutting room is sent to meet the cutter unit. With elastic holding by the elastic holder set, the pill can keep its position during the cutting, and thus the pill-cutting result can be much acceptable.
