Description

  The present invention relates to a medicine supply device.

  There is known a drug supply device that has a plurality of tablet cases containing a large number of drugs by type, discharges the drugs from each tablet case individually, collects them with a hopper, and individually packs a plurality of types of drugs for each time. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1).

  Due to the spread of new drugs and generic drugs, there are cases where drugs with new shapes and sizes that are not compatible with existing tablet cases are handled. In some cases, one tablet may be divided and taken. In order to deal with such a medicine, the device described in Patent Document 1 is provided with a medicine feeder.

  This medicine feeder has, for example, a bucket (cell) constituted by a box-shaped member having one surface opened, an endless belt to which the bucket is attached, and a pair of pulleys for rotating the endless belt. The buckets are attached side by side with the bottom facing the belt. The endless belt is stretched between a pair of pulleys so that the upper bucket group and the lower bucket group are moved in a horizontal direction.

  In this medicine feeder, medicine is stored in the bucket with the opening facing upward, and the stored medicine is discharged to the outside when the bucket is inverted at the position of the pulley. The released drug is collected by a hopper and individually packaged together with the drug released from the tablet case.

JP 2010-83496 A

  By the way, there are various types of medicines that cannot be handled by the tablet case, and there are some medicines that do not fall off while being attached to the bottom of the bucket even after inversion. For example, a drug that is light in weight and easily charged with static electricity may remain attached to the bottom of the bucket due to static electricity after inversion. In this case, the medicine is packaged in a state where a part of the medicine for a single dose is insufficient. And when a shortage (error) is confirmed by the post-packaging check, the person in charge of dispensing is forced to perform a wasteful work of taking out the stuck medicine from the bucket and putting the medicine for one dose into the bucket again. As a result, there was a problem that work efficiency was impaired.

  This invention is made | formed in view of such a situation, The objective is to raise reliability about discharge | release of the chemical | medical agent accommodated in the bucket.

In order to achieve the above-described object, the present invention provides a box-shaped bucket having a face facing the bottom as an opening and an inside serving as a medicine storage space, and moving the bucket so that the opening faces upward. A medicine supply device having a bucket moving mechanism that changes the state of the bucket from a first state to a second state in which the opening faces downward, wherein the bucket is located on the bottom side in the first state. wherein said agent is capable mounted, the movable member that moves in a direction away from said bottom portion in the second state, has the receiving space, is connected to the movable member, the outside of the bucket through a guide hole And a movement regulating member that abuts against the stopper when the bucket is in the first state and regulates the movement of the movable member .

  According to the present invention, when the medicine is placed on the movable member when the bucket is in the first state and then the bucket is changed to the second state, the movable member moves in a direction away from the bottom. Since the medicine also moves downward along with the movement of the movable member, it becomes difficult to be affected by static electricity or the like, and the certainty of the medicine released from the bucket can be increased.

The belt conveyor 31 and the inclined plate 32 are members for guiding the medicine from the medicine supply unit 2 to the hopper 33. The belt conveyor 31 is disposed so as to be gently inclined downward toward the hopper 33, and guides the medicine dropped on the belt to the hopper 33. The inclined plate 32 is a plate-like member installed so as to have a downward inclination so that the medicine rolls down by its own weight, and guides the dropped medicine to the hopper 33. The hopper 33 guides the medicine guided from the belt conveyor 31 and the inclined plate 32 to the medicine packaging unit 4 (nozzle 41 described later). As described above, the medicine transport unit 3 transports the medicine supplied from the medicine supply unit 2 to the medicine packaging unit 4.

  The medicine packaging unit 4 includes a nozzle 41 and a packaging machine 42. The nozzle 41 is a part for temporarily storing each medicine transported through the hopper 33 and releasing the stored medicines downward when a predetermined medicine is prepared. For this reason, the nozzle 41 has a shutter (not shown) that can be controlled to open and close. The shutter is closed when the medicine is stored, and is opened when the medicine is released.

  The packaging machine 42 is a part for individually packaging each medicine released from the nozzle 41, and includes a roll holding unit 43, a printer 44, a heat seal head 45, a cutter 46, a conveyor 47, and a conveyance motor 48. have. The roll holding unit 43 is a part that holds roll-shaped wrapping paper (not shown). The printer 44 is a part that performs predetermined printing on the surface of the wrapping paper fed out from the roll holding unit 43. The wrapping paper printed by the printer 44 is guided to the nozzle 41.

  Here, the wrapping paper has a two-ply structure in which a strip-shaped sheet made of a material to be thermocompression bonded is folded back in half along the longitudinal direction. The wrapping paper is attached so that the folded portion is on the lower side, and is guided to the nozzle 41 in a state of being opened in a V shape.

  In the medicine packaging unit 4 configured as described above, various medicines conveyed from the medicine conveyance unit 3 are packaged and conveyed to the outlet 7.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the control panel 5 includes a display unit 51 and an input unit 52. The display unit 51 is configured by a liquid crystal display panel or the like, and displays various types of information. The input unit 52 includes a plurality of operation switches, and inputs instructions from a person in charge of dispensing. In other words, the person in charge of dispensing gives various instructions to the medicine supply device 1 by operating the operation switches of the input unit 52 while referring to various information displayed on the display unit 51.

  Next, the medicine feeder 22 will be described. The medicine feeder 22 is a part that supplies a medicine selected by a person in charge of dispensing, and is used when supplying a medicine or a divided tablet that is difficult to be supplied by the automatic supply unit 21. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 1, the medicine feeder 22 is provided in the upper front part of the medicine supply device 1 and partitions a plurality of storage spaces opened upward in the left-right direction. This makes it easy to set a medicine by a person in charge of dispensing.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the medicine set in the medicine feeder 22 is discharged at the right end portion of the medicine feeder 22 and guided to the inclined plate 32 through the chute 26. For this reason, similarly to the medicine supplied from the automatic supply unit 21, the medicine is stored in the nozzle 41 through the hopper 33 and then packaged. In addition, in FIG. 3, although the right end part of the chemical | medical agent feeder 22 is shown, the left end part is also comprised similarly. In this case, the released medicine is guided to the belt conveyor 31 through the chute. Then, after being stored in the nozzle 41 through the hopper 33, it is packaged.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the medicine feeder 22 includes a frame 61, a bucket 62, a movement restricting member 63, a bucket moving mechanism 64, a right guide member 65, and a left guide member 66. Yes. In addition, in order to avoid the complexity of a figure, in FIG. 4, the bucket 62 located in both right and left ends was described, and the intermediate bucket 62 was abbreviate | omitted. Similarly, in the perspective view of FIG. 5A, the bucket 62 is simplified.

  The frame 61 is a plate-like member to which the bucket 62 and the bucket moving mechanism 64 are attached and for attaching the unit to the housing 6. In the present embodiment, the frame 61 is configured by a horizontally long rectangular metal plate (SUS plate). .

  As shown in FIG. 5B, the bucket 62 is configured by a box-shaped member having an opening. Inside the bucket 62 is a storage space 80 in which a medicine is stored, and a movable member 91 is disposed in the storage space 80 in order to reliably discharge the medicine. The movable member 91 is provided with a stopper 92 that restricts the movement of the movable member 91. The bucket 62 will be described in detail later.

  The movement restricting member 63 is a plate-like member for restricting the movement of the movable member 91, and is provided at a position close to the front surface of the bucket 62 as shown in FIG. 4. And the movement of the movable member 91 is controlled when the stopper 92 contacts. The movement restricting member 63 will also be described in detail later.

  The bucket moving mechanism 64 is a mechanism for moving the bucket 62, and as shown in FIGS. 4B and 5A, an endless belt 71, a driving pulley 72, a driven pulley 73, and a driving motor. 74 and a transmission belt 75.

  The endless belt 71 is a member to which the bucket 62 is attached. In the present embodiment, the plurality of buckets 62 are attached side by side with the bottom 82 facing the endless belt 71. The endless belt 71 is stretched between a driving pulley 72 disposed on the right side and a driven pulley 73 disposed on the left side, and is configured to move as the driving pulley 72 rotates. . Thereby, the bucket group arrange | positioned at the upper end of the endless belt 71 will be in the 1st state which opened upward, and the bucket group arrange | positioned at the lower row of the endless belt 71 will be in the 2nd state which opened downward.

  As the endless belt 71 moves, the bucket 62 also moves. For example, when the driving pulley 72 rotates clockwise, the bucket group located in the upper row moves from left to right, and the bucket group located in the lower row moves from right to left. Then, the bucket 62 is reversed at the right end of the endless belt 71 (position of the drive pulley 72), and is converted from the first state in which the opening is upward to the second state in which the opening is downward. Similarly, the bucket 62 also reverses at the left end of the endless belt 71 (the position of the driven pulley 73) and is converted from the second state to the first state. When the drive pulley 72 rotates counterclockwise, each bucket 62 is moved in the opposite direction to the above.

  The drive motor 74 is a power source that applies a rotational force to the drive pulley 72, and the transmission belt 75 is a member that transmits the rotational force of the drive motor 74 to the drive pulley 72. The rotational speed, rotational direction, operation time, and the like of the drive motor 74 are controlled by a controller (not shown) based on control information from the control panel 5.

  The right guide member 65 is a hopper-like member that guides the medicine released from the bucket 62 that is reversed from the first state to the second state at the right end of the endless belt 71. Similarly, the left guide member 66 is a hopper-like member that guides the medicine released from the bucket 62 that is inverted from the first state to the second state at the left end of the endless belt 71. The lower end of each guide member is connected to the chute 26 described above. For this reason, the released medicine is packaged after being temporarily stored in the nozzle 41 through the chute 26 or the like.

  Next, the bucket 62 and the movement restriction member 63 will be described in detail. First, the bucket 62 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 5B, the bucket 62 has a bucket body 81, a movable member 91, and a stopper 92.

  The bucket body 81 has a bottom portion 82, an inclined front surface portion 83, a pair of side surface portions 84, a back surface portion 85, and a shielding portion 86, and a box-shaped member having an open surface facing the bottom portion 82. It is. As described above, the inside of the bucket 62 is a storage space 80 for storing the medicine. The width of the storage space 80 is set to a width having a margin more than the width of a human finger. For this reason, it is possible to scrape the medicine once stored with a fingertip. Moreover, the bucket main body 81 of this embodiment is produced by integral molding of resin.

  The bottom portion 82 is a portion facing the endless belt 71 and is formed in a rectangular plate shape. The inclined front surface portion 83 is a rectangular plate-like portion erected from the front edge of the bottom portion 82, and is provided obliquely so as to protrude forward as the distance from the bottom portion 82 increases. A long guide hole 87 is formed in the inclined front surface portion 83 in the vertical direction (the direction connecting the bottom portion 82 and the opening). The guide hole 87 is a long hole in which the base portion of the stopper 92 is disposed. For this reason, the base portion of the stopper 92 can move within the range of the guide hole 87. The side surface portion 84 is a plate-like portion erected from the left and right side edges of the bottom portion 82, and has a trapezoidal shape according to the inclination of the inclined front surface portion 83. The back surface portion 85 is a rectangular plate-like portion erected from the rear edge of the bottom portion 82.

  The shielding part 86 is a plate-like part provided in a direction away from the bottom part 82 continuously from the opening edge of the back face part 85. This shielding part 86 is for making a photo sensor (not shown) detect the passage of each bucket 62. That is, a photo sensor is disposed on the passage route of the shielding portion 86 at the reverse position of the bucket 62 (the position of the right guide member 65 and the left guide member 66). And when the shielding part 86 passes a photo sensor, it is electrically detected that the bucket 62 was reversed (medicine would have been released).

  The movable member 91 is a member on which a medicine is placed, and is disposed in the storage space 80. When the bucket 62 is in the first state, it is positioned on the bottom 82 side, and when it is in the second state, it moves in a direction away from the bottom 82. As shown in FIG. 6, the movable member 91 is constituted by a metal bent plate piece bent along the inner surface of the bottom portion 82 and the inner surface of the inclined front surface portion 83. In the present embodiment, the rectangular SUS plate is produced by bending it into a square shape. The size of the portion of the movable member 91 that contacts the bottom portion 82 is a rectangular shape that is slightly smaller than the bottom portion 82, so that the medicine does not enter the gap between the bucket body 81 and the movable member 91.

  The stopper 92 is made of a metal piece bent in a U shape, and is riveted to a portion corresponding to the inclined front surface portion 83 in the movable member 91. For this reason, the rivet 93 is inserted into the guide hole 87 provided in the inclined front surface portion 83, and this rivet 93 constitutes the base portion of the stopper 92. Thus, the stopper 92 is disposed outside the bucket 62 through the guide hole 87. At the time of riveting, the stopper 92 is fixed in a direction that is U-shaped in plan view.

  The stopper 92 of the present embodiment is made of a SUS plate in the same manner as the movable member 91. The rivet 93 is made of conductive metal. For this reason, the movable member 91 and the stopper 92 are electrically connected via the rivet 93.

  In the bucket 62 configured as described above, in the first state in which the opening is upward, the movable member 91 moves downward under its own weight as shown in FIG. As a result, the inner surface of the bottom portion 82 and the inner surface of the inclined front surface portion 83 are brought into contact with each other. On the other hand, in the second state where the opening faces downward, the movable member 91 moves downward by its own weight as shown in FIG. As a result, the movable member 91 moves until the stopper 92 contacts the end of the guide hole 87 and is separated from the bottom 82. That is, when the bucket 62 is changed from the first state to the second state, the movable member 91 is switched from a state close to the bottom 82 to a state separated from the bottom 82.

  Thereby, the medicine TB placed on the movable member 91 in the first state is separated from the bottom surface with the movement of the movable member 91 in the second state. Further, when the base (rivet 93) of the stopper 92 comes into contact with the end of the guide hole 87, the impact is transmitted to the movable member 91 and acts to separate the medicine TB from the movable member 91. As a result, the drug TB can be reliably released to the outside of the storage space 80.

  Next, the movement restriction member 63 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 4B and 6, the movement restricting member 63 is made of a metal plate (SUS plate in the present embodiment), and is disposed at a position in front of the bucket 62 and close to the bucket 62. Yes. The upper end of the bucket 62 is bent obliquely toward the bucket 62 and is close to the upper surface of the stopper 92 of the bucket 62 in the first state with a slight clearance. The movement restricting member 63 is electrically connected to the housing 6 through a ground wire (not shown). Since the housing 6 is grounded (FG), the movement restricting member 63 is also grounded.

  The movement restricting member 63 restricts the upward movement of the movable member 91 included in the bucket 62 in the first state. This movement restricting member 63 functions effectively, for example, when the person in charge of dispensing dispenses the medicine stored in the bucket 62.

  That is, when taking out the medicine, the person in charge of dispensing puts the fingertip into the bucket 62, moves the fingertip from the bottom toward the inclined front face 83, and scrapes the medicine out of the storage space 80. At this time, the movable member 91 tries to move upward due to friction with the finger, but the stopper 92 comes into contact with the movement restricting member 63 from below, so that the upward movement of the movable member 91 is restricted. Thereby, the medicine can be scraped out from the storage space 80 smoothly.

  The movement restricting member 63 also has a function of making it difficult for the medicine stored in the storage space 80 to jump out. That is, even if the movable member 91 tries to move upward due to vibration generated when the bucket 62 moves in the left-right direction, the stopper 92 comes into contact with the movement restricting member 63, so that excessive movement is restricted. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the stored medicine from bouncing and to make it difficult to jump out of the storage space 80.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the movement restricting member 63 is formed of a conductive metal plate (SUS plate) and the movement restricting member 63 is grounded, even if the movable member 91 is charged with static electricity, the bucket Static electricity can be removed with the movement of 62 in the left-right direction. That is, as the bucket 62 moves in the left-right direction, the stopper 92 comes into contact with the movement restricting member 63. At this time, static electricity of the movable member 91 passes through the rivet 93, the stopper 92, the movement restricting member 63, and the housing 6. Released to ground.

  As described above, since the static electricity is removed through the movable member 91 and the like, even if the bottom portion 82 is charged with static electricity, it becomes difficult for the medicine to stick to the movable member 91 and the like. As a result, the medicine can be reliably released to the outside of the storage space 80.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the box-shaped bucket 62 having the opening facing the bottom 82 and the inside serving as the medicine storage space 80 is moved, and the bucket 62 is moved to move the opening upward. In the medicine supply device 1 having the bucket moving mechanism 64 that changes the state of the bucket 62 from the first state to the second state in which the opening is downward, the storage space 80 of the bucket 62 is positioned on the bottom 82 side in the first state. In the second state, the movable member 91 that moves away from the bottom portion 82 is provided. Therefore, when the bucket 62 is changed to the second state, the movable member 91 moves from the bottom portion 82. It moves in the direction of separating, and the medicine also moves together with the movable member 91. As a result, the drug is hardly affected by static electricity or the like and can be reliably discharged from the bucket 62.

  Moreover, since the movable member 91 of the present embodiment is made of a metal plate piece (SUS plate) having a density higher than that of the resin, the movable member 91 can be reliably moved by its own weight. That is, in the first state, the movable member 91 can be reliably positioned toward the bottom portion 82, and in the second state, the movable member 91 can be reliably separated from the bottom portion 82.

  In addition, the bucket 62 of the present embodiment is connected to the movable member 91 and a stopper 92 disposed outside the bucket 62 via the guide hole 87, and abuts against the stopper 92 when the bucket 62 is in the first state. And a movement restricting member 63 that restricts the movement of the movable member 91. For this reason, the workability | operativity at the time of taking out the chemical | medical agent by the person in charge of dispensing can be improved. Further, it is possible to prevent a problem that the medicine jumps out of the storage space 80 when the bucket 62 is moved.

  Further, the bucket 62 of the present embodiment has an inclined front surface portion 83 that extends from the front edge of the bottom portion 82 and protrudes forward from the front edge toward the front edge of the opening. The movable member 91 is constituted by a bent plate piece bent in a square shape along the inner surface of the bottom portion 82 and the inner surface of the inclined front surface portion 83. Further, the guide hole 87 is constituted by a long hole provided in the inclined front surface portion 83. In this configuration, since the movable member 91 and the inclined front surface portion 83 are in contact with each other, the movable member 91 can be smoothly moved when the first state is switched to the second state. Thereby, a chemical | medical agent can be discharge | released reliably.

  Further, since the guide hole 87 is constituted by a long hole, when the storage space 80 is cleaned with an air blowing type cleaning tool such as an air duster or a blower, internal dust (tablet shavings or dust) is a long hole. It is easy to be discharged to the outside through. For this reason, the work efficiency at the time of cleaning can also be improved.

  In addition, the movable member 91 and the stopper 92 of the present embodiment are made of a conductive SUS plate. The movement restricting member 63 is made of a conductive SUS plate and is grounded via the housing 6. In this configuration, even if static electricity is accumulated on the bottom 82 of the bucket body 81, static electricity can be discharged to the ground via the movable member 91, the stopper 92, the movement restricting member 63, and the housing 6. Thereby, sticking of the chemical | medical agent resulting from static electricity can be prevented, and it can discharge | release reliably.

  By the way, in the bucket 62 of the above-described embodiment, the movable member 91 bent in a square shape is moved along the inclined front surface portion 83, but the movable member 91 is not limited to this configuration. Hereinafter, a modified bucket 62 in which the movable member 91 is changed will be described. In each modified example, the bucket body 81 has the same configuration as described above, and thus the same reference numerals are given and description thereof is omitted.

  In the bucket 62A of the first modification shown in FIG. 8, the movable member 91A is configured by a plate-like member having a bearing portion 94 provided at the front end. The movable member 91A is made of, for example, a metal plate whose front end is bent into a cylindrical shape. And it is comprised so that it can rotate centering on the rotating shaft 95 constructed by the bottom side front end of the both-sides surface part 84. As shown in FIG.

  In the first state in which the opening is upward, the rear end of the movable member 91A is in contact with the bottom 82 as shown in FIG. Then, the medicine TB is placed on the surface of the movable member 91A. In the second state in which the opening is downward, as shown in FIG. 8B, the movable member 91A is rotated by approximately 90 degrees until the rear end is downward (that is, the rear end side is centered on the front end from the bottom 82). Rotated away). Thereby, the medicine TB that has been placed is reliably released.

  In the bucket 62B of the second modified example shown in FIG. 9, the movable member 91B is configured by a plate-like member having a bearing portion 94. In the first modified example, the bearing portion 94 is provided at the front end. However, in the second modified example, the bearing portion 94 is provided on the side edge on the left side in the first state. For this reason, the rotating shaft 95 is installed between the inclined front surface portion 83 and the back surface portion 85 at a position that becomes the lower left corner in the first state.

  In the first state in which the opening is upward, as shown in FIG. 9A, the free end portion (the right end portion in the figure) of the movable member 91B is in contact with the bottom portion 82. Then, the medicine TB is placed on the surface of the movable member 91B. In the second state in which the opening is downward, as shown in FIG. 9B, the free end of the movable member 91B is rotated so as to be separated from the bottom 82 (that is, the free end portion around the bearing portion 94). The side is rotated away from the bottom 82). Even in the second modification, the placed medicine TB is surely released.

  In the bucket 62C of the third modified example shown in FIG. 10, the movable member 91C is bent in a square shape as in the above-described embodiment. Further, a plurality of slits are formed on the placement portion of the medicine TB, and are formed in a fork shape. In the third modification, the medicine placement portion of the movable member 91 has a fork shape, so that the contact area with the medicine TB can be reduced by the amount of the slit. Thereby, sticking by the static electricity of chemical | medical agent TB can be prevented still more reliably.

  The above description of the embodiment is for facilitating the understanding of the present invention, and does not limit the present invention. The present invention can be changed and improved without departing from the gist thereof, and the present invention includes equivalents thereof. For example, you may comprise as follows.

  Regarding the movable member 91, the SUS plate is exemplified in the above-described embodiment, but the SUS plate is not limited thereto. Other types of metal plates may be used. Moreover, you may produce with a resin board. Then, regarding the placement surface on which the medicine is placed, the contact area with the medicine may be reduced by roughening, embossing, or applying a roughening seal.
