In FIG. 3, the insertion holes 7A for one horizontal row adjacent to each other, which are vertically positioned, are formed by being shifted laterally by half the pitch p in the horizontal direction. This allows
The front, rear, left and right insertion holes 7A adjacent to each other have the same distance as the pitch p at the center of each other. By arranging the insertion holes 7A in this manner, when the syringe 2 is inserted into the insertion holes 7A, the flange portions 2c of the adjacent front, rear, left and right syringes 2 do not come into contact with each other (FIG. 4). Further, in the present embodiment, the positioning portions 7B, 7B (7B ', 7B') on the left and right short sides and the respective insertion holes 7 around the central portion C of the middle tray 7 as the center of rotation.

Can be positioned at a predetermined position in the horizontal direction on the upper side. The holding members 13, 13 ′ can insert the middle tray 7 in a predetermined horizontal position at a predetermined position in the horizontal direction so that the syringes 2 in a horizontal row held by holding means 14 described later can be accurately inserted into the horizontal row of insertion holes 7 </ b> A on the middle tray 7 side. It is configured as follows.

Next, the transfer means 14 for inserting the syringe 2 into the insertion hole 7A of the middle tray 7 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the transfer means 14 includes an engaging member 15 supported horizontally, and has 18 semicircular engaging recesses 15a formed at the pitch p on the front surface thereof. In a state where the main body 2a of the syringe 2 is engaged with these engagement concave portions 15a and the flange 2c is placed on the upper surface of the engagement member 15, 18 syringes 2 for one row are held. ing. The engaging member 15 is interlocked with a driving means (not shown), and is moved up and down by a required amount at a position above and adjacent to the middle tray 7 sandwiched by the positioning means 12 and is moved up and down. With such a configuration, the engaging member 15 holding the 18 syringes 2 for one horizontal row is positioned just above the insertion holes 7A for one horizontal row of the empty middle tray 7, and then By lowering by a predetermined amount, 18 syringes 2 for one row can be simultaneously inserted into the insertion holes 7A for one row of the middle tray 7. Thereafter, the engaging member 15 is slightly retracted to separate the engaging recess 15a from the syringe 2, and then the engaging member 15 is raised to the original raised position. Thereafter, the engaging member 15 is retracted to hold the next one row of the syringes 2 in the engaging recesses 15a, and is advanced again to the ascending position of the second row of insertion holes 7A on the middle tray 7 side. Then, the 18 syringes 2 are simultaneously inserted into the insertion holes 7A for the second horizontal row in the manner described above. The first row of insertion holes 7A
And the insertion holes 7A in the second row are arranged such that the syringes 2 for one horizontal row are held by the engaging members 15 and then the engaging members 15 are shifted laterally by a half pitch (p) before being advanced. ing. By repeatedly operating the engaging member 15 in this manner, all the insertion holes 7A of the middle tray 7 are formed.
The syringes 2 can be inserted one row at a time. Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the lifting / lowering means 11 includes an air cylinder 18 which is directed vertically upward, and four support rods 16 which are raised and lowered in conjunction with the air cylinder. As the air cylinder 18 is moved up and down, the upper end of the support rod 16 can protrude and retract into the outer tray 6 through the through hole 6b of the outer tray 6. In this embodiment, the middle tray 7 is configured to be supported at a predetermined height from the lower side by projecting the support rod 16 into the outer tray 6. Outer tray 6
(See FIG. 5). In this state, the syringe 2 is inserted into the insertion hole 7A of the middle tray 7. In this embodiment, the processing device 21 for the syringe 2 and the container 1 is constituted by the lifting / lowering means 11, the positioning means 12, and the transfer means 14.

(Description of Operation) Next, the operation when the syringe 2 is stored in the container 1 by the processing device 21 will be described. Before starting the work, the air cylinder 18 of the lifting / lowering means 11 is lowered to the lower end, the support rod 16 is also at the lower end, and the holding member 13 of the positioning means 12 and the engaging member 15 of the transfer means 14 are also retracted. ing. From this state, as shown in FIG. 5, first, the outer tray 6 containing the middle tray 7 is supplied by a supply unit (not shown) onto a support frame (not shown) at a predetermined processing position A. Thereafter, the air cylinder 18 of the elevating means 11 is raised by a predetermined amount, so that the four support rods 16 are raised, and they penetrate through the through holes 6b of the outer tray 6 and protrude into the outer tray 6. Abuts the bottom of the middle tray 7 from the
Is raised by a predetermined amount to support the middle tray 7 at a predetermined height. As shown in FIG. 5, in this state, the upper surface of the middle tray 7 is located above the support portion 6a of the outer tray 6, and the bottom surface of the middle tray 7 is located below the support portion 6a. 6. Next, the positioning means 12
Of the middle tray 7 are advanced in synchronization with each other.
The positioning portions 7B, 7B (7B ', 7B') of the holding members 13, 13 are engaged with the engagement protrusions 13a, 13a (13a ', 13B).
a '). Thereby, the middle tray 7
Is positioned at a predetermined position in the horizontal direction in the outer tray 6 at the height described above. At this time, even if the short side of the middle tray 7 supported by the support rod 16 is reversed left and right, as described above, the positioning portion 7
B, 7B (7B ', 7B') and the insertion hole 7A are provided at point-symmetric positions with respect to the center C of the middle tray 7 as the center of rotation. Therefore, when the middle tray 7 is sandwiched by the positioning means 12, it is not necessary to consider where the left and right short sides are located. Therefore, the positioning of the middle tray 7 in the horizontal direction can be performed quickly. As a result, the positions of the insertion holes 7A for one horizontal row of each of the middle trays 7 held by the positioning means 12 are positioned below the one row of the syringes 2 when the transfer means 14 holding the syringe 2 is advanced. It is positioned to be on the side. By this time, the eighteen syringes 2 are held in the engagement recesses 15a of the transfer means 14 at the retracted position. Then, thereafter, the transfer means 14 holding the syringe 2 in the engaging recess 15a is advanced to a position above the one row of insertion holes 7A located on the innermost side (the lowermost side in FIG. 3) of the middle tray 7. You.

Thereafter, since the transfer means 14 is lowered by a predetermined amount, the syringes 2 supported by the engagement recesses 15a are simultaneously inserted into the insertion holes 7A for one horizontal row. Thereafter, since the transfer means 14 is slightly retracted, the engagement recess 1
5a is separated from the syringe 2, and then the transfer means 14 is raised to the original raised position. Thus, the syringe 2 has been inserted into the insertion holes 7A for one horizontal row (see FIGS. 4 and 5). Thereafter, the transfer means 14 which has returned to the original raised position is retracted to the original retracted position, and the 18 syringes 2 are held by the supply means (not shown) in the empty engagement recesses 15a. When the syringes 2 of the second row are held in the engagement recesses 15a in this manner, the transfer means 14 is advanced again by a required amount, and the syringes 2 supported by the engagement recesses 15a are inserted into the second row of insertion holes. It is supported at an upper position in 7A. Thereafter, as in the case of the processing of the syringe 2 in the first row, the transfer means 14 is slightly lowered after being lowered, so that the syringe 2 in the second row is inserted into the insertion hole 7A in the second row. Inserted at once.
Thereafter, the transfer means 14 is raised to the original raised position and then retracted to the original retracted position, and holds the third row of syringes 2 in the engagement recesses 15a in the manner described above. Thereafter, the transfer means 14 is advanced by a required amount, so that the engagement recess 15
The third row of syringes 2 held at a is supported above the third row of insertion holes 7A. Thereafter, the transfer means 1
4 is moved down and then moved up a little, so that the syringes 2 for the third row are simultaneously inserted into the insertion holes 7A of the third row as described above. The transfer means 14 repeats the above-described operation, and inserts the syringe 2 into all the insertion holes 7A of the middle tray 7 in the fourth and subsequent rows.

When the syringe 2 is inserted into all the insertion holes 7A provided in the middle tray 7, the air cylinders 17, 17 'of the positioning means 12 are retracted, and the middle tray 7 is held by the holding means 13, 13'. 7 is released. Thereafter, the air cylinder 18 is lowered to retract the support rod 16 below the through-hole 6b, so that the middle tray 7 is also lowered and stored in the outer tray 6. Thereafter, the cover member 8 is put on the middle tray 7 in the outer tray 6 by an operator or a processing means (not shown). This means that the storage of the syringe 2 in the container 1 has been completed. The container 1 in which the storage of the syringe 2 has been completed in this way is discharged from the processing position A, and the second outer tray 6 in which the middle tray 7 is stored is supplied to the processing position A. Thereafter, the syringe 2 is inserted into the middle tray 7 of the second container 1 in the manner described above,
It is stored in the second middle tray 7 and the second
Cover member 8 is covered. Thereafter, the second container 1 is discharged from the processing position A, and is stacked on the first container 1.

Next, when the syringe 2 is discharged from the container 1, the processing device 21 performs the processing through the reverse of the above-described storage process. That is,
When the container 1 containing the syringe 2 is supplied to the processing position A, the cover member 8 is first removed, and then the support rod 1
6 is raised to support the middle tray 7 at a predetermined height.
Thereafter, the middle tray 7 is positioned in the horizontal direction by holding the middle tray 7 by the holding members 13 and 13 ′ of the positioning means 12. In this state, when the transfer means 14 is advanced to a required amount in a state where the transfer means 14 is lowered to the lower end, the engagement concave portion 15a of the engagement member 15 is located at the foremost position (the leftmost position in FIG. Side) of the syringe 2 in one row. Thereafter, by raising the transfer means 14, the syringe 2 is held in a hung state by the engagement recess 15a, and is withdrawn simultaneously from the insertion hole 7A. Thereafter, the transfer means 14
Is retracted, and the syringe 2 held in the engaging recess 15a is removed by a discharging means (not shown). Thereafter, the transfer means 14 is lowered to the lower end and then advanced by a required amount, so that the engagement recess 15a is engaged with the syringe 2 in the second row. Thereafter, the transfer means 14 is raised, so that the syringes 2 in the second row are simultaneously withdrawn from the insertion holes 7A of the middle tray 7. In this way, when all the syringes 2 held in the middle tray 7 are withdrawn by the transfer means 14, the holding members 13, 13 'are retracted to release the holding state of the middle tray 7. Next, as the support rod 16 is lowered below the through-hole 6b, the middle tray 7 is also lowered and stored in the outer tray 6. Thus, when the removal of the syringe 2 from the first container 1 is completed, the first container 1 is discharged from the storage position A, and the second container 1 storing the syringe 2 is supplied to the storage position A. Thereafter, the syringe 2 is taken out of the second container 1 in the same manner as in the case of the first container 1.

According to the above-described embodiment, the syringes 2 at adjacent positions held in the insertion holes 7A of the middle tray 7 are:
Since the collar portion 2c does not contact, it is possible to prevent the flange portion 2c of the syringe 2 from being damaged when the syringe 2 is stored in the container 1. Further, since the processing device 21 simultaneously inserts the 18 syringes 2 in a horizontal line into the insertion holes 7A by the transfer means 14, all the insertion holes 7 in the middle tray 7 are removed.
The time required for inserting the syringe 2 into A can be reduced. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, after the middle tray 7 is lifted by the lifting / lowering means 11, positioning in the horizontal direction is performed by the positioning means 12, and in that state, the insertion holes in the horizontal row of the middle tray 7 are aligned. 7
One row of the syringes 2 is inserted into and removed from A. With such a configuration, the insertion holes 7A of the middle tray 7 are increased as much as possible, so that the middle tray 7 can hold as many syringes 2 as possible. This will be described in more detail. In this embodiment, the syringe 2 is inserted into and removed from the container 1 by supporting the syringe 2 from the side at the recess 15a of the engaging member 15 of the transfer means 14 and supporting the same. Is going. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4, in this embodiment, the upper surface of the middle tray 7 housed in the outer tray 6 and the flange 2 c of the syringe 2 inserted into the insertion hole 7 </ b> A of the middle tray 7 support the outer tray 6. It is located below the portion 6a. In this state, if the transfer means 14 tries to put the syringe 2 into and out of the container 1, the transfer means 14 will interfere with the support 6 a of the outer tray 6. Then, after the middle tray 7 is lifted by the lifting / lowering means 11, positioning in the horizontal direction is performed by the positioning means 12, and in this state, the syringes 2 for one row are inserted into and removed from the insertion holes 7 A of the middle tray 7 in one row. ing. Thereby, the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the middle tray 7 can be reduced, and a large number of insertion holes 7A can be formed in the middle tray 7 as long as the flange portion 2c at the adjacent position does not abut. Further, according to the above-described embodiment, the outer diameter of the plug 3 attached to the small diameter portion of the syringe 2 shown in FIG.
The syringe 2 can be stored in the container 1 (the insertion hole 7A of the middle tray 7) without any problem even if the syringe 2 is larger than the outer diameter of the main body 2a. Further, according to the present embodiment, even if there are some manufacturing errors in the dimensions of the syringe 2 and the insertion hole 7A, the syringe 2 can be stored in the container 1 (the insertion hole 7A of the middle tray 7) without any trouble. .
