摘要:
It is desired to prevent disalignment of the edges of a folded sheet by smoothly feeding the sheet while keeping tension fluctuations to a minimum when the sheet is unwound from a paper roll set in a paper feed unit to a packaging unit even though the paper roll diameter decreases gradually as the sheet is unwound. A sheet length measuring sensor or rotary encoder is provided in the paper feed path through which the packaging sheet unwound from the paper roll is fed toward the packaging unit. An angle sensor is provided which comprises Hall element sensors provide on a support shaft and magnets provided on a core pipe of the paper roll. Any change in the signals from one of these sensors relative to the signal from the other sensor is used to calculate the paper roll winding length, and the sheet tension is adjusted to an optimum, constant level by controlling the sheet braking force stepwise according to the roll diameter measured by the sensors.

A method of supplying ampules, stored in a container, to any of a plurality of feeders of an ampule dispenser which has run out or is short of ampules in stock. The ampules are supplied only after confirming that the ampules in the storage container are the kind to be supplied into the intended feeder. When any feeder of the ampule dispenser runs out or is short of ampules, a bar code on the ampule storage container is read by a bar code reader and compared with an identification code provided on the intended feeder. If they coincide with each other, the ampules in the container are supplied into the intended feeder.

A printing apparatus for printing medicine bags includes a plurality of cassettes in which different type of medicine bags are contained, the cassettes being vertically spaced, printers for printing predetermined information on the medicine bags, a medicine bag conveying member, and a control unit. The medicine bag conveying member is pivotable at an outlet thereof so that an inlet thereof communicates with any one of the cassettes to convey medicine bags to the printers from the cassettes. The control unit selects any one of the cassettes, causes the medicine bag conveying member to pivot so that the inlet of the medicine bag conveying member is connected to the selected cassette, causes the medicine bag conveying member to convey the medicine bag to a selected printer, and causes the printer to print the predetermined information on the medicine bag.
摘要:
A tablet dispenser having a control unit which can eliminate the possibility of erroneously putting tablets in a wrong tablet storage space. The tablet dispenser has a tablet storage unit and a packing unit. Tablets designated by drug information are dropped from the tablet storage unit. When tablets in any of a plurality of tablet storage cells in the tablet storage unit run short, tablets are manually supplied into this cell by opening its cover. Before supplying tablets, the control unit reads a code on the tablet container with a bar code reader, compares this code with a code that represents tablets to be supplied into the above particular cell, and indicates on a display if these codes coincide. An operator checks the display to see if the codes coincide, and if they do, the operator then supplies tablets in the tablet container into the particular cell.
摘要:
A control method of efficiently transporting and collecting drugs that have been prepared in a plurality of drug processing units arranged along a conveyor line. Arranged along the conveyor line are a drug pouch printer, a powdered drug processing units, a tablet processing unit, other drug processing unit, a drug inspection unit, etc. Buckets are fed on the conveyor by numerous rollers provided on the conveyor. The drug preparation steps for respective patients are started in the order of the entry of data for the respective patients. But the buckets for the respective patients are started not in this order but the bucket for the patient whose drugs have been prepared first is started first.

The disclosed device increases the accommodation amount of blister packages and enables smooth dispensing even if a blister package is bent or similar. The device is provided with: a device body (1), a storage container (2) which accommodates blister packages (4) in a stacked state, and a dispensing member (3) which can dispense the accommodated blister package (4). The storage container (2) is provided with an outlet (13), which is formed on the base at one end side thereof, and which is for ejecting the blister package (4), and a biasing means (12) for biasing the accommodated blister packages (4) toward one end side. The dispensing member (3) is provided with a guide part (36) for guiding a side edge part of the blister packages (4), and biases the blister packages (4) toward one end side of the storage container (2).
摘要:
A device for individually packaging medication comprises: a conveyance member for conveying a long packaging sheet, the packaging sheet being folded in two along the longitudinal direction thereof with a fold line disposed on the lower side; and a sealing member for sealing the packaging sheet. The sealing member is configured by integrating longitudinal and lateral sealing units. The longitudinal sealing unit being adapted to seal the edge of the packaging sheet, located on an opposite side of the fold line, and the lateral sealing unit being adapted to seal the packaging sheet at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction. The device further comprises: a support member for supporting the sealing member; and a control unit causing the sealing member to rotate idle while separating the longitudinal sealing unit from the packaging sheet and thereafter causing the longitudinal sealing unit to come into contact again with the packaging sheet.

A medicine cart (1) is provided which includes a plurality of cassettes (10) which are upwardly open and each accommodate a plurality of medicine containers in an upright state in a row. The plurality of cassettes (10) are placed on a shelf plate (8) which can be drawn out of a main body (3) of the medicine cart (1). A pressing member (47) is provided in each cassette (10) and forwardly presses a rearmost medicine container in its respective cassette (10). Each cassette (10) has a locking means (61) for locking the pressing member (47) at a predetermined position in the cassette (10), and an unlocking means (62, 63) for canceling the lock of the pressing member (47) by the locking means (61) if the shelf plate (8) is pushed in or drawn out of the main body (3) of the medicine cart (1).
