Definitions
- the invention relates to a system for personal placement of drug dispensers with administration units - tablets, dragees, capsules - of drugs to be taken in a defined time sequence of patients, the drugs are arranged in a correlated with the time of use arrangement in the drug donor, wherein the medicaments are provided in standard blister packs arranged in "vertical" stacks containing a plurality of stacked standard blister packs comprising a defined number of trough-blister blisters each covered with a blister pack and with the other, in the The preamble of claim 1, genus-determining features.
- the system comprises deblistering devices, which convey an automatic, occasional removal of the medicaments from the blister packs, which can then be introduced with a delivery device into receiving compartments of the respective medicament dispenser, which are assigned to the individual administration units.
- a transport device by means of which the delivery of medicament dispenser takes place to the respective delivery device, for their automatic placement electrically controllable drives for the Entblist fürsvorraumen, the Zustellein- direction and the donor transport are provided, whose control mediates an electronic control unit, which consists of a processing machine- nerslesbarer personal data that are readable and processable in a well-defined correlation with the transport of the drug donor, which generates necessary for the placement process control signals.
- rotatable blister storages are provided within subunits of the overall system, which to this extent has a modular design, within which the individual medicaments are assigned relatively narrow sector areas, within each of which a stack of a specific type of blister is arranged.
- the standard blister type required in each case for equipping the medication dispenser currently to be filled is brought into an issue position by turning the accumulator, in which the deblistering takes place by means of suitable tools and subsequently the entry of the deblistered medicament into the respective medicament dispenser.
- a deblistering and loading unit In a typical design of such a deblistering and loading unit, it is arranged between two rotatable medicament stores, which are used alternately to provide blisters for dispensing, these units - two cylindrical columnar storages and the deblistering and equipping unit - a module of the system as it were which in itself fulfills the basic functions of the plant.
- This results in an extension the known plant on a heightened variety of drugs requires a relatively large effort, since an increase in capacity to a module comprising two symmetrically arranged rotary magazines for at least twelve different drug types, in a variety of cases practically implies an unreasonably high cost.
- the plant according to the earlier patent application is designed for a placement of drug dispensers, which have a quasi single-row arrangement of storage compartments, d. H. a configuration that is well-suited to provide a patient's daily needs, but not for an orderly intake of a total weekly requirement, as appropriate for long-lasting treatments and therefore often required.
- the system according to the earlier patent application is subject to cycle time limitations because of the relatively large cylindrical storage space, since, depending on the localization of the medicament blister in the rotary magazine, relatively large angles of rotation must be passed in order to approach the equipping position and relatively large masses must be moved so that, regardless of the possibility of using high-performance drives, increased time required arises that high spins are to be avoided, since they only lead to unwanted forces on the drugs and can damage them, which is unacceptable would.
- the object of the invention is therefore to improve a system of the type mentioned in that at a relatively low design effort increased assembly performance - increased number populated drug dispenser in the unit time - achieved and the system in a simple manner sufficient in a desired placement capacity configuration can be brought. - A -

Accordingly, within the transport area, which leads across the entire plant from plant to module module, four trajectories for drug dispensers specified in each of which one of the Ranzeitzeilen their receiving compartments is guided past the output openings of the modules, on the placement of the compartments of the respective time line can be done.
- the arrangement of the respective successive medicament dispensers is selected so that from donor to donor, the time line, which can be equipped, changes, for example, such that, after the receiving compartments z.
- the night line of a "preceding" drug dispenser is equipped, next the evening line of the following to be fitted weekly drug dispenser is equipped and then the next week donor, the receiving pockets of his daily intake line and finally the next medication donor Morgennahookief kauer the morning income line - the considered reference plant module 17th / i - be populated, whereupon again the night line of the next drug dispenser is filled, etc.
- the transport device In order for a supply of medicament dispensers 11 / i to be able to be equipped as required with very different combinations of medicaments, the transport device must be designed and controllable such that each of the receiving compartments 14 / i of the drug delivery belts 11 / i has exactly once each the insertion openings of the assembly modules 17 / i has been passed before it is removed from the assembly. discharged and the intended use in the patient can be supplied.
- control signals are - suitably clock-controlled - generated in such a way that the transport and the various processes, which are necessary in total for the placement of the medicament dispenser, can be synchronized in a simple manner.
- the patient-related data are hereby stored in machine-readable form on data carriers which are transported in a spatially defined correlation with respect to the drug dispenser to be loaded by the transport device 18 and are already detected by means of reading devices with which the component modules 17 / i are in turn equipped. before they have to be usable to control the individual functional units.
- an arrangement of the reading station with respect to the output station controlled by it is expedient in that read-in of the data is already possible or takes place before the medication dispenser 11 to be loaded has arrived at the respective dispensing station.
- the drug donors, z. B. expediently provided with printable fields in the area their receiving compartments overhead parts on the means of the modules 17 / i each individually assigned, not shown pressure equipment protocol information can be printed on the basis of which the assembly of the respective drug donors can be reconstructed, which for reasons of fault tolerance or any required error analysis may be of importance.
- safety devices also include sensor devices of the most varied types, which for simplicity also serve as control devices which continuously monitor the defibrillation of the standard blisters and the loading of the medicament dispensers with the medicament units taken from the standard blisters, wherein the equipping operations are expediently quantitative and not just randomly monitored.
- sensor devices of the most varied types, which for simplicity also serve as control devices which continuously monitor the defibrillation of the standard blisters and the loading of the medicament dispensers with the medicament units taken from the standard blisters, wherein the equipping operations are expediently quantitative and not just randomly monitored.
- optical monitoring devices are used, which enable a medication-friendly control operation.
- the structure of the so far explained plant (s) 10 from plant modules 17 / i, each associated with a single drug type, d. H. the "dissolution" of the plant into the smallest possible units, each of which can function independently, offers the greatest possible freedom with regard to the design of the topology of the plant, ie. H. the guidance of the transport route from the blister opening, d. H. the introduction of medication dispensers in the transport area of the plant until the removal of the dispensed drug dispensers from the plant.
- the entrance and exit are arranged spatially adjacent to each other, wherein in the sense of good space utilization even meandering configurations of the transport path, possibly even three-dimensional guides are possible, which allows a total compact design of the system with the widest possible space utilization ,
