## Abstract

The present invention relates to a printing operating system for a 3D object containing CBD, the system providing a printing operating method for a 3D object, whereby CBD-containing food, such as coffee, juice, syrup, sauce, ice cream, yogurt, chocolate, cookies, candy, etc., or CBD-containing products using a fluid, such as candles, soaps, cosmetics, oils, etc., are provided by being printed into various and distinctive shapes catering to consumer preferences, while quantitative control and verification are enabled so that the 3D object contains an amount of CBD which is legally allowed in each country. The system implements a teleportation concept-based drug delivery method enabling contactless remote diagnosis and, at the same time, delivery of drugs such as CBD in an emergency situation such as the prevalence of coronaviruses (such as COVID-19) or various infectious diseases.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A 3D printing operating system comprising:
an authentication unit configured to perform user authentication for determining whether or not to allow services for corresponding user information or specialist prescription information according to a request from a user terminal;
a CBD notification unit configured to transmit CBD content-related information produced on the basis of the user information or specialist prescription information to the user terminal so that the user terminal transmits job data including the CBD content-related information to a remote 3D printer through a network, and control printing to produce an object having a corresponding CBD content using a fluid;
a communication support unit configured to support the exchange of two-way remote communication information, including voice or text, between a specialist terminal and the user terminal while the 3D printer produces the object; and
an interface unit configured to manage a history of the use and effect of the CBD-containing object produced by the 3D printer corresponding to a causal symptom for each user in a database, analyze the use and effect of the CBD-containing object of a specific user or users for each causal symptom according to a request for statistic, and provide statistical information.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein the authentication unit is configured to perform the user authentication by identifying whether or not user identification information included in the request matches the user information or specialist prescription information, and perform additional authentication through communication with a management agency server.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein the CBD notification unit is configured to transmit, as the CBD content-related information, information including a weight ratio of CBD in the fluid for producing the object or a volume of the fluid when the CBD content of the fluid is known in advance.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein the fluid for producing the object contains 0.001 wt % to 95.0 wt % of CBD.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein the fluid for producing the object contains 0.0 wt % to 10.0 wt % of THC.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein the communication support unit is configured to extract, as the two-way remote communication information, a description of the use and effect of the CBD-containing object corresponding to the user's causal symptom with reference to the database, provide the same to the user terminal, and support interactive exchange of question and answer information about the symptom improvement status of the user between the specialist terminal and the user terminal.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein the 3D printer comprises:
a printer device configured to discharge a material through a nozzle of a discharge unit coupled to an xy driving unit according to a control signal;
a control device configured to generate the control signal so that the printer device produces an object on a bed in which a keep-warm/keep-cold mechanism is installed according to the job data ordered through the user terminal; and
a camera configured to obtain an image of the process of producing the object, and
wherein the control device is configured to execute the job data by interworking with the user terminal according to the relay of the CBD notification unit of the platform on the network, provide the image of the process of producing the object to the user terminal in real time, control the interface unit of the platform to provide analysis information on the process of producing the object to the user terminal in real time, and control one or more of x-axis or y-axis movement of the discharge unit, z-axis movement of the bed, a change in the discharge material, and operation stop according to a control command received from the user terminal.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 7, wherein the control device is configured to control the movement of the discharge unit according to digital data on pictures, design, photos, text, or information input by writing or drawing by hand, as job data, so as to discharge, through the discharge unit, the CBD-containing fluid on the bed or further discharge the same on a predetermined substructure, thereby producing the object.

### Claim 9 (depends on 7)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 7, further comprising a fluid feeder configured to supply the CBD-containing fluid through the discharge unit, wherein the discharge unit discharges the CBD-containing fluid through a nozzle in a PTE (Piston Type Extrusion) or STE (Screw Type Extrusion) method.

### Claim 10 (depends on 7)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 7, wherein the material of the fluid feeder for supplying the CBD-containing fluid through the discharge unit and fluid receiving means from the fluid feeder to the nozzle are made of plastic to prevent loss of CBD in the movement path of the CBD-containing fluid.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein the CBD-containing fluid used for producing the object in the 3D printer is obtained by a supercritical carbon dioxide extraction method, and contains animal or vegetable fat for a predetermined micelle or reverse micelle action.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein, in the 3D printer, the object is produced using a CBD-containing fluid on coffee in which a foam is formed on the coffee by a predetermined thickness or more.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein, in the 3D printer, the object, which is food, is produced using a CBD-containing fluid on other foods.

### Claim 14 (depends on 1)

The 3D printing operating system of claim 1, wherein, in the 3D printer, the object is produced using a CBD-containing fluid on the food in which a heat transfer barrier layer having a predetermined thickness or more is formed on the food.
