Definitions
- the present invention provides a method for counting dispensing of tablets when dispensing tablets based on a prescription in hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and the like, a tablet feeder for performing dispensing, and a method for automatically dividing one tablet,
- the present invention relates to a tablet dividing feeder that divides and dispenses, a medicine dispensing (filling) device including the tablet feeder and the tablet dividing feeder, and a container that receives the tablet or divided tablet pieces.
- a tablet feeder having a rotor inside a plurality of stages around the entire circumference is provided in a tablet housing case, and tablets are selectively dispensed from each tablet feeder and packaged based on a prescription (patent) Reference 1 FIG. 1 and FIG. 38 of the present application), there is a case where the tablet feeders are arranged in a shelf shape, and similarly, tablets are selectively dispensed from each tablet feeder based on a prescription (see Patent Document 2). 6. See FIG. 36 of this application).
- the rotary rotor is stored in a container for storing a large number of tablets, and the rotor is formed with storage grooves (recesses) for storing tablets at equal intervals over the entire circumference of the side surface.
- the tablets in the container are stored in the storage groove and moved in the rotation direction.
- the storage groove faces the discharge port, the tablets in the tablet drop from the storage groove to the discharge port one by one. There is a thing (see Patent Document 3).
- the tablet to be taken at one time is a half tablet (half).
- the tablet is sandwiched by a pair of belt conveyors and moved downward, and the tablet is divided into two by a rotary cutter in the middle of the movement (see FIG. 1 of Patent Document 4).
- the tablet is stopped by a shutter, the tablet is divided into two parts by a cutter, the lower half tablet piece is dropped, and the upper half tablet piece is kept on the cutter. There is one that drops the upper half tablet piece (see FIG. 6 of Patent Document 5).
- JP 2003-63503 A JP 2008-162609 A JP 2005-59903 A JP-A-2-29257 JP-A-11-226089 JP 2005-272011 A JP 2007-75178 A
- the former tablet dividing machine divides the tablet in the vertical direction, simultaneously with the division, the tablet is divided into left and right and falls as two tablet pieces. For this reason, when the tablet piece divided into two is divided by hand, or when the tablet piece to be taken is an odd number, one tablet piece becomes unnecessary and is removed by hand.
- the latter tablet dividing machine can drop the upper and lower tablet pieces individually, if the upper half tablet piece is kept on the cutter, it does not fall and can wait until the next dispensing. That is, there is no inconvenience such as removing one tablet piece as in the former tablet dividing machine. However, since the cutter is moved, the operation is complicated.
- the latter tablet dividing machine is provided separately from the tablet feeder when it is incorporated in the tablet packaging machine having the plurality of tablet feeders described above (see FIG. 1 of Patent Document 5), and two or more tablet feeders are removed. (See Patent Document 5 FIG. 7).
- maintained on the cutter is not provided, for example, a tablet feeder is removed for some reasons (usually a tablet cassette is removed from a mounting base. Refer embodiment mentioned later. ) When the tablet feeder is set again, it cannot be confirmed even if the tablet piece is removed.
- the tablet dispensed to the discharge port is detected in the path to the packaging process or the like by a sensor provided in the path, so that the tablet is placed in the storage groove after the dispensing. It was not detected whether or not left.
- whether or not the tablet based on the prescription has been dispensed can be determined by counting the tablet that has passed, so that the actual rotation angle of the rotor (at the outlet) can be determined only by measuring the rotation angle of the rotor based on the rotation angle of the motor. The number of storage grooves that were encountered was not detected.
- the piece when a piece other than a regular tablet, for example, a piece of the tablet passes, the piece may be counted as a tablet, resulting in a problem that the number of tablets based on the dispensing signal is different from the number counted by the sensor.
- the sensor when a tablet is divided, there are many fears that a fragment will be generated, and the defect is likely to occur.
- the tablet powder divided by the tablet dividing machine is attached with cutting powder based on the division, but conventionally, the cutting powder is simply dispensed to the container, so that the cutting powder accumulates in the container. At the time of packaging, etc., the tablet pieces to which the cut powder is attached are packaged or delivered to the patient.
- the present invention divides a tablet without moving a cutter (cutting blade), and an unprecedented dividing method, tablet dividing feeder, and medicine dispensing (filling) capable of individually dispensing the divided tablet pieces.
- 1) Providing a device is a first problem.
- the second is to allow replacement without changing the mounting base of the tablet feeder.
- the third problem is to detect the presence or absence of a tablet such as a tablet piece held on the cutter, and the fourth problem is to smoothly rotate the tablet dispensing rotor (to eliminate backlash).
- the fifth problem is to detect the actual rotation angle (rotor position) of the rotor, the sixth problem is to eliminate the attachment of cutting powder etc. to the tablet, and the dispensed tablet That indeed counting the seventh issue.
- the present invention moves a tablet horizontally or the like, positions a fixed blade in the middle thereof, and divides the tablet with the fixed blade by moving the tablet.
- the lower tablet piece is discharged, while the upper tablet piece is transferred from the fixed blade and held on the support piece continuous to the fixed blade, and the upper tablet piece is It was made to discharge
- the tablet is divided by the movement of the tablet, the tablet piece below the fixed blade is dropped and discharged by its own weight, and the tablet piece above the fixed blade stays on the support piece, and the upper side thereof.
- the tablet pieces are dropped and discharged from the support pieces by their own weight by further movement.
- the movement of the former tablet division and the lower tablet piece dispensing action and the latter upper tablet piece dispensing action can be performed continuously or intermittently.
- continuous movement based on the required number of tablet pieces, for example, when the required tablet piece is an even number, it stops when the upper tablet piece is dispensed from the support piece, while the required tablet piece is In the case of an odd number, the lower tablet piece is dispensed, and the movement stops with the upper tablet piece held on the support piece.
- the tablet division and the lower tablet piece dispensing action and the upper tablet piece dispensing action may be performed by one or more intermittent movements. For example, not only two intermittent movements but also the intermittent movement thereof.
- the action may be performed in the middle of the above, but there is always an intermittent movement stop between the former tablet splitting and lower tablet piece dispensing action and the latter upper tablet piece dispensing action, At the time of the stop, the former action is finished and the upper tablet piece remains on the support piece.
- the movement of the tablet can be performed by a rotating rotor described later or by a moving body that reciprocates.
- the tablet can be divided and the lower tablet piece can be discharged (dispensed) and the upper tablet piece can be discharged in order by continuous (intermittent) rotation of the rotary rotor.
- the tablet is divided and the lower tablet piece is discharged and the upper tablet piece is discharged by moving until the upper tablet piece is discharged from the support piece to one side of the moving body. Back (return) to the opposite side of the one direction, and then the operation of moving again in one direction is repeated.
- the medicine (tablet) is usually spherical or disk-shaped, so the medicine fits perfectly in the storage groove and moves stably. And cut.
- the cross-sectional shape in plan view of the storage groove is preferably matched to the surface shape of the medicine.
- the lower groove bottom surface of the storage groove divided up and down by the peripheral groove for the fixed blade of the rotor is retracted (deepened) with respect to the upper groove bottom surface, and gradually toward the front. It can be set as an inclined surface facing (C cut).
- C cut inclined surface facing
- the lower groove bottom surface end portion of the C-cut storage groove is preferably a depth surface returning to the same level as the upper groove bottom surface.
- the tablet lower half-tablet portion
- the length in the vertical direction of the bottom end portion is appropriately determined by experiments and the like in consideration of the stability of the tablet and the reliable removal action of the burr.
- the shape and thickness thereof may be any, but a thin blade such as a razor is preferable.
- Laser cutting can also be employed. That is, the fixed blade can be a laser blade.
- a piece-like fixed blade such as a razor is bitten into the tablet gradually, assuming that the blade edge gradually protrudes toward the rotor in the tablet moving direction (FIGS. 13A to 13 ( c)). This is because if the cutting edge gradually bites into the tablet and cuts, the division is made smoothly.
- the cutting edge has a concave arc shape (refer to the figure) in the tablet rotation direction.
- Examples of the tablet feeder that divides the tablet include, for example, a moving means for moving the tablet, a fixed blade positioned in the middle of the movement of the tablet, and a support in which the tablet piece on the fixed blade is continuously transferred to the fixed blade.
- the tablet is divided by the fixed blade by the movement of the tablet, and the lower tablet piece is discharged by the division by the fixed blade, while the upper tablet piece is transferred to the support piece. It is possible to adopt a configuration in which the upper tablet piece is discharged from the support piece by further movement.
- the moving means stores a rotating rotor in a container for storing a large number of tablets with the rotation axis of the rotating shaft in the vertical direction, and a circumferential groove into which the fixed blade and the support piece enter is formed all around the rotor side surface.
- the rotor storage portion has a bottomed cylindrical shape, has a tablet discharge port at the bottom, the fixed blade and the support piece are provided on the outer side of the rotor storage portion, and the tablet is placed in the storage groove.
- the rotation of the rotor divides the tablet that moves while being guided by the inner wall surface of the rotor housing portion with the fixed blade, and the lower tablet piece is separated by the fixed blade.
- the upper tablet piece is discharged from the outlet, and the upper tablet piece is transferred to and held on a support piece continuous with the fixed blade from above the fixed blade, and the upper tablet piece is supported by the further rotation of the rotor. It can be adopted which discharges the outlet from.
- the tablet dividing means such as a fixed blade is only attached to the conventional tablet feeder, if the tablet dividing means is accommodated within the size of the conventional tablet feeder (tablet cassette), the conventional mounting table can be used. Can be used. That is, the second problem can be achieved.
- a lower guide is provided to position the tablet at a required position of the fixed blade, for example, the center in the vertical direction, the tablet is divided into a required size.
- the lower guide is a spring piece, the bite allowance of the fixed blade to the tablet can be absorbed by the deflection of the lower guide, and the tablet is pressed against the fixed blade by the spring reaction force, The division is made smooth and the destruction of the tablet is reduced.
- the brush acts as a guide piece and performs the absorption action.
- the absorption action may be performed by either the lower guide or the upper guide piece. That is, in order to perform the absorption action, at least one of both is sufficient.
- the partition member has a brush shape in which elastic bristles are arranged in parallel
- a protrusion is provided on the lower surface of the elastic bristles (brush hairs) after the support piece in the rotation direction of the rotor, and the support is supported by the protrusion. If the upper half-tablet far from the piece is pushed down, the upper half-tablet can be surely paid downward. At this time, it is not necessary to provide the protrusions on all the elastic bristles, and it is optional as long as smooth dispensing of the upper half lock can be ensured, such as providing the elastic bristles after the tip of the fixed blade.
- the structure which provided the protrusion on the elastic bristle lower surface of this partition member can be employ
- the support piece is not separate from the fixed blade, it can be integrated with the fixed blade (also used as a fixed blade, see the embodiment).
- the fixed blade and the partition member can be adjusted by adjusting the vertical mounting position by interposing a spacer between them and the support portion. Even if the division position of the tablet differs due to the change in size, shape, etc., the change can be accommodated by the adjustment.
- a tablet smashing plate (separate half tablet) is interposed between the partition member composed of the brush or the like and the spacer or between one or both of the fixed blade and the spacer. If the tip of the fixed blade and / or the partition member protrudes downward or forward, the upper plate knocks down the upper half-tablet separated from the tip of the fixed blade (support piece). (Tap it down) to make sure it drops into the outlet. In addition, the separating piece of the lower plate surely cuts the upper and lower half-tablets cut by the fixed blade, and reliably drops the lower half-tablet below the storage groove (discharge port). This action is effective in the case of a sticky drug (tablet) such as a sugar-coated tablet.
- the sugar-coated tablet has a coating material that remains in a fibrous form, and the fibrous substance is easily caught on the inner surface edge of the storage groove, thereby easily preventing the tablet from falling.
- the separation piece is also directed downward, it can be knocked down.
- the positions of the knock-off piece and the separation piece are appropriately set by experiments or the like as long as the above-described effects can be exhibited. Incidentally, it is needless to say that one, two, or three of the above-mentioned plates, elastic bristle ridges, and storage groove C-cuts can be selectively employed.
- a tablet presence / absence sensor for detecting the presence or absence of the upper tablet piece on the support piece after the tablet division. It is assumed that an odd number of tablet pieces are dispensed and the tablet piece remains on the support piece.
- the sensor detects that the tablet feeder has been removed when the tablet feeder is reset. At the time of dispensing, it can be dispensed assuming that there is no tablet piece. That is, no payout is performed on the assumption that there is an upper tablet piece. With this configuration, the third problem can be achieved.
- the tablet presence / absence sensor is composed of, for example, an actuator (arm) provided on a mounting block of the fixed blade to the rotor storage portion and a sensor for detecting the swing of the actuator, and the actuator has a swing tip.
- the point slider is in the movement path of the tablet stored in the storage groove of the rotor, and as the tablet moves, it touches the slider and acts on the actuator.
- a configuration in which the sensor detects the presence or absence of a tablet can be employed.
- the tablet presence / absence sensor having these configurations is a conventional tablet feeder that dispenses a tablet by rotating the rotor without being divided, for example, a rotor that rotates into a container that stores a large number of tablets, and a rotation axis of the rotor is rotated vertically. And a rotor storage groove in the rotor axial direction for storing tablets at regular intervals over the entire circumference of the side surface of the rotor.
- the rotor storage portion of the container has a tablet discharge port, and tablets are stored in the storage groove. It can also be used in a tablet feeder A that sequentially discharges tablets in a storage groove that moves while being guided by the inner wall surface of the rotor storage portion by rotation of the rotor in a stored state.
- a motor is provided in the container mounting table, a pinion that is rotated by the motor is provided at a corner of the mounting surface of the container of the mounting table, and a rotating shaft of the rotor projects from the bottom surface of the container.
- a large gear that meshes with the pinion is provided at the protruding end of the rotor, and when the container is mounted on the mounting base, the rotation of the rotor can be made to rotate many Since the rotation is performed by rotation (rotation with a large number of rotations), the influence of backlash between the pinion and the large gear becomes small. For this reason, the rotation of the rotor is accurate and smooth.
- the large gear can be provided on the rotor rotation shaft by providing the pinion at the corner of the mounting surface of the mounting table container.
- the rotating shaft is located at the center, and therefore it is usually difficult to attach the large gear located near the center.
- the rotating shaft of the rotor is rotatably supported by a bearing at the bottom of the container, and if the bearing supports the rotating shaft with a pair of upper and lower thrust bearings, the rotating shaft does not shake. Since the rotor rotates, the rotor rotates smoothly and accurately. Since the meshing of the pinion and the large gear and the support of the rotating shaft by the upper and lower thrust bearings can smoothly rotate the rotor, the fourth problem is achieved individually. Both of these configurations can be used together. Also, as described above, the tablet feeder A is not limited to the tablet dividing feeder, and the tablet feeder A that sequentially dispenses the tablets in the storage groove by rotating the rotor without dividing. Can also be adopted.
- the disk is fixed to the rotating shaft integrally with the same axis, and the same number of irregularities as the storage grooves of the rotor are formed at equal intervals around the entire circumference of the disk. If the position of the storage groove) is detected, the actual rotational position of the rotor can be detected. For this reason, although the rotation command of the rotor by the motor was issued, the detection when the rotor is not rotating can be performed. In particular, when the tablet is divided, the dispensing of both divided tablet pieces can be reliably detected based on the rotation of the rotor. The unevenness can be formed on the side surface, upper surface or lower surface of the disk.
- the unevenness of the disk and the storage groove are made to correspond, it is possible to reliably detect the dispensing time of the lower tablet piece and the dispensing time of the upper tablet piece that accompanies the division of the tablet. Further, if the unevenness detection signal of the disk is compared with the detection signal of the tablet presence / absence sensor, the relationship between the dispensing action and the tablet piece facing the discharge port can be determined. For example, when the tablet piece is not dispensed due to the detection of the unevenness, but there is no tablet piece facing the discharge port for some reason, it can be determined that the tablet piece has been removed (details will be described later). See embodiment).
- This unevenness detection configuration can achieve the fifth problem, and is not limited to the tablet dividing feeder, as in the above, but is a tablet feeder that sequentially dispenses tablets in the storage groove by rotating the rotor without dividing. It can also be employed for A and the like.
- the tablet pieces discharged from the discharge port are temporarily stocked in a container before being sent to the packaging process, or are stored in a container in order to prescribe the tablet pieces by hand
- the container is provided with a perforated plate having a size that does not allow the tablet piece to pass through in a detachable manner
- the cut powder is removed by dropping with the perforated plate, and the tablet piece on the perforated plate is removed. Is not attached with cutting powder.
- the configuration of the container can achieve the sixth problem, and similarly to the above, the tablet is not limited to the tablet dividing feeder, and the tablet in which the tablets in the storage groove are sequentially discharged by the rotation of the rotor without being divided. It can also be used for feeder A or the like. At this time, powder due to friction between the tablets is removed.
- the counting if the type of the passing material can be discriminated by the shape or size of the tablet or the like passing through the dispensing passage, only the tablet (piece) can be counted regardless of the passing timing.
- a discriminable sensor when a passing object other than a tablet such as a fragment is recognized, the recognition is not included in the count, so that other than the tablet is not counted.
- the seventh problem can be achieved.
- tablets can be confirmed regardless of the timing of passage, so counting can be performed regardless of the delivery timing of the rotor, etc., and reliable even when high-speed delivery (rotor rotation of the rotor) is performed. There is an advantage that can be counted.
- the tablet is moved and divided with a fixed blade in the middle, and the divided tablet pieces can be dispensed with a time difference. Therefore, the tablet is divided with a new configuration different from the conventional one. This is useful, such as enabling automatic dispensing while properly counting tablet pieces.
- the divided tablet pieces can be individually dispensed, and the tablet feeder can be replaced with the tablet division feeder without changing the mounting table of the conventional tablet feeder. Can be. Furthermore, since the presence or absence of the tablet piece kept on the cutter can be detected, the number of dispensed tablet pieces is less likely to be mistaken.

By this detection, the rotation angle (position) of the rotor 24 is detected, and the dispensing timing of the lower tablet piece T1 and the dispensing timing of the upper tablet piece T2 associated with the division of the tablet T are reliably detected.
- the presence or absence of the tablet piece T2 in the pocket portion 25 facing the discharge port 27 is determined by comparing this detection with the detection signal of the tablet presence / absence sensor 40. That is, if the microswitch detects the convex portion 65b, and the slider 42 of the sensor 40 maintains the facing of the magnetic sensor 16 due to the presence of the tablet piece T2 (at this time, FIG. 13C). In this state, the tablet piece T2 in the pocket portion 25 is in an action state with the arm 41.) It is determined that “the tablet T2 remains”, and the slider 42 enters the pocket portion 25.

- the magnet 43 is greatly separated from the magnetic sensor 16.
- the slider 42 is positioned in the tablet movement path c, so the tablet T (half tablet T2) in the pocket portion 25 is As it moves, it always comes into contact with and pushes the slider 42, and the slider 42 swings (see FIGS. 17B to 17C), and the magnet 43 faces the magnetic sensor 16 by the swing.
- the presence or absence of the tablet T (T2) is reliably detected (see FIG. 17C).
- the slider 42 always oscillates depending on the presence or absence of the tablet T (T2), and the presence or absence of the oscillation is surely detected by the oscillation, so that the signal of the microswitch via the disk 63 and the actuator 15 is detected. Verification is not necessary. For this reason, the disk 63 and the microswitch (actuator 15) are omitted (see FIG. 20).
- an attachment piece 45 is provided in the cassette container 21 behind the dividing mechanism 30, and an actuator (arm) 41 is provided on the attachment piece 45.

- the tablet T positioned in the vertical direction by the lower guide 34 in the pocket portion 25 is positioned at the center in the vertical direction so that the tablet T is exactly half (half tablets T1, T2), and a partition member 32 is located between the upper and lower tablets T, T in the pocket portion 25 so as to separate the two T, T. Therefore, the thickness and the number of the spacers 35 and 36 are appropriately selected according to the size (height) of the tablet T, and the fixed blade 33 and the partition member 32 are set to such positions.
- the tablets (pieces) T1 and T2 discharged (discharged) from the tablet cassette 20 are detected by the sensor 18 when passing through the second passage 14 as described above, and Although the number of payouts is calculated, a tablet piece t based on cutting of the tablet T or the like may fall into the second passage 14 separately from the tablets T1 and T2. For this reason, since the dispensing of the tablets is performed at a constant time interval (timing) (since the rotor 24 rotates at a certain timing), in the case of dispensing that is not at that timing, for example, when the piece t falls, the counter It is possible not to count (ommit) by controlling. The accuracy of the counting with the payout timing can be increased by collating with the presence / absence detection signal by the tablet presence / absence sensor 40 or the like.
- the tablet T that fits in or close to the pocket portion 25 is surely divided.
- the division failure or the biting into the fixed blade 33 occurs.
- the half tablet T2 after the division is placed on the slider 42 and does not fall at a required timing, but falls late, etc.
- the detection accuracy of the tablet presence / absence sensor 40 also decreases. For this reason, the accuracy reduction can be compensated by performing the counting in consideration of the payout timing.
- the presence / absence determination of the tablets T and T2 in the pocket portion 25 may be omitted by omitting the tablet presence / absence sensor 40 and the like, and the presence / absence of the tablet in the pocket portion 25 may be determined at the dispensing timing. For example, when the tablet feeder is removed for some reason as described above and the tablet feeder is set again, when the tablet piece is removed, there is no half tablet T2 in the pocket portion 25, so the rotor 24 performs the dispensing operation. Even if it is not paid out, it will be paid out by the next paying-out operation, and since the payout of the half tablet T2 is not made within a certain timing, the normal payout has not been made. It can be confirmed that the payout has been performed in the pocket portion 25 without the half-lock T2.
- timings (thresholds) corresponding to various tablets T can be set.
- various known modes can be adopted. For example, a dip switch method can be adopted. An embodiment employing the dip switch method is shown in FIGS.

- This dip switch can be set in eight ways by appropriately setting each contact 48b, 48c, 48d of the switch 48 to ON / OFF, and this setting is the size of the tablet T stored in the cassette.
- a timing (threshold value) according to the setting (size etc. of the tablet T) is transmitted (set) to the rotation control unit of the rotor 24 (the rotation control unit is the size of the tablet T in the cassette). Read etc.)
- each contact 48b, 48c, 48d of the switch 48 is appropriately set to ON / OFF corresponding to the tablet T stored in the cassette 20, and the set timing (threshold) is set in the rotation control unit of the rotor 24.
- the rotor 24 rotates and the tablets T1 and T2 are dispensed.
- the tablets T1 and T2 to be dispensed at the timing set based on the size of the tablet T and the like are counted, and for example, dispensing (falling) of the piece t is not counted (omitted).
- the number of tablet T sizes and the like (timing) that can be set can be arbitrarily set.
- the stored tablets T of the cassette 20 are the same (when the setting of the switch 48 is the same)
- the previous tablet count and tablet presence records are reset. If the setting of the switch 48 is different, these records are reset when the cassette 20 is reset.
- this counting method has the advantage of being able to count regardless of the delivery timing of the rotor 24 and the like and reliably counting even if high-speed delivery (rotation of the rotor at high speed) is performed.
- Such a sensor is of a mode in which the detection surface indicated by reference numeral 19 in FIG. 33 is wide or the like. Even if the tablet (T, T1, T2) falls in the passage 14 in any manner (FIG. 33 (a)), and the size and shape of the tablet T, T1, T2, for example, the long diameter, the short diameter, the half, the thickness, etc. of the tablet T are grasped to determine whether the tablet is a half tablet. For example, when any one of them, such as thickness, is smaller than the values of tablets (pieces) T, T1, and T2, it is determined as a piece t.
- the determination threshold can be set by appropriately turning on / off the contacts 48b, 48c, 48d, etc. of the switch 48 of the DIP switch. For this reason, also in this counting method, the above-described switch 48 can distinguish eight types of tablets (T, T1, T2) having different sizes and shapes.
- the dispensing counting means based on the dispensing timing of the tablets and the dispensing counting means based on the sensor 19 are not limited to the above-described embodiments, but rotate to various conventional tablet dispensing apparatuses, for example, containers that store a large number of tablets.
- the rotor is stored with its rotational axis up and down, and a storage groove in the rotor axial direction for storing tablets at equal intervals is formed around the entire side surface of the rotor.
- the rotor storage portion of the container has a tablet discharge port.
- the tablet can be used for a tablet feeder that sequentially discharges the tablets in the storage groove that is moved while being guided by the inner wall surface of the rotor storage portion by the rotation of the rotor while the tablets are stored in the storage groove.
- a rotary switch system may be used instead of the dip switch system.
- the tablet presence / absence switch 40 is omitted, and the dispensing of the tablets (half tablets) T, T1, T2 is counted only by the detection of the dispensing counting means by the dispensing timing of the tablets and the dispensing counting means by the sensor 19. You can also.

- the positions of the knock-off piece 37 'and the separation piece 38' are arbitrary as long as they can perform their functions, but by actually providing them at various positions, the protruding lengths of the pieces 37 ', 38' can be obtained. In consideration of such factors, the position is set at a position where these actions can be appropriately performed. Further, the plates 37 and 38 having the pieces 37 ′ and 38 ′ are not limited to the space between the upper flat plate piece 31a of the block 31 and the brush 32 or between the fixed blade 33 and the spacer 35, but are shown by, for example, the chain lines shown in the figure.
- the tablet knocking plate 37 is omitted. If the plate 37 is omitted, when the rotor 24 is reversed for some reason, the knocking piece 37 ′ protrudes from between the partition members (brushes) 32 (see FIG. 23B). This eliminates the possibility of damaging the brush teeth (hairs) 32a.

Abstract
Description
この錠剤分割機として、対のベルトコンベアによって錠剤を挟んで下側に移動させるとともに、その移動途中で回転カッターによって錠剤を2分割したり(特許文献4第1図参照)、チューブ内に錠剤を移動させ、その途中において、シャッターにより錠剤を止め、カッターによりその錠剤を2分割して、下半分の錠剤片を落下させるとともに、上半分の錠剤片はカッター上に留め置き、カッターの退去によって、その上半分の錠剤片を落下させたりするものがある(特許文献5第6図参照)。
一方、後者の錠剤分割機は、上下の錠剤片を個別に落下し得るため、カッターの上に上半分の錠剤片を留め置けば、落下することがなく、次の払出まで待つことができる。すなわち、前者の錠剤分割機のような一錠剤片を取り除く等の不都合はない。
しかし、カッターを動かすため、その動作が煩雑となっている。
このように、従来の錠剤フィーダとその装着台等を変えることなく交換できないと、その分、薬剤払出装置の大型化を招くと共に製造コストが高くなる。
このようにすれば、錠剤の移動によって、錠剤は分割されて、固定刃より下側の錠剤片は自重により落下して払い出され、固定刃より上側の錠剤片は支持片上に留まり、その上側錠剤片は、さらなる移動によって支持片から自重により落下して払い出される。
間欠移動させる場合は、錠剤の分割及び下側錠剤片の払出し作用と上側錠剤片の払出し作用は、一以上の間欠移動によって行われれば良く、例えば、二つの間欠移動のみならず、その間欠移動の途中でその作用は行われても良いが、前者の錠剤の分割及び下側錠剤片の払出し作用と後者の上側錠剤片の払出し作用の間には、必ず間欠移動の停止時があって、その停止時に、前者の作用が終了し、上側錠剤片は支持片に留まっているようにする。
錠剤切断後時のバリが固定刃用周溝の端に食い込み、下側半錠が落下しないという不都合が生じる恐れがあるが、そのCカットによってその後退部分にそのバリが逃げて食い込みにくくなるため、その不都合がなくなる。
このとき、Cカットした収納溝の下側溝底面端部は上側溝底面と同一レベルに戻った深さ面にすると良い。その戻った底面に錠剤(下側半錠部分)が案内されるため、収納溝内の錠剤が安定して円滑な切断作用を行い得るからである。その底面端部の上下方向長さは、その錠剤の安定性と前記バリの確実な除去作用が行われる点を考慮して実験などによって適宜に決定する。
また、剃刀等の片状固定刃は、その刃先が錠剤移動方向に向かって徐々にロータ側に突出するものとして、徐々に錠剤に食い込むようにようにすると良い(図13(a)~同(c)参照)。錠剤に刃先が徐々に食い込んで切断すれば、その分割が円滑になされるからである。このとき、刃先は錠剤回転方向に凹円弧状(同図参照)とすることが好ましい。
このブラシは、固定刃による錠剤の分割時、その錠剤を下方に押すバネ性を有するため、錠剤への固定刃の食い込み代をその撓みでもって吸収する作用も行う。したがって、下ガイドを上記吸収作用をしない物とした場合は、このブラシがガイド片となってその吸収作用を行うこととなる。このことから、その吸収作用は、下ガイドと上ガイド片のどちらか一方で行えばよいこととなる。すなわち、その吸収作用を行うためには、両者の少なくとも一方があればよい。
このとき、その突条は全ての弾性剛毛に設ける必要はなく、固定刃の先端以降においての弾性剛毛に設ける等、上記上側半錠の円滑な払出しを担保できる限りにおいて任意である。
なお、この仕切部材の弾性剛毛下面に突条を設けた構成は、分割錠剤フィーダに限らず、1錠毎に払出す錠剤フィーダにおいても採用できる。
また、上記固定刃と仕切部材(錠剤仕切用ブラシ)は、それらの支持部との間にスペーサを介在することによって、その上下方向の取付位置を調整できるようにすれば、その調整によって、錠剤の大きさ・形状等の変更によって、錠剤の分割位置が異なることとなっても、その調整によってその変更に対応することができる。
因みに、上記各プレート、弾性剛毛の突条、収納溝のCカットはその一つ、その2つ、又はその3つを適宜に選択的に採用できることは勿論である。
この構成によって、上記第3の課題を達成することができる。
このとき、上記ロータの側面全周に、上記摺動子が入り込む周溝を形成し、その周溝に入り込んだ摺動子は錠剤の移動経路にあるようにすれば、収納溝内の錠剤(半錠)がその移動につれて摺動子に必ず接して押すため、検出精度が向上する。この場合、上記アクチュエータへの作用は押して揺動させることとなる。
このピニオンと大歯車の噛み合い、及び上下対のスラストベアリングによる回転軸の支持は、ロータの回転を円滑に行い得ることから、個々に、上記第4の課題を達成するものとなる。なお、この両構成は併用することができ、また、上記と同様に、錠剤分割フィーダに限らず、従来の分割することなくロータの回転でもって収納溝内の錠剤を順次払い出す錠剤フィーダAにも採用することができる。
この凹凸検出の構成は、上記第5の課題を達成でき、上記と同様に、錠剤分割フィーダに限らず、従来の分割することなくロータの回転でもって収納溝内の錠剤を順次払い出す錠剤フィーダA等にも採用することができる。
すなわち、この容器の構成は、上記第6の課題を達成でき、上記と同様に、錠剤分割フィーダに限らず、従来の分割することなくロータの回転でもって収納溝内の錠剤を順次払い出す錠剤フィーダA等にも採用することができる。このときは、錠剤同士の擦れ合いによる粉を除去するものとなる。
これらの払出し計数の構成は、上記と同様に、錠剤分割フィーダに限らず、従来の分割することなくロータの回転でもって収納溝内の錠剤を順次払い出す錠剤フィーダAのみならず、種々の手段によって錠剤を払出す錠剤フィーダにも採用することができる。
また、上記のように、その分割した錠剤片を個別に払出し得るものとすることもできるとともに、従来の錠剤フィーダの装着台等を変えることなく、その錠剤フィーダをこの錠剤分割フィーダに交換できるようにし得る。
さらに、カッターの上に留め置いた錠剤片の有無を検出し得るので、分割した錠剤片の払出し数を間違えることも少ない。
また、錠剤払出しロータの回転を円滑に行うことができ、さらに、そのロータの実際の回転角度(ロータの位置)を検出できるので、ロータの位置から分割した錠剤片の有無を認識することができ、仮に、上側錠剤片が残ったままで、錠剤フィーダを抜き差ししても、払出し計数に誤りが発生しない。
さらに、切断粉等の錠剤又は錠剤片への付着を極力なくすことができる。
また、払出し錠剤数を正確に計数できる。
例えば、これらの薬剤払出(充填)装置は、錠剤フィーダA収納部、手撒き錠剤収納部B、散薬分配用V枡部C、操作部D及び薬剤包装部(分包工程)E、容器供給ユニットQ、取出ユニットK等からなる(特許文献6 図2、特許文献1図1等参照)。
また、装着台11には、図示しない制御装置からの制御信号に基づいて駆動制御されるモータ(図示せず)が収容されている。モータの回転軸は、装着台11の錠剤カセット20取付面11aの隅に突出してピニオン13が固着されている。
さらに、装着台11には錠剤カセット20の排出口27に連通(連続)する下側に傾斜した第2通路14が形成され、この第2通路14は、その両側面に通過する錠剤(片)T(T1、T2)を検出するためのセンサ18が設けられて、薬剤分包機の上記ホッパーHに通じている(詳細は、特許文献3段落0047、図1参照)。
さらに、第2通路14の前壁両側には錠剤カセット20下面の対の爪部材29(図4、図5参照)が係止する係止孔(爪)17が設けられており、錠剤カセット20を装着台11にセットすると、爪29’’がその係止孔17に嵌って、両者11、20が一体となる。その爪部材29の錠剤カセット20側面に突出する突起(ボタン)29’を押せば、その爪29’’が係止孔17から出て(両者の係止が外れて)、装着台11から錠剤カセット20を取り外すことが出来る。
なお、第2通路14の途中には、磁気センサ(図示していないが、図33の態様においては、粉除去板81’の裏側等に設ける)を設けて、万一、後述の固定刃33が破損し、その破片が薬剤と一緒に払出された場合にも、その通過する金属破片を検知できるようになっている。
容器21の内部には多数の錠剤Tが収容される。矩形部21aの上面開口は蓋体23によって開閉可能となっている。
因みに、ロータ24を反時計回りに回転させて錠剤Tを分割する態様であれば、ピニオン13は右端に設け、カセット20を装着する方向が上記と異なれば、そのピニオン13の位置は上記と逆の端にする等と、その装着方向に上記大歯車61の力方向がなるように、ピニオン13の位置を適宜に決定することは勿論である。また、上記錠剤T、T1、T2がポケット部25等の何処かに詰まった場合、モータの負荷増大検知でもって、ロータ24を逆転させてその詰まりを解消し得るようにしても良いことは勿論である。
また、固定刃33はその前後の位置(ロータ24に向かう突出量)を調整できるようになっており、例えば、糖衣錠のように、コーティングされた薬剤Tでは、完全に、切り抜くことができるように、刃先33aは錠剤Tを貫通する長さ(突出量)とされ、粉体を固めたような錠剤であれば、図13(c)に示すように、錠剤Tを貫通しない長さであっても、十分に分割できる。このため、錠剤Tの性状に応じてその刃先33aの高さは適宜に設定する。
このロータ24の回転に伴い、錠剤Tは2分割され、下側の錠剤片T1はその2分割とともに排出口27に落下し(同図(c)、上側の錠剤片T2は、さらなるロータ24の回転によって支持片を兼ねる固定刃33先端部から排出口27に落下する(同図(d))。
この回転軸28の軸受50は上記支持部22に設けられており、同図に示すように、支持部22にビス止めされる軸受台51と、その上下のスラストベアリング52a、52aと、ベアリング押さえ53とからなる。この上下のスラストベアリング52a、52aによる支持によって回転軸28は振れることなく円滑かつ正確に回転する。
このため、装着台11に錠剤カセット20を取付けると、上記マイクロスイッチのアクチュエータ15が円盤63の下面凹凸に当接し、ロータ24(円盤63)の回転に伴い、その凹凸に倣ってアクチュエータ15も起伏して、マイクロスイッチが凹部65a、凸部65bを検出する。この検出によって、ロータ24の回転角度(位置)が検出されて、錠剤Tの分割に伴う、下側錠剤片T1の払出し時期、上側錠剤片T2の払出し時期を確実に検出する。
このため、この照合による錠剤片T2の有無の判別により、何らかの事情によって、この錠剤カセット20を取り外し、再度、その錠剤カセット20をセットした際、その錠剤片T2が取り除かれているか否かを瞬時に検出できる。すなわち、錠剤カセット20の取外し時に、上側錠剤片T2が残っており、そのカセット20の搬送中の落下等の何らかの理由によって、次の装着(セット)時に、錠剤片T2が無くなっていても、その状況を検出でき、再開後の払い出しミスの発生が生じない。ポケット部25と凹部65aを対応するようにしても良い。この場合は、上記の照合は、マイクロスイッチが凹部65aを検出している場合となる。
そのロータ24の回転は、払出す錠剤片T1、T2の数に応じた回転角度、例えば、ロータ周囲8個の収納溝25があることから、ロータ24が一回転すると、錠剤片(半錠)T1、T2は16個(錠)払出されるため、14半錠であれば、360度/14/16=315度回る。このとき、この実施形態はその払出し数に応じた回転角度までの連続回転するが、半錠の払出し毎の22.5度の間欠回転とすることもできる。
このため、摺動子42の周溝24c内奥壁の摺動時、磁石43は磁気センサ16から離れており(図17(a)参照)、ポケット部25内に錠剤(半錠)T(T2)が無くその内部まで入り込むと、図17(d)で示すように、部材41aがロータ24側に揺動して磁石43が磁気センサ16から大きく離れる。
一方、ポケット部25に錠剤(半錠)T(T2)があれば、摺動子42は、上記錠剤の移動経路cに位置するため、ポケット部25内の錠剤T(半錠T2)はその移動につれて摺動子42に必ず接して押すこととなって摺動子42は揺動し(図17(b)から(c)参照)、その揺動によって磁石43が磁気センサ16に対向してその錠剤T(T2)の有無を確実に検出する(図17(c)参照)。
このように、摺動子42は錠剤T(T2)の有無によって必ず揺動し、その揺動によってその有無を確実に検出するため、上記円盤63とアクチュエータ15を介したマイクロスイッチの信号との照合は不要となる。このため、その円盤63とマイクロスイッチ(アクチュエータ15)は省略する(図20参照)。
アクチュエータ41は、摺動子42の後端から立ち上がったのち水平片となって軸41cが嵌る軸部を有し、その軸部に連続する立片41eに、取付片45の立片46の突起47に嵌めたコイルばね44’のコイル素線が突き抜けており、そのコイルばね44’を回転して突き抜け量(長さ)を調節することによって摺動子42の上記平板片31bの開口31b’からの突出量が調整される(周溝24cへの挿入量が調整される)。
因みに、上記円盤63を設けて、この検出信号とその円盤63とマイクロスイッチによる検出信号を照合すれば、錠剤片T2の有無の判別が確実となる。
このスペーサ35、36による固定刃33と仕切部材32の位置調整は、錠剤分割機構30(ブロック31)をカセット20から取り外して行うこととなる。このため、下ガイド34が邪魔になる場合は、その下ガイド34はブロック31ではなく、カセット20の本体側に固定すると良い(図22(b)参照)。
このスペーサ35、36の介在は図1等で示した上記各実施形態においても採用し得ることは勿論である。
このため、錠剤の払出しは一定時間間隔(タイミング)で行われるため(ロータ24は一定のタイミングで回転するため)、そのタイミングではない払出しの場合、例えば、欠片tが落下した場合は、計数器の制御によって計数しないように(オミット)することができる。この払出しタイミングを加味した計数は、上記の錠剤有無センサ40等によるその有無検出信号との照合によってその精度を上げることができる。
また、その錠剤有無センサ40等を省略してそのポケット部25内の錠剤T、T2の有無判別を省略し、その払出しタイミングでもってポケット部25内の錠剤の有無を判別しても良い。例えば、上述の何らかの事情によって、錠剤フィーダを取り外し、再度、その錠剤フィーダをセットした際、その錠剤片を取り除いた場合は、ポケット部25に半錠T2がないため、ロータ24がその払出し動作をしても払出されず、つぎの払出し動作によって払出されることとなって、その半錠T2の払出しが一定のタイミング内になされていないため、正常な払出しがなされていないこととなって、その半錠T2のないポケット部25での払出しが行われたことの確認ができることとなる。
このディップスイッチは、スイッチ48の各接点48b、48c、48dを適宜にON・OFFに設定することによって、8通りの設定を行うことができ、この設定は、カセットに収納する錠剤Tの大きさ・形状等によって設定し、その設定(錠剤Tの大きさ等)に応じたタイミング(閾値)がロータ24の回転制御部に伝達(設定)される(回転制御部がカセット内の錠剤Tの大きさ等を読み取る)。
上記接点46、47の数を適宜に設定することによって設定し得る錠剤Tの大きさ等(タイミング)の数も任意に設定できる。
因みに、通常、カセット20の収納錠剤Tが同じの場合は(スイッチ48の設定が同一の場合)、カセット20を外して再セットしても、今までの錠剤計数や錠剤有無の記録はリセットされず、スイッチ48の設定が異なれば、カセット20の再セット時にはそれらの記録はリセットされる。
このため、この計数方式(装置)であると、ロータ24等の払出しタイミングに関係することなく計数でき、高速払出し(ロータの高速回転)を行っても確実に計数できる利点がある。
この実施形態は、図22(a)に示すようにスペーサ35、36を介在したものであって、同図(b)に示すように、ガイド34はカセット本体側に設けている。
照)。
また、上側半錠T2は固定刃33の右端を越えると、錠剤叩き落としプレート37の叩き落とし片37’に徐々に当接して下方に押されて(叩き落とされて)、排出口27に確実に落下する(図23(b)の2点鎖線参照)。
錠剤T切断時、その切断によるバリが固定刃用周溝24bの端(図c部分)に食い込み(嵌り)、下側半錠T1が落下しないという不都合が生じる恐れがあるが、このCカットによってその後退部分25b’にそのバリが逃げて食い込み難くなるため、その不都合がなくなる。すなわち、そのCカットの側面bにバリが当接して食い込み難くなる。
このとき、同図に示すように、Cカットしたポケット部25の下側溝底面25bの下端部dは上側溝底面25aと同一レベルに戻った深さにすると良い。その戻った底面dに錠剤Tが案内されるため、ポケット部25内の錠剤Tが安定して円滑な切断作用を行い得るからである。その底面dの長さ(上下方向)は、その錠剤Tの安定性と上記バリの確実な除去作用が行われる点を考慮して実験などによって適宜に決定する。
このため、固定刃33による錠剤Tの分割時、上側半錠T2は、その突条32cの存在によって仕切部材32(ブラシ毛32a)を押し上げた状態で移動し、固定刃33の先端(右端)から離れる状態(図12(d))において、そのブラシ毛32aの下方への付勢力でもって押し下げられて円滑に払い出される。このため、上側の錠剤叩き落としプレート37を省略できることとなる。
その突条32cは全てのブラシ毛32aに設ける必要はなく、好ましくは、図示のように、半錠T2が固定刃33から離れる固定刃33の先端以降(図23において右方向)のブラシ毛32aに設ける等、上記上側半錠T2の円滑な払出しを担保できる限りにおいて任意である。また、突条32cの長さ及び高さも錠剤(半錠)T2に当接する限りにおいて任意である。
因みに、錠剤叩き落としプレート37、分離プレート38、ブラシ毛32aの突条32c、ポケット部25のCカットはその一つ、その2つ、又はその3つを適宜に選択的に採用できることは勿論である。
また、モータベース側の排出経路(第2通路14等)の底面を簀の子状(図31の多孔板81参照)にして、切断粉を払出経路中において除去するようにすることもできる。このとき、その排出経路の下側にはその切断粉の受け容器を設置すると良く、その受け容器の装着の有無を検出するセンサを設けて、未装着の場合はそのセンサからの信号でもってその未装着の旨を通知するようにすることもできる。この通知は、後記図29、図30、図31に示す容器80の装着の有無を検出し、その有無を通知するようにすることもできる。
その払出しされた錠剤片T1、T2は、通路72から、図31に示す容器80に受け取られる。この容器80は、中程に、錠剤片T1、T2を通さない大きさの多孔82を有する箱状多孔板(網)81を着脱自在に設けたものである。その多孔板81でもって切断粉(欠片t)が落下によって除去され、多孔板81上の錠剤片T1、T2は切断粉の付着していないものとなる。この多孔板81に代えて、錠剤片T1、T2を通さない幅(大きさ)のスリットを有する粉除去板(図33(a)の符号:81’参照)とすることができる。
また、多孔板81、粉除去板81’、カバー84を外したとき、その外したことを検出する、又はそれらがセットされていることを検出するセンサを設ければ、そのセンサの信号によって、それらが外れている限り、錠剤の払出しを行えない等の機能を付加し得る。このようにすれば、清掃等によってそれらを外した後、再セットし忘れて、不要な欠片(切断粉)tを装置周りに漏らす等の不都合をなくすことができる。
なお、この実施形態や図29、図30で示す実施形態において、その錠剤フィーダA1に図32、図33に示す粉(欠片t)除去機構を設ければ、容器80にはその多孔板81等から成る粉除去機能を省略したものを使用し得る。
また、収納溝(ポケット部)25に一列ずつ入る錠剤Tの数は、2錠に限らず、1錠であっても、3錠以上でも良い。ロータ24の回転方向は水平に限らず、この発明の作用を奏す限りにおいて、傾いていても良い。
さらに、上記錠剤分割機構30を、従来の錠剤フィーダAの錠剤カセットに装備すれば、この発明に係る錠剤分割フィーダとなることは勿論である。すなわち、この実施形態以外の従来の錠剤カセットに錠剤分割機構30を装備して錠剤分割フィーダとし得る。
以上から理解できるように、この発明の範囲は、特許請求の範囲によって示され、特許請求の範囲と均等の意味および範囲内でのすべての変更が含まれることが意図されることは勿論である。
