Description

本発明は、主として人工透析に用いる透析液の調製に使用され、粉末状または顆粒状とした固体透析用剤等の薬剤を収納するための薬剤収納容器、その薬剤収納容器を用いて薬剤を所定の濃度に調整するための薬液調製装置、および薬液調製方法に関する。   The present invention is mainly used for the preparation of a dialysis solution used for artificial dialysis, and contains a drug storage container for storing a drug such as a powdered or granular solid dialysis agent, and the drug storage container is used to store a predetermined drug. The present invention relates to a chemical solution preparation device and a chemical solution preparation method.

透析用剤は、透析液を作製するための薬剤である。透析液は、血液透析、血液濾過、腹膜透析等により、本来腎臓が行う機能に代わって体液の老廃物を取り去り、場合によっては血液中に必要な成分を補うために用いられるもので、体液に近い電解質組成を有する水溶液である。   The dialysis agent is a drug for preparing a dialysis solution. Dialysis fluid is used to remove waste fluid from the body instead of the function that the kidney originally performs by hemodialysis, blood filtration, peritoneal dialysis, etc., and in some cases is used to supplement the necessary components in the blood. It is an aqueous solution having a close electrolyte composition.

現在の透析用剤は、一般的には、ナトリウムイオンおよびカリウムイオン等を含む電解質成分である塩化ナトリウム、塩化カリウム、塩化マグネシウム、塩化カルシウムと、ブドウ糖と、pH調整剤(例えば、酢酸と酢酸ナトリウムまたはその混合物、もしくはクエン酸とクエン酸ナトリウム等)とを含む「透析用剤A剤」と、炭酸水素ナトリウムを含む「透析用剤B剤」との2剤構成となっている。   Current dialysis agents are generally sodium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, glucose, and pH adjusters (for example, acetic acid and sodium acetate), which are electrolyte components containing sodium ions and potassium ions. Or a mixture thereof, or “dialysis agent A” containing citric acid and sodium citrate and the like and “dialysis agent B” containing sodium hydrogen carbonate.

透析用剤には、液体型と固体型の2種類の型がある。液体型の透析用剤は、その大部分が水で占められており、重量と容量が大きくなるため、透析医療従事者への運搬作業の負荷が大きく、保管スペースも大きくなってしまう。そのため、近年、透析液を使用する際に、自動の薬剤溶解装置に投入して、水に溶解させて透析液を調製する固体型の透析用剤が急速に普及している。この固体型の透析用剤を収納する容器は、現在、袋式とボトル式がある。   There are two types of dialysis agents, liquid and solid. Since most liquid-type dialysis agents are occupied by water, and the weight and capacity are increased, the load of transportation work for dialysis medical workers is increased, and the storage space is also increased. Therefore, in recent years, when using a dialysis solution, a solid-type dialysis agent that is introduced into an automatic drug dissolution apparatus and dissolved in water to prepare a dialysis solution is rapidly spreading. Currently, there are a bag type and a bottle type for storing the solid-type dialysis agent.

例えば、特許文献1には、袋式の薬剤収納容器を用いた薬剤溶解装置が提案されている。袋式の薬剤収納容器は、可撓性を有するシート材で袋体に構成されているので、使用後の嵩高を減少させることができる利点がある。しかし、袋式の薬剤収納容器は、容器支持部の開封および薬剤を薬剤溶解装置の溶解槽に移送する位置決めが難しく、自動の薬剤溶解装置への適用性にやや難がある。また、袋式の薬剤収納容器を1つ1つ吊り下げレールに取り付けるため、薬剤の投入間違いのリスクがある。さらに、薬剤投入時の薬剤の飛散により薬剤溶解装置の周辺が汚染する可能性がある等の点で改善の余地を残している。   For example, Patent Document 1 proposes a drug dissolution apparatus using a bag-type drug storage container. Since the bag-type medicine container is formed of a flexible sheet material into a bag body, there is an advantage that the bulk after use can be reduced. However, it is difficult for the bag-type medicine container to open the container support and to position the medicine to the dissolution tank of the medicine dissolution apparatus, and it is somewhat difficult to apply to an automatic medicine dissolution apparatus. Moreover, since the bag-type medicine storage containers are attached to the hanging rails one by one, there is a risk of mistaken drug injection. Furthermore, there is room for improvement in that the surroundings of the drug dissolution apparatus may be contaminated by the scattering of the drug when the drug is added.

ボトル式の薬剤収納容器は、自動の薬剤溶解装置にセットすれば、全自動で透析液の調製が可能となり、数量違いや異物混入の可能性は袋式に比べて低い。また、ボトル式は、薬剤の種類等によって、ボトルサイズを変更することによって薬剤の投入間違いを防止することができる。しかし、ボトルは、袋式に比べて剛性の高い材料で構成されているので、使用後空になっても、つぶして容量を小さくし難く、ゴミとして処分する際に嵩張るという問題がある。   If the bottle-type drug container is set in an automatic drug dissolution apparatus, dialysate can be prepared fully automatically, and the possibility of difference in quantity and mixing of foreign substances is lower than in the bag type. Further, in the bottle type, it is possible to prevent a mistake in inputting a medicine by changing the bottle size depending on the kind of the medicine. However, since the bottle is made of a material having higher rigidity than the bag type, there is a problem that even if it becomes empty after use, it is difficult to crush and reduce its capacity, and it becomes bulky when disposed as garbage.

図2に示すように、循環配管34の途中部分(例えば、配管24の途中部分)は、分岐配管38により分岐され、この分岐配管38は、排出バルブ40を介して多人数用透析液供給装置(図示せず)等の透析液供給装置または個人用透析装置等に接続されていてもよい。また、配管のうち分岐部よりも下流側(循環ポンプ22側)には、薬液濃度測定手段として電導度計等からなる濃度計42を備え、循環配管34内に流れる薬液(混合液)の濃度が所定値に到達したか否かを濃度計42により測定して、薬剤が十分に溶媒により所定の濃度に調整されたか否か、言い換えると薬液の調製が完了したか否かを判断できるように構成されていてもよい。分岐配管38による分岐部の位置は、循環配管34の途中部分であればよく、特に制限はない。濃度計42の設置位置は、循環配管34の途中部分であればよく、特に制限はないが、薬液調製槽20であってもよい。   As shown in FIG. 2, an intermediate part of the circulation pipe 34 (for example, an intermediate part of the pipe 24) is branched by a branch pipe 38, and this branch pipe 38 is connected to a multi-person dialysate supply device via a discharge valve 40. It may be connected to a dialysate supply device such as (not shown) or a personal dialyzer. Further, a concentration meter 42 composed of a conductivity meter or the like is provided as a chemical solution concentration measuring means on the downstream side (circulation pump 22 side) of the branch portion in the piping, and the concentration of the chemical solution (mixed solution) flowing in the circulation piping 34. Is measured by the densitometer 42 so that it can be determined whether or not the drug has been sufficiently adjusted to the predetermined concentration by the solvent, in other words, whether or not the preparation of the drug solution has been completed. It may be configured. The position of the branch portion by the branch pipe 38 is not particularly limited as long as it is in the middle of the circulation pipe 34. The concentration position of the concentration meter 42 is not particularly limited as long as it is in the middle of the circulation pipe 34, but may be the chemical solution preparation tank 20.

次に、薬剤収納容器10を用いる薬液調製装置1における薬液調製方法について説明する。   Next, the chemical solution preparation method in the chemical solution preparation apparatus 1 using the chemical container 10 will be described.

まず、図2に示すように、薬液調製槽20には、薬剤32を所定の濃度に調整するための溶媒(例えば、水)30を例えば溶媒供給配管46を通して所定量(具体的には、例えば、薬剤収納部12内に収納された薬剤32の量を溶媒30に混合した場合に、薬液として適した溶液成分濃度が得られるように設定された量)供給して予め貯留しておき、排出バルブ40を閉状態として、薬液調製槽20内の溶媒30が循環ポンプ22の吸入口へ流入するようにしておく。薬剤32が薬液調製槽20内に投入される前に薬液調製槽20に溶媒30が予め貯留されていなくてもよいが、薬剤32が薬液調製槽20内に投入される際の発塵等を抑制するためには、薬液調製槽20に溶媒30を予め貯留しておく方がよい。また、溶媒供給の手段によっては(例えば、流量計等の溶媒供給量測定装置48を用いる場合)、予め全量の溶媒30を薬液調製槽20に供給しなくてもよく、粉末状等の薬剤の場合は発塵が抑制される程度の溶媒30を薬液調製槽20に供給して、循環ポンプ22を稼働させて溶媒または混合液を循環させながら、溶媒30を薬液調製槽20に供給してもよい。   First, as shown in FIG. 2, in the chemical solution preparation tank 20, a predetermined amount (specifically, for example, a solvent (for example, water) 30 for adjusting the drug 32 to a predetermined concentration is supplied through, for example, a solvent supply pipe 46. When the amount of the medicine 32 stored in the medicine storage unit 12 is mixed with the solvent 30, the amount is set so as to obtain a solution component concentration suitable as a chemical solution) and is stored in advance and discharged. With the valve 40 closed, the solvent 30 in the chemical solution preparation tank 20 flows into the suction port of the circulation pump 22. The solvent 30 may not be stored in the chemical solution preparation tank 20 in advance before the drug 32 is charged into the chemical solution preparation tank 20, but dust generated when the drug 32 is charged into the chemical solution preparation tank 20 may be generated. In order to suppress, it is better to store the solvent 30 in the chemical solution preparation tank 20 in advance. Further, depending on the means for supplying the solvent (for example, when using the solvent supply measuring device 48 such as a flow meter), the entire amount of the solvent 30 may not be supplied to the chemical solution preparation tank 20 in advance, In this case, even if the solvent 30 is supplied to the chemical solution preparation tank 20 by supplying the solvent 30 to the extent that dust generation is suppressed and the circulation pump 22 is operated to circulate the solvent or the mixed solution, the solvent 30 may be supplied to the chemical preparation tank 20. Good.

図3に示すように、例えば、シート状の薬剤収納容器10の短手方向の両端部に形成された容器支持部14(例えば、「穴」)を、容器搬送機構16(例えば、「搬送用チェーン」)に接続したピン等の支持部材に引っ掛けることで動力が伝達され、薬剤収納容器10が移動されて、薬剤収納部12が薬液調製槽20の槽開口部36の上方(例えば、直上)まで自動または手動で搬送される。   As shown in FIG. 3, for example, the container support portions 14 (for example, “holes”) formed at both ends in the short direction of the sheet-like medicine storage container 10 are connected to the container transport mechanism 16 (for example, “for transport”). Power is transmitted by being hooked on a support member such as a pin connected to the chain "), the medicine container 10 is moved, and the medicine container 12 is above the tank opening 36 of the drug solution preparation tank 20 (for example, immediately above). It is automatically or manually conveyed.

次に、図4に示すように、例えば、薬液調製槽20の槽開口部36の上方(例えば、直上)にある薬剤収納部12に、図3に示すような略コの字型等の切断機構18が上方から押し当てられることにより、薬剤収納部12の先端部からの一部および後端部からの一部を残してシートから切断されることによって、すなわち、薬剤収納部12の後端部の太い端面を切断せず、例えば、先端部の細い端面の一部を残すように切断することによって、図5に示すように、薬液調製槽20の槽開口部36の上方で切断された薬剤収納部12が、薬剤収納部12の残された後端部からの一部である太い端面部に支持されて下方の薬液調製槽20側に垂れ下がり、先端部の側の開口された開口部44から薬剤収納部12内の薬剤32が流れ落ちるように薬液調製槽20内へ排出される。   Next, as shown in FIG. 4, for example, the drug container 12 located above (for example, directly above) the tank opening 36 of the chemical solution preparation tank 20 is cut into a substantially U-shape or the like as shown in FIG. 3. When the mechanism 18 is pressed from above, it is cut from the sheet while leaving a part from the front end part and a part from the rear end part of the medicine storage part 12, that is, the rear end of the medicine storage part 12 For example, by cutting so as to leave a part of the thin end surface of the tip portion without cutting the thick end surface of the portion, the portion was cut above the tank opening 36 of the chemical solution preparation tank 20 as shown in FIG. The medicine storage part 12 is supported by a thick end surface part that is a part from the remaining rear end part of the medicine storage part 12 and hangs down to the lower chemical solution preparation tank 20 side, and the opening part opened on the tip part side The medicine 32 so that the medicine 32 in the medicine storage section 12 flows down from 44. It is discharged to the preparation tank 20.

このように、例えば、薬剤収納部12の先端部からの一部および後端部からの一部を残してシートから切断されることによって、すなわち、薬剤収納部12の後端部の太い端面を切断せず、例えば、先端部の端面の一部を残すように切断することによって、開口部44が細くなるように形成され、先端部の細い端面の開口部44から薬剤32が流れ落ちて薬液調製槽20内へ投入されるため、自動の薬液調製装置への適用性に優れる。また、薬剤収納部12の開口部44から空気等の気体が巻き込まれにくく、薬剤32が気流を乱さずにまとまって投入されるので投入の際の発塵が抑制され、薬液調製装置1の周辺部が汚染される、薬液調製装置を設置した環境が汚染される等の問題が抑制される。   Thus, for example, by cutting from the sheet leaving a part from the front end part and a part from the rear end part of the medicine storage part 12, that is, the thick end surface of the rear end part of the medicine storage part 12 For example, by cutting so as to leave a part of the end face of the distal end portion without cutting, the opening 44 is formed to be thin, and the drug 32 flows down from the opening 44 on the thin end face of the distal end portion, thereby preparing the drug solution. Since it is put into the tank 20, it is excellent in applicability to an automatic chemical preparation apparatus. In addition, a gas such as air is difficult to be caught from the opening 44 of the medicine container 12, and the medicine 32 is put together without disturbing the air flow, so that dust generation at the time of feeding is suppressed, and the periphery of the medicine preparation device 1 Problems such as contamination of the part and contamination of the environment in which the chemical preparation apparatus is installed are suppressed.

複数の薬剤収納部12が1つのシート状に連結されていることにより、可撓性を有するシート材で袋体であっても薬剤収納部12の開封および薬剤収納部12内の薬剤32を薬液調製槽20に移送する位置決めがしやすく、薬液調製装置を自動化することができる。また、複数の薬剤収納部12が1つのシート状に連結されているため、薬剤の投入間違いのリスクを防止することができ、また、大量の薬剤を一度に薬液調製装置にセットできる。   By connecting a plurality of medicine storage parts 12 in a single sheet shape, the medicine storage part 12 can be opened and the medicine 32 in the medicine storage part 12 can be stored in a chemical solution even if it is a bag with a flexible sheet material. Positioning to transfer to the preparation tank 20 is easy, and the chemical solution preparation apparatus can be automated. In addition, since the plurality of medicine storage units 12 are connected in a single sheet shape, the risk of mistaken drug insertion can be prevented, and a large amount of medicine can be set in the chemical solution preparation device at one time.

容器支持部14と容器搬送機構16とにより、薬剤収納容器10が移動されて、薬剤収納部12が薬液調製槽20の槽開口部36の上方(例えば、直上)まで的確に搬送される。薬剤収納部12の開封および薬剤収納部12内の薬剤32を薬液調製槽20に移送する位置決めがしやすく、容器搬送機構16により薬剤収納容器10を自動で搬送すれば薬液調製装置を自動化することができる。1袋毎の袋形状の容器の場合、移送の位置決めを行うのは困難である。   The drug storage container 10 is moved by the container support unit 14 and the container transfer mechanism 16, and the drug storage unit 12 is accurately transferred to above the tank opening 36 (for example, directly above) of the chemical solution preparation tank 20. It is easy to open the medicine container 12 and position the medicine 32 in the medicine container 12 to be transferred to the chemical solution preparation tank 20, and if the medicine container 10 is automatically conveyed by the container conveyance mechanism 16, the chemical solution preparation apparatus can be automated. Can do. In the case of a bag-shaped container for each bag, it is difficult to position the transfer.

そして、薬液調製装置1では、例えば制御部により循環ポンプ22が駆動され、薬剤32および溶媒30の混合液が薬液調製装置1内の循環流路である循環配管34により、薬液調製槽20、配管24、循環ポンプ22、配管26、薬液調製槽20の順に循環され、薬剤32が溶媒30へ十分に混合されて所定の濃度の薬液が調製される。薬剤32の薬液調製槽20内への投入の前に循環ポンプ22が駆動されてもよい。   In the chemical solution preparing apparatus 1, for example, the circulation pump 22 is driven by the control unit, and the mixed solution of the drug 32 and the solvent 30 is connected to the chemical solution preparing tank 20 and the piping by the circulation pipe 34 that is a circulation channel in the chemical solution preparing apparatus 1. 24, the circulation pump 22, the pipe 26, and the chemical solution preparation tank 20 are circulated in this order, and the drug 32 is sufficiently mixed with the solvent 30 to prepare a chemical solution with a predetermined concentration. The circulation pump 22 may be driven before charging the drug 32 into the chemical solution preparation tank 20.

電導度計等の濃度計42により薬液が所定の濃度に達することで適切に濃度調整作業が完了されたことが確認された後に、例えば制御装置により循環ポンプ22が停止される。薬液調製槽20内の薬液は、排出バルブ40が開状態とされて、分岐配管38を通して多人数用透析液供給装置等の透析液供給装置等に薬液が供給される。   After it is confirmed by the concentration meter 42 such as a conductivity meter that the concentration adjustment operation has been properly completed by the chemical solution reaching a predetermined concentration, the circulation pump 22 is stopped by, for example, the control device. The chemical solution in the chemical solution preparation tank 20 is supplied to a dialysate supply device such as a multi-person dialysate supply device through the branch pipe 38 with the discharge valve 40 opened.

本実施形態に係る薬液調製装置1および薬液調製方法は、主として人工透析に用いる透析液の調製に使用され、粉末状または顆粒状とした固体透析用剤等の薬剤を所定の濃度に調整するためのものである。上記各実施形態では、薬液調製装置1で濃度を調整する薬剤として透析用剤を一例として説明したが、これに限定されない。すなわち、溶媒に溶解される固体の薬剤(顆粒剤や粉末剤)や、コロイド状態、濃厚液状態等の液体の薬剤等であればどのようなものでも利用することができる。   The chemical solution preparation apparatus 1 and the chemical solution preparation method according to the present embodiment are mainly used for preparation of a dialysis solution used for artificial dialysis, in order to adjust a drug such as a powdered or granular solid dialysis agent to a predetermined concentration. belongs to. In each of the above embodiments, the dialysis agent has been described as an example of the drug whose concentration is adjusted by the drug solution preparation device 1, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, any solid drug (granule or powder) dissolved in a solvent or liquid drug such as a colloidal state or a concentrated liquid state can be used.

薬液調製槽20は、所定量の溶媒30、または薬剤32と溶媒30との混合液を収容可能であり、薬剤32を溶媒30により所定の濃度に調整して薬液を調製可能な槽であればよく、特に制限はない。薬液調製槽20は、薬液調製槽20内の溶媒30、または薬剤32と溶媒30との混合液を撹拌するための撹拌羽根等を有する撹拌装置を備えてもよい。   If the chemical | medical solution preparation tank 20 can accommodate the predetermined amount of the solvent 30 or the liquid mixture of the chemical | medical agent 32 and the solvent 30, and can adjust the chemical | medical agent 32 to the predetermined | prescribed density | concentration with the solvent 30, it is a tank which can prepare a chemical | medical solution. Well, there are no particular restrictions. The chemical solution preparation tank 20 may include a stirring device having a stirring blade or the like for stirring the solvent 30 in the chemical solution preparation tank 20 or a mixed solution of the drug 32 and the solvent 30.

薬液調製槽20は、切断された薬剤収納部12が下方の薬液調製槽20側に垂れ下がる際に、薬剤収納部12内の薬剤32ができるだけ飛散しないように、薬液調製槽20の開口部44の周囲の少なくとも一部に、開口部44から上方の薬剤収納容器10側に所定の角度で突出したガイド部28を有していてもよい。ガイド部28により、切断された薬剤収納部12が下方の薬液調製槽20側に垂れ下がる際に落ちた薬剤32を、薬液調製槽20内へ導くことができる。   The medicinal solution preparation tank 20 has an opening 44 of the medicinal solution preparation tank 20 so that the medicine 32 in the medicine storage unit 12 is not scattered as much as possible when the cut medicine storage unit 12 hangs down to the lower drug solution preparation tank 20 side. You may have the guide part 28 which protruded at the predetermined angle to the chemical | medical agent storage container 10 upper side from the opening part 44 in at least one part of circumference | surroundings. The guide part 28 can guide the medicine 32 that has fallen when the cut medicine storage part 12 hangs down to the lower side of the medicine preparation tank 20 into the medicine preparation tank 20.

溶媒供給量測定装置48としては、溶媒供給配管46に設置する流量計の他に、薬液調製槽20に設置するフロートスイッチ、重量計等であってもよい。   The solvent supply amount measuring device 48 may be a float switch, a weight meter, or the like installed in the chemical solution preparation tank 20 in addition to a flow meter installed in the solvent supply pipe 46.

循環配管34としては、溶媒30、または薬剤32および溶媒30の混合液が流動することができるものであればよく、特に制限はないが、例えば、内径5〜25mmの樹脂製、金属性等の配管が用いられる。   The circulation pipe 34 is not particularly limited as long as the solvent 30 or a mixed solution of the drug 32 and the solvent 30 can flow. For example, the circulation pipe 34 is made of a resin having an inner diameter of 5 to 25 mm, metallic, or the like. Piping is used.

薬液濃度測定手段である濃度計42としては、薬剤32と溶媒30との混合液中の薬剤32の濃度を測定することができるものであればよく、特に制限はないが、例えば、電導度計、超音波濃度計、屈折計、分光光度計等が挙げられる。   The densitometer 42 which is a chemical concentration measuring unit is not particularly limited as long as it can measure the concentration of the drug 32 in the mixed solution of the drug 32 and the solvent 30. For example, an electric conductivity meter An ultrasonic densitometer, a refractometer, a spectrophotometer, and the like.

薬剤収納容器10は、可撓性を有するシート材、例えばポリエチレン等の合成樹脂で構成されている。薬剤収納容器10は、例えば、後端部から先端部に向かうにつれて細くなるテーパー状の複数の空洞部(袋体)がシートの長手方向に沿って並んで形成されるように、2枚以上の樹脂シートを貼り合わせて形成される。薬剤収納部12の薬剤に接触する部分は、耐薬品性を有する材料、例えば、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリ塩化ビニル等の合成樹脂で構成されることが好ましい。薬剤収納容器10の表面側は、ある程度の剛性を持たせるためにポリエチレンテレフタレート等により補強してもよい。薬剤収納容器10は、可撓性を有するシート材で構成されているので、袋式と同様に保管時および使用後の嵩高を容易に減少させることができる。   The medicine container 10 is made of a flexible sheet material, for example, a synthetic resin such as polyethylene. The medicine storage container 10 is formed of, for example, two or more sheets such that a plurality of tapered hollow portions (bags) that become narrower from the rear end portion toward the front end portion are aligned along the longitudinal direction of the sheet. It is formed by laminating resin sheets. The portion of the medicine storage portion 12 that comes into contact with the medicine is preferably composed of a chemical-resistant material, for example, a synthetic resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or polyvinyl chloride. The surface side of the medicine container 10 may be reinforced with polyethylene terephthalate or the like in order to give a certain degree of rigidity. Since the medicine container 10 is made of a flexible sheet material, the bulkiness during storage and after use can be easily reduced in the same manner as the bag type.

薬剤収納部12は、袋状に構成され、所定の量の薬剤を収納可能な大きさであればよい。1つの薬剤収納容器10のシート内の薬剤収納部12の数には特に制限はないが、例えば、2個〜100個程度であり、通常は10個〜50個程度である。   The medicine storage unit 12 may be configured in a bag shape so long as a predetermined amount of medicine can be stored. There is no particular limitation on the number of drug storage units 12 in the sheet of one drug storage container 10, but it is, for example, about 2 to 100, and usually about 10 to 50.

薬剤収納部12の形状は、袋状に構成されているものであればよく、特に制限はない。薬剤収納部12の形状は、例えば、図1、図3および図6(a)や、図6(b)に示すように、後端部から先端部に向かうにつれて細くなるテーパー状の袋状に構成されているものである。また、図6(c),(d),(e),(f)に示すように、後端部から先端部に向かう途中から、先端部にかけて細くなる袋状に構成されているものであってもよい。薬剤収納部12の形状は、長方体等の袋状に構成されているものであってもよいが、後端部から先端部に向かうにつれて細くなるテーパー状の袋状に構成されているものであることが好ましい。   The shape of the medicine container 12 is not particularly limited as long as it is configured in a bag shape. The shape of the medicine container 12 is, for example, a tapered bag shape that becomes narrower from the rear end toward the front end as shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 6A, and 6B. It is configured. Further, as shown in FIGS. 6C, 6D, 6E, and 6F, it is configured in a bag shape that narrows from the middle toward the front end portion from the rear end portion toward the front end portion. May be. The shape of the medicine container 12 may be configured as a bag such as a rectangular parallelepiped, but is configured as a tapered bag that becomes thinner from the rear end toward the front end. It is preferable that

薬剤収納部12の先端部のテーパー状の角度は、薬剤収納部12に収納される薬剤の崩壊角よりも大きい角度の形状に設定されていることが好ましく、薬剤の安息角以上であることがより好ましい。   The taper-shaped angle of the distal end portion of the medicine storage portion 12 is preferably set to a shape having an angle larger than the collapse angle of the medicine stored in the medicine storage portion 12, and is greater than or equal to the repose angle of the medicine. More preferred.

薬剤を薬剤収納部12内に収納するには、例えば、2枚のシートを後端部から先端部に向かうにつれて細くなるテーパー状になるような空洞部が形成されるように熱溶着する。次に、この空洞部に薬剤を充填した後に、開口した空洞部の末端を熱溶着することで薬剤収納部12に薬剤を収納すればよい。   In order to store the drug in the drug storage unit 12, for example, two sheets are heat-welded so as to form a hollow portion that becomes tapered from the rear end portion toward the front end portion. Next, after filling the cavity with the drug, the drug may be stored in the drug storage unit 12 by thermally welding the end of the opened cavity.

切断機構18は、薬剤収納部12の先端部からの一部および後端部からの一部を残してシートから切断することができる、すなわち、薬剤収納部12の後端部の太い端面を切断せず、先端部の端面の一部を残すように切断することができるものであればよく、特に制限はない。例えば、図3に示すような、後端部から先端部に向かうにつれて細くなるテーパー状の袋状に構成されている薬剤収納部12の後端部の太い端面を切断せず、先端部の細い端面の一部を残すように切断することができる略コの字型のカッター等が挙げられるが、これに限定されない。ここで、「切断」とは、カッター(刃物)等の切断器具により所定の形状に「断ち切る」ことの他に、薬剤収納容器10のシート部に予め所定の形状に形成したミシン目や切欠きのような脆弱部に押圧器具等により力を加えて「押し破る」こと等も含む。   The cutting mechanism 18 can cut from the sheet leaving a part from the front end part and a part from the rear end part of the medicine storage part 12, that is, cutting a thick end surface of the rear end part of the medicine storage part 12. No limitation is imposed as long as it can be cut so as to leave a part of the end face of the tip portion. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the thick end surface of the rear end part of the medicine storage part 12 configured in a tapered bag shape that becomes thinner from the rear end part toward the front end part is not cut, and the front end part is thin. Examples include, but are not limited to, a substantially U-shaped cutter that can be cut to leave a part of the end face. Here, “cutting” means “cutting” into a predetermined shape with a cutting tool such as a cutter (cutlery), and perforations or notches formed in a predetermined shape in the sheet portion of the medicine container 10 in advance. It also includes “pushing and breaking” by applying a force to the fragile part with a pressing device or the like.

切断機構18による切断は、薬剤収納部12の先端部の側に開口部44を形成し、開口部44以外からは薬剤が漏れないようにし、後端部の太い端面部に薬剤収納部12が支持されて下方に垂れ下がるように切断すればよく、切断形状には特に制限はない。例えば、図3に示すように、後端部から先端部に向かうにつれて細くなるテーパー状の袋状に構成されている薬剤収納部12の後端部の太い端面を切断せず、先端部の細い端面の一部を残すように、略コの字型の形状で切断すればよい。また、図7(a)に示すように、長方体等の袋状に構成されている薬剤収納部12の後端部の太い端面を切断せず、先端部の一方の角部を残すような形状で切断してもよく、図7(b)に示すように、長方体等の袋状に構成されている薬剤収納部12の後端部の太い端面を切断せず、先端部の一部を切り欠くように残すような形状で切断してもよく、図7(c)に示すように、長方体等の袋状に構成されている薬剤収納部12の後端部の太い端面を切断せず、先端部の両方の角部を残すような形状で切断してもよい。図7(c)の切断の場合、薬剤収納部12の袋の中央部(図7(c)において点線で示す)を境に両側が垂れ下がり、薬剤が落ちる機構としてもよい。   In the cutting by the cutting mechanism 18, an opening 44 is formed on the side of the distal end portion of the medicine storage portion 12 so that the medicine does not leak from other than the opening 44, and the medicine storage portion 12 is formed on the thick end surface portion of the rear end portion. What is necessary is just to cut | disconnect so that it may be supported and hang down below, and there is no restriction | limiting in particular in a cut shape. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the distal end portion is thin without cutting the thick end surface of the rear end portion of the medicine container 12 that is configured in a tapered bag shape that becomes thinner from the rear end portion toward the distal end portion. What is necessary is just to cut | disconnect by a substantially U-shaped shape so that a part of end surface may be left. Further, as shown in FIG. 7A, the thick end face of the rear end portion of the medicine storage portion 12 configured in a bag shape such as a rectangular parallelepiped is not cut, and one corner portion of the front end portion is left. As shown in FIG. 7B, the thick end face of the rear end portion of the medicine storage portion 12 configured in a bag shape such as a rectangular parallelepiped is not cut, and the tip end portion is cut. It may be cut in a shape so as to leave a part cut away, and as shown in FIG. 7C, the rear end portion of the medicine storage portion 12 configured in a bag shape such as a rectangular parallelepiped is thick. You may cut | disconnect in a shape which does not cut | disconnect an end surface but leaves both corner | angular parts of a front-end | tip part. In the case of the cutting shown in FIG. 7C, a mechanism may be adopted in which both sides hang down from the center of the bag of the medicine container 12 (indicated by a dotted line in FIG. 7C) and the medicine falls.

切断機構18による切断において、薬剤収納部12の先端部の薬剤32の量をできるだけ少なくして開封のときの切断精度を向上させることが好ましい。この場合、薬剤収納部12の先端部の薬剤32の量ができるだけ少なくなるように、例えば、先端部が少し高くなる傾斜状態または水平状態で切断することが好ましい。   In the cutting by the cutting mechanism 18, it is preferable to improve the cutting accuracy at the time of opening by reducing the amount of the medicine 32 at the tip of the medicine container 12 as much as possible. In this case, for example, it is preferable that the cutting is performed in an inclined state or a horizontal state in which the tip part is slightly raised so that the amount of the medicine 32 at the tip part of the medicine storage unit 12 is as small as possible.
