Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this case, the same components in the accompanying drawings are to be noted that the same reference numerals as possible. In addition, detailed descriptions of well-known functions and configurations that may blur the gist of the present invention will be omitted. For the same reason, in the accompanying drawings, some components are exaggerated, omitted or schematically illustrated.

Referring to Figure 1, the operation of the drug input, drug test, drug disposal and drug packaging made in the drug extraction device (ADM) according to the present invention will be described.

The drug extracting device ADM has a plurality of partition spaces C1, C2, C3, and C4 divided by the drug rotating unit 100. The drug rotating unit 100 is connected to the rotating member 110 and the rotating member 110 by a driving unit to form a partition space (C1, C2, C3, C4) and a plurality of partition members 120 for moving the injected medicine Is made of. As shown, there are four compartments C1, C2, C3, and C4, but this is for convenience of description and the number of compartments may be appropriately modified.

The medicine injected into the compartment space is moved to the next compartment by the rotation of the drug rotating unit 100, the operation set in each compartment section is performed.

The operation set by each section is divided into four categories, the first operation in the compartment space (C1), the second operation in the compartment space (C2), the third operation in the compartment space (C3), and the compartment space (C4) The fourth operation is performed.

Firstly, the compartment space C1 is a compartment into which the first drug is injected. To this end, the first medicine inlet is arranged in the compartment space C1. The partition space C1 is a space into which the first medicine collected from the first drug dispensing device is put according to a prescription. For example, the first drug dispensing device may be a tray.

According to FIG. 1, the compartment space C1 is illustrated as one compartment, but for convenience of description, the compartment space C1 may be configured as a plurality of compartment spaces according to the embodiment. Referring to FIG. 6, four compartments 130A1, 130A2, 130A3, and 130A4 denoted by 130A correspond to the compartment space C1 in which the first operation is performed.

When the first drug is added to the compartment C1, the controller rotates the drug rotating unit 100 by one compartment so that the first drug is injected into the compartment C2. In the present invention, such rotation is referred to as forward rotation.

The controller performs overall control regarding the compartment spaces C1, C2, C3, and C4.

Secondly, the compartment space C2 is a compartment into which the second drug is injected. For this purpose, the second medicine inlet is arranged in the compartment space C2. The second medicine is a space into which the medicine collected from the second medicine dispensing device is put according to a prescription. For example, the second drug dispensing device may be a medicine cassette.

When the second drug is injected, the first drug and the second drug are positioned in the compartment space C2. That is, the compartment space C2 is a compartment in which one part of medicines by prescription is accommodated.

In the present invention, the second medicament is contained in the medicament cassette, and means a medicament to be added according to the cassette control of the controller, and the first medicament has a form or component that is difficult to be accommodated in the medicament cassette, and thus the medicament to be added from the tray. it means.

Therefore, the drug extraction device (ADM) according to the present invention includes an inlet for injecting the first agent and an inlet for injecting the second agent, that is, two drug inlets.

According to the above description, the first medicine inlet is arranged in the compartment C1, and the second medicine inlet is arranged in the compartment C2.

The present invention is not limited thereto, and the second drug inlet may be disposed in the compartment C1, and the first drug inlet may be disposed in the compartment C2.

In addition, the first medicine inlet may be provided in plurality in accordance with the type of the first medicine to be injected. Similarly, the second medicine inlet may also be provided in plurality according to the type of the second medicine to be added.

On the other hand, the first agent and the second agent may be added through one inlet, rather than each through the inlet. That is, the drug dispensing passage of the first drug dispensing device and the second drug dispensing device is connected to the first drug injector so that the first drug and the second drug may be simultaneously injected through one first drug injector. Similarly, the first drug dispensing device and the drug dispensing passage of the second drug dispensing device may be connected to the second drug injector so that the first and second drugs may be simultaneously injected through one second drug injector.

The partition space C2 may also serve as a space for checking whether the injected first drug and the second drug are properly added according to a prescription.

For this purpose, the inspection equipment for inspecting the medicament may be disposed on one side in the compartment space (C2). The inspection equipment checks the compartment space C2 to confirm the injected medicine. The partition space C2 may further include an alignment device for solving the inspection error caused by the overlapping of the drugs. The alignment device is a device for dispersing the injected medicine by applying vibration to the compartment space (C2). The alignment device is driven by the control unit, and may be operated immediately when the second drug is injected, but since the drug is naturally scattered by dropping, the test equipment may be operated at the time when the test equipment generates a drug detection error to improve the test speed. have. That is, when the control unit receives the detection error signal from the inspection equipment, the alignment apparatus may be driven, and then the inspection equipment may check the medicine again.

When it is determined that the injected medicine is different from the prescription as a result of the test, the controller rotates the medicine rotating unit 100 by one compartment to move the injected medicine to the compartment space (C3).

The compartment space C3 is a compartment for discarding the drug. For this purpose, the drug disposal opening is arranged in the compartment space C3. When the control unit determines that the injected medicine is different from the prescription, the control unit opens the drug disposal opening to remove the medicine that does not fit the prescription from the compartment space C3.

In this case, when it is determined that the injected drug is different from the prescription, the operation may be divided into three cases.

If it is determined that at least one of the first drug or the second drug is different from the prescription, the control unit rotates the drug rotating unit 100 by one compartment space as described above to move the injected medicine to the compartment space (C3) And discard by opening the disposal container. After discarding, the control unit may rotate the drug rotating unit 100 in the reverse direction to be located in the compartment (C1) or as it is rotated forward as it is again placed in the compartment where the drug injection is performed. Therefore, the first agent and the second agent may be controlled to be sequentially added again.

Meanwhile, according to various embodiments of the present disclosure, at least one of the drug outlet or the drug disposal outlet may be further disposed in the compartment C2 as well as the test equipment.

When it is determined that at least one of the injected first medicine or the second medicine is different from the prescription, the controller may dispose the medicine in the compartment space C2 by opening the drug disposal opening provided in the compartment space C2.

Alternatively, when it is determined that the injected medicine is the same as the prescription as a result of the test in the compartment space C2 (that is, when it is normal), the control unit opens the drug outlet disposed in the compartment space C2 and the normal drug is transferred to the wrapping paper. To be packaged.

Second operation: repacking

If it is determined that at least one of the first medicine and the second medicine is missing, the controller rotates the medicine rotating unit 100 in the reverse direction and moves the compartment into the compartment into which the first medicine or the second medicine is injected. Position it. Alternatively, the rotation unit 100 is rotated in the forward rotation direction to position the partition space as a compartment into which the first or second drug is injected.

If the first drug is properly injected and only the second drug is missing, the control unit moves the compartment to the compartment C2 and transmits a re-insertion command to the second drug dispensing device. It is made to enter into space C2.

If the second drug is properly injected and only the first drug is missing, the control unit moves the corresponding compartment to the compartment C1 and transmits a re-insertion command to the first drug dispensing device so that the first drug is divided into the compartment. To (C1).

Thereafter, the rotation unit 100 is rotated in the forward direction so that the inspection is performed again in the partition space C2. Since the process is the same as described above.

If it is determined that the injected medicine is the same as the prescription as a result of the test in the compartment space (C2) (that is, normal), the controller rotates the drug rotating unit 100 to move the normal drug into the compartment space C3. The normal medicine is transferred to the compartment space C4 by the continuation of the medicine input, the inspection and the operation according to the test result for the new compartment space C2.

The compartment space C4 is a compartment for packing a medicine. For this purpose, a discharge port is connected to the packaging part in the compartment space C4. The control unit controls the outlet to be opened, and the normal medicine is transported to the wrapping paper through the outlet and packed.

On the other hand, according to various embodiments of the present invention, the compartment space (C3) may be further disposed as well as the drug outlet.

If the test result is normal in the compartment space C2, the controller rotates the drug rotating unit 100 to move the normal drug into the compartment space C3, and opens the drug outlet disposed in the compartment space C3 to open the normal drug. Is transported to the wrapping paper so that it can be packed.

<3rd action: error marking>

In order to proceed with rapid drug packaging, even if a drug inspection error occurs, the drug can be packaged as it is.

The inspection equipment checks the compartment space C2 to confirm the injected medicine. In this embodiment, even if an error occurs, the control unit rotates the respective compartment spaces forward (that is, transfers to the compartment space C4) so that the medicine having an error is packaged as it is. In this case, the control unit may control the marking unit to mark whether or not an error occurs on the packaging paper into which the error occurs.

The error (error) that is generated is often generated because the drugs are not distinguished in the process of analyzing the image of the drug. Therefore, if an error occurs, it may be desirable to package the error drug as it is, but to mark only the error on the package, rather than discarding the drug and proceeding with the new drug input.

Afterwards, the inspector can check only the medicines of which the error is marked, so as to determine whether the medicine is actually caused by the wrong injection or whether the inspection equipment has caused the error on the normally injected medicine. In this case, the error marking may be indicated by marker ink that is easy to remove. Therefore, when it is determined that it is normal at the time of visual inspection, it is possible to change the medicine medicine determined to be an error to a normal medicine medicine only by removing a marking.

Only the drug (T2) that can be described by way of example. A single dose of medication according to the patient's prescription is assumed to include a medication (T1) collected in a tray and a medication (T2) that can be accommodated in a medication cassette. Are assumed to be the same.

In addition, the rotating member 110 may rotate in the forward or reverse direction. As shown, the forward direction is counterclockwise.

First, as shown in FIG. 8, one of T1 drugs is automatically arranged in one of the straight portions 130A through the inlet 210A according to the patient's prescription. The drug is first injected through the inlet 210A to 130A1.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 9, when the rotating member 110 rotates by one compartment, the second T1 drug is introduced into the compartment 130A1 through the inlet 210A, and as a result, the compartment 130A1 ( The drug T1 is added to 130A2).

In the same manner, in FIG. 10, a third T1 drug is introduced into the compartment space 130A1 through the inlet 210A, and as a result, the drug T1 is injected into the compartment spaces 130A1, 130A2, 130A3, and in FIG. 11. The first T1 drug is introduced into the compartment space 130A1 through the inlet 210A, and as a result, the drug T1 is introduced into the compartment spaces 130A1, 130A2, 130A3, and 130A4.

In FIG. 12, the fifth T1 drug is introduced into the compartment space 130A1 through the inlet 210A, and as a result, the drug T1 is injected into the compartment spaces 130A1, 130A2, 130A3, 130A4, and 140A.

Next, in FIG. 13, the sixth T1 drug is introduced into the compartment space 130A1 through the inlet 210A, and consequently, T1 in the compartment spaces 130A1, 130A2, 130A3, 130A4, 140A and 130B1. Each medication is injected. At this time, one T2 drug is automatically injected from the drug cassette into the compartment space 130B1 through the inlet 210B according to the prescription of the patient. Therefore, the injection of the medicines T1 and T2 corresponding to one dose according to the prescription of the patient into the compartment space 130B1 is completed.

At the same time, the collected medication (T1, T2) is taken by the inspection equipment 400. The inspection equipment 400 may photograph the partition space 130B1 where the injection of the drugs T1 and T2 is completed, including an imager and an illuminator, and whether the photographed image information matches the prescription of the patient by a control unit that provides a print signal. Can be used to determine whether or not.

In other words, the controller may determine whether an error of the medicines T1 and T2 collected in the compartment space 130B1 is compared with the image photographed by the examination equipment 400, and the preset data of the patient. Inspection information may be provided to the marking unit or the printing unit to mark the result compared with the prescription information or print the prescription information on the packaging paper in which the medicine collected in the space 130B1 is discharged and packaged.

In FIG. 14, one tablet of the seventh T1 drug is introduced into the compartment space 130A1 through the inlet 210A, and as a result, the drugs of T1 are respectively injected into the compartment spaces 130A1, 130A2, 130A3, 130A4, and 140A. One tablet of T2 is injected into the compartments 130B1 and 130B2 from the drug cassette. Therefore, the injection of the medicines T1 and T2 corresponding to the single dose according to the prescription of the patient into the compartment spaces 130B1 and 130B2 is completed.

Similarly, in FIG. 15, one tablet of the eighth T1 drug is introduced into the compartment space 130A1 through the inlet 210A, and consequently, the drug T1 is respectively injected into the compartment spaces 130A1, 130A2, 130A3, 130A4, and 140A. In the compartments 130B1, 130B2 and 130B3, one tablet of T2 is introduced from the drug cassette. Therefore, the injection of the medicines T1 and T2 corresponding to one dose according to the prescription of the patient into the compartment spaces 130B1, 130B2 and 130B3 is completed.

In FIG. 16, one ninth T1 drug is introduced into the compartment space 130A1 through the inlet 210A, and as a result, the T1 agent is respectively injected into the compartment spaces 130A1, 130A2, 130A3, 130A4, and 140A. One tablet of T2 is injected into the compartments 130B1, 130B2, 130B3, and 130B4 from the drug cassette. Therefore, the injection of the medicines T1 and T2 corresponding to the single dose according to the patient's prescription is completed into the partition spaces 130B1, 130B2, 130B3 and 130B4.

It is assumed that the drug T1 among the drugs put into the partition space 130B1 is confirmed to be the poor drug F by the imaging of the inspection equipment 400. As described above, if the marking unit or the printing unit provides a signal for marking or printing an error on the wrapping paper, the work may be repeatedly performed through the forward rotation.

At this time, it is possible to selectively discard the defective drug (F) without indicating the error on the packaging paper. Hereinafter, a method of discarding such a defective drug (F) will be described.

In FIG. 16, since normal T1 and T2 drugs are respectively injected into the compartments 130B2, 130B3, and 130B4, the corresponding drugs need to be discharged normally, and only the compartments 130B1 have the defective drug F. You only need to discard this medicine.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 17, the normal medicines disposed in the compartment space 130B4 of FIG. 16 are continuously discharged through the outlet 310 toward the wrapping paper through the forward rotation. From this time, the injection of the T1 medicine into the compartment space 130A1 can be stopped for a while as shown in FIG. 17.

Likewise, as shown in FIG. 18, the normal drugs disposed in the compartment space 130B3 of FIG. 16 are continuously discharged through the outlet 310 through forward rotation, and as shown in FIG. 19, the forward rotation is continued. The normal medicines disposed in the compartment space 130B2 of FIG. 16 are discharged through the outlet 310. Now, since the defective drug F remains in the partition space 130B4, this may be discarded.

To this end, as shown in FIG. 20, the poor drug agent F moves to the partition space 130B3 through the reverse rotation.

As shown in FIG. 21, through the reverse rotation, the defective drug F moves to the compartment space 130B2, and is disposed in communication with the drug disposal opening 320 that can be opened and closed at the lower side of the compartment space 130B2. The waste agent 320 may be opened to discard the defective drug F.
