Abstract

A pill box includes a box body. The box body includes an accommodating chamber defining an opening and receiving pills. A box closing the accommodating chamber is arranged on the accommodating chamber. A connecting end of the box cover is hinged to a rear end of the box body. An elastic piece and a limiting groove are disposed on the rear end of the box body. A clamping seat is arranged on the connecting end of the box cover. A bending portion is arranged on one end of the elastic piece. A fixing portion is arranged on another end of the elastic piece. The bending portion passes through the clamping seat and is exposed. When the box cover is buckled with the box body, the bending portion is deformed by being squeezed and tightly engages with the box cover, and the fixing portion extends downward into the limiting groove.
