In the example shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, each of the first containing portion 410 and the second containing portion 420 can contain a plurality of contents arranged in a row. The portions 420 are arranged side by side.

In the example shown in Figures 1 and 2, the blister pack 400 is a PTP and the contents housed in the blister pack 400 are tablets. In other examples, the contents contained in the blister pack 400 may be items other than tablets, such as food (eg, confectionery) or merchandise.

The holder 10 includes a base 100 , a cover 200 , a first board 310 and a second board 320 .

Base 100 has a first region 102 and a second region 104 . The first region 102 has ribs 110 , first spaces 112 and second spaces 114 . The contents pushed out from the first containing portion 410 of the blister pack 400 fall into the first space 112 , and the contents pushed out from the second containing portion 420 of the blister pack 400 fall into the second space 114 . The second region 104 is aligned with the first region 102 in the direction along the ribs 110 of the first region 102 . Accordingly, the contents within the first space 112 and the contents within the second space 114 can be conveyed from the first region 102 to the second region 104 along the ribs 110 .

The first board 310 has a first opening 312 and a second opening 314 . The first board 310 is positionable on the base 100 such that the first opening 312 overlaps the first space 112 and the second opening 314 overlaps the second space 114 . The blister pack 400 is positionable on the first board 310 such that the first container 410 overlaps the first opening 312 and the second container 420 overlaps the second opening 314 . Therefore, the content pushed out from the first containing portion 410 can drop into the first space 112 via the first opening 312, and the content pushed out from the second containing portion 420 can drop into the second opening 312. It can drop into the second space 114 via the opening 314 . Additionally, the portion of the first board 310 between the first opening 312 and the second opening 314 can be supported by the ribs 110 . The first board 310 can be stably arranged with respect to the base 100 .

The second board 320 has an opening 322 . The second board 320 is positioned over the first board 310 such that the blister pack 400 is positioned between the first board 310 and the second board 320 and the opening 322 overlaps the first and second housings 410 and 420 . can be placed in Therefore, the first accommodating portion 410 and the second accommodating portion 420 can be exposed from the opening 322 and the contents of the first accommodating portion 410 and the contents of the second accommodating portion 420 can be pushed out toward the base 100 .

Each board may be replaced according to the type of blister pack. The location of the blister pack receptacle may vary depending on the type of blister pack. Therefore, by using a board having appropriate openings according to the positions of the storage portions, the holder 10 can hold various types of blister packs without the need to replace the base 100 and the cover 200 .

The cover 200 can be opened and closed with respect to the base 100 . Thus, the cover 200 can be opened relative to the base 100 to allow the first board 310, the second board 320 and the blister pack 400 to be removed from the base 100, as shown in FIG. 1, and shown in FIG.

3 to 6 are diagrams for explaining an example of a method for taking out the content P from the holder 10. FIG. In the example shown in FIGS. 3-6, the contents P are the contents extruded from the blister pack 400 shown in FIGS.

An example of a method of sending the content P from the first area 102 of the base 100 to the second area 104 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. FIG.

The second region 104 of the base 100 has passages 130 and openings 132 . The opening 132 is for letting the contents sent via the first space 112 and the second space 114 of the first region 102 out of the second region 104 . Opening 132 communicates with first space 112 and second space 114 of first region 102 via path 130 .

The content P is transferred from the first region 102 of the base 100 to the second region 104 in the following manner. First, as shown in FIG. 3, the base 100 is tilted so that the position of the second region 104 is lower than the position of the first region 102 . Thereby, the content P moves from the first area 102 of the base 100 toward the second area 104 . Contents P then enters path 130 in second region 104 of base 100, as shown in FIG. 4, and is stopped by gate 126, described below with reference to FIGS.

An example of a method for sending the content P to the outside of the second area 104 of the base 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. FIG.

A second region 104 of the base 100 has an adjuster 120 . The adjuster 120 has a moving member 122 , a gate 124 and a gate 126 . The moving member 122 is movable in the direction crossing the path 130 , and the gates 124 and 126 are movable together with the moving member 122 in the direction crossing the path 130 . Gate 124 is further from opening 132 than gate 126 in the direction along path 130 . In one state (FIG. 5), the gate 124 opens the path 130 and the gate 126 closes the path 130, and in another state (FIG. 6) the gate 124 closes the path 130 and the gate 126 closes. It is movable to open the gate 126 .

A plurality of contents sent from the first region 102 of the base 100 are sent one by one to the opening 132 by the regulator 120 . Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, content P is stopped by gate 126 . When the moving member 122 is then moved, the gate 126 opens the path 130 and the gate 124 closes the path 130, as shown in FIG. Therefore, the content P can move toward the opening 132 and exit the base 100 via the opening 132 . Further, in FIG. 6, if a content other than content P is sent to path 130, this content will be stopped by gate 124. FIG. Therefore, a plurality of contents sent from the first region 102 of the base 100 can be sent to the opening 132 one by one.

Base 100 may include a sensor for sensing content passing through gate 126 (ie, content exiting base 100). Whether or not the contents have been removed from the blister pack 400 can be determined based on the detection result of the sensor.

Next, an example of how to use the holder 10 will be described. In this example, the blister pack 400 is a PTP and the contents housed in the blister pack 400 are tablets. In the following manner, holder 10 can function as a device for assisting in taking tablets.

Holder 10 includes a sensor for detecting removal of contents from blister pack 400 . The detection result of the sensor can be stored in the server via the network outside the holder 10 . In this way, a history of taking out contents from the blister pack 400 (that is, a history of taking tablets) can be created. A system external to the holder 10 can refer to this history and determine whether or not the tablets have been taken according to a predetermined schedule. If the tablet has not been taken according to the predetermined schedule, the system outside the holder 10 sends information to the terminal (for example, mobile phone) owned by the user to prompt them to take the tablet. In this way, it assists in taking the tablets.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a modification of FIG. As shown in FIG. 7 , the first opening 212 of the cover 200 may overlap both the first receiving portion 410 and the second receiving portion 420 of the blister pack 400 . In other words, in the example shown in FIG. 7 , the opening of the cover 200 is not separated into an opening overlapping the first accommodating portion 410 and an opening overlapping the second accommodating portion 420 . In the example shown in FIG. 7 as well, the blister pack 400 can be stably arranged with respect to the base 100, and the contents can be easily removed from the blister pack 400. As shown in FIG.

The blister pack 400 has a width along a first edge 402 and a second edge 404 and a length along a third edge 406 and a fourth edge 408 . In the example shown in FIG. 11, the length of the blister pack 400 (along third edge 406 and fourth edge 408) is greater than the width of blister pack 400 (along first edge 402 and second edge 404). It's becoming

The blister pack 400 has a container 430 . A first edge 402 , a second edge 404 , a third edge 406 and a fourth edge 408 are located outside the housing portion 430 . The accommodation portion 430 has a first accommodation portion 410 and a second accommodation portion 420 . The first accommodating portion 410 and the second accommodating portion 420 are arranged in the direction along the width of the blister pack 400 (the direction along the first edge 402 and the second edge 404). In each of the first container 410 and the second container 420, a plurality of contents are arranged in the direction along the length of the blister pack 400 (the direction along the third edge 406 and the fourth edge 408).

Blister pack 400 includes a plurality of identifiers, namely first identifier 442 , second identifier 444 and third identifier 446 . Each identification part is for indicating at least part of the attribute information of the contents. The attribute information of the content presents different information according to the combination of information indicated by each identification section. In the example shown in FIG. 11, the information indicated by each identifier is the presence or absence of a portion of blister pack 400 missing (notch on first edge 402). In the example shown in FIG. 11, each of the first identification portion 442 and the second identification portion 444 includes a missing portion of the blister pack 400 and the third identification portion 446 includes a portion of the blister pack 400 missing. not In this example, if the blister pack 400 includes n identifiers, the blister pack 400 can indicate 2 ⁿ types of attribute information depending on the presence or absence of the lack.

In the example shown in FIG. 11 , the first identifier 442 , the second identifier 444 and the third identifier 446 are located on the first edge 402 of the blister pack 400 . Therefore, it is not necessary to overlap the contents with the detector for detecting each identifier.

The information indicated by each identifier is the color of the marker. The attribute information of the content presents different information according to the combination of information (color) indicated by each identification section. In the example shown in FIG. 15, each identifier includes a colored marker. The markers are located on the side of the blister pack 400 facing the first board 310 . The color of each marker can be one of two different colors, eg black and white. When the blister pack 400 includes n identifiers, when each marker has one of M different colors (M is an integer of 2 or more), the blister pack 400 includes n identifiers. Colors (for example, black or white) can represent M ⁿ types of attribute information. Each identification portion is located between the first edge 402 and the receiving portion 430 . Therefore, it is possible to prevent the detector for detecting the identifier from interfering with taking out of the contents.

Each detector (the first detector 142, the second detector 144 and the third detector 146) of the holder 10 is an optical sensor. The first detector 142, the second detector 144, and the third detector 146 respectively overlap the first identification section 442, the second identification section 444, and the third identification section 446 during at least part of the wearing period. During at least part of the wearing period, each photosensor (detector) identifies the color of each identifier. In this way, the holder 10 can identify attribute information of the contents of the blister pack 400 .

FIG. 16 shows a fourth modification of the holder 10 shown in FIGS. 8-10. The example shown in FIG. 16 is similar to the example shown in FIG. 13, except for the following points.

The information indicated by each identifier is the color of the marker. The attribute information of the content presents different information according to the information (color) indicated by each identification section. In the example shown in FIG. 16, a single identifier (first identifier 442) includes a colored marker. The color of the marker may be changed according to the attribute information of the contents. The first identification portion 442 is positioned outside the first edge 402 . Therefore, it is possible to prevent the detector for detecting the identifier from interfering with taking out of the contents.

The first detector 142 of the holder 10 is an optical sensor. The first detector 142 overlaps the first identification section 442 during at least part of the wearing period. During at least part of the wearing period, the optical sensor (first detector 142 ) identifies the color of the first identification section 442 . In this way, the holder 10 can identify attribute information of the contents of the blister pack 400 .

FIG. 17 shows a sixth modification of the holder 10 shown in FIGS. 8-10. The example shown in FIG. 17 is similar to the example shown in FIG. 13, except for the following points.

As shown in FIG. 17, instead of the blister pack 400, the second board 320 may include the identification portion. In the example shown in FIG. 17 , the second board 320 includes multiple identifiers, namely a first identifier 342 , a second identifier 344 and a third identifier 346 . The first detector 142, the second detector 144, and the third detector 146 can detect the first identifier 342, the second identifier 344, and the third identifier 346, respectively, during at least part of the wearing period. Also in this example, the holder 10 can identify the attribute information of the contents of the blister pack 400 .

18 is a diagram showing a modification of FIG. 1. FIG.

As shown in FIG. 18, the second region 400b may not have an accommodation portion (eg, the second accommodation portion 420 shown in FIG. 1). In the example shown in FIG. 18, the second area 400b has a sheet material that can overlap the second space 114 of the base 100. In the example shown in FIG. In the example shown in FIG. 18, the ribs 110 can also support the portion of the blister pack 400 between the first region 400a and the second region 400b. Therefore, the blister pack 400 can be stably arranged with respect to the base 100 .

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the drawings, these are examples of the present invention, and various configurations other than those described above can also be adopted.
