Definitions

  • the following description relates to a pill cartridge for a medication packaging apparatus, and more specifically, to a pill cartridge with a stopper whose height can be freely adjusted to the shape of a pill and be installed therein.
  • the medication packaging apparatus has multiple pill cartridges, which are arranged in multiple layers at an upper portion to contain various types of pills.
  • the pills contained in the pill cartridges may be selectively discharged under the user's control by use of a computer interfaced with the pill cartridges, and the pills discharged from the pill cartridges are collected in a hopper, and then packaged in a packaging unit located in a lower portion of the medication packaging apparatus.
  • the pill cartridge has an opening for dispensing pills at a lower portion of a case, and a cylindrical rotor above the dispensing opening with a plurality of "guide-teeth" and pill insertion grooves along its circumference.
  • the rotor is connected to a rotator placed under the dispensing opening. The rotor rotates along with the rotator, which is rotated by a rotation motor.
  • a large number of pills are contained in the case of the pill cartridge, and a single pill or a predetermined number of pills are stored in each pill insertion groove between the guide-teeth of the rotor disposed below the case.
  • the pill insertion grooves change positions, and each is sequentially brought into line with the dispensing opening, such that the pills in the pill insertion grooves are discharged through the dispensing opening.
  • a pill stopper is provided at the top of the dispensing opening. The pill stopper closes the top of the pill insertion grooves that are placed in line with the dispensing opening, so as to prevent other pills contained in another pill insertion groove from being discharged through the dispensing opening.
  • Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0438560 discloses a coupling projection unit on one side of a pill case to allow for the installation of a pill separation plate, which is equivalent to a pill stopper.
  • the coupling projection unit includes inserting projections on each side.
  • the pill case has an insertion hole at a position corresponding to the center of the coupling projection unit.
  • the pill separation plate with fixed projections is inserted into the insertion hole.
  • a cover having inserting grooves formed on both sides thereof is attached to the coupling projection unit.
  • an insertion hole has to be altered in accordance with the width and height of pill insertion grooves of the new rotor, so as to allow the pill separation plate to be inserted through the case, and thus difficulties in efficiently adapting to the rotor replacement occur.
  • a pill cartridge for a medication packaging apparatus with a stopper capable of being flexibly and conveniently adjusted corresponding to different shapes of pills.
  • a pill cartridge for a medication packaging apparatus includes: a rotor to have a plurality of gear members protruding at regular intervals along a circumference of the rotor and to have an insertion groove formed between the plurality of gear members to thereby accommodate a pill; and a case to comprise a collection chamber to accommodate the pill therein, a rotor housing portion at a lower portion of the collection chamber to house the rotor, and a dispensing opening formed on a lower portion of the rotor housing portion, wherein further comprises a stopper of a planar shape to be additionally disposed above the dispensing opening to close a top of the insertion groove, wherein the case comprises an installation opening of a size that allows a height of the stopper to be adjustable when the stopper is inserted in the case, wherein the installation opening is formed by an opening portion on one side of the case, and wherein further comprises a stopper cover, which is coupled to the opening portion and comprises a plurality of slits

  • the height of the stopper 300 is able to be adjusted within the installation opening 240 to correspond to the changed height of the insertion grooves 120.
  • the stopper 300 is coupled to the stopper cover 400 at the adjusted height. Therefore, it is possible to flexibly and conveniently deal with the change of the height of the insertion hole 120 for different types of pills.
  • one side of the stopper 300 which faces the rotor 100, may be concave in form with a curved line so as to have a curvature similar or identical to a circumference curvature of the rotor 100.
  • the stopper 300 may adhere to a surface of the circumference of the rotor 100, so that the pill accommodated in the collection chamber 210 may not be lost through a gap between the rotor 100 and the stopper 300.
  • the stopper 300 may include: a stopper body 310 to close the top of insertion grooves 120 positioned to be connected to the dispensing opening 230; first extension ends 320 to extend from each side of the stopper body 310 toward the stopper cover 400; second extension ends 330 that are bent inward and extend from the respective first extension ends 320.
  • the stopper cover 400 may include: a cover body 410 to be coupled to the case 200 so as to close the opening portion 250; and a height adjustment portion 420.
