- the chemical data means the type, remaining amount, shape, etc. of chemical D stored in each shelf member 2.
- the map data includes a container map and an article map (here, a medicine map).
- the container map is obtained by dividing the inside of the tray 5 from which the medicine D is dispensed into a plurality of areas, that is, virtual areas (hereinafter referred to as container virtual areas), and assigning an identification number to each container virtual area.
- container virtual areas virtual areas
- the identification numbers from 1 to 60 are sequentially assigned to the lower force in each row in order of the left end force.
- the sizes of the container virtual areas are all the same, and the container maps are stored in the storage device 64 according to the type of the tray 5.
- presence / absence data indicating whether or not the stored medicine D is located (for example, “1” for presence data when positioned, “1” when not positioned) No data is set to “0”).
- each medicine D accommodated in the tray 5 is divided into the same size as the container virtual area, and each divided virtual area (hereinafter, the virtual area of the medicine map is referred to as a medicine virtual area). .) Is given an identification number.
- the identification numbers from a to n are consecutive from the bottom to the top in each row in order of the left end force. Are granted.
- a size larger than the actual drug D size by one drug virtual area from the center of the right edge is used.
- the protrusion at the center of the upper edge is the shape of drug D.
- the container virtual region and the medicine virtual region have the same size.
- the container virtual area can be a size combining a plurality of medicine virtual areas
- the medicine virtual area can be a size combining a plurality of container virtual areas.
- the size and shape of each virtual region can be freely set (a triangle or the like can be used if it is a shape). In short, it is only necessary that the correspondence between the virtual areas is clear between the container and the medicine and that it is possible to search whether the container can contain the medicine.
- the medicine dispensing data stored in the storage device 64 is read based on the input prescription data (step S2). Based on the read medicine dispensing data, the cassette 26 of the shelf member 2 from which the medicine D included in the prescription data is taken out is determined (step S3). Further, based on the shape of the medicine D included in the medicine dispensing data, the interval between the holding pieces 54 is determined in advance to a value slightly larger than the width dimension of the medicine D (step S4). As a result, the medicine D can be clamped with the minimum necessary operation while the medicine gripping member 40 is moved to the position immediately before the medicine D, and the operation time can be shortened. In addition, since the interval between the holding pieces 54 with respect to the width dimension of the medicine D can be minimized, the arrangement of the cassettes 26 in each shelf member 2 can be brought close to a position that does not interfere with the holding pieces 54. it can.
- step S5 the drug delivery member 3 is driven, and the drug gripping member 40 is moved to the shelf member 2 in which the corresponding drug D is stored (step S5). And the medicine gripping member 40 If it moves to the position immediately before the shelf member 2 in which D is accommodated (step S6), the first motor 48 is driven in the forward direction to advance the forward / backward moving member 43 (step S7). Then, the second motor 59 is driven to hold the drug D by the holding piece 54 (step S8).
- step S9 it is determined whether or not the force that the drug D is properly clamped by the clamping piece 54 (step S9).
- This determination detects the energized state of the second motor 59 and causes an overcurrent. It depends on whether you have power or not. If an overcurrent occurs and the detected voltage value exceeds a preset threshold value, for example, it is determined that the drug D is held by the holding piece 54. If the detected voltage value does not exceed the threshold value, it is determined that nothing is held by the holding piece 54.
- step S10 When it is determined that the drug D is not properly clamped by the clamping piece 54, the corresponding force set 26 is informed that the drug D is not contained and that it is a missing item (step S10).
- Step S 11 it is determined whether or not continuous processing is set!. If the continuous process is not set, the operation is stopped (step S12), and if it is set, the process returns to step S1 to repeat the above process.
- the driving motor 41 of the drug transporting member 3 is driven to rotate forward, the drug gripping member 40 is raised, and the drug D clamped by the clamping piece 54 is removed. Pull out from cassette 26 (step S13). Then, the first motor 48 is driven in reverse to return the medicine gripping member 40 to the position immediately before the cassette 26 (step S14). At this time, in the cassette 26, the medicine D is pushed forward by the pusher 31 urged by the constant load panel 32 and moves forward. For this reason, medicine D contacts the inner surface of the front end of the cassette 26 and is automatically prepared for the next dispensing.
- the medicine gripping member 40 is moved to a predetermined position on the tray transport line 4 (step S15).
- the tray 5 is transported by the tray transport line 4 and is kept waiting at the above position (step S16).
- Step S17 As a result, it is possible to store the medicine D sideways in the tray 5 while suppressing the dimension in the front-rear direction of the space formed on the front side of the shelf member 2 in the apparatus body 1.
- the arrangement position of the medicine conveying member 3 and the position where the shelf member 2 is pulled out and the medicine D is replenished into the cassette 26 are determined as follows. Since it can be placed on the front side of 1, the same space can be shared, and the device itself can be made compact. Since the medicine D, which is held by rotating the holding piece 54 on the lower side of the shelf member 2 positioned at the lowest position in the medicine transport member 3, can be discharged to the tray 5, the shelf member 2 and the main body of the apparatus The space formed between the front of 1 can be suppressed. Further, since the shelf member 2 can be pulled out obliquely downward, even if it is the first shelf member 2a located at the uppermost position, it is possible to easily fill the cassette 26 with the medicine D.
- the dispensing process for dispensing the medicine D onto the tray 5 by the medicine gripping member 40 is executed according to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 15A and 15B.
- the medicine map is read from the storage device 64 for the medicine D to be dispensed to the tray 5 (step S21). Further, the container map of the tray 5 is read (step S22). Then, in the descending order of the identification numbers assigned to the container virtual area, it is confirmed whether or not there is power with the data of the search destination address (step S23). If there is no data for the search destination address, all of the drug virtual area is fitted to the corresponding container virtual area (step S24), and it is determined whether or not placement is possible (step S25).
- step S23 If at least one of the corresponding virtual areas in the container map has! /, There is valid data, and if it is determined that it is empty, the drug D cannot be dispensed to that position. If it is determined in step S23 that there is data for the search destination address, or if it is determined in step S25 that not all of the medicine virtual area can be applied to the corresponding container virtual area, Drug D cannot be placed. Therefore, the search target 1 is added to the number i assigned to the “less” (step S28), and the processing of steps S23 to S25 is repeated until all container virtual regions are searched, that is, until i reaches 60 (step S29).
- Step S30 This process is performed within the range (s4) where the search target stage s does not reach 4 stages (step S31).
- step S26 it is determined whether or not it is free. That is, when this determination is made in the first stage, it is similarly determined whether or not each container virtual region has no data in the second and subsequent stages (step S32).
- the decision after the second stage is also made when two or more kinds of drugs D with priorities are given to one tray 5 even if the first stage is an empty area. This is because it is assumed that the eyes are not open.
- step S26 when two types of medicines D in a rectangular shape in plan view are accommodated in the upper and lower stages, if the occupation area of the medicine D accommodated in the first stage is smaller than the medicine D accommodated in the second stage, Even if there is no data in the first-tier container virtual area, the corresponding second-stage data may be present, so the determination in step S26 is performed.
- step S26 determination in step S26 is similarly performed even when the medicine D has a height dimension that reaches a plurality of stages. However, in this case, it is also necessary to judge whether or not the top row of medicine D is within tray 5.
- This process is performed within a range where the chemical height does not exceed the container height (step S33).
- the search process is performed within the range (s ⁇ 4) where the target stage s does not reach the fourth stage.
- step S29 to S31 when a space where medicine D can be arranged is not detected until all the container virtual regions are searched, or medicine D can be arranged in the height direction in step S33. If no space is detected, error processing is executed, or the process proceeds to payout to the next tray (step S34).
- the identification number “a” of the medicine virtual area can be assigned to the identification number “5” by searching the container virtual area of the container map in descending order. There is no medicine virtual area at the position corresponding to the force identification number “b”. For this reason, the payout position cannot be determined. Sequentially, even if the virtual drug identification number “a” is assigned to the identification numbers “6” to “20”, the dispensing position cannot be specified, and the chemical virtual area identification number “a” is assigned the identification number “21”. It is possible to apply the entire drug virtual area of the drug map to the empty area of the container map. Therefore, this position is determined as the payout position.
- the force for performing the operation of dispensing the medicine D to the tray 5 When the tray 5 is configured to accommodate the medicine D in a plurality of stages, the medicine D cannot be accommodated in the first stage. If so, the vacant area is detected in the same manner as described above for the second and subsequent stages, and the payout position is determined.
- the shelf member 2 is pulled out to replenish the medicine D. do it. That is, by pulling the lock member 23, the locking portion 24 is disengaged from the locking receiving portion 17 of the apparatus body 1, the handle 22 is gripped, and the shelf member 2 is pulled out. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3, the uppermost shelf member 2 can be tilted by pulling the leading end side downwards after being pulled out from the apparatus body 1. Specifically, when the handle 22 is gripped and the shelf member 2 is pulled, the first rail portion 13 and the second rail portion 14 are sequentially extended on the side wall, and the guide roller 25 slides on the first guide surface 9. As a result, the shelf member 2 moves horizontally to the front side.
- the guide roller 25 When the guide roller 25 reaches the second guide surface 10, the guide by the first guide surface 9 is lost, so that the shelf member 2 can be rotated around the support shaft 16. Therefore, when the shelf member 2 is rotated against the urging force of the spring 16a, the guide roller 25 rolls along the second guide surface 10, and the pulling side (front end side) is inclined and directed downward. To tilt. Then, the shelf member 2 is tilted to a predetermined position so that the shelf member 2 is prevented from rotating by the lock member 23, so that the cassette 26 is filled with the medicine D.
- the pusher 31 of the medicine push-out member 30 is pushed and moved to the rear end side against the urging force of the constant load panel 32, and the latch lever 33 is locked.
- the claw 37 is locked in the locking hole 29 formed on the back side of the force set 26.
