The slide base 61 and the bottom contact portion 62 may be configured to be fixed to the bag body placement portion 58 so as not to advance or retreat with respect to the medicine insertion port 60.

  And in the bag body mounting part 58 of the discharge | emission operation part 44, the supply port 10 of the dissolution tank 8 is provided in the state penetrated up and down. The supply port 10 is arranged in an inclined state with respect to the center axis of the cylinder while offsetting the axis from the center axis of the dissolution tank 8. Therefore, when water and chemicals circulated by the dissolution pump 11 flow out from the lower end opening of the supply port 10 (opening on the dissolution tank 8 side), the water and chemicals swirl along the inner periphery of the dissolution tank 8 and dissolve. The inside of 8 can be stirred to make it easier to dissolve the drug.

  Next, the operation of the dialysis drug dissolving device 1 having the above-described configuration will be described. As preparations for dissolving the drug, the cam followers 20 of the respective hangers 15 are engaged (placed) on the upper surface of the fixed cam 21, and the respective hangers 15 are arranged at the positions raised to the top dead center. It is assumed that the hanger 15 does not hold the medicine storage bag body 3 and the hanging attachment 30. The dissolution tank 8 has a predetermined amount of water for dissolving the drug in advance (specifically, an amount capable of generating dissolved water having a predetermined concentration with respect to the amount of drug in one drug storage bag body 3). Only supplied from the water supply pipe via the dissolution pump 11 and stored. Further, the discharge switching valve is operated to connect the discharge port 11 b of the dissolution pump 11 and the supply port 10 of the dissolution tank 8, and the water supply switching valve is operated to connect the suction port 11 a of the dissolution pump 11 and the dissolution tank 8. It is set so that the water in the dissolution tank 8 can be circulated through the dissolution pump 11 when communicating with the discharge port 9 and operating the dissolution pump 11.

  First, the rotary head 4 is rotated to place the hanger 15 on the bag supply stage 36, and the medicine storage bag 3 held by the hanging attachment 30 is moved from the suspension rail 41 to above the bag supply stage 36. The medicine storage bag body 3 is suspended and hung on the hanger 15 and held.

  When the medicine storage bag body 3 is held on the hanger 15 on the bag body supply stage 36, the rotary head 4 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise to transfer the medicine storage bag body 3 onto the lump collapse stage 37. When the rotary head 4 is stopped and the medicine storage bag body 3 is disposed on the lump collapse stage 37, the lump collapse mechanism 42 is operated, and the drug storage bag body 3 is moved to the side by the pressing portion 43 of the lump collapse mechanism 42. Press from the side to collapse the internal drug mass. Therefore, the medicine lump can be broken in a state of being housed in the medicine storage bag body 3, and the medicine can be easily flowed down from the medicine storage bag body 3 with the bottom 23 opened. Moreover, it can prevent that a chemical | medical agent is thrown into the dissolution tank 8 with a lump, and can make it easy to melt | dissolve a chemical | medical agent.

  If the medicine lump is broken in the lump collapse stage 37, the rotary head 4 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise, and the drug container bag 3 with the broken drug lump is transferred above the drug discharge stage 38. When the rotary head 4 is stopped and the medicine storage bag body 3 is disposed on the medicine discharge stage 38, the bottom 23 of the medicine storage bag body 3 hung on the hanger 15 is disposed immediately above the opening cutter 64 (FIG. 7). In addition, the cam follower 20 of the hanger 15 is engaged with the engagement receiving portion 51 protruding upward from the notch portion 21a of the fixed cam 21 (see (a)). If the cam follower 20 and the engagement receiving part 51 are engaged, the bag body raising / lowering mechanism 45 is operated, the rack gear 50 and the engagement receiving part 51 are lowered, and the medicine storage bag body 3 together with the hanger 15 is moved to the bag body raising / lowering mechanism. Lower by 45. Then, when the bottom 23 of the medicine storage bag body 3 hits the cutting blade 65 of the opening cutter 64 and the medicine storage bag body 3 is further lowered to the bottom dead center by the bag body lifting mechanism 45, the cutting blade 65 of the opening cutter 64 is moved to the medicine. The bottom portion 23 of the storage bag body 3 is opened and opened (see FIG. 7B), the bottom contact portion 62 fits into the recess 67 of the medicine storage bag body 3, and the bottom contact surface 68 stores the medicine. It contacts the bottom 23 of the bag 3. In this way, the bottom 23 of the medicine storage bag 3 can be opened with a simple configuration. Further, the medicine storage bag body 3 with the bottom 23 opened can be stabilized on the medicine discharge stage 38, and the medicine storage bag body 3 falls down carelessly or deviates from the medicine input port 60, so that the medicine becomes the medicine. Scattering on the discharge stage 38 can be suppressed. As a result, it is possible to suppress problems such as contamination of the inside and the periphery of the dialysis drug dissolving device 1 due to dust generation when being introduced into the dissolution tank 8, or malfunction of the device. In addition, since the bottom contact portion 62 is set to a size and a shape that can be fitted and positioned in the recess 67 of the medicine storage bag body 3, the medicine storage bag body 3 is further stabilized on the medicine discharge stage 38. Can be arranged.

  Since the unloading cutter 64 has the medicine flow-down empty portion 69 formed at a position lower than the cutting edge 65, the drug flow-down empty portion 69 can reach the inside of the bottom portion 23. Therefore, the medicine stored near the bottom 23 first flows into the medicine flow-down empty portion 69 and starts to flow down, so that the medicine can be prevented from staying in balance inside the medicine storage bag 3. From this, even if the medicine storage bag 3 is opened, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of a problem that the medicine inside does not flow down, and it is possible to quickly carry out the medicine charging operation. Further, since the medicine flow-down empty portion 69 is constituted by the through opening, the medicine can be caused to flow in the lateral direction, and the medicine can be further retained in the bottom portion 23 of the medicine storage bag body 3. Can be prevented.

  If the medicine storage bag body 3 is lowered to the bottom dead center and the opening (bottom opening) 71 is opened at the bottom 23 by the cutting blade 65, then the medicine storage bag body 3 is slightly raised by the bag body lifting mechanism 45. Stop. Specifically, the cutting blade 65 rises and stops within a range in which it does not come out of the opened bottom opening 71 of the medicine storage bag body 3. Then, the opening cutter 64 is slightly pulled out from the bottom portion 23, and the edge of the opened bottom portion opening 71 is turned downward by the pulling operation of the opening cutter 64 (see FIG. 7C). Therefore, even if the medicine storage bag 3 is opened and the edge of the bottom opening 71 is in close contact with the side of the opening cutter 64, the contact state between the edge of the bottom opening 71 and the opening cutter 64 can be eliminated. Furthermore, the medicine can be guided between the opening cutter 64 and the edge of the bottom opening 71.

  When the medicine storage bag body 3 is stopped, the medicine in the medicine storage bag body 3 is discharged from the opened bottom opening 71 and flows down through the medicine inlet 60 opened below, and is dissolved in the dissolution tank 8. It is thrown into. Therefore, the medicine storage bag body 3 can be opened by simply moving the medicine storage bag body 3 up and down, and the medicine can be put into the dissolution tank 8. From this, it is possible to realize the dialysis drug dissolving apparatus 1 capable of performing an opening operation with a simple structure. In addition, it is possible to quickly perform the operation of charging the medicine, and to improve the efficiency of the work of dissolving the medicine and thus the preparation of the dialysate. Since the bottom opening 7 of the bag body 3 is directly connected to the medicine inlet 60 of the dissolution tank 8, the medicine is collected between the bottom opening 71 and the dissolution tank 8 and is brought into the dissolution tank 8. There is no need to provide a hopper or chute for guidance. Therefore, it can be configured not to place an obstacle that can collide with the medicine that is flowing down in the middle of the medicine flow path. This makes it difficult for the medicine discharged from the medicine storage bag body 3 to generate dust while flowing down, and can suppress the problem of contamination of the inside and the periphery of the dialysis medicine dissolving apparatus 1.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the medicine storage bag body 3 is slightly raised from the bottom dead center and stopped, in other words, even when the medicine is discharged. The bottom contact portion 62 is fitted into the recess 67 at the bottom of the body 3. Therefore, the medicine storage bag body 3 can be positioned so that its bottom opening 71 does not deviate from above the medicine inlet 60, and the medicine can be smoothly put into the dissolution tank 8 without spilling. Furthermore, the medicine storage bag body 3 fitted with the bottom abutting portion 62 is maintained in a state where the lower end of the medicine storage bag body 3 sufficiently covers the medicine inlet 60 as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 3 and FIG. 5, the lower end of the medicine storage bag body 3 and the periphery of the opening edge of the medicine inlet 60 are in contact with each other. Therefore, even if the medicine is put into the dissolution tank 8 and generates dust, the medicine is in the medicine. It is possible to suppress the upward movement from the charging port 60, and the periphery of the dialysis drug dissolving apparatus 1 can be made difficult to be contaminated by the drug.

  When the medicine storage bag body 3 stops on the medicine discharge stage 38 and starts to discharge the medicine, the discharge assist mechanism 46 is operated and the body portion 22 of the medicine storage bag body 3 is hit by the contact portion 54. Gives vibration and promotes drug discharge. Therefore, the medicine can be put into the dissolution tank 8 without remaining in the medicine storage bag body 3, and the medicine can be surely dissolved at a specified concentration. In addition, after the medicine storage bag body 3 is opened, the discharge assist mechanism 46 strikes the body portion 22 to give vibration to start the medicine discharge before starting the medicine discharge. Good.

  When the medicine has been supplied from the medicine storage bag body 3, the medicine storage bag body 3 which has been emptied by the bag body lifting mechanism 45 is raised to the top dead center, and the rotating head 4 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise. The empty medicine storage bag body 3 is transferred onto the bag body collection stage 39. When the rotary head 4 is stopped and the empty medicine storage bag body 3 is arranged on the bag body recovery stage 39, the empty medicine storage bag body 3 is removed from the hanger 15 and recovered into the recovery box. Further, if the rotary head 4 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise, the hanger 15 from which the medicine storage bag body 3 has been removed can be placed on the bag body supply stage 36, and the medicine storage bag body 3 is newly suspended. You can be ready. The collected medicine storage bag 3 can be easily reduced in volume by being crushed.

  In addition, when the drug is introduced by the above-described operation, the dissolution pump 11 is operated, and water and the drug are circulated and stirred between the dissolution tank 8 and the dissolution pump 11. When the medicine is sufficiently dissolved, the dissolution pump 11 is temporarily stopped, the discharge switching valve is switched to convert the discharge pipe and the discharge port 11b of the dissolution pump 11 into a communication state, and the supply port of the dissolution tank 8 10 and the discharge port 11b of the dissolution pump 11 are converted to a shut-off state, and the dissolution pump 11 is operated again. Then, the dissolved water is sent from the dissolution tank 8 to the discharge pipe and is collected in a dissolved water collection container (not shown) provided on the downstream side of the discharge pipe.

  In this way, the drug storage bag 3 containing the agent A is set in the drug dissolving device 1 for dialysis for agent A, and a 9 L (liter) A stock solution is prepared in the dissolution tank 8 for agent A, and B The drug storage bag 3 containing the drug is set in the drug dissolving apparatus 1 for dialysis for B drug, and 11.34 L of B stock solution is prepared in the dissolution tank 8 for B drug. And if it mixes by the ratio of A stock solution: B stock solution: water = 1: 1.26: 32.74, 315L dialysate can be prepared.

  In the present embodiment, the four hangers 15 are respectively arranged in the rotary head 4 at positions shifted in phase by 90 degrees about the rotation axis 5, and four different stages 36 to 39 are 90 about the rotation axis 5. Therefore, the rotary head 4 can be stopped and the hangers 15 can be arranged one by one on the respective stages 36 to 39. Therefore, the step of hanging the medicine storage bag body 3 on the hanger 15, the step of crushing the drug mass in the medicine storage bag body 3, the step of discharging the medicine from the medicine storage bag body 3, and the empty medicine storage bag from the hanger 15 The process of removing the body 3 can be performed simultaneously. Therefore, a plurality of drug dissolution operations (preparation of dialysis stock solution) performed in batch processing can be performed simultaneously by shifting the steps, and the efficiency of the drug dissolution operation can be improved.

  Moreover, although the chemical | medical agent flow empty space 69 was comprised by the through-opening part opened by penetrating the opening cutter 64 in the thickness direction, this invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, a plurality of vertically long flow guide grooves 73 may be formed side by side on both front and back side portions of the opening cutter 64, and the flow guide grooves 73 may be configured as a drug flow empty space 69. It is preferable because the medicine that has entered the vertically flowing guide groove 73 is guided downward and easily flows down to the medicine inlet 60.

  In the above-described embodiment, the medicine is set in the dissolving tank 8 in which water is stored in advance, and then the water and the medicine are circulated and stirred to perform the dissolving operation. However, the present invention is limited to this. Instead, for example, the water in the dissolution tank 8 may be circulated by the dissolution pump 11, and the drug and the drug may be added to the dissolution tank 8 in this state to stir the water and the drug. In short, any procedure may be used as long as the water and the chemical charged in the dissolution tank 8 can be stirred to dissolve the chemical in water.

  In addition, the present invention is not limited to disposing the dissolution tank 8 below the drug discharge stage 38, and it is only necessary that the drug discharge stage 60 faces the inside of the dissolution tank 8.
