The V-shaped bucket type powder packaging device has a horizontally slender V-shaped bucket (powder injection part). And, a plurality of divided containers are arranged at the lower part of the V-shaped bucket.

In the V-shaped hopper type powder packaging device, the pharmacist weighs the powder for multiple doses, and puts the powder for multiple doses into the V-shaped hopper. Thereafter, the powder is evenly shoveled with a shovel or the like. And, open the baffle plate arranged at the lower part of the V-shaped bucket, and put the powder in the powder feeding part into the lower dividing container. Pack the powder in each divided container individually.

Dispensing dish-type powder packaging devices are disclosed in, for example, Patent Documents 3 and 4.

The powder subpackaging device in the form of a sorting dish is equipped with a distributing dish with a groove on the upper surface, a distributing dish rotating mechanism for rotating the distributing dish, a pulling device for pulling the powder out of the groove, a vibrating conveying trough, and a feeding hopper.

In the dispensing dish type powder packaging device, the pharmacist weighs the powder for multiple doses, puts the powder into the feeding hopper, vibrates the vibrating conveying tank, and then rotates the dispensing dish.

The powder put into the hopper is evenly dispersed by the vibrating conveying trough, and slowly moves at a certain speed and falls to the distribution dish. Disperse the powder that falls from the conveying trough to the distribution dish evenly with the distribution dish.

Afterwards, move the rotating plate of the pull-out device to the groove of the distributing dish, rotate the distributing dish at a specified angle, collect the prescribed amount of powder on the front side of the rotating plate, and then rotate the rotating plate to discharge the collected powder. The dispensed powders are then individually packaged.

On the other hand, the powdered medicine is charged into the hopper (medicine input part) 905 . And, the medicine is divided into predetermined numbers by the medicine dividing and packaging device 3, and individually packaged.

Furthermore, below, while referring to FIG. 11 , a powder medicine weighing device 65 of another structure will be described.

The powder weighing device 65 shown in FIG. 11 has a main body 66 and a weighing container shelf 67 . The main body part 66 can be said to be one in which the medicine container moving mechanism 68 is installed in the above-mentioned powder medicine weighing part 10 .

That is, the main body portion 66 is provided with the drug container installation stand 18 and the weight measuring mechanism 22 on the base portion 20 .

The drug volume setting table 18 and the weighing mechanism 22 are the same as those adopted in the previous embodiment.

The medicine container moving mechanism 68 has a moving table 70 . The moving table 70 has a function of changing the posture by moving in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction with a motor not shown.

That is, the mobile platform 70 protrudes in a cantilever form from the elevating column 71 . The lifting column 71 is raised and lowered by a motor not shown, and can take the raised position as shown in FIG. 11 and the lowered position as shown in FIG. 12 .

Moreover, the lifting column 71 has a traverse mechanism (not shown), and as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13 , the mobile table 70 moves linearly and horizontally with respect to the lifting column 71 . That is, the mobile station 70 moves in the horizontal plane.

The mobile station 70 is provided with an opening 72 as shown in FIG. 15 . Also, the medicine container 30 can be attached to the opening 72 . The medicine container 30 is inserted from the upper part of the opening. There is an engaging portion (not shown) in the opening, and a part of the medicine container 30 engages with the engaging portion in the opening 72 to prevent it from falling. However, when the medicine container 30 is pushed up from under the opening, the medicine container 30 will rise relatively to the moving table 70 .

In the present embodiment, the mobile table 70 has three openings 72 , and the lower part of the medicine container 30 is fitted into each opening 72 . In the present embodiment, the mobile station 70 also functions as a drug container storage unit. The mobile table 70 is a medicine container storage section that stores a plurality of medicine containers 30 side by side on the same plane, and moves the medicine containers 30 horizontally to change their posture.

A conveyor belt (weighing container transfer mechanism) not shown is built in the weighing container rack 67 .

Next, the function of the powder weighing device 65 will be described.

In the powder weighing device 65 , the weighing vessel 52 is taken out from the weighing container shelf 67 by a conveyor belt (weighing container conveying mechanism) not shown, and placed on the setting table 53 of the weight measuring mechanism 22 .

In addition, prescription information is also transmitted from an external computer or the like to the powdered medicine weighing device 65 of the present embodiment.
