Description

この発明は、薬品払出装置等の自動調剤機と共に設置して用いられる調剤監査支援装置に関し、詳しくは、自動調剤機から個々に払い出されて搬送されて来た薬品類を個々に受け入れて撮像してから集合させるとともに、その撮像に基づいて調剤監査支援用の薬品情報を取得する調剤監査支援装置に関する。   TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a dispensing inspection support apparatus that is installed and used together with an automatic dispensing machine such as a medicine dispensing apparatus. More specifically, the present invention accepts and individually captures chemicals that are individually dispensed and conveyed from an automatic dispensing machine. In addition, the present invention relates to a dispensing audit support apparatus that collects medicine information for dispensing audit support based on the imaging.

薬品類としてアンプル入り注射薬を取り扱う注射アンプル自動供給装置が知られている(例えば特許文献1参照)。この装置には、本体部と搬送手段とセット装置が具備されており、それらがその順に並べんで連結されている。そのうち本体部は、各種の注射薬をストックしていてそのなかから必要な注射薬を自動的に取り出すようになっているので、薬品類を個々に払い出す自動調剤機に該当すると言える。そして、注射アンプル自動供給装置から個々に払い出された注射薬は、搬送手段によってセット装置のところへ搬送され、個々にセット装置へ送り込まれるようになっている。   An injection ampoule automatic supply device that handles an ampoule-containing injection as a chemical is known (for example, see Patent Document 1). This apparatus is provided with a main body part, a conveying means, and a set apparatus, which are arranged and connected in that order. Among them, the main body stocks various injections and automatically takes out necessary injections from them, so it can be said that it corresponds to an automatic dispensing machine that dispenses chemicals individually. The injections dispensed individually from the automatic injection ampoule supply device are transported to the set device by the transport means and individually sent to the set device.

また、セット装置は、搬送手段から送り込まれた注射薬を個々に受け入れるとともに、受け入れた注射薬を傾斜板経由で整列ケースに並べて収容するようになっているが、その傾斜板にはアンプル情報検出センサが配置されていて、傾斜板上を回転しながら落ちる注射薬からアンプル情報が読み取られ、その情報と処方箋データとの照合結果がプリントされるようになっているので、搬送されて来た注射薬を個々に受け入れて撮像してから集合させるとともにその撮像に基づいて調剤監査支援用の薬品情報を取得する調剤監査支援装置に該当すると言える。   In addition, the set device individually receives the injections sent from the conveying means and arranges the received injections in an alignment case via an inclined plate. The inclined plate detects ampule information. The ampule information is read from the injection that falls while rotating on the inclined plate, and the verification result of the information and prescription data is printed. It can be said that it corresponds to a dispensing audit support apparatus that collects medicines for dispensing audit support based on the imaging while accepting the drugs individually and collecting them.

なお、このようなセット装置では傾斜板上を回転落下する注射薬の姿勢が乱れていると情報の読取や整列収容が的確に行えないので、前段の搬送手段は、注射薬を空中へ放出して傾斜板上へ落下させるものでなく、そのようになりがちな水平方向搬送ベルトコンベアだけにととまらず、垂直方向搬送ベルトコンベアも具備していて、垂直方向搬送ベルトコンベアの櫛歯状リテーナで注射薬を掬い上げて注射薬の姿勢を整えるとともに、リテーナの櫛歯状部分と傾斜板の櫛歯状部分とが噛み合うときに注射薬を転動させてセット装置へ送り込むことで、注射薬を空中へ放出することなく安定姿勢のまま傾斜板上へ送り込むことができるものとなっている。   In such a setting device, if the posture of the injection that rotates and falls on the inclined plate is disturbed, information cannot be read and aligned properly, so the transport means in the previous stage releases the injection into the air. In addition to the horizontal conveyor belt conveyor that tends to be so, it is also equipped with a vertical conveyor belt conveyor, with a comb-shaped retainer of the vertical conveyor belt conveyor As the injection drug is scooped up and the posture of the injection drug is adjusted, the injection drug is rolled and fed into the setting device when the comb-like part of the retainer and the comb-teeth part of the inclined plate mesh with each other. It can be fed onto the inclined plate in a stable posture without being released into the air.

薬品類として錠剤を取り扱う調剤装置も知られており(例えば特許文献2参照)、これには、錠剤分包機とそれに両脇から連結設置された錠剤識別装置および計数監査装置とが具備されている。そのうち錠剤分包機は、各種の錠剤を多数の錠剤フィーダに収容していて処方箋データや調剤指示に応じて必要な錠剤を一錠ずつ排出させるとともに服用単位等で複数錠剤を纏めて包装帯に分包するようになっている点では一般的なものであるが、個別監査にも資するため、フィーダ排出後で分包前の錠剤を一錠ずつ錠剤識別装置へ送り込んで空中へ放出することで錠剤識別装置に引き渡す錠剤搬送部が組み込まれている。   Dispensing devices that handle tablets as chemicals are also known (see, for example, Patent Document 2), which includes a tablet packaging machine and a tablet identification device and a counting inspection device connected to both sides of the tablet packaging machine. . Among them, the tablet dispensing machine stores various tablets in a number of tablet feeders, discharges one tablet at a time in accordance with prescription data and dispensing instructions, and collects multiple tablets into a packing band by taking dosage units. Although it is general in that it is designed to be packaged, in order to contribute to individual audits, tablets can be sent to the tablet identification device one by one after dispensing the feeder before unpacking and released into the air. The tablet conveyance part delivered to the identification device is incorporated.

また、錠剤識別装置は、一錠ずつ空中へ放出されて落下して来た錠剤を載置機構の錠剤載置枠の中に受け入れて撮像装置にて撮像し、その撮像に基づくマイクロプロセッサ等の情報処理装置での画像処理と認識処理にて個別監査用の薬品情報を取得して画面表示等を行うとともに、撮像後の錠剤を錠剤分包機へ送り返して分包に供するものであるが、空中落下後の受入錠剤は姿勢や位置が乱れがちなので、その安定・整定を図るため錠剤の個別撮像の前に錠剤載置枠を自転的に局所で回転させて錠剤を枠内中心側に寄せる位置規制を行い、撮像後に錠剤載置枠を公転的に水平面内で移動させて錠剤を返送用引き渡し位置に移すようになっている。そして、それらの自転的運動と公転的運動との具現化に際しては、運動部材も、駆動部材も、自転用と公転用とで別の部材が装備されている。なお、計数監査装置は、撮像対象が連続した分包体なので、送り機構の構成等も異なっている。   In addition, the tablet identification device accepts the tablets that have been released into the air one tablet at a time into the tablet placement frame of the placement mechanism and images them with an imaging device. Acquires chemical information for individual audit by image processing and recognition processing in the information processing device and displays it on the screen etc., and sends the tablets after imaging back to the tablet packaging machine for packaging. Since the posture and position of the receiving tablet after dropping tends to be disturbed, the position to rotate the tablet mounting frame locally and bring the tablet closer to the center in the frame before individual imaging of the tablet to stabilize and stabilize it Regulation is performed, and after imaging, the tablet placement frame is revolved in a horizontal plane to move the tablet to the return delivery position. Then, when realizing the rotational motion and the revolving motion, the motion member and the drive member are equipped with different members for rotation and revolution. In addition, since the counting inspection apparatus has a continuous package of imaging objects, the configuration of the feeding mechanism and the like are also different.

さらに、取扱対象の薬品類を上述したアンプル入りの注射薬や裸の錠剤だけでなくカプセル剤や,PTP包装剤,輸液バッグ等にも広げた監査支援装置も知られているが(例えば特許文献3参照)、この装置では、最終監査が念頭におかれているので、複数の薬品類が一括撮像され、撮影台上の薬品類の位置や姿勢の修正等が人手に委ねられている。
また、取扱対象の薬品類が輸液ボトルのような転がり難い薬品類でも良く,転がり易いものでも良く,更にはアンプル・バイアル・造影剤等の容器入り注射薬や,箱・ボトル等に収容された錠剤・散剤・軟膏・目薬等の医薬品,その他の補助薬品等でも良くなった薬品類払出装置も知られている(例えば特許文献4参照)。
Furthermore, there are also known audit support apparatuses in which the chemicals to be handled are expanded not only to the above-mentioned injections with ampoules and naked tablets but also to capsules, PTP packaging agents, infusion bags, etc. (for example, patent documents) In this apparatus, since the final audit is taken into consideration, a plurality of medicines are collectively imaged, and the correction of the positions and postures of the medicines on the photographing table is entrusted manually.
In addition, chemicals to be handled may be hard-to-roll chemicals such as infusion bottles, and may be easy to roll. Furthermore, they are stored in ampules, vials, contrast media, etc. in containers, boxes, bottles, etc. There is also known a medicine dispensing device that is improved with pharmaceuticals such as tablets, powders, ointments, eye drops, and other auxiliary chemicals (for example, see Patent Document 4).

薬品類としてPTP包装剤を取り扱うPTP払出システムも知られており(例えば特許文献5参照)、このシステムには、PTP包装剤を個々に払い出す自動のPTP払出装置と、人手調剤用や監査用の作業台が付いた半自動の薬品類収納装置とが具備されており、作業台には、秤量計の設置された落し込み空間が形成されている。そして、PTP払出装置から払い出されたPTP包装剤が、作業台の所へ搬送され、搬送路終端の放出口から落し込み空間へ送り込まれ、空中を落下して、秤量計の秤量皿に入るようになっている。   A PTP dispensing system that handles PTP packaging agents as chemicals is also known (see, for example, Patent Document 5). This system includes an automatic PTP dispensing device that individually dispenses PTP packaging agents, and for manual dispensing and auditing. And a semi-automatic medicine storage device with a work table, and a drop space in which a weighing meter is installed is formed on the work table. Then, the PTP packaging material dispensed from the PTP dispensing device is conveyed to the work bench, sent from the discharge port at the end of the conveyance path to the drop space, falls in the air, and enters the weighing pan of the weighing meter. It is like that.

上述した監査支援装置またはそれに相当する装置のうち撮像にて薬剤情報を取得するものを見ると、撮影台上に載置された薬品類の位置や姿勢を整える作業を人手で行う監査支援装置の場合は(例えば特許文献3参照)、撮影台が固定的な物で足り、その駆動手段が不要なうえ、撮像後の薬品類を撮影台から搬出する機構も駆動も不要なため、簡素で安価で小形化にも適するが、撮像前後の処理が自動化されていない。
また、分包帯に分包されて連なっている薬品類を分包単位で順送りしながら撮像する装置の場合は(例えば特許文献2の計数監査装置を参照)、撮像前後の処理が自動化されているが、その機構は、自動調剤機から払い出されて個々に搬送されて来た薬品類を処理するようにはなっていない。
Of the above-described audit support apparatus or an equivalent apparatus, the one that obtains drug information by imaging is an audit support apparatus that manually adjusts the position and posture of chemicals placed on the imaging table. In this case (see, for example, Patent Document 3), a fixed object is sufficient for the imaging table, and there is no need for its driving means. In addition, there is no need for a mechanism for driving chemicals after imaging from the imaging table, nor for driving, so it is simple and inexpensive. Although it is suitable for downsizing, the processing before and after imaging is not automated.
In addition, in the case of an apparatus that captures images while sequentially feeding medicines that are packaged in a packing band in units of packaging (see, for example, the counting inspection apparatus in Patent Document 2), the processing before and after imaging is automated. However, the mechanism does not handle chemicals that are dispensed from the automatic dispensing machine and individually conveyed.

さらに、傾斜板上を転動する薬品類を撮像するセット装置の場合(例えば特許文献1参照)、処方に従って自動調剤機から個々に払い出されて搬送されて来た薬品類を個々に受け入れて撮像してから処方に従って集合させるとともに、その撮像に基づいて調剤監査支援用の薬品情報を取得するようになっているが、傾斜板上の転動を安定させるためには、傾斜板上への移載前に薬品類の姿勢を整えておくと共に移載位置の変動も抑制しなければならないことから、薬品類を空中へ放出して傾斜板上に落下させる態様で薬品類を傾斜板上へ移載する訳にはいかないので、櫛歯状リテーナで薬品類を掬い上げて薬品類の姿勢を整えてから薬品類を送り込む搬送機構を傾斜板に前置させるとともに、撮像後の薬品類を集合させる整列ケースを後置させているが、それらが上下に重なることなく横に並べて設けられているため、簡素化や小形化には限界がある。しかも、安定して良く転がる薬品類にしか適用できない。   Furthermore, in the case of a set device that images chemicals that roll on an inclined plate (see, for example, Patent Document 1), the chemicals that are individually dispensed and conveyed from the automatic dispenser according to the prescription are individually accepted. It collects according to the prescription after imaging, and it is designed to acquire drug information for dispensing audit support based on the imaging, but in order to stabilize the rolling on the inclined plate, Since the posture of the chemicals must be adjusted before transfer, and fluctuations in the transfer position must be suppressed, the chemicals are released onto the inclined plate in a manner that releases the chemicals into the air and drops them onto the inclined plate. Since the transfer is not possible, the chemicals are picked up by a comb-like retainer and the posture of the chemicals is adjusted, and then the conveyance mechanism that feeds the chemicals is placed in front of the inclined plate, and the chemicals after imaging are gathered Let the rear alignment case And it is, but because they are provided side by side without overlapping in the vertical direction, there is a limit to simplification and miniaturization. Moreover, it can be applied only to chemicals that roll stably and well.

また、前置の搬送機構の終端から個々に空中へ放出されて落下して来た薬品類を載置機構に受け入れて撮像等を行う調剤監査支援装置の場合(例えば特許文献2の錠剤識別装置を参照)、撮像前に載置枠の自転的運動にて位置規制を行うことで薬品類の位置や姿勢を整えるとともに、撮像後の公転的運動にて薬品類を分包のための集合位置に向けて送り出すようになったことにより、前置の搬送機構に関する簡素化に大きく寄与している。
しかしながら、この調剤監査支援装置では、運動部材についても駆動部材についてもそれぞれ複数の部材が装備されているため、調剤監査支援装置それ自体の簡素化や小形化まで十分に達成されているとは未だ言えない。
Further, in the case of a dispensing inspection support apparatus that accepts chemicals that have been individually released into the air from the end of the front conveyance mechanism and dropped into the placement mechanism and performs imaging or the like (for example, a tablet identification device of Patent Document 2) The position and posture of the chemicals are adjusted by regulating the position of the mounting frame before the imaging, and the collection position for packaging the chemicals by the revolutionary motion after the imaging. As a result, it has greatly contributed to the simplification of the front transport mechanism.
However, since this dispensing audit support device is equipped with a plurality of members for both the moving member and the drive member, it has not yet been fully achieved to simplify and miniaturize the dispensing audit support device itself. I can not say.

もっとも、上述の調剤監査支援装置では、取扱対象の薬品類が裸の錠剤であり、そのような錠剤は一般に小さいため、薬品類を受け入れて撮像に供する載置機構や,撮像前に薬品類の位置等を規制する規制機構,撮像後に薬品類を載置機構から送り出す送出機構,撮像の済んだ薬品類を施用単位や分包単位などで集合させる撮像後収集機構,それらの各機構に係る駆動手段といった機構等も、比較的小形の部材で作れるので、調剤監査支援装置それ自体の簡素化や小形化が前置の搬送機構の簡素化や小形化ほど進んでいなくても然したる不都合はなかった。   However, in the above-described dispensing audit support device, the chemicals to be handled are bare tablets, and since such tablets are generally small, there is a mounting mechanism that accepts the chemicals for imaging, and the chemicals before the imaging. Restriction mechanism that regulates position, etc., sending mechanism that sends chemicals from the mounting mechanism after imaging, post-imaging collection mechanism that collects chemicals that have been imaged in application units or parcel units, etc. Drives related to each mechanism Since the mechanism such as the means can be made of relatively small members, the dispensing audit support device itself can be simplified or miniaturized even if it is not progressing as much as the simplification or miniaturization of the front transport mechanism. There was no.

しかしながら、調剤監査支援装置で取り扱う薬品類がPTP包装剤や箱詰め薬品などになると(例えば引用文献4,5参照)、これらの薬品類は裸の錠剤に比べて大きいため、それに応じて、上記の各機構や駆動手段が大形化し、調剤監査支援装置のコストアップを招くとともに調剤監査支援装置の占有空間や設置面積が増すので、不都合が顕在化する。
そこで、自動調剤機から個々に払い出されて搬送されて来た薬品類を個々に受け入れて撮像してから集合させる調剤監査支援装置について機構部や駆動部の簡素化や小形化を推し進めることが技術的な課題となる。
However, when the chemicals handled by the dispensing audit support device are PTP packaging agents or boxed chemicals (see, for example, cited documents 4 and 5), these chemicals are larger than bare tablets. Each mechanism and drive means are increased in size, resulting in an increase in the cost of the dispensing audit support apparatus and an increase in the occupied space and installation area of the dispensing audit support apparatus.
Therefore, it is possible to promote simplification and miniaturization of the mechanism part and drive part of the dispensing audit support device that collects the medicines that have been individually delivered and transported from the automatic dispensing machine and collects them after imaging. It becomes a technical challenge.

本発明の調剤監査支援装置は(解決手段1)、このような課題を解決するために創案されたものであり、薬品類を受け入れるための載置機構と、前記載置機構の薬品類載置箇所を撮る個別撮影用撮像装置(第1撮像装置)と、前記個別撮影用撮像装置で撮った画像データに基づいて調剤監査支援用の薬品情報を取得する情報処理装置と、前記載置機構から送り出された薬品類を受け入れて集合させうる撮像後収集機構とを備えていて、自動調剤機から個々に払い出されて搬送されて来た薬品類を前記載置機構にて個々に受け入れ前記個別撮影用撮像装置にて撮像してから前記撮像後収集機構に収容させるとともに前記個別撮影用撮像装置にて撮像した薬品類に係る薬品情報を前記情報処理装置にて得て調剤監査支援に供する調剤監査支援装置において、
前記載置機構が、受け入れた薬品類を上面に載置する回転円板と、前記回転円板の円中心を回転中心として前記回転円板を面内回転させる円板回転駆動機構と、前記回転円板の上縁部を臨む所に設けられ前記回転円板の上面の周りのうち前記撮像後収集機構寄りの部分を薬品類送出口として解放しつつ前記回転円板の上面の周りを囲う固定周壁部材とを具備していて、前記円板回転駆動機構にて前記回転円板を回転させることにより、前記個別撮影用撮像装置での撮像前に薬品類の位置を前記固定周壁部材寄りに規制する規制機能と、前記個別撮影用撮像装置での撮像後に薬品類を前記薬品類送出口から前記撮像後収集機構へ送り出す送出機能とを発揮するようになっていることを特徴とする。
The dispensing audit support device of the present invention (Solution means 1) was created to solve such a problem, and a placement mechanism for receiving medicines, and a medicine placement of the placement mechanism described above. An imaging apparatus for individual photographing (first imaging apparatus) that captures a location, an information processing apparatus that acquires chemical information for dispensing audit support based on image data captured by the imaging apparatus for individual photographing, and the above-described placement mechanism And a post-imaging collection mechanism that accepts and collects the delivered chemicals, and individually accepts the chemicals that have been individually dispensed and transported from the automatic dispensing machine by the placement mechanism. Dispensing that is stored in the post-imaging collection mechanism after being imaged by the imaging device for photographing, and that is used in the information processing device to obtain medicine information related to medicines imaged by the imaging device for individual photographing and is used for dispensing audit support Audit support device Oite,
The mounting mechanism includes a rotating disk for placing received chemicals on the upper surface, a disk rotation driving mechanism for rotating the rotating disk in-plane around the center of the circle of the rotating disk, and the rotation A fixed portion that surrounds the upper surface of the rotating disk while releasing the portion near the post-imaging collection mechanism as a medicine delivery outlet in the periphery of the upper surface of the rotating disk provided at the upper edge of the disk A peripheral wall member, and by rotating the rotating disk by the disk rotation driving mechanism, the position of chemicals is regulated closer to the fixed peripheral wall member before imaging by the imaging device for individual photographing. And a delivery function for delivering chemicals from the chemical delivery port to the post-imaging collection mechanism after imaging by the imaging device for individual photographing.

また、本発明の調剤監査支援装置は(解決手段2)、上記解決手段1の調剤監査支援装置であって、前記回転円板のうち前記薬品類送出口の所に来た部位が前記回転円板のうち前記個別撮影用撮像装置の撮像先の所に来た部位より高くなる傾斜状態で前記回転円板が傾斜していることを特徴とする。   Further, the dispensing inspection support apparatus of the present invention (Solution means 2) is the dispensing audit support apparatus of the above solution means 1, wherein the part of the rotating disc that has come to the medicine delivery outlet is the rotating circle. The rotating disk is tilted in an inclined state that is higher than a portion of the plate that comes to the imaging destination of the imaging device for individual photographing.

さらに、本発明の調剤監査支援装置は(解決手段3)、上記解決手段1,2の調剤監査支援装置であって、前記回転円板のうち前記薬品類送出口の所に来た部位が前記撮像後収集機構の上方に位置する部分上下配置状態で前記回転円板と前記撮像後収集機構とが配設されていることを特徴とする。   Furthermore, the dispensing audit support device of the present invention is (Solution means 3), the dispensing audit support device of the above solution means 1 and 2, wherein the part of the rotating disc that has come to the medicine delivery outlet is The rotating disk and the post-imaging collection mechanism are arranged in a partially vertically disposed state located above the post-imaging collection mechanism.

また、本発明の調剤監査支援装置は(解決手段4)、上記解決手段1〜3の調剤監査支援装置であって、人手で監査作業を行うための作業面として上面を露出させた監査台と、前記作業面の上方と後方とを前後に仕切る仕切とが設けられ、前記載置機構が前記仕切の後方に配置されており、前記撮像後収集機構が、円中心を通る区画部材にて内部を等角に区分けされて複数の薬品類収集区画室を有する円形盆状体と、前記円形盆状体の円中心を回転中心として前記円形盆状体を面内回転させる盆状体回転駆動機構とを具備したものであり、前記円形盆状体が、前記仕切の下方に配置され又は前記仕切を前後に貫く開口の所に配置されていて、前記盆状体回転駆動機構にて回転させたとき前記薬品類収集区画室が交代で前記仕切から進退するようになっており、前記薬品類収集区画室のうち何れか一室が前記仕切の前に出て来る度に前記仕切の後方で他の一室が前記載置機構の前記薬品類送出口に寄って行って前記薬品類送出口から送り出された薬品類を受け入れる所に位置するようになっていることを特徴とする。   The dispensing audit support device of the present invention is (Solution means 4), which is the dispensing audit support device of the above solution means 1 to 3, and an audit table having an exposed upper surface as a work surface for performing an audit work manually. A partition that divides the upper and rear sides of the work surface in the front-rear direction is provided, and the placement mechanism is disposed behind the partition, and the post-imaging collection mechanism is formed by a partition member that passes through the center of the circle. A circular basin body having a plurality of medicine collection compartments divided into equal angles, and a basin body rotation drive mechanism for rotating the circular basin body in-plane around the circular center of the circular basin body The circular basin body is disposed below the partition or at an opening penetrating the partition back and forth, and rotated by the basin body rotation drive mechanism. Sometimes the medicine collection compartment will move back and forth from the partition Each time one of the medicine collection compartments comes out in front of the partition, the other room behind the partition approaches the medicine delivery outlet of the placement mechanism. It is located in the place which receives the chemicals sent out from the said chemicals delivery outlet.

また、本発明の調剤監査支援装置は(解決手段5)、上記解決手段4の調剤監査支援装置であって、前記薬品類収集区画室のうち前記仕切の前に来ている払出中区画室の室内を撮る集合撮影用撮像装置(第2撮像装置)が設けられ、前記集合撮影用撮像装置で撮った画像データに基づいて前記払出中区画室が空か否かを判別するとともに、前記払出中区画室が空でないと判別したときには前記盆状体回転駆動機構による前記円形盆状体の回転駆動を抑制するようになっていることを特徴とする。   The dispensing audit support device of the present invention is (Solution means 5), which is the dispensing audit support device of the above solution means 4, in the dispensing compartment that comes before the partition in the medicine collection compartment. A group photographing imaging device (second imaging device) for photographing a room is provided, and whether or not the paying out compartment is empty is determined based on image data taken by the group photographing imaging device and the paying out When it is determined that the compartment is not empty, the rotation driving of the circular basin by the basin body rotation driving mechanism is suppressed.

このような本発明の調剤監査支援装置にあっては(解決手段1)、薬品類を受け入れて撮像に供する載置機構を回転円板と固定周壁部材とで具体化したことにより、回転円板を回転させると、その摩擦力と遠心力とによって、回転円板上の薬品類が、先ず固定周壁部材に寄せられて縁部に位置するよう規制されてから固定周壁部材の内壁面に沿って撮影位置や薬品類払出口へ移動させられるので、撮像前に薬品類の位置を撮像に好適なところへ規制する規制機能に加えて、撮像後に薬品類を薬品類払出口から送り出す送出機能までもが、載置機構によって発揮される。   In such a dispensing inspection support apparatus of the present invention (Solution 1), the mounting mechanism for receiving the chemicals and providing the imaging is realized by the rotating disk and the fixed peripheral wall member. Is rotated by the frictional force and centrifugal force, the chemicals on the rotating disk are first moved to the fixed peripheral wall member and regulated to be positioned at the edge, and then along the inner wall surface of the fixed peripheral wall member. Since it can be moved to the shooting position and the chemicals dispensing outlet, in addition to the regulation function that regulates the position of chemicals to a place suitable for imaging before imaging, there is also a sending function that sends chemicals from the chemicals dispensing outlet after imaging Is exerted by the mounting mechanism.

そのため、それらの機能を担う規制機構や送出機構を明示的に設ける必要が無くなるうえ、各機構に係る駆動手段も円板回転駆動機構に集約されて複数設ける必要が無くなるので、その分だけ簡素化・小形化が進むこととなる。
したがって、この発明によれば、自動調剤機から個々に払い出されて搬送されて来た薬品類を個々に受け入れて撮像してから集合させる調剤監査支援装置であっても機構部や駆動部を簡素化・小形化することができる。
Therefore, it is not necessary to explicitly provide a regulation mechanism and a delivery mechanism that bear those functions, and it is not necessary to provide a plurality of drive means related to each mechanism by concentrating on the disk rotation drive mechanism.・ Miniaturization will progress.
Therefore, according to this invention, even in a dispensing inspection support device that collects chemicals that have been individually dispensed and transported from an automatic dispensing machine, collects them, and then collects them, the mechanism unit and the driving unit are arranged. It can be simplified and miniaturized.

また、本発明の調剤監査支援装置にあっては(解決手段2)、回転円板を特定方向に傾斜させたことにより、その傾斜に応じた重力の分力が、撮像前に薬品類の位置を規制するときには回転円板の遠心力に加勢し、撮像後に薬品類を送り出すときには回転円板の遠心力を減殺させるため、回転円板の回転速度を変化させるまでもなく傾斜設定にて簡便に、迅速な位置規制と穏当な送出とを両立させることができる。しかも、そのように傾斜させても、上述した簡素化・小形化の利点は、何ら損なわれることなく維持される。   In the dispensing inspection support device of the present invention (solution 2), the rotating disk is tilted in a specific direction, so that the gravitational force corresponding to the tilt is the position of the chemicals before imaging. Is controlled by the centrifugal force of the rotating disk, and when the chemicals are sent out after imaging, the centrifugal force of the rotating disk is reduced, so it is easy to set the tilt without changing the rotating speed of the rotating disk. It is possible to achieve both quick position regulation and moderate transmission. And even if it makes such an inclination, the advantage of simplification and size reduction mentioned above is maintained without impairing at all.

さらに、本発明の調剤監査支援装置にあっては(解決手段3)、載置機構と撮像後収集機構との配設に際して両機構の一部が上下になって平面視で重なるようにしたことにより、調剤監査支援装置の設置面積を小さく抑えることができる。   Furthermore, in the dispensing inspection support apparatus of the present invention (Solution means 3), when the placement mechanism and the post-imaging collection mechanism are arranged, a part of both mechanisms are vertically moved so as to overlap in plan view. Thus, the installation area of the dispensing inspection support device can be kept small.

また、本発明の調剤監査支援装置にあっては(解決手段4)、撮像後収集機構の円形盆状体を回転させると、集合済み薬品類を収容している薬品類収集区画室が仕切前の監査台の上に出て来るとともに、載置機構から薬品類が送り出されて来るところに別の薬品類収集区画室が行くようにしたことにより、人手による監査台上での監査作業とその次の監査に供する薬品類に係る個別情報の自動取得と自動取揃とを並行処理で行うことができることとなる。しかも、処理の切替が円形盆状体の回転で行えるので、撮像後収集機構とその駆動手段まで簡素化・小形化することができる。   Further, in the dispensing inspection support device of the present invention (solution 4), when the circular tray of the post-imaging collection mechanism is rotated, the chemical collection compartment containing the collected chemicals is not partitioned. As a result of the fact that another chemical collection compartment goes to where the chemicals are sent out from the mounting mechanism, it is possible to manually perform the audit work on the audit table and its Automatic acquisition and automatic procurement of individual information related to chemicals to be used for the next audit can be performed in parallel processing. In addition, since the processing can be switched by rotating the circular tray, the post-imaging collection mechanism and its driving means can be simplified and miniaturized.

また、本発明の調剤監査支援装置にあっては(解決手段5)、払出中区画室の室内が空であることの確認がとれないと払出中区画室を仕切から後退させないようにしたことにより、監査に供された薬品類の取り忘れを的確に防止することができる。しかも、それに用いる集合撮影用撮像装置(第2撮像装置)は払出中区画室の上方に設ければ良いので、集合撮影用撮像装置を追加設置しても、設置面積が不所望に増加することは無い。   Further, in the dispensing inspection support apparatus of the present invention (Solution 5), if it is not possible to confirm that the room in the paying compartment is empty, the paying compartment is not retracted from the partition. It is possible to accurately prevent forgetting to take chemicals used for auditing. In addition, since the group photographing imaging device (second imaging device) used therefor may be provided above the paying-out compartment, even if a group photographing imaging device is additionally installed, the installation area undesirably increases. There is no.

About the dispensing inspection assistance apparatus of such this invention, the specific form for implementing this is demonstrated by the following Examples 1-3.
The embodiment 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 embodies all of the above-described solving means 1 to 5 (claims 1 to 5 at the beginning of the application). The embodiment 2 shown in FIGS. Example 3 shown in FIG. 7 is a modification thereof.

本発明の調剤監査支援装置の実施例1について、その具体的な構成を、図面を引用して説明する。
図1は、(a)が一台の自動調剤機10と一台の調剤監査支援装置20とを連結設置した調剤システムの正面図、(b)がその右側面図、(c)が調剤監査支援装置20の要部機構30+40の斜視図、(d)がその平面図である。また、図2は、調剤監査支援装置20の要部機構30+40の縦断右側面図である。
A specific configuration of the dispensing inspection support apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
1A is a front view of a dispensing system in which one automatic dispensing machine 10 and one dispensing audit support device 20 are connected and installed, FIG. 1B is a right side view thereof, and FIG. 1C is a dispensing audit. The perspective view of the principal part mechanism 30 + 40 of the assistance apparatus 20, (d) is the top view. FIG. 2 is a vertical right side view of the main part mechanism 30 + 40 of the dispensing inspection support apparatus 20.

実施例1の調剤システムは、左側に自動調剤機10を配置し、右側に調剤監査支援装置20を配置して、両装置を隣り合わせ状態で連結したものである。自動調剤機10は、薬品類8としてのPTP包装剤を一枚ずつ払い出すPTP払出装置であり、公知の従来装置と同様のものなので詳細な説明は割愛するが(例えば特許文献5参照)、各種の薬品類8を多数のPTPカセットに収容していて処方箋データや調剤指示に応じて必要な薬品類8をタイミング調整しながら一つずつ排出させるようになっている。自動調剤機10には、例えば横置きベルトコンベア等からなる搬送機構11も組み込まれており、この搬送機構11は、搬送路がPTPカセット庫部の下方に位置するとともに、その終端が調剤監査支援装置20の回転円板31の上方に位置していて、PTPカセットから排出された薬品類8を一つずつ搬送機構11にて調剤監査支援装置20へ送り込んで回転円板31の上方で空中へ放出することで調剤監査支援装置20に引き渡すようになっている。   In the dispensing system of Example 1, the automatic dispensing machine 10 is arranged on the left side, the dispensing inspection support device 20 is arranged on the right side, and both devices are connected side by side. The automatic dispensing machine 10 is a PTP dispensing device that dispenses the PTP packaging agent as the chemicals 8 one by one, and since it is the same as a known conventional device, a detailed description is omitted (for example, see Patent Document 5). Various chemicals 8 are accommodated in a large number of PTP cassettes, and the necessary chemicals 8 are discharged one by one while adjusting the timing according to prescription data and dispensing instructions. The automatic dispensing machine 10 also incorporates a transport mechanism 11 made of, for example, a horizontal belt conveyor, and the transport mechanism 11 has a transport path positioned below the PTP cassette storage and its end is supported by dispensing auditing. Located above the rotating disk 31 of the apparatus 20, the chemicals 8 discharged from the PTP cassette are sent one by one to the dispensing inspection support apparatus 20 by the transport mechanism 11, and into the air above the rotating disk 31. By discharging, it is handed over to the dispensing inspection support device 20.

調剤監査支援装置20は、筐体の正面に外装された調剤監査支援用表示装置21と集合撮影用撮像装置22と仕切23と監査台25を具備するとともに、個別撮影用撮像装置27と情報処理装置28と載置機構30と撮像後収集機構40を筐体に内蔵させて具備している。そのうち、撮像後収集機構40は、大部分が筐体内に隠れているが、後述するように、その一部(具体的には円形盆状体41の薬品類収集区画室42の一室分)は、監査台25の上面である作業面26のところに露出している。また、調剤監査支援用表示装置21は、薬品類8の画像や薬品情報といった調剤監査の支援に役立つ情報を提示する手段の典型例として示した画面表示装置である(例えば特許文献1〜3参照)。   The dispensing audit support device 20 includes a dispensing audit support display device 21, a group photographing imaging device 22, a partition 23, and an auditing table 25 that are externally mounted on the front of the casing, and an individual photographing imaging device 27 and an information processing. The apparatus 28, the mounting mechanism 30, and the post-imaging collection mechanism 40 are provided in a housing. Among them, most of the post-imaging collection mechanism 40 is hidden in the casing, but as will be described later, a part thereof (specifically, one medicine collection compartment 42 of the circular tray 41) Is exposed at a work surface 26 which is the upper surface of the auditing table 25. Further, the dispensing audit support display device 21 is a screen display device shown as a typical example of means for presenting information useful for dispensing audit support such as images of medicines 8 and medicine information (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3). ).

個別撮影用撮像装置27(第1撮像装置)も,集合撮影用撮像装置22(第2撮像装置)も、薬品情報の読取に適う解像度を持った市販のCCDカメラ等からなり(例えば特許文献2参照)、撮像方向を薬品類8の通過箇所や滞留箇所に向けた状態で、図示しない照明等と一緒に固定設置されて、薬品類8の撮像に適うものとなっている。
仕切23は、筐体の前面のうち監査台25の上方の部分に張り付けられた前面パネル部分であるが、調剤監査支援装置20の要部機構30+40である載置機構30及び撮像後収集機構40を点検時等に容易に覗けるよう開閉式の又は着脱式の個別部材であっても良く、要するに作業面26の上方と後方とを前後に仕切るものであれば足り、専用部材でも兼用部材でも固定部材でも可動部材でも良い。この例の仕切23は、その下端部の中央部分が切り欠かれて、仕切23を前後に貫く区画室進退用開口24が形成されている。
The individual photographing imaging device 27 (first imaging device) and the collective photographing imaging device 22 (second imaging device) are each composed of a commercially available CCD camera or the like having a resolution suitable for reading medicine information (for example, Patent Document 2). Reference) is fixedly installed together with illumination or the like (not shown) in a state in which the imaging direction is directed to a passing place or a staying place of the chemicals 8, and is suitable for imaging the chemicals 8.
The partition 23 is a front panel portion that is attached to a portion of the front surface of the housing above the audit table 25. The placement mechanism 30 and the post-imaging collection mechanism 40, which are the main mechanisms 30 + 40 of the dispensing audit support device 20, are provided. It can be an open / close or detachable individual member so that it can be easily viewed at the time of inspection, etc. In short, it suffices if it separates the upper and rear sides of the work surface 26 from front to back, and it is fixed to either a dedicated member or a dual-purpose member It may be a member or a movable member. The partition 23 in this example has a central portion at the lower end thereof cut out to form a compartment advancement / retreat opening 24 that penetrates the partition 23 forward and backward.

監査台25は、この例では、調剤監査支援装置20の筐体の前面から前方に突出して設けられているが、人手で監査作業を行うための作業面26として上面を露出させていれば、前方突出の必要はなく、例えば、作業面26の後端部に位置する仕切23を奥まった所に立たせる等のことで、監査台25の前方突出を抑えたり無くすのも可能である。
情報処理装置28は、例えばプログラマブルなマイクロプロセッサやデジタルシグナルプロセッサ等を具備していて画像データを入力して処理するものであり、その画像処理手法は公知手法で足りるので詳細な説明は割愛するが(例えば特許文献1〜3参照)、個別撮影用撮像装置27で撮った画像データに基づいて薬品名や形状といった調剤監査支援用の薬品情報を取得することができるようになっている。調剤監査支援用表示装置21に薬品情報や薬品情報と処方等との照合結果などを表示させる手法も公知のもので良い。
In this example, the inspection table 25 is provided so as to protrude forward from the front surface of the housing of the dispensing inspection support device 20, but if the upper surface is exposed as a work surface 26 for manually performing the inspection work, There is no need for forward protrusion. For example, the forward protrusion of the inspection table 25 can be suppressed or eliminated by, for example, standing the partition 23 located at the rear end of the work surface 26 in a deep place.
The information processing device 28 includes, for example, a programmable microprocessor, a digital signal processor, and the like, and inputs and processes image data. Since the image processing method is a known method, a detailed description is omitted. (For example, refer to Patent Documents 1 to 3) Based on the image data taken by the individual photographing imaging device 27, medicine information for supporting dispensing inspection such as a medicine name and shape can be acquired. A known method may be used for displaying the medicine information or the result of collation between the medicine information and the prescription on the dispensing audit support display device 21.

載置機構30は、仕切23の後方に配置されて筐体に内蔵されているが、薬品類8の引き渡しを受けるために、調剤監査支援装置20の筐体の左側面のうち調剤監査支援装置20と連通していて搬送機構11の終端部を臨める所に、設けられている。また、搬送機構11によって搬送路終端から個々に空中へ放出されて落下して来た薬品類8を受け入れるために、組み合わさって丸皿状になっている回転円板31と固定周壁部材32とを具備している。そのうち固定周壁部材32は固定されているが、回転円板31は回転可能に支持されていて回転運動するものなので、その回転駆動のために、載置機構30は、電動モータ等の駆動源34とタイミングベルト等の伝動部材35と回転支軸等の駆動軸36とからなる円板回転駆動機構34〜36も具備している。   The placement mechanism 30 is disposed behind the partition 23 and built in the housing. However, in order to receive delivery of the chemicals 8, the dispensing audit support device of the left side surface of the dispensing audit support device 20 is used. 20 is provided at a position where it communicates with 20 and faces the end of the transport mechanism 11. Further, in order to receive the chemicals 8 that are individually discharged from the conveyance path end by the conveyance mechanism 11 and dropped, a rotating disk 31 and a fixed peripheral wall member 32 that are combined into a circular dish shape, It has. Of these, the fixed peripheral wall member 32 is fixed, but the rotating disk 31 is rotatably supported and rotates, so that the mounting mechanism 30 is driven by a driving source 34 such as an electric motor. And disk rotation drive mechanisms 34 to 36 each including a transmission member 35 such as a timing belt and a drive shaft 36 such as a rotation support shaft.

回転円板31は、丸皿状組合体の底部に相当する平板であり、搬送機構11から受け入れた薬品類を上面に載置するために、搬送機構11の搬送路終端の下方に配置されている。この回転円板31の下面における円中心のところへ下から駆動軸36の上端が垂直に当接した状態で連結されているので、円板回転駆動機構34〜36は回転円板31の円中心を回転中心として回転円板31を面内回転させるものとなっている。回転円板31の上面は、受け入れて載置した薬品類8を回転円板31の回転運動にて遠心方向へ滑らせるように移動させるとともに周方向へ引きずるように移動させるために、適度な摩擦係数を示す平坦面に仕上げられている。   The rotating disk 31 is a flat plate corresponding to the bottom of the round dish-like assembly, and is disposed below the end of the transport path of the transport mechanism 11 in order to place chemicals received from the transport mechanism 11 on the upper surface. Yes. Since the upper end of the drive shaft 36 is connected vertically from below to the center of the circle on the lower surface of the rotary disk 31, the disk rotary drive mechanisms 34 to 36 are connected to the circle center of the rotary disk 31. The rotation disk 31 is rotated in-plane around the rotation center. The upper surface of the rotating disk 31 has a suitable friction to move the medicine 8 received and placed so as to be slid in the centrifugal direction and dragged in the circumferential direction by the rotational movement of the rotating disk 31. It is finished to a flat surface showing the coefficient.

固定周壁部材32は、丸皿状組合体の縁部に相当する環状体・短筒状体であるが、完全な環体・筒体でなく、円形盆状体41寄りの前側部分が、そこから回転円板31の上の薬品類8を送り出すのに十分なだけ、欠けているので、回転円板31の上縁部を臨む所に固設され回転円板31の上面の周りのうち円形盆状体41寄りの部分を薬品類送出口33として解放しつつ回転円板31の上面の周りを囲うものとなっている。また、この例では、搬送機構11の終端部の下になる部分も上端部が少し切り欠かれて低くなっている。固定周壁部材32の内周面は、回転円板31の回転運動に引きずられるようにして薬品類8が移動するときにその移動範囲を規制しつつ移動を許容するガイド・案内部材の役目を果たすために、摩擦係数の小さな円滑面に仕上げられている。   The fixed peripheral wall member 32 is an annular body / short cylindrical body corresponding to the edge of the round dish-like assembly, but is not a complete annular body / cylindrical body, and the front portion near the circular basin 41 is there. Since it is lacking enough to feed out the chemicals 8 on the rotating disk 31, it is fixed in a place facing the upper edge of the rotating disk 31 and is circular around the upper surface of the rotating disk 31. The portion close to the basin 41 is released as the chemical delivery port 33 and surrounds the upper surface of the rotating disk 31. Further, in this example, the lower portion of the end portion of the transport mechanism 11 is also slightly cut off at the upper end. The inner peripheral surface of the fixed peripheral wall member 32 serves as a guide / guide member that allows movement while restricting the movement range when the chemicals 8 are moved so as to be dragged by the rotational movement of the rotary disk 31. Therefore, it is finished to a smooth surface with a small friction coefficient.

回転円板31及び固定周壁部材32は、前側が高く後側・奥側が低くなる状態で傾斜しており、その傾斜角θは、薬品類8に働く重力から傾斜に起因して生じる分力が回転円板31の回転による遠心力を強化しつつも周方向移動の源の摩擦力を喪失させないように選定されており、この例では約10゜に設定されている。このような回転円板31の上面のうち相対的低位の後側部分・奥側部分は、載置された薬品類8が回転円板31の回転によって速やかに固定周壁部材32の内周面に寄せられて薬品類8の位置や姿勢が安定する所なので、薬品類載置箇所のうちでも個別撮像好適領域27aとなっており(図1(d)の散点模様のところを参照)、個別撮影用撮像装置27は、個別撮像好適領域27aを含む範囲を撮るようになっている。そのため、回転円板31は、回転円板31のうち薬品類送出口33の所に来た部位が回転円板31のうち個別撮影用撮像装置27の撮像先の所に来た部位より高くなる傾斜状態で、傾斜したものとなっている。   The rotating disk 31 and the fixed peripheral wall member 32 are inclined in a state where the front side is high and the rear side and the back side are low, and the inclination angle θ is a component force generated due to the inclination from the gravity acting on the chemicals 8. While the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the rotating disk 31 is strengthened, it is selected so as not to lose the frictional force of the circumferential movement source. In this example, it is set to about 10 °. Of the upper surface of the rotating disc 31, the relatively low rear portion and the rear portion are placed on the inner peripheral surface of the fixed peripheral wall member 32 by the rotation of the rotating disc 31. Since the position and posture of the chemicals 8 are stabilized, it is an individual imaging suitable region 27a among the chemical placement places (see the dotted pattern in FIG. 1 (d)). The imaging imaging device 27 captures a range including the individual imaging suitable area 27a. Therefore, in the rotating disk 31, the part of the rotating disk 31 that has come to the chemical delivery port 33 is higher than the part of the rotating disk 31 that has come to the imaging destination of the individual imaging device 27. In the inclined state, it is inclined.

また、搬送機構11の搬送路も、搬送中に薬品類8の姿勢と放出位置を安定させるために、奥側ガイド12と共に前側が高く奥側が低くなる状態で傾斜しており、その傾斜角は、この例では、放出した薬品類8が回転円板31に穏やかに載るよう、回転円板31の傾斜角θと同じになっているが、傾斜角θより小さくても良く大きくても良い。
さらに、回転円板31及び固定周壁部材32のうち薬品類送出口33の近傍部分は、回転円板31及び固定周壁部材32において相対的高位の前側部分となっているが、薬品類送出口33から送り出した薬品類8を円形盆状体41に送り込むために、撮像後収集機構40の円形盆状体41の後側部分・奥側部分の上方に位置している。このように、その部分では回転円板31と円形盆状体41とが上下に配置されているため、回転円板31と円形盆状体41とを平面視すると、概ね「8」の字状や雪だるま状に見えることとなる。
In addition, the transport path of the transport mechanism 11 is also tilted with the back guide 12 and the front side being high and the back side being low in order to stabilize the posture and discharge position of the chemicals 8 during transport, and the tilt angle is In this example, the tilted angle θ of the rotating disc 31 is the same as that of the rotating disc 31 so that the released chemicals 8 are gently placed on the rotating disc 31, but may be smaller or larger than the tilt angle θ.
Further, a portion of the rotating disc 31 and the fixed peripheral wall member 32 in the vicinity of the chemical delivery outlet 33 is a relatively high front portion in the rotary disc 31 and the fixed peripheral wall member 32. In order to send the chemicals 8 sent out from the circular basin body 41 to the circular basin body 41, the chemicals 8 are positioned above the rear side portion and the back side portion of the circular basin body 41 of the post-imaging collection mechanism 40. Thus, since the rotating disk 31 and the circular basin body 41 are arranged up and down in that portion, when the rotating disk 31 and the circular basin body 41 are viewed in plan view, a generally “8” character shape is obtained. And it looks like a snowman.

撮像後収集機構40は、載置機構30から送り出された薬品類8を受け入れて一つ又は複数の薬品類8を集合させるとともに、その集合と並行して先行の集合済み薬品類8を監査台25の作業面26の所へ払い出すために、複数の薬品類収集区画室42を有する円形盆状体41と、円形盆状体41を回転運動させて複数の薬品類収集区画室42を循環移動させる盆状体回転駆動機構44〜46とを具備している。円形盆状体41は、真ん丸な盆状体の内部を区画部材43で仕切ったものであり、水平に設置され、更に円形部の中心を回転中心として水平面内回転可能に支持されている。盆状体回転駆動機構44〜46は、例えば電動モータ等の駆動源44とタイミングベルト等の伝動部材45と回転支軸等の駆動軸46とからなり、円形盆状体41の回転駆動を行うようになっている。   The post-imaging collection mechanism 40 accepts the chemicals 8 sent out from the mounting mechanism 30 and collects one or a plurality of chemicals 8, and in parallel with the assembly, collects the preceding collected chemicals 8 in an auditing table. The circular tray 41 having a plurality of medicine collection compartments 42 and the circular medicine tray 41 are rotated to circulate the plurality of medicine collection compartments 42 in order to pay out to the 25 work surfaces 26. The basin body rotational drive mechanisms 44 to 46 to be moved are provided. The circular basin body 41 is obtained by partitioning the inside of a round basin body with a partition member 43, is installed horizontally, and is supported so as to be rotatable in a horizontal plane with the center of the circular portion as the center of rotation. The basin body rotation drive mechanisms 44 to 46 include, for example, a drive source 44 such as an electric motor, a transmission member 45 such as a timing belt, and a drive shaft 46 such as a rotation support shaft, and rotationally drive the circular basin body 41. It is like that.

この円形盆状体41は、円中心を通る直径状の区画部材43によって内部が180゜ずつに区分けされて、内部に二つの薬品類収集区画室42を有する。薬品類収集区画室42は、何れも、半円状の盆状体であって、載置機構30から送り出された薬品類8を受け入れて集合させうる容量・容積のものである。なお、二つの薬品類収集区画室42を符号で区別するときには42a,42bの符号を用いる。また、この例の円形盆状体41では、区画部材43のうち中央部分が、上方へ突き出て、少し高くなっている。そして、この区画部材43の突き上げ部分は、仕切23の区画室進退用開口24の所に配置されているが、区画部材43の残部と円形盆状体41は、仕切23の直ぐ下方に配置されている。   The circular tray 41 is divided into 180 ° portions by a diameter-shaped partition member 43 passing through the center of the circle, and has two medicine collection compartments 42 inside. Each of the medicine collection compartments 42 is a semicircular bonnet, and has a capacity and volume that can receive and collect the medicines 8 sent out from the mounting mechanism 30. In addition, when distinguishing two chemical | medical agent collection compartments 42 with a code | symbol, the code | symbol 42a, 42b is used. Moreover, in the circular tray 41 of this example, the center part of the partition member 43 protrudes upwards and is a little high. The pushing-up portion of the partition member 43 is disposed at the partition chamber advancing / retreating opening 24 of the partition 23, but the remaining portion of the partition member 43 and the circular tray 41 are disposed immediately below the partition 23. ing.

そのため、撮像後収集機構40は、盆状体回転駆動機構44〜46にて円形盆状体41を回転させて薬品類収集区画室42を循環移動させると、二つの薬品類収集区画室42が交代で仕切23から進退するようになっている。しかも、その際、薬品類収集区画室42のうち何れか一室たとえば薬品類収集区画室42aが仕切23の前に出て来る度に仕切23の後方で他の一室たとえば薬品類収集区画室42bが載置機構30の薬品類送出口33に寄って行って薬品類送出口33から送り出された薬品類8を受け入れる所に位置するようになっている。上述したように、回転円板31のうち薬品類送出口33の所に来た部位が撮像後収集機構40の円形盆状体41の後側部分・奥側部分の上方に位置する部分上下配置状態で、回転円板31と撮像後収集機構40とが配設されているからである。   Therefore, when the post-imaging collection mechanism 40 rotates the circular basin body 41 by the basin body rotation drive mechanisms 44 to 46 and circulates and moves the medicine collection compartment room 42, the two medicine collection compartment rooms 42 are formed. It is designed to move forward and backward from the partition 23 in turn. In addition, at that time, any one of the medicine collection compartments 42, for example, the medicine collection compartment 42a comes out in front of the partition 23, and another room, for example, a medicine collection compartment, behind the partition 23. 42 b is located near the medicine delivery outlet 33 of the mounting mechanism 30 and receives the medicine 8 delivered from the medicine delivery outlet 33. As described above, the part of the rotating disk 31 that is located at the medicine delivery port 33 is located above and below the rear and back portions of the circular tray 41 of the post-imaging collection mechanism 40. This is because the rotating disk 31 and the post-imaging collection mechanism 40 are disposed in the state.

二つの薬品類収集区画室42のうち仕切23の前に来ている区画室は、収容した薬品類8を調剤監査に供するために払い出しているものなので、本願では払出中区画室と呼ぶ。払出中区画室は、仕切23の前に来ている薬品類収集区画室42なので、薬品類収集区画室42aが前に出てきて払出中区画室になったときには、薬品類収集区画室42bが後ろに引っ込んで薬品類8を集合させるものとなり、薬品類収集区画室42bが前に出てきて払出中区画室になったときには、薬品類収集区画室42aが仕切23の後ろに引っ込んで薬品類8を集合させるものとなる。そして、そのような払出中区画室の上方に設置された集合撮影用撮像装置22が撮像方向を下向きにして仕切23に支持されているので、集合撮影用撮像装置22は払出中区画室の室内を撮るものとなっている。   Of the two medicine collection compartments 42, the compartment coming in front of the partition 23 is dispensed in order to use the contained chemicals 8 for dispensing inspection, and is referred to as a dispensing compartment in this application. Since the dispensing compartment is the medicine collection compartment 42 that comes in front of the partition 23, when the medicine collection compartment 42a comes out before and becomes the dispensing compartment, the medicine collection compartment 42b When the chemicals collection compartment 42b comes out forward and becomes a paying out compartment, the chemicals collection compartment 42a is retracted behind the partition 23 to collect the chemicals 8 by being pulled back. 8 will be assembled. Since the group photographing imaging device 22 installed above such a paying-out compartment is supported by the partition 23 with the imaging direction facing downward, the group photographing imaging device 22 is placed in the inside of the dispensing compartment. It has become something to shoot.

制御装置は、ハードウェアを情報処理装置28に兼用させても調剤監査支援装置20とは別体のマイクロプロセッサ等で具現化しても良いので、図示を割愛したが、制御を担うプログラムの実行によって、載置機構30と撮像後収集機構40の動作を制御するものであるが、その動作制御に際し、自動調剤機10の制御装置と交信することで、搬送機構11にて載置機構30に送り込まれる薬品類8を一つずつにさせるとともに、載置機構30に滞留する薬品類8の個数を一つ以下に抑えるようになっている。個別撮影用撮像装置27の撮像に基づいて情報処理装置28の取得した薬品情報と処方箋データとを照合する等のことにより、撮像後収集機構40の薬品類収集区画室42に集合させる薬品類8に係る区分けを処方単位や服用単位など適宜な基準で決定するようにもなっている。   The control device may be implemented by a microprocessor or the like separate from the dispensing audit support device 20 even if the hardware is also used as the information processing device 28. The operation of the placement mechanism 30 and the post-imaging collection mechanism 40 is controlled. When the operation is controlled, the conveyance mechanism 11 sends the placement mechanism 30 to the placement mechanism 30 by communicating with the control device of the automatic dispensing machine 10. The number of chemicals 8 to be stored in the mounting mechanism 30 is suppressed to one or less. The medicines 8 to be assembled in the medicine collection compartment 42 of the post-imaging collection mechanism 40 by collating the medicine information acquired by the information processing device 28 with the prescription data based on the imaging of the individual photographing imaging device 27 It is also decided to determine the classification according to appropriate criteria such as prescription units and dosage units.

また、この制御装置は、集合撮影用撮像装置22で撮った画像データと予め登録しておいた空状態の画像データとのパターンマッチング等をそれ自体が行うことにより又は適宜な部分を情報処理装置28に代行させることにより、薬品類収集区画室42のうち仕切23の前に来て視認可能に露出している区画室すなわち払出中区画室が空か否かを判別するようにもなっているが、払出中区画室が空でないときには盆状体回転駆動機構44〜46による円形盆状体41の回転駆動を抑制する。具体的には、仕切23の後方の薬品類収集区画室42に対する薬品類8の集合が済むと自動で、あるいは図示しない押釦等の手動操作に応じて、円形盆状体41を回転させて二つの薬品類収集区画室42a,42bを仕切23から進退させることにより払出中区画室となる薬品類収集区画室42を交代させるが、その回転動作を払出中区画室が空のときに限定するようになっている。   In addition, the control device itself performs pattern matching or the like between the image data taken by the group photographing imaging device 22 and the empty image data registered in advance, or an appropriate part is processed by the information processing device. By substituting for 28, it is determined whether or not the medicine collection compartment 42 which is in front of the partition 23 and is exposed so as to be visible, that is, whether the compartment being dispensed is empty or not. However, when the partitioning chamber is not empty, the rotation of the circular basin body 41 by the basin body rotation driving mechanisms 44 to 46 is suppressed. Specifically, the circular tray 41 is rotated automatically after the collection of the chemicals 8 with respect to the chemical collection compartment 42 behind the partition 23 or in response to a manual operation such as a push button (not shown). The medicine collection compartment 42 serving as the dispensing compartment is changed by moving the two medicine collection compartments 42a, 42b forward and backward from the partition 23, but the rotation operation is limited to when the dispensing compartment is empty. It has become.

この実施例1の調剤監査支援装置20について、その使用態様及び動作を、図面を引用して説明する。
図3(a)〜(b),図4(a)〜(d)は、何れも調剤監査支援装置20の要部機構30+40の平面図であり、調剤監査支援装置20の動作状態を時系列で示している。
About the dispensing inspection assistance apparatus 20 of this Example 1, the use aspect and operation | movement are demonstrated referring drawings.
3 (a) to 3 (b) and FIGS. 4 (a) to 4 (d) are all plan views of the main mechanism 30 + 40 of the dispensing audit support apparatus 20, and the operation states of the dispensing audit support apparatus 20 are time-series. Is shown.

使用に先立って、自動調剤機10の各カセットに対し剤種毎に各種の薬品類8を補充しておくが、この例では薬品類8がPTP包装剤なので、PTP包装剤の表裏面のうち薬品名や薬品コードの印刷されている面が払い出し時に上向きになって薬品類8が搬送機構11の搬送路上に乗り移るよう、PTP包装剤の向きや姿勢を整えて補充しておく。
そして、電源投入等にて、自動調剤機10が薬品類8を自動調剤する準備が整うとともに、それと協動する調剤監査支援装置20が薬品類8を受け入れる準備も整うと、やがて、図示しない付設の調剤指示入力装置や上位の処方オーダーエントリシステム等から、自動調剤機10及び調剤監査支援装置20に、自動調剤の指示が出される。
Prior to use, various chemicals 8 are replenished to each cassette of the automatic dispensing machine 10 for each type of agent. In this example, since the chemicals 8 are PTP packaging agents, of the front and back surfaces of the PTP packaging agent, The surface on which the medicine name and medicine code are printed faces upward when dispensed, and the medicine 8 is transferred onto the transport path of the transport mechanism 11 so that the direction and posture of the PTP packaging agent are adjusted and replenished.
When the automatic dispensing machine 10 is ready to automatically dispense the chemicals 8 when the power is turned on, etc., and the dispensing audit support device 20 that cooperates with the automatic dispensing machine 10 is ready to accept the chemicals 8, an attachment (not shown) is eventually made. From the dispensing instruction input device, the higher-order prescription order entry system, and the like, an automatic dispensing instruction is issued to the automatic dispensing machine 10 and the dispensing audit support device 20.

調剤指示は、処方箋データに基づいて作成されるが、大抵、患者単位や処方単位などの適宜な纏まりで出され、それがそのまま又は適宜な基準で細分化されてから、自動調剤機10では一纏まりの調剤単位とされ、調剤監査支援装置20では薬品類収集区画室42に薬品類8を集合させるときの集合単位とされる。そして、調剤指示に従い自動で、調剤単位や集合単位で一纏まりのものとされる薬品類8が個々に自動調剤機10から払いされて調剤監査支援装置20へ送り込まれる。すなわち、一の調剤単位に属する薬品類8について次々に、自動調剤機10から搬送機構11へ薬品類8が一つずつ払い出されるとともに、搬送機構11から調剤監査支援装置20へも薬品類8が一つずつ送り込まれる。また、その際、薬品類8の送り込みは調剤監査支援装置20の許可を待って行われる。   Dispensing instructions are created based on prescription data, but are usually issued in appropriate groups such as patient units and prescription units, and after being subdivided as they are or according to appropriate standards, the automatic dispensing machine 10 is In the dispensing inspection support apparatus 20, the unit is a unit for collecting the drugs 8 in the drug collection compartment 42. Then, in accordance with the dispensing instruction, the chemicals 8 that are grouped in the dispensing unit or the collective unit are paid individually from the automatic dispensing machine 10 and sent to the dispensing audit support device 20. That is, the chemicals 8 belonging to one dispensing unit are successively discharged from the automatic dispensing machine 10 to the transport mechanism 11 one by one, and the chemicals 8 are also transferred from the transport mechanism 11 to the dispensing audit support device 20. It is sent one by one. At that time, the chemicals 8 are sent in after waiting for permission from the dispensing inspection support apparatus 20.

調剤監査支援装置20に送り込まれる薬品類8は、搬送機構11の搬送路が後傾していて、搬送中に沿わされる奥側ガイド12によって姿勢を整えられるので、搬送機構11の終端から空中へ放出されるが(図3(a)参照)、安定した姿勢で調剤監査支援装置20の載置機構30の回転円板31の上に落下する。
そのとき、回転円板31は、常時定速で回転している。あるいは、薬品類8の受け入れ時期の到来に応じて回転する。しかも、回転円板31における薬品類8の落下部位が例えば左方の適度な高位の所になっていて、そこが先ず後方の低位側へ移動してから右方を経て前方の高位側へ回転移動するような回転方向で、回転円板31が回転する。
The chemicals 8 sent to the dispensing inspection support apparatus 20 are inclined from the end of the transport mechanism 11 because the transport path of the transport mechanism 11 is inclined backward and the posture is adjusted by the back guide 12 along the transport. (See FIG. 3A), but drops onto the rotating disk 31 of the mounting mechanism 30 of the dispensing inspection support device 20 in a stable posture.
At that time, the rotating disk 31 is always rotating at a constant speed. Or it rotates according to the arrival time of the chemicals 8. Moreover, the falling part of the chemicals 8 on the rotating disk 31 is, for example, a moderately high place on the left side, which first moves to the low side on the rear, then rotates to the high side on the front via the right. The rotating disk 31 rotates in such a rotating direction as to move.

そのため、回転円板31に載置された薬品類8は、回転円板31の後傾に対応した重力分力と回転円板31の回転運動に起因する遠心力とによって速やかに後方の低位部分へ移動して固定周壁部材32の内周面に当接するとともに、回転円板31の回転運動に起因する摩擦力によって回転円板31の周方向へも運ばれることにより固定周壁部材32の内周面に沿って移動し、短時間で個別撮像好適領域27aに入る(図3(b)参照)。そして、回転円板31上の薬品類8は、個別撮影用撮像装置27にて撮像されるより先に薬品類8の位置が固定周壁部材32寄りに規制されて薬品類8の撮影位置が毎回同じになるとともに薬品類8の姿勢も毎回同じ安定した状態になるので、個別撮影用撮像装置27で撮った画像が明瞭で処理しやすいものとなる。   Therefore, the chemicals 8 placed on the rotating disk 31 are quickly rearwardly lowered by the gravity component corresponding to the backward tilt of the rotating disk 31 and the centrifugal force resulting from the rotational movement of the rotating disk 31. To the inner peripheral surface of the fixed peripheral wall member 32, and the inner peripheral surface of the fixed peripheral wall member 32 is also carried in the circumferential direction of the rotary disc 31 by the frictional force caused by the rotational movement of the rotary disc 31. It moves along the surface and enters the individual imaging suitable region 27a in a short time (see FIG. 3B). Then, the chemicals 8 on the rotating disk 31 are regulated so that the position of the chemicals 8 is close to the fixed peripheral wall member 32 before being imaged by the individual photographing imaging device 27, and the photographing position of the chemicals 8 is changed every time. At the same time, since the posture of the chemicals 8 is in the same stable state every time, the image taken by the individual photographing imaging device 27 is clear and easy to process.

個別撮影用撮像装置27による撮像が済んだ薬品類8は、回転円板31の回転運動によって薬品類送出口33の所へ運ばれ、そこから撮像後収集機構40へ送り込まれる(図4(a)参照)。撮像後収集機構40では、二つの薬品類収集区画室42のうち一つの薬品類収集区画室42bが、薬品類送出口33の所で回転円板31の下方に来ていて、載置機構30から薬品類8が送り込まれるのを待っているので、薬品類送出口33から送り出された薬品類8は薬品類収集区画室42bに収容される。そして、載置機構30の回転円板31の上から薬品類8が無くなると、次の薬品類8を搬送機構11から調剤監査支援装置20へ送る許可が調剤監査支援装置20から自動調剤機10へ通知されるので、上述したのと同様の自動処理が繰り返される(図3(a),(b),図4(a)参照)。   The medicines 8 that have been imaged by the individual photographing imaging device 27 are transported to the medicine delivery port 33 by the rotational movement of the rotating disk 31, and are sent from there to the collecting mechanism 40 after imaging (FIG. 4 (a)). )reference). In the post-imaging collection mechanism 40, one chemical collection compartment 42 b out of the two chemical collection compartments 42 comes below the rotating disk 31 at the chemical delivery outlet 33, and the placement mechanism 30. Since the chemicals 8 are waiting to be fed from the chemicals delivery port 33, the chemicals 8 delivered from the chemical delivery port 33 are accommodated in the chemicals collection compartment 42b. When the chemicals 8 disappear from the rotating disk 31 of the mounting mechanism 30, permission to send the next chemicals 8 from the transport mechanism 11 to the dispensing audit support device 20 is permitted from the dispensing audit support device 20 to the automatic dispensing machine 10. Therefore, the same automatic processing as described above is repeated (see FIGS. 3A, 3B, and 4A).

その自動処理すなわち薬品類8の個々の払出と撮像とが調剤単位・集合単位で決まる薬品類8の数だけ繰り返されると、調剤監査に一纏まりで供すべき薬品類8が総て薬品類収集区画室42bに収容されて集合するので、次の薬品類8を搬送機構11から調剤監査支援装置20へ送る許可を調剤監査支援装置20から自動調剤機10へ通知するのが一旦待たされて、その間に、撮像後収集機構40では円形盆状体41が半回転する(図4(b)〜(d)参照)。これにより、集合した薬品類8を収容している薬品類収集区画室42bが、仕切23の手前に出てきて停止し、監査台25の作業面26の所で露出されて、監査者の調剤監査に供される。   When the automatic processing, that is, the individual dispensing and imaging of the medicines 8 are repeated by the number of medicines 8 determined by the dispensing unit / collection unit, all of the medicines 8 to be provided to the dispensing audit as a whole are collected in the medicine collection section. Since it is accommodated and gathered in the chamber 42b, it is once awaited that the dispensing inspection support apparatus 20 notifies the automatic dispensing machine 10 of permission to send the next chemicals 8 from the transport mechanism 11 to the dispensing inspection support apparatus 20. Moreover, in the post-imaging collection mechanism 40, the circular basin 41 rotates half a turn (see FIGS. 4B to 4D). As a result, the medicine collection compartment 42b containing the collected medicines 8 comes out in front of the partition 23 and stops, and is exposed at the work surface 26 of the audit table 25, and dispensed by the inspector. Provided for audit.

また、薬品類収集区画室42bと交代に、空の薬品類収集区画室42aが、仕切23の手前から仕切23の後方へ引っ込んで、回転円板31の薬品類送出口33の下方に停止し、載置機構30から次の薬品類8が送り込まれるのを待つ態勢をとるので、次の調剤単位・集合単位に属する薬品類8を調剤し撮像し集合させる自動処理が、調剤単位・集合単位に属する薬品類8を人手で監査する作業と、並行してなされることとなる。円形盆状体41の半回転による薬品類収集区画室42の循環移動は、動作モードの設定に応じて、全自動で行われたり、手動でのボタン操作等に応じた半自動で行われるが、その際、薬品類収集区画室42のうち仕切23の手前に出ていた方の払出中区画室が、集合撮影用撮像装置22で撮られて、払出中区画室の中が空になっているか否かが調べられ、払出中区画室が空になっていなければ円形盆状体41が半回転しないので、薬品類8が集合単位の異なるものと混じり合うという不都合な事態に至るおそれは無い。   Also, instead of the medicine collection compartment 42b, an empty medicine collection compartment 42a retracts from the front of the partition 23 to the rear of the partition 23 and stops below the medicine delivery port 33 of the rotating disk 31. In order to wait for the next medicine 8 to be sent from the mounting mechanism 30, automatic processing for dispensing, imaging and assembling the medicines 8 belonging to the next dispensing unit / aggregation unit is performed as a dispensing unit / aggregation unit. This is done in parallel with the work of manually inspecting the chemicals 8 belonging to the above. The circulation movement of the chemical collection compartment 42 by the half rotation of the circular tray 41 is performed fully automatically according to the setting of the operation mode, or semiautomatically according to manual button operation, At this time, whether the dispensing compartment which is in front of the partition 23 in the medicine collection compartment 42 is taken by the group photographing imaging device 22 and the inside dispensing compartment is empty. If the compartment during dispensing is not empty, the circular basin 41 does not rotate halfway, so there is no possibility that the chemicals 8 may be mixed with a different set unit.

さらに、調剤監査に供された払出中区画室の中の薬品類8については、載置機構30の回転円板31の個別撮像好適領域27aを通過したときに個別撮影用撮像装置27で撮った画像データから情報処理装置28によって薬品情報が既に取得されており、その薬品情報と調剤指示データ等とが自動照合の結果と共に調剤監査支援用表示装置21に対比表示されたり、薬品情報の取得に失敗したときの画像なども調剤監査支援用表示装置21に表示されたりするので、監査者は、迅速かつ適切に監査作業を遂行することができる。   Furthermore, the chemicals 8 in the dispensing compartment subjected to the dispensing inspection were taken by the individual photographing imaging device 27 when passing through the individual photographing suitable region 27a of the rotating disk 31 of the mounting mechanism 30. The drug information is already acquired from the image data by the information processing device 28, and the drug information and the dispensing instruction data are displayed on the dispensing audit support display device 21 together with the result of the automatic collation, or for acquiring the drug information. Since an image or the like at the time of the failure is also displayed on the dispensing audit support display device 21, the inspector can perform the audit work quickly and appropriately.

本発明の調剤監査支援装置の実施例2について、その具体的な構成を、図面を引用して説明する。図5は、(a)が三台の自動調剤機10と一台の調剤監査支援装置20とを連結設置した調剤システムの正面図、(b)が調剤監査支援装置20の要部機構30+40の平面図である。また、 図5(b)〜(c),図6(a)〜(d)は、何れも調剤監査支援装置20の要部機構30+40の平面図であり、調剤監査支援装置20の動作状態を時系列で示している。なお、この実施例2は上述の実施例1の変形例なので、変形箇所以外は図示や説明に際して同一の符号を付している。   A specific configuration of the dispensing inspection support apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 5A is a front view of a dispensing system in which three automatic dispensing machines 10 and one dispensing audit support device 20 are connected and installed, and FIG. 5B is a main mechanism 30 + 40 of the dispensing audit support device 20. It is a top view. 5 (b) to 5 (c) and FIGS. 6 (a) to 6 (d) are plan views of the main mechanism 30 + 40 of the dispensing audit support device 20, and the operation state of the dispensing audit support device 20 is shown. Shown in time series. Since the second embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment described above, the same reference numerals are used in the drawings and explanations except for the deformed portions.

この調剤監査支援装置20が上述した実施例1のものと相違するのは、一台の調剤監査支援装置20に対して三台の自動調剤機10が連結されている点と、載置機構30の固定周壁部材32の一部が回転円板31の中心側へ折り曲げられてストッパ37になっている点と、回転円板31の回転駆動が一方向だけでなく反転位置で一時停止する双方向回転になった点である。   The dispensing audit support device 20 is different from that of the first embodiment described above in that three automatic dispensing machines 10 are connected to one dispensing audit support device 20 and the mounting mechanism 30. A part of the fixed peripheral wall member 32 is bent toward the center side of the rotating disk 31 to form a stopper 37, and the rotation driving of the rotating disk 31 is stopped not only in one direction but also in a reversing position. It is a point that has been rotated.

ストッパ37は、回転円板31の上面のうち薬品類8の落下部位である左方とは反対側の右方の所で回転円板31の縁部から中央へ延びているので(図5(b)参照)、搬送機構11から回転円板31へ送り込まれた薬品類8は、先ず回転円板31の時計回り回転によって後方の低位側で固定周壁部材32に寄せられ、そこを通過するかしないかのうちにストッパ37に当接して止められる(図5(c)参照)。また、そのタイミングを見計らって回転円板31の回転が一時停止するので、一時の間、回転円板31の上の薬品類8が、ストッパ37から後方のところで、確実に静止することとなる。   The stopper 37 extends from the edge of the rotating disk 31 to the center on the right side of the upper surface of the rotating disk 31 opposite to the left where the chemicals 8 are dropped (FIG. 5 ( b)), whether the chemicals 8 fed from the transport mechanism 11 to the rotating disk 31 are first moved toward the fixed peripheral wall member 32 on the lower rear side by the clockwise rotation of the rotating disk 31 and pass therethrough. It is stopped by abutting against the stopper 37 (see FIG. 5C). Further, since the rotation of the rotary disk 31 is temporarily stopped at the timing, the chemicals 8 on the rotary disk 31 are surely stopped at a position behind the stopper 37 for a temporary period.

その静止位置は個別撮像好適領域27aに含まれている(図5(c)の散点模様を参照)。そのため、個別撮影用撮像装置27で個別撮像好適領域27aを撮ったときに、静止状態の薬品類8を撮ることができるので、移動中の薬品類8を撮ったときより鮮明な画像が得られ、その結果、薬品情報を取得できる確率が高まる。個別撮影用撮像装置27による薬品類8の撮像が済むと、回転円板31が反時計回りに回転して回転円板31上の薬品類8が薬品類送出口33のところへ移送され(図6(a)参照)、更に薬品類8が薬品類送出口33から送り出されて仕切23の後方の薬品類収集区画室42bに収容される(図6(b)参照)。そして、一纏まりの薬品類8が集合すると、円形盆状体41が半回転して(図6(c),(d)参照)、薬品類8を収容している薬品類収集区画室42bが仕切23の前方に出てくる一方、空の薬品類収集区画室42aが仕切23の後方へ引っ込む。   The rest position is included in the individual imaging suitable region 27a (see the dotted pattern in FIG. 5C). Therefore, when the individual imaging suitable area 27a is taken by the individual photographing imaging device 27, it is possible to take the medicine 8 in a stationary state, so that a clearer image can be obtained than when the medicine 8 in motion is taken. As a result, the probability that drug information can be acquired increases. When the chemicals 8 are imaged by the individual photographing imaging device 27, the rotating disk 31 rotates counterclockwise, and the chemicals 8 on the rotating disk 31 are transferred to the chemical delivery port 33 (see FIG. 6 (a)), and further, the chemicals 8 are sent out from the chemical delivery port 33 and stored in the chemicals collection compartment 42b behind the partition 23 (see FIG. 6 (b)). When the group of medicines 8 is gathered, the circular tray 41 is rotated halfway (see FIGS. 6C and 6D), and the medicine collection compartment 42b containing the medicines 8 is formed. While coming out in front of the partition 23, an empty medicine collection compartment 42 a is retracted to the rear of the partition 23.

このように、この実施例2の調剤監査支援装置20は、上述した実施例1のものに比べて、撮像による薬品情報の取得能力が向上するが、反転や一時停止等のために一つの薬品類8の処理に要する時間が長くなるので、取り扱う薬品類8の形態や薬品情報印刷状態などに応じて使い分けると良い。また、いずれのタイプの薬品類8についても適切な処理が行えるよう、ストッパ37を可動式にして、ストッパ37が回転円板31の上へ薬品類8の剤種に応じて進退するようにしても良い。   As described above, the dispensing audit support apparatus 20 of the second embodiment improves the ability to acquire drug information by imaging as compared with the first embodiment described above, but one drug is used for reversal or temporary stop. Since the time required for the processing of the type 8 becomes long, it is preferable to use them properly according to the form of the chemicals 8 to be handled and the chemical information printing state. In addition, the stopper 37 is movable so that appropriate processing can be performed for any type of chemicals 8, and the stopper 37 advances and retreats on the rotating disc 31 according to the type of chemicals 8. Also good.

本発明の調剤監査支援装置の実施例3について、その具体的な構成を、図面を引用して説明する。図7(a)〜(d)は、何れも調剤監査支援装置20の要部機構30+40の平面図であり、調剤監査支援装置の構造と動作状態を示している。この実施例も上述の実施例1の変形例なので、変形箇所以外のところには同一の符号を付している。   A specific configuration of the dispensing inspection support apparatus according to the third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIGS. 7A to 7D are all plan views of main mechanisms 30 + 40 of the dispensing audit support apparatus 20 and show the structure and operating state of the dispensing audit support apparatus. Since this embodiment is also a modification of the above-described first embodiment, the same reference numerals are assigned to portions other than the deformation portion.

この調剤監査支援装置が上述した実施例1のものと相違するのは、円形盆状体41の内部が円中心を通る区画部材43によって120゜ずつの等角に区分けされて円形盆状体41に三つの薬品類収集区画室42(即ち42a,42b,42c)が形成されている点と、それらの薬品類収集区画室42のうち円形盆状体41の回転によって払出中区画室になったものの内部全域が露出するように仕切23の中央部分が後方へ凹んでいる点と(図7(a)参照)、薬品類収集区画室42a,42b,42cを循環移動させるために行われる円形盆状体41の間欠回転が120゜づつ行われるようになった点である。   The dispensing inspection support apparatus is different from that of the first embodiment described above in that the circular basin 41 is divided into 120 ° equiangular portions by a partition member 43 passing through the center of the circle. The three chemical collection compartments 42 (that is, 42a, 42b, 42c) are formed in the same, and the circular collection body 41 of the chemical collection compartments 42 is rotated to become a dispensing middle compartment. A circular tray used to circulate and move the chemical collection compartments 42a, 42b, and 42c, with the central portion of the partition 23 recessed rearward so that the entire interior of the object is exposed (see FIG. 7A). This is the point that the intermittent rotation of the state body 41 is performed 120 degrees at a time.

[その他]
上記実施例では、円形盆状体41が仕切23の下方に配置されるとともに、区画部材43の一部が仕切23の下部の区画室進退用開口24の所に配置されていたが、区画室進退用開口24を拡大して円形盆状体41に適合させて、区画部材43を含めた円形盆状体41の全体または上部を区画室進退用開口24の所に配置しても良く、あるいは、区画部材43における突き上げ部分の形成や区画室進退用開口24の形成が必須ではないので、それらの形成をやめて、円形盆状体41に加えて区画部材43まで仕切23の下方に配置しても良い。
[Others]
In the above embodiment, the circular tray 41 is disposed below the partition 23 and a part of the partition member 43 is disposed at the partition chamber advancing / retreating opening 24 below the partition 23. The advancing / retreating opening 24 may be enlarged and adapted to the circular basin 41, and the whole or upper part of the circular basin 41 including the partition member 43 may be disposed at the compartment advancement / retreating opening 24, or Since the formation of the push-up portion in the partition member 43 and the formation of the compartment chamber advance / retreat opening 24 are not essential, these formations are stopped and the partition member 43 is arranged below the partition 23 in addition to the circular tray 41. Also good.
