Abstract

The individual separation is achieved by a discharge slide (3) which has at the lower end a receiver opening (7) for one tablet. If the discharge slide is pressed down, the tablet situated in the receiving opening is transported downwards until it can drop freely. At the same time, the second tablet, which is situated in the collection channel (6) is held by suitable means so that no further tablets can drop out. The base of the collection channel is formed by the restoring spring (4) of the discharge slide. Upon actuation, the restoring spring also moves and moves the tablets located above it, by which means said tablets drop into the collection groove. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung/Neuerung bezieht sich auf einen Tabletten- Einzeldosierer, bei dem jeweils eine der zu dosierenden Tabletten über eine Sammelrinne in eine Öffnung des Auslaßschiebers gelangt und durch Betätigen des Auslaßschiebers ins Freie fallen kann.The invention / innovation relates to a single tablet dispenser, in each of which one of the tablets to be dosed reaches an opening of the outlet slide via a collecting trough and can fall into the open by actuating the outlet slide.

Es gibt schon verschiedene Tablettenspender für diese Aufgabe. Diese weisen aber Nachteile auf: sie müssen entweder gekippt, oder geschüttelt werden, damit die Tabletten in die Sammelrinne gelangen. Bereits bekannte Ausführungen, die die Bewegung des Auslaßschiebers zum Fördern der Tabletten zur Sammelrinne benützen, sind sehr kompliziert und damit teuer.There are various tablet dispensers for this task. However, these have disadvantages: they either have to be tilted or shaken so that the tablets get into the collecting trough. Known designs that use the movement of the outlet slide to convey the tablets to the collecting trough are very complicated and therefore expensive.

Der Erfindung/Neuerung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, mit einer einfacheren und damit wirtschaftlicheren Konstruktion, durch Drücken eines in Fallrichtung angeordneten Auslaßschiebers, je eine Tablette ins Freie fördern zu können und gleichzeitig die Bewegung des Auslaβschiebers zum lagegerechten Vorrichten und Fördern der Tabletten zur Sammelrinne zu nutzen.The invention / innovation is based on the object, with a simpler and therefore more economical construction, by pressing an outlet slide arranged in the direction of the fall, to be able to convey one tablet into the open and at the same time to use the movement of the outlet slide to position and convey the tablets to the collecting trough in the correct position .

Die Erfindung/Neuerung besteht darin, daß am Boden des Behälterteils eine Sammelrinne angeordnet ist, deren Boden durch die, am Auslaßschieber schräg angeformten Rückstellfeder gebildet wird. Hierdurch wird bei Bewegung des Auslaßschiebers auch der Boden der Sammelrinne auf- und abbewegt, wodurch die darüberliegenden Tabletten in Bewegung gebracht werden.The invention / innovation consists in that a collecting trough is arranged on the bottom of the container part, the bottom of which is formed by the return spring which is formed obliquely on the outlet slide. As a result, when the outlet slide is moved, the bottom of the collecting trough is also moved up and down, as a result of which the tablets above are set in motion.

Die Erfindung/Neuerung wird beispielsweise dargestellt in Abb.1. als Seitenansicht im Schnitt quer zur Sammelrinne Abb.2. als Vorderansicht im Schnitt längs. durch Sammelrinne Abb.3. wie Abb.2., in gedrückter Stellung des Auslaßschiebers Abb.4. Ansicht von oben auf offenen Einzeldosierer.The invention / innovation is shown for example in Fig.1. as a side view in section across the collecting trough Fig.2. as a front view in longitudinal section. through collecting trough Fig.3. as Fig.2., with the outlet slide in the depressed position Fig.4. Top view of open single dispenser.

Der Einzeldosierer für Tabletten besteht aus einem Behälterteil 1, einem Deckel 2 und Auslaßschieber 3 mit angeformten Rückstellfeder 4. Der Behälterboden 5 weist in Richtung zur Sammelrinne 6 und zum Auslaβschieber 3 ein GefPalle auf. Die Sammelrinne 6 ist etwas breiterals die Dicke einer zu dosierenden Tablette. Den Boden der Sammelrinne 6 bildet die angeformte Feder 4 des Auslaßschiebers 3. Am unteren Ende des Auslaßschiebers 3, über der Feder 4 ist eine Durchlaßöffnung 7, die größer ist, als eine zu dosierende Tablette. Diese Durchlaβöffnung 7 ist in Ruhestellung des Schieberteils 3 nach außen durch die Wand des Behälterteils 1 abgeschlossen. Unterhalb dieser Durchlaßöffnung 7 befindet sich in der Behälterwand eine Freisparung 8, die in gedrückter Stellung des Schieberteils 3 die Auslaßöffnung 7 freigibt. Im Sammelkanal 6, hinter der ersten, an der Auslaß- öffnung 7 liegenden Tablette ist seitlich auf der einen, oder beiden Seiten eine Erhöhung 9 angeformt, die unterhalb der Feder 4 liegt, wodurch bei durchgedrücktem Auslaßschieber 3 die zweite, in der Sammelrinne 6 liegende Tablette am Weiterrollen gehindert wird.The individual dosing device for tablets consists of a container part 1, a lid 2 and outlet slide 3 with molded-on return spring 4. The container bottom 5 has a slope in the direction of the collecting channel 6 and the outlet slide 3. The collecting trough 6 is somewhat wider than the thickness of a tablet to be dosed. The bottom of the collecting trough 6 forms the molded-on spring 4 of the outlet slide 3. At the lower end of the outlet slide 3, above the spring 4 there is a passage opening 7 which is larger than a tablet to be dosed. This passage opening 7 is closed to the outside by the wall of the container part 1 in the rest position of the slide part 3. Underneath this passage opening 7 there is a cutout 8 in the container wall, which releases the outlet opening 7 in the depressed position of the slide part 3. In the collecting channel 6, behind the first tablet lying at the outlet opening 7, an elevation 9 is formed laterally on one or both sides, which lies below the spring 4, so that when the outlet slide 3 is pushed through, the second one lying in the collecting channel 6 Tablet is prevented from rolling on.

Die Erfindung/ Neuerung bezieht sich auf einen Einzeldosierer für Tabletten gemäß Patentanmeldung P 310118.5 mit Gebrauchsmuster-Hilfsanmeldung G 81 00 870.8.The invention / innovation relates to a single dosing device for tablets according to patent application P 310118.5 with utility model auxiliary application G 81 00 87 0 .8.

Der Einzeldosierer für Tabletten besteht aus einem Behälterteil 1, einem Deckel 2 und Auslaßschieber 3 mit angeformter Rückstellfeder 4.The individual dosing device for tablets consists of a container part 1, a lid 2 and outlet slide 3 with molded-on return spring 4.

Die Ausführung ist in Abb. 5. dargestellt.The execution is shown in Fig. 5.

Die zweite, in der Sammelrinne 6 befindliche Tablette wird bei durchgedrücktem Auslaßschieber 3 durch eine, über der Durchlaßöffnung 7 angeformten Steg 10 festgehalten. Der Abstand zwischen Rückstellfeder 4 und Steg 1o ist etwas größer als der Durchmesser einer zu dosierenden Tablette. Wird der Auslaßschieber 3 durchgedrückt, so kann die erste Tablette durch die Freisparung 8 ins Freie fallen. Die Rückstellfeder 4 biegt sich dabei nach oben und hält die dazwischenliegende Tablette fest.The second tablet located in the collecting trough 6 is held in place by a web 10 formed over the passage opening 7 when the outlet slide 3 is pressed through. The distance between return spring 4 and web 1o is slightly larger than the diameter of a tablet to be dosed. If the outlet slide 3 is pushed through, the first tablet can fall outside through the cutout 8. The return spring 4 bends upward and holds the tablet in between.
