  • the invention relates to a dispenser for single-portioned dispensing of tablets, with cylindrical housing, a stroke-limited relocatable Slide and a tablet storage room with subsequent, the tablet thickness corresponding output shaft, at the front end surfaces and profiled flanks are proportionally formed fixed to the housing and proportionately the Sliders are molded.
  • AT-PS 347595 is a dispenser for single-portioned dispensing of tablets known in which a rotary housing mounted in the cylindrical housing peripherally a plurality of at the same time a compartment chamber forming output shafts provides. In the slide on a cone resting tablets Coming gradually into a common tablet storage room. The outer wall of the output shaft represents the cup-shaped housing. Under Rotation arrives, snap-locked, an output shaft step by step a lateral failure opening of the cylindrical housing. Here comes the tablet over a sloping ramp to the outside.
  • a generic dispenser with compartment chamber results from the EP-PS 0345413.
  • the single-portioned dispensing of the tablets does not happen here optically traceable laterally, but from a bottom cover of the soil Donor.
  • the object of the invention is to use a generic dispenser vorsvorteilhaft to form this, with effective Vortler of the tablets.
  • the Slider is designed on a full-length cylinder-concentric and the output shaft is formed following a cylindrically curved transverse window.
  • the feed the output shaft is well regulated. It proves to be moreover as favorable that in the region of the cross window a ramp as a feeder is provided to the output shaft.
  • a sloping ramp offers large inlet field to the output shaft. It is practically the entire Cylinder cross-section usable as load by the tablet material.
  • the illustrated dispenser Sp consists of only two parts, namely a housing 1 and a slider 2, each proportionately provided with the required Functional elements of the so-called donor mechanism.
  • the tablets 3 are refillable received in a tablet storage space V.
  • the lower end of the tablet storage space V forms a bottom 4th Last runs downhill, i. inclined to the longitudinal center axis x-x of the basically rotationally symmetrical designed Spenders Sp.
  • the floor 4 is reached by a made from the bottom of the housing 1 invagination 5. Die Cover this invagination 5, according to the described bottom 4, provides while a ramp 6.
  • the housing 1 According to the circular cross-section of the housing 1 is also the invagination 5 of circular course, except for the area which at the lowest point the ramp 6 in an axially oriented, vertically aligned output shaft 7 passes. There is, as shown in Fig. 4, an inwardly directed Jump made on the indentation 5.
  • the separating mechanism is pronounced in the space won thereby.
  • Hers committee the same is a tablet compartment chamber 8. It comes on the output path arrow W only one tablet 3 under.
  • the in the output shaft 7 ordered following tablets 3 are by a compartment finger 9 at the issue withheld.
  • the tablet storage space V is closed by a cover 10.
  • Latter is formed equal to the cross-sectionally circular slide 2. She takes in the basic position of the donor Sp opposite the tube-like open there End edge 1 'of the housing 1 a defined vertical projection Ü a, which corresponds at least to the output actuating stroke of a tablet 3. insofar can be the exposed area of the guided, basically pot-shaped Use slide 2 as actuating button 11 of the dispenser Sp. The direction of displacement is indicated by arrow P.
  • the actuating button 11 takes, from the outside seen, a slightly convex curve on with arranged in the zenith, Opposite dent 12. This increases the actuation grip.
  • the displacement of the slider 2 in the housing 1 is done against spring force.
  • The is applied by a slightly biased compression spring. Is concrete this is realized by a two-dimensionally curved, a lower one Edge 13 of the slider 2 molded return spring 14. It is the graded lower edge 13.
  • the lower edge in the area of the maximum axial length is declared by 15 (see, for example, Fig. 5).
  • the return spring 14 is one of the cross-sectional circular shape of the dispenser Sp following O.
  • the corresponding elliptical shape Fig. 5 can be removed.
  • the longer ellipse axis extends perpendicular to the longitudinal center axis x-x of the Spenders Sp.
  • the shorter, so space-parallel to the longitudinal central axis x-x oriented Ellipse axis are a connection bridge 16 to the demoted Edge 13 towards and ending approximately at the height of the maximum edge 15 cams 17.
  • the latter acts partially stiffening, so that the spring movement more on the narrower areas of curvature of the return spring 14 goes. same for in principle also with regard to the even wider connection bridge 16.
  • a beyond the edge 15 outgoing cam position or spring extent is usable as spring preload.
  • the return spring 14 takes in the circumferential direction a good third.
  • the rebound release F is thereby by cutting away the adjacent area the wall of the slider 2 is well taken into account.
  • the free punch leads to reclassified lower edge 13.
  • the accommodation space of the return spring 14 is the curvature the same adapted.
  • the corresponding return spring chamber 18 is through an annular gap between a wall 19 of the cylindrical indentation 5 and the corresponding wall 20 of the cylindrical housing 1 achieved.
  • the annular gap width of the return spring chamber 18 is such that the return spring 14 and the wall of the slide 2 slidable in it. It prevails enough clearance between a the return spring 14 radially inwardly supporting Outer wall surface 19 'of the wall 19 of the indentation 5 and the corresponding Inner wall surface 20 'of the wall 20 of the housing first
  • the lower end of the return spring chamber 18 forms according to the Invagination 5 reached, ring-shaped turn 21.
  • the thus achieved Reason of the return spring chamber 18 is denoted by 22.
  • the output shaft 7 is formed by a distance y of the corresponding radially inwardly offset, cylinder-concentrically curved wall 25th the slider 2 and the corresponding inner wall surface 20 'of the cylinder housing wall 20 of the donor Sp.
  • the slider 2 has cylinder-concentric shape along its entire length.
  • the distance y is related radially to the longitudinal center axis x-x. He takes into account the measure of a thickness of a tablet 3, including a small one Tilting game same.
  • the radius is denoted by R.
  • the proportionate of oppositely exposed formations scored output shaft 7 extends funnel-like tapering over the tablet compartment chamber 8, which is also designed by said moldings. This is bounded radially by a portion of said inner wall surface 20 'of the housing 1 and circular parallel through a portion of the outer wall surface 25 'of the wall 25 of the slider 2, more precisely the slide head 24th
