The storage 15 includes a drawer container 21, a storage body 22 (shown by a broken line in the figure) that stores the drawer container 21, and an opening / closing drive unit that supports the drawer container 21 movably and is fixed to the storage body 22. 23 and a display panel 25 attached to the drawer container 21.

  The opening / closing drive unit 23 is pulled out from the storage body 22 so that the opening 24 of the drawer container 21 comes out, and the storage 15 is placed in a medicine removal state, or the opening 24 is covered with the ceiling of the storage body 22. In this manner, the drawer container 21 is pushed into the storage body 22 to place the storage 15 in the medicine storage state.

  Next, details of each configuration of the tray 11, the tray management device 12, the automatic dispenser 13, and the medicine shelf 14 will be described using the functional block diagram of FIG.

  The tray 11 has an identification tag such as an RFID or a barcode, and a tray identification number that is a unique identification number of the tray 11 can be detected from the identification tag. In the first embodiment, a barcode tag 31 is used as an identification tag.

  The tray management device 12 includes a tray information recording unit 32 that records dispensing information, tray identification number, and the like of each patient, and personnel information management in which the personnel information of the aligner registered in the medicine assembling support system 10 is recorded. And a LAN connection unit 34 for transmitting and receiving information by connecting the automatic dispensing machine 13 and the medicine shelf 14 via a LAN.

  The automatic dispenser 13 includes a first identification number detection unit 36 that detects the identification number of the tray 11 from the barcode tag 31, and a dispensed drug detection unit that detects drug collection information indicating a drug dispensed to each area of the tray 11. 37 and a LAN connection unit 38 for transmitting and receiving information.

  The medicine shelf 14 identifies a dispensing information holding unit 40 that holds dispensing information of medicines to be collected, a display unit 41 that displays the names of medicines to be collected in the tray 11 in each area, and a person who prepares medicines in the medicine shelf 14 And an auditing unit 43 for authenticating that the medicines arranged in each area of the tray 11 are audited by the sorter.

  Further, the medicine shelf 14 has a second identification number detection unit 44 that detects the identification number of the tray 11 from the barcode tag 31 and a medicine number attached to the medicine when the medicine is taken out from the storage 15 and put into the tray 11. The collected information detection unit 45 that reads from the barcode that is the identification tag, the open / close control unit 46 that controls the drive of the open / close drive unit 23, and the display panel control that gives an instruction of display contents to the display panel 25 attached to the drawer container 21 A unit 47, a LAN connection unit 48 that transmits and receives information, and a storage close condition determination unit 49 that determines that the storage 15 is closed based on the detection status of the dispensing information and the collection information detection unit 45. .

  The person authentication unit 42 has a biometric authentication function such as a fingerprint, a face, a vein, and an iris, and performs personal authentication using this biometric authentication function. In the first embodiment, since personal authentication can be performed even when both hands are occupied, it is assumed that iris authentication is used. In the following description, a case where iris authentication is used is described.

  As described above, the collection information detection unit 45 that detects drug information and the opening / closing drive unit 23 that automatically closes the storage 15 are provided to collect the necessary medicine after the necessary medicine is taken out from the storage 15. When the medicine detected and detected by the information detection unit 45 satisfies the required storage close condition, the storage 15 can be automatically closed, and it is not necessary to close the take-out port by the hand of the aligner.

  Next, an operation of automatically closing the storage case 15 when the medicine is arranged in the medicine shelf 14 using the medicine assembling support system 10 will be described.

  First, when dispensing information is input, the automatic dispenser 13 dispenses the first medicine that can be dispensed by the automatic dispenser 13 to a predetermined area of the tray 11 according to the dispensing information. The first drug referred to here is a general drug that can be handled even without a pharmacist's qualification. In addition, the first medicine includes unmanaged medicine that does not require strict management by a pharmacist.

  Then, the dispensing information, the tray identification number detected by the first identification number detection unit 36, and the medicine collection information obtained by the dispensed medicine detection unit 37 are transferred from the LAN connection unit 38 via the network to the tray management device. 12 is recorded in the tray information recording unit 32. In the tray information recording unit 32, a new tray identification number, dispensing information, and dispenser collection information are added to the tray management table 39 shown in FIG. The information added here is the dispenser medicine collection information in the row of the tray identification number 0004.

  In addition, although the numbers 001, 002, and 003 are given to the dispensing information shown in FIG. 4, this number is a number that indicates a region (regions 17, 18, and 19) of a tray in which medicines are arranged. The dispensing information of the tray identification number 0004 includes the region-specific dispensing information “one medicine A, one medicine C, one medicine D” in the tray 001 area, and the area-specific dispensing information “one medicine A, one medicine in the tray 002 area. The “B 2” and the area-specific dispensing information of the tray 003 area include “1 drug A, 1 drug C”. Thus, when medicine is prepared for each region, the dispensing information is composed of a plurality of region-specific dispensing information.

  The tray 11 from which the medicine has been dispensed by the automatic dispensing machine 13 is carried to the medicine shelf 14. Then, the medicines to be put in the tray 11 are prepared and put into the tray 11 by an assortment person having a pharmacist qualification.

  FIG. 5 is a view of the work table 16 of the medicine shelf 14 as viewed from above. The work table 16 includes a display unit 41 which is a touch monitor, a tray mounting unit 52 provided at a position adjacent to the display unit 41, and a barcode reader 53. The tray mounting portion 52 is slightly recessed, and the tray 11 can be placed in this recess.

  FIG. 6 is a view of the work table 16 of the medicine shelf 14 when the tray 11 is placed on the tray placement unit 52 as viewed from above. The tray 11 is placed on the tray placing unit 52, the barcode tag 31 is read by the barcode reader 53, and the tray identification number of the tray 11 is detected. The barcode reader 53 is located in the reading port of the second identification number detection unit 44, and the tray identification number is calculated by the second identification number detection unit 44. Here, the barcode reader 53 is described as having a movable reading section. However, when the barcode reader 53 is embedded in the work table 16 and the tray 11 is placed on the tray mounting section 52. In addition, the barcode tag 31 can be automatically read. In this case, it is necessary to align the direction of the tray 11 to a specified direction, but the operation for reading the barcode tag 31 can be eliminated, and the load on the operator can be reduced.

  Then, this tray identification number is sent to the tray information recording unit 32 of the tray management device 12, checked against the tray management table 39, and the dispensing information (dispensing information on the tray identification number 0004 line) prepared in this tray is stored in the medicine shelf 14. It transmits to the dispensing information holding part 40. In the medicine shelf 14, the name of the second medicine to be prepared in the medicine shelf 14 is displayed on the display unit 41 based on the dispensing information held in the dispensing information holding unit 40. At this time, the dispensing information includes the first medicine and the like, but only the second medicine stored in the medicine shelf 14 is displayed.

  The second drug referred to here is a drug that requires a pharmacist's qualification to handle, and is generally called a special drug or a management drug. Many special drugs correspond to powerful drugs, poisons, narcotics, and anticancer drugs. The dispensing information held by the dispensing information holding unit 40 is taken from the tray management device 12 via the network. However, the dispensing information is recorded on a recording medium or a two-dimensional barcode, and the medicine shelf 14 directly reads the dispensing information. The dispensing information holding unit 40 may hold the dispensing information.

  The medicine C and the medicine D displayed on the display unit 41 are second medicines that can be arranged on the medicine shelf 14, and in the assembling stage, the names and numbers of these second medicines are the areas 17 and 18 of the tray 11. , 19 are displayed on the display unit 41 side by side. That is, a display area 55 is displayed beside the area 17, a display area 56 is displayed beside the area 18, and a display area 57 is displayed beside the area 19. The display area 55 displays the name of the medicine to be entered into the area 17, the display area 56 displays the name of the medicine to be entered into the area 18, and the display area 57 displays the name of the medicine to be entered into the area 19.

  In FIG. 6, one medicine C and one medicine D are put in the area 17, and one medicine C is put in the area 19, and no new one is instructed in the area 18. . Further, the outer frame of the display area 55 is highlighted with a double frame, and is displayed more conspicuously than the display area 56 and the display area 57. This is a display for arranging medicines in the region 17 corresponding to the display area 56 displayed prominently.

  Then, the drug collector uses the iris authenticator of the human authentication unit 42 to perform authentication. The person authentication unit 42 makes an inquiry to the human resource information management unit 33 as to who this sorter is and whether this sorter has a pharmacist qualification.

  If the assorter is registered in the human resource information management unit 33 and has a pharmacist qualification, the assortment of medicines stored in the storage 15 of the medicine shelf 14 is permitted. That is, the storage 15 in which the medicine C and the medicine D are stored is opened, and the medicine C and the medicine D can be taken out by the collector.

  FIG. 7 is a schematic configuration diagram of the upper medicine shelf 14 in which a part of the storage 15 is opened, and FIG. 8 is a flowchart in which the medicine shelf 14 opens and closes the storage 15.

  First, a case where medicines in the region 17 of the tray 11 are prepared will be described. The dispensing information holding unit 40 of the medicine shelf 14 detects from the information in the tray management table 39 that the medicine 17 and the medicine D are insufficient in the area 17 of the tray 11. Based on the detection information of the dispensing information holding unit 40, the opening / closing control unit 46 opens the storage to the opening / closing drive unit 23a of the storage 15a holding the medicine C and the opening / closing drive 23b of the storage 15b holding the medicine D. (Step S01). The open / close drive units 23a and 23b pull out the drawer containers 21a and 21b so as to exit the openings 24a and 24b of the drawer containers 21a and 21b. Thereby, storage 15a, 15b changes from a medicine storage state to a medicine taking-out state. At this time, in response to an instruction from the display panel control unit 47 based on the detection information of the dispensing information holding unit 40, the display panel 25a on the front surface of the extraction container 21a displays “1 drug C”, and the display of the extraction container 21b. The display panel 25b on the front displays “1 drug D”. That is, the number of medicines to be taken out from the storage box 15 is displayed on the display panel 25 (display panels 25a and 25b) of the storage box 15 (storage boxes 15a and 15b) in the medicine removal state. Thereby, the aligner can take out the medicine C and the medicine D by putting their hands through the openings 24 (openings 24a and 24b).

  The assorter who has been authenticated by the iris authenticator 102 of the person authentication unit 42 takes out one medicine C from the withdrawal container 21a according to the display instruction on the display panel 25a of the withdrawal container 21a, and uses the barcode reader 101 to barcode the medicine C. (Step S02) and is loaded into the area 17 of the tray 11. The collection information detection unit 45 subtracts one display on the display panel 25a corresponding to the read medicine in accordance with the reading information of the medicine C of the barcode reader 101. That is, the display panel 25a displays “0 medicines C”. Here, the barcode reader 101 is used for the detection of the medicine (barcode reading), but the barcode reader 53 can also be used.

  At this time, the storage close condition determination unit 49 receives the detection result of the medicine from the collection information detection unit 45, and determines whether or not to close the storage compared with the dispensing information held by the dispensing information holding unit 40. (Step S03). The storage closing condition of the storage 15a is drawn when the collection information detection unit 45 detects the necessary number of medicines held in the storage 15a based on the description information of the region-specific dispensing information. The storage 15a is closed. Similarly, the storage close condition of the storage 15b is pulled out when the collection information detection unit 45 detects the necessary number of medicines held in the storage 15b based on the description information of the region-specific dispensing information. The storage case 15b is closed.

  Here, the area-specific dispensing information in the area 001 of the tray identification number 0004 line shown in the tray management table 39 is “1 medicine A, 1 medicine C, 1 medicine D”, and the storage boxes 15a, The medicines held in 15b are medicine C and medicine D, and the medicine that has been detected is one medicine C. Therefore, since the medicine C matches the storage close condition, the storage 15a is closed under the control of the open / close control unit 46 according to the determination of the storage close condition determination unit 49 (step S04). Here, since the storage 15b is still open (the storage 15 is not all closed) (NO in step S05), the collection information detection unit 45 detects the medicine again (step S02).

  According to the display on the display panel 25b of the drawer container 21b, the assorter takes out one drug D from the drawer container 21b, reads the barcode of the drug D with the barcode reader 101 (step S02), and puts it into the area 17 of the tray 11 To do. The collection information detection unit 45 subtracts one display on the display panel 25b corresponding to the read medicine in accordance with the reading information of the medicine D of the barcode reader 101, and the display panel 25b displays “0 medicines C”. .

  At this time, the storage close condition determination unit 49 receives the detection result of the medicine from the collection information detection unit 45, and determines whether or not to close the storage compared with the dispensing information held by the dispensing information holding unit 40. (Step S03). Since the medicine D detected is one medicine D and the medicine D matches the storage close condition, the open / close control unit 46 controls to close the storage 15b according to the determination of the storage close condition determination unit 49 ( Step S04). As a result of closing the storage 15b, all the storages are closed (YES in step S05), so that the medicine cannot be taken out from the medicine shelf 14.

  The barcode reader 101 (barcode reader 53) is in the reading port of the collection information detection unit 45, and the collection information detection unit 45 detects the drug collection information. The display panel control unit 47 obtains information on which medicine has been detected by the collected information detection unit 45 and subtracts and displays the number of the medicines displayed on the display panel. The storage close condition determination unit 49 receives the detection result of the medicine from the collection information detection unit 45, and determines whether or not to close the storage compared with the dispensing information for each region of the dispensing information held by the dispensing information holding unit 40. Determine. When one medicine C is detected, the storage close condition determination unit 49 determines that the storage 15a is closed, issues an instruction to the opening / closing control unit 46, and the opening / closing drive unit 23a of the storage 15a pushes the drawer container 21a back to open. Cap 24a. Subsequently, when one drug D is detected, the storage close condition determination unit 49 determines that the storage 15b is closed, issues an instruction to the opening / closing control unit 46, and the open / close drive unit 23b of the storage 15b opens the drawer container 21b. Push back and cover the opening 24b. As a result, the collector cannot take out a new medicine from the medicine shelf 14.

  As described above, when the collection information detection unit 45 and the opening / closing drive unit 23 are linked, the collection information detection unit 45 detects a necessary number of medicines to be arranged in the region 17 of the tray 11 from the storage boxes 15a and 15b. The drawer containers 21a and 21b are automatically pulled back. Therefore, it is not necessary for the sorter himself to manually close the drawer containers 21a and 21b. As a result, it is possible to eliminate slipping off of the medicine accompanying the closing operation of the drawer container 21. Further, when the necessary number of medicines in the storage 15a are detected, the storage 15a is automatically closed. Therefore, even when the storage 15b is directly below the storage 15a, the medicine can be taken out from the storage 15b. There are no obstacles. In the first embodiment, the case where all the necessary medicine storages 15 are opened has been described. However, it may be controlled to open the storages 15 one by one in order. In this case, for example, if the extraction of the medicine is detected by providing a detection part of the operator's hand using infrared rays or the like on the upper part of the drawer container 21, it is not necessary to detect the medicine with the barcode 101.

  When the collection information detection unit 45 detects the necessary number of medicines C and D to be put in the region 17 of the tray 11 after waiting for about 2 to 3 seconds, the outer frame of the display area 55 is displayed as a double frame. Instead, the outer frame of the display area 57 changes to a double-frame display, and becomes more conspicuous than the other display areas 55 and 56. Then, the storage 15a for storing the medicine C is opened, and the medicine C can be taken out. And the number which should be taken out from the storage 15a is displayed on the display panel 25a of the storage 15a.

  According to the display on the display panel 65 of the drawer container 63, the assorter takes out one medicine C from the drawer container 63, reads the barcode of the medicine C with the barcode reader 101, and puts it into the area 19 of the tray 11. One display panel 65 is subtracted in accordance with the reading information of the medicine C of the barcode reader 101, and the display panel 65 displays “0 medicines C”.

  When the collection information detection unit 45 detects one medicine C, the second medicine to be prepared from the storage 15a has been prepared. Therefore, the storage close condition determination unit 49 determines to close the storage 15a. The opening / closing control unit 46 instructs the opening / closing drive unit 23a to close the storage 15a, and the opening / closing drive unit 23a pulls back the drawer container 21a so that the opening 24a does not appear outside. Then, since the opening 24a is closed, the assorter cannot take out the medicine C.

  As a result of the above operation, since the medicine replenishment assembling to the areas 17 and 19 of the tray 11 where the medicine is insufficient has been completed, an alert sound is sounded after a few seconds, and the orderer confirms whether or not the medicine is properly ordered. An audit is conducted. The sorter touches the area indicated as “complete” shown on the display unit 41 if the sorting is performed correctly. Then, the auditing unit 43 authenticates that the audit has been performed.

  Since the medicine shelf 14 automatically opens and closes the storage 15 by linking the collection information detection unit 45 and the opening / closing drive unit 23, the sorter opens and closes the medicine storage with the medicine. No more to do. In addition, by opening and closing the storage 15 of the medicine shelf 14 for each of the areas 17, 18, and 19 of the tray 11, it is possible to reduce mistakes in putting medicines in the respective areas.

  The medicine shelf 14 according to the first embodiment is configured to open the take-out port of the storage 15 to be stocked for each area of the tray 11 at the same time. You may make it open a mouth in order. In particular, the storage immediately above the iris authenticator 102 that performs human authentication can be arranged in the following order to prevent the storage from colliding with the head or body of the aligner when the storage is opened.

  Note that the tray 11 for collecting medicines in the medicine shelf 14 according to the first embodiment is not necessarily divided into the plurality of areas 17, 18, and 19, and one area may be provided. Further, the medicine transport container for collecting medicine is not limited to the tray 11 and may be a medicine bag or the like. Further, the storage 15 is not limited to the above-described drawer type, and may be one that opens and closes an opening with a door or one that opens and closes with a shutter.

(Embodiment 2)
FIG. 9 is a view of the work table 71 of the medicine shelf 14 according to the second embodiment of the present invention as viewed from above.

  The medicine shelf 14 according to the second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in which medicines are prepared for each of the regions 17, 18, and 19, whereas in the second embodiment, medicines are arranged in order for the same type. is there.

  The medicine C displayed on the display unit 72 is a second medicine that can be arranged on the medicine shelf 14, and the name and number of these second medicines correspond to the areas 17, 18, and 19 of the tray 11 at the preparation stage. Are displayed on the display unit 72 side by side. That is, a display area 73 is displayed beside the area 17, a display area 74 is displayed beside the area 18, and a display area 75 is displayed beside the area 19. The display area 73 displays the name of the medicine to be entered into the area 17, the display area 74 displays the name of the medicine to be entered into the area 18, and the display area 75 displays the name of the medicine to be entered into the area 19.

  Here, one medicine C and one medicine D are put in the area 17, and one medicine C is put in the area 19, and no new medicine is put in the area 18.

  Then, the person who has the medicine uses the iris authenticator 102 of the person authentication unit 42 to perform authentication. The person authentication unit 42 makes an inquiry to the human resource information management unit 33 as to who this sorter is and whether this sorter has a pharmacist qualification.

  If the assorter is registered in the human resource information management unit 33 and has the pharmacist qualification, the drug assortment is permitted. That is, the outlets of the storages 15a and 15b for storing the medicines C and D as the second medicine written in the dispensing information appear, and the medicines C and D can be taken out.

  Here, when the medicine C is taken out and the barcode of the medicine C is read by the barcode reader 101, the outer frames of the display areas 73 and 75 where the medicine C is displayed as shown in FIG. It is displayed prominently from the display area 74. This means that the medicine C is put into the areas 17 and 19.

  Two medicines C are taken out from the storage 15a, read by the barcode reader 101, and put into the areas 17 and 19 one by one. Then, the takeout port of the storage 15a holding the medicine C is closed. The storage close condition at this time is to close the storage 15a when a necessary number of one kind of medicine in the dispensing information is detected.

  A few seconds after the storage 15a is closed, the outer frames of the display areas 73 and 75 displayed in the double frame become the same single frame as the display area 74 and become inconspicuous.

  Thereafter, when the medicine D is taken out from the storage 15b and read by the bar code reader 101, the outer frame of the display area 73 is displayed as a double frame and is displayed more conspicuously than the display areas 74 and 75. Then, the takeout port of the storage box 15b is closed, and the outer frame of the display area 73 displayed with a double frame after a few seconds becomes the same single frame as the display areas 74 and 75, and becomes inconspicuous.

  If the medicines are arranged in order for the same type in this way, the number of times of opening and closing of the storages 15a and 15b is reduced, so that the medicines can be efficiently arranged.

  The medicine shelf 14 according to the second embodiment is configured to open the outlet of the storage 15 to be stocked in the tray 11 at the same time. You may make it open and close. At this time, when collecting a plurality of medicines in the storage box 15, if the collection information detection unit 45 detects the medicines, the display area of the display unit 72 corresponding to the area of the tray 11 to which the medicines are to be loaded is sequentially doubled. Make the line display or red display stand out, and instruct the distributor where to put the medicine. When the collection information detection unit 45 detects that the required number of medicines have been taken out from the opened storage case 15, the storage case 15 is closed and the next storage case for medicines to be prepared is opened. Thus, by sequentially opening and closing the storage box 15, the order of medicines to be arranged can be designated, so that dangerous medicines contained in fragile containers can be carefully arranged at the end.

  In the first or second embodiment, the order in which the storage immediately above the iris authenticator 102 that performs human authentication can be opened is the last order in the assembling work. Thereby, immediately after the aligner authenticates the iris, the overhead storage 15 is opened, and it is possible to prevent the open storage 15 from colliding with the aligner's head.

  The automatic opening and closing medicine shelf according to the present invention is useful as a medicine shelf for collecting medicines because the storage is automatically switched from the medicine removal state to the medicine storage state when the detected medicines are in a certain condition.
