る。 To explain the present invention according to the illustrated embodiment, 1 is a base plate, and a tablet hopper 2 is provided on one side of the base plate. Reference numeral 3 denotes a transfer plate, which is made of an opaque material and is disposed below the tablet hopper 2, that is, on the base plate 1, so as to receive the supply of tablets. The transfer plate 3 is formed into a disk shape and configured to rotate about its center as an axis, as in the illustrated embodiment, or it is configured in the shape of a belt conveyor. Reference numeral 4 denotes a tablet insertion hole, which is bored at an appropriate position in the transfer plate 3 so that the tablet fits therein and further falls downward. The number of tablet insertion holes 4 required for counting is provided. 5
is a weir, and the base plate 1 is placed close to the transfer plate 3 located in front of the tablet outlet of the tablet hopper 2.
This is provided to guide the tablets supplied from the tablet hopper 2 onto the transfer plate 3 to the tablet insertion hole 4, and to prevent the tablets from accidentally flowing out elsewhere. The weir 5 is made of an elastic material such as a sponge, and a mechanically or electromagnetically actuated vibrator 6 is attached to apply appropriate vibrations to the weir 5 and the transfer plate 3. If the tablet is left in place, the tablet can be efficiently fitted into the tablet insertion hole 4. Reference numeral 7 denotes a light receiving tube, inside of which a photoelectric conversion element 8 is provided, and is activated by receiving light from the outside. The light receiving tubes 7 are provided diagonally with respect to the lower base plate 1 in the travel path of the transfer plate 3, and are arranged as many times as there are tablet insertion holes 4 so as to face the tablet insertion holes 4 of the transfer plate 3. It is provided. The reason why the light receiving tube 7 is provided diagonally is that it receives light only in an oblique direction through the vertically opening tablet insertion hole 4.
Even if there is some gap between the tablet fitted into the tablet and the peripheral edge of the tablet insertion hole 4, light can be sufficiently shielded. Reference numeral 9 denotes a tablet receiving device for receiving counted tablets, and may be equipped with an appropriate tablet filling and packaging mechanism.
Reference numeral 10 denotes an inlet opening/closing plate of the tablet receiving device 9, which is opened and closed to receive the tablet fitted into the tablet insertion hole 4 of the transfer plate 3.
The light receiving tube 7 detects whether the tablets are fitted or not fitted, and the light receiving tube 7 detects the state only when the tablet is fitted into all the tablet insertion holes 4.
7... opens the entrance opening/closing plate 10, and the tablets addressed to the number of tablet insertion holes 4 provided in the transfer plate 3 fall into the tablet receiving device 9. At this time, the entrance opening/closing plate 10 is opened. By counting 10 times of opening and closing with a counter, you can also count the required number of tablets. In addition, when the tablet does not fill all of the tablet insertion holes 4, the light receiving tube 7 provided below the tablet insertion hole 4 in which the tablet is not fitted senses the light, and the entrance opening/closing plate 10 to prevent tablets from falling into the tablet receiving device 9. The opening/closing operation of the entrance opening/closing plate 10 of the tablet receiving device 9 by the light receiving action of the light receiving tube 7 will be explained with reference to the wiring diagram illustrated in FIG. First, when light enters the light receiving tube 7, the light is converted into a current by the photoelectric conversion element 8, amplified by the transistor T, and provides a signal to the control rectifier element SCR. The operation of the control rectifying element SCR activates the relay L, closes the switch S2 , and activates the electromagnet 11 for driving the opening/closing plate to close the entrance opening/closing plate 10.

Since the transfer plate 3 remains closed, for example, when the transfer plate 3 is made of a disk, it is necessary to reset the transfer plate every rotation. Turn off the switch S1 provided on the anode side of the control rectifier S1, which is currently energized.
By turning off the CR, the switch S2 is opened and the entrance opening/closing plate 10 is opened.
なお、入口開閉板１０は光が受光筒７に入らな
い時に開放するよう作動させることもできる。 Note that the entrance opening/closing plate 10 can also be operated to open when no light enters the light receiving tube 7.
本発明による時には、受光筒が斜めに設けられ

ことができる実益を有する。 According to the present invention, since the light receiving tube is provided diagonally, it is possible to accurately sense the insertion state of the tablet into the tablet insertion hole, and has the practical benefit of being able to count effectively.
