Description

{A APPARATUS FOR PREPATATION MEDICINE}

More particularly, the present invention relates to a medicine preparation apparatus comprising: a support on which a bag containing pills is placed; And a pressurizing portion for pressurizing the pouch containing the pellet to crush the pellet, wherein the pressurizing portion includes a pressurizing surface that contacts the pellet when the pellet is pressed and impacts the pellet contained in the pellet, , The pressing surface includes a portion having a height different from that of the support portion and different in height from each other.

The medicines are usually prepared in the form of pills, which are stored in a predetermined medicine bag and administered to the patient. Such medicament in the form of a pill has a relatively small contact area in the body and may delay the time for effecting the medicament. In some cases, it is difficult to eat such a pill, and therefore, the medicament is pulverized and prepared in powder form .

In preparing such a powdered powder, it is time-consuming to crush the pellets individually. In addition, since the crushing is not performed uniformly, the convenience of the user may be impaired.

Accordingly, although a pulverizing apparatus for pulverizing pellets has been developed and used, it is often the case that pulverization of the pellets by the pulverizing apparatus is not appropriately performed due to other factors such as the size of the pellets being not constant.

The pressurizing unit 800 presses the pellets in contact with the pellets when pressing the pellets, And the pressing surface 810 includes a portion having a different height from the supporting surface 802 and having a different spacing from the supporting surface 802.

On the support portion 802, a bag containing the pills is placed. At this time, preferably, a predetermined transporting device for transporting the bag may be further provided on the support portion 802. [ For example, the conveying device may be a predetermined conveyor belt, or a predetermined conveying means, but is not limited thereto. Further, the conveying device and the supporting part 802 may be integrally formed and conveyed and supported simultaneously.

The pressing portion 800 presses the bag placed on the supporting portion 802 to crush the tablets contained in the bag. Accordingly, the pressing unit 800 may be constituted by a member having a predetermined weight and strength so as to be displaced in a predetermined direction to impact the bag. For example, the pressing portion 800 may be displaced in the vertical direction with respect to the support portion 802 to apply shock to the pellets in the bag, A predetermined driving device may be provided.

As the pressing portion 800 presses the bag, at least one surface of the pressing portion 800 is brought into contact with the bag when the pressing portion 800 presses the bag, so that the pressing portion 800 ) May include a pressing surface 810 that impacts the pills contained within the bag. The pressing surface 810 is not limited to one surface in the pressing portion 800 and can be understood to refer to a predetermined portion which is in contact with the bag and exerts a substantial impact on the pellet.

The pressing surfaces 810 are configured to include portions having different heights and different distances from the supporting portions 802.

That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the pressing surface 810 may be configured to have a partly different height. The height refers to the distance between the pressing surface 810 and the supporting portion 802 when the pressing portion 800 is raised such that the pressing surface 810 is brought into contact with the supporting surface with the supporting portion 802 as a bottom surface. The presence of a portion having a different height as an interval means that there is a portion where the intervals are different from each other. Accordingly, in other words, in other words, the pressing portion 800 may be constituted by a member having a partly different thickness from each other, or the pressing surface 810 of the pressing portion 800 is not a flat plane, And the like.

For example, preferably, the pressing surface 810 may be composed of at least a portion of an inclined surface having an angle between the supporting portion 802 and a predetermined angle. 1, at least a portion of the pressing surface 810 is formed of an inclined surface having a predetermined angle? With respect to the supporting portion 802, and is disposed between the pressing surface 810 and the supporting portion 802 May be partially different.

For example, the pressing surface 810 may have a curved surface having a predetermined curvature by increasing or decreasing the size of the intervening angle, at least a portion of which has a predetermined angle with the supporting portion 802 have. As shown in FIG. 2, at least a portion of the pressing surface 810 is configured to have a predetermined angle with respect to the supporting portion 802, and the size of the angle of the angle is partially increased or decreased to have a predetermined curvature A curved surface can be formed. Accordingly, the distance between the pressing surface 810 and the support portion 802 may be partially different.

According to one embodiment, the pressing surface 810 includes a plurality of impact surfaces 820 having at least one step 815 formed thereon, the plurality of impact surfaces 820 being different in height from each other, And are spaced apart from each other by the support portion 802.

3, the pressure surface 810 may include one or more steps 815 to have a plurality of impact surfaces 820 separated from one another through the step 815 . Here, the step 815 can be understood to mean a step that allows the pressing surface 810 to be partially different in height.

Through the step 815, the pressing surface 810 is partly divided, and each of the dividing surfaces can be referred to as an impact surface 820. For example, when two steps 815 are formed as shown in FIG. 3, the pressing surface 810 may be divided into three impact surfaces 820 through the step 815. That is, the pressing surface 810 may have a configuration including three impact surfaces 820. Further, each of the impact surfaces 820 may have a different spacing from the support portion 802, as described above.

4, the width W1 of the impact surface 820 at the lowermost end of the impact surface 820 by the step 815 may be smaller than the width W2 of the weak seal P, as shown in FIG. Accordingly, even when pressure is applied by the impact surface 820, pressurization of the entirety of the pouch P is avoided so that the air in the pouch P can be pushed to at least one side and damage to the pouch P can be prevented .

According to one embodiment, preferably, the step 815 is configured to be raised or lowered in one direction, and the interval between the several impact surfaces 820 and the support portion 802 may be sequentially Or < / RTI > decreased.

That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the step 815 may have a step-like structure that is raised or lowered in one direction. Accordingly, the gap between the impact surface 820 and the support portion 802 can be sequentially enlarged or reduced in one direction.

On the other hand, each of the impact surfaces 820 can have an easy configuration for pressurizing and crushing the pill and preventing damage to the medicine bag. In one example, the impact surface 820 of at least one of the plurality of impact surfaces 820 may be configured to have a predetermined irregularity so as to have a configuration that is easy to crush the pellets. 5, at least one impact surface 820 of the plurality of impact surfaces 820 may be formed as an inclined surface having a predetermined angle with the support portion 802, At least one impact surface 820 of the plurality of impact surfaces 820 may include a curved surface, as shown in FIG. 6, but is not limited thereto.

As described above, since the gap between the pressing surface 810 of the pressing portion 800 and the supporting portion 802 is different from each other, when the medicine bag is pressed through the pressing portion 800, At least a portion thereof does not come into contact with the pressing surface 810, so that all portions of the medicine bag can be prevented from being pressed, and the medicine bag can be prevented from being blown or broken by the air pressure in the medicine bag.

In addition, as described above, the portions where the pressurizing surface 810 of the pressurizing portion 800 and the support portion 802 are different from each other are configured as described above, so that appropriate pressurization and crushing can be achieved according to the size of the tablet.

That is, when a large-sized tablet and a small-sized tablet are mixed, a primary impact and a crushing are performed through a relatively large portion between the support portion 802 and the impact surface 820, so that the large- , Then a secondary impact and fracture may occur through a relatively small portion between the support portion 802 and the impact surface 820 so that the entire pellets may be fractured evenly.

Accordingly, overall crushing can be made evenly and the crushing can be easily performed even with a small power, as compared with the case where the whole pellets are crushed through the impact surface 820 at the same interval.

In addition, as described above, the crushing may be performed such that the step 815 is raised or lowered in one direction so that the interval between the several impact surfaces 820 and the support portion 802 sequentially increases in one direction , Or can be more effectively ensured by being formed to be reduced. This is also true in the case of a shape having a slope or a shape having a curved surface, which is the above embodiment.

7 is a view showing a drug preparation device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Preferably, the at least one impact surface 820 of the plurality of impact surfaces 820 includes a groove 830 through which the gas in the bag can be captured.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the groove 830 may be formed on the impact surface 820 closest to the support portion 802, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the number of the groove portions 830 is not limited. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the groove 830 may be formed entirely on each impact surface 820.

The groove portion 830 has a predetermined depth and size so that when the medicine bag is pressed, air in the medicine bag can be drawn into the groove portion 830 to swell a part of the medicine bag.

With the provision of the groove portion 830, it is possible to more easily accomplish that the bag is blown or damaged despite the pressure by the pressing portion 800.

9 is a view showing a pressing unit 800 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 9, the corners of the plurality of impact surfaces 820 may be formed as curved curved surfaces.

That is, the edge of the portion of step 815 constituting between the respective impact surfaces 820 can be appropriately polished or processed to form a curved surface. Accordingly, each impact surface 820 has a curvature and can form a smooth connection. According to this configuration, it is possible to prevent the weak seal from being blown or damaged by the corner portion of the impact surface 820. [ On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 10, each outer edge of the pressing portion 800 may also be curved, but is not limited thereto.

11 and 12 are views showing the pressing unit 800 of the medicine preparation apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

11 and 12, it is preferable that the pressing portion 800 includes a plurality of pressing bodies 840 selectively detachable, and each pressing body 840 has one or more impact surfaces 820).

That is, the pressing portion 800 includes a plurality of pressing bodies 840, and each of the pressing bodies 840 includes one or more impact surfaces 820, and may be configured to be detachable from each other.

The connection between the pressing bodies 840 can be achieved by a predetermined connecting means. For example, a predetermined protrusion 842 and a predetermined groove (not shown) into which the protrusion is inserted may be provided on a side surface of each pressure body 840 to allow the pressure body 840 to be detached and attached, But not limited thereto. Accordingly, the pressing body 840 may be formed of a member such as a predetermined block, and the pressing portion 800 may be formed of a predetermined structure in which the plurality of blocks are coupled.

Each of the pressers 840 may include one or more impact surfaces 820. That is, one pressure member 840 may form one impact surface 820, and the gap between the impact surface 820 and the support portion 802 may be different from each other as described above.

For example, when a plurality of impact surfaces 820 having different distances from each other are required because the types and sizes of the tablets contained in the medicine bag are varied, a plurality of impact members 840 are connected to form a plurality of impact surfaces 820 When the pellets can be easily broken by only a small number of impact surfaces 820 due to the small number and types of pellets housed in the pellets, a small number of pressure members 840 Can be connected to form a pressing portion 800 having a small number of impact surfaces 820 formed therein.

In addition, the pressing surface 810 having various shapes can be formed according to the crushing application and the shape of the pill. That is, by arbitrarily selecting the connection form of the pressing body 840, not only the pressing face 810 having the sequential step 815 described above can be formed, but also a predetermined concave face as shown in FIG. 12 The pressing surface 810 may be formed, but is not limited thereto.

As described above, since the pressing portion 800 including the plurality of pressure members 840 configured to be detachable is configured, more effective breaking of the pill can be achieved, and breakage of the medicine bag accommodating the pill can be prevented more effectively have.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments, but, on the contrary, It should be understood that various modifications may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
