A drug container is arranged in a horizontal state where a central axis extends along a horizontal direction, and the drug container is rotated about the central axis. In such a way, a drug solution in the drug container is moved along an inner surface of the drug container, and the drug container is reciprocally vibrated along the central axis in a state where the drug container is rotated, to stir the drug solution.

Stirring method

A medicine mixing apparatus transfusing a medicine using a syringe includes a medicine cassette holding a medicine container, a lifting unit moving the medicine cassette upward and downward to a middle position or a lower position of a main body while maintaining a horizontal attitude of the medicine cassette, a first holding portion held by the main body, and a second driving unit which drives a plunger of the syringe held by the first holding portion to transfuse the medicine.

Medicine transfusion apparatus and medicine transfusion method

A drug transferring needle includes a needle base portion, a first needle portion having therein an air passage, and a second needle portion longer than the first needle portion and arranged parallel to the first needle portion. In the first needle portion, a first air vent being one end of the air passage is provided on a distal end side of the second needle portion from a second air vent being the other end of the air passage. In the second needle portion, one end of a liquid passage is connected to the inside of the needle base portion, and the other end thereof is a liquid pass opening of the second needle portion. The second needle portion has a distal end having the liquid pass opening, a base portion connected to the needle base portion, and an intermediate portion connecting the distal end and the base portion.

Drug transferring needle and drug transferring method

A drug solution inspection device includes a jig that mounts thereon a syringe containing a drug solution, an imaging unit that captures an image of the syringe mounted on the jig, an exposure unit that performs exposure on the syringe mounted on the jig, and a first control unit that controls the imaging unit and the exposure unit to acquire inspection information. In order to inspect an amount of the drug solution in the syringe, the first control unit transmits the captured image of the syringe while changing an exposure state of the exposure unit.

Provided is an automatic hair washing apparatus for washing person's hair in a safe and effective manner without applying a straining force on person's neck. An automatic hair washing apparatuscomprises a bowlhaving a head support; washing unitsL andR arranged with the head supportinterposed therebetween, the support shafts thereof being attached to the bowl; a driving section for rotating the washing unitsL andR about the respective support shaftsL andR; and a control section for controlling the driving of the driving section; wherein each of the washing unitsL andR comprises a plurality of contactson a surface opposite to the surface supported by the support shaftL andR.

Automatic hair washing apparatus

A syringe drive deviceincludes a fixing sectionfixing an outer tube, a movable holderholding a plunger, and a drive sectiondriving the holderalong an axis of the plunger to push and pull the plunger with respect to the outer tube. An internal pressure detectorhas a positive pressure detection switchdetecting an internal pressure of a syringe. A determination sectiondetermines the issuance of an alert when the holderis stopped and the positive pressure detection switchis ON. A display sectionis lit to indicate the alert when the determination sectiondetermines to issue the alert.

Syringe drive device and syringe drive method

A medicinal solution injection apparatusincludes a composite needleincluding a needle base portion, an injection needle, and an adjustment needle, a pressure generating portionconfigured to discharge a compressed air, a measuring portionconfigured to measure a filling amount and a filling speed of a medicinal solution by measuring a position of a gasketof a syringe, and a control portionconfigured to control the pressure generating portionand the measuring portion. The compressed air is introduced into a vial containerthrough an edgeof the adjustment needlelocated above a liquid surfaceof the medicinal solution in the vial container(outside the liquid surface) to press the liquid surfaceof the medicinal solution downward, so that a medicinal solutionis injected into the syringethrough an edgeof the injection needlein the medicinal solution. The medicinal solution injection apparatuscan accurately and efficiently inject the medicinal solutionof the vial containerinto the syringewhile suppressing the medicinal solutionfrom foaming.

A syringe drive deviceaccording to the present invention includes: an outer tube fixing portionthat detachably fixes an outer tubeof a syringe; a plunger holderthat holds a plungerof the syringe; and a drive portion that moves the plunger holderalong an axis of the syringe. The outer tube fixing portionincludes: a flange catcherfacing a rear end of a flangeof the outer tube, the rear end being located far from the plungerto be pushed; slide portionsandthat are located in front of a front end of the flangeto hold the flangebetween the flange catcherand the slide portions, the front end being located close to the plungerto be pushed; slide guidesandthat support the slide portionsandso as to be slidable along the axis of the syringe; and a slide portion operation mechanism that is switchable between a first state where the slide portionsandslide along the axis of the syringe, and a second state where the slide portionsandare held at positions to hold the flangebetween the flange catcherand the slide portions.

Syringe drive device

A syringe drive deviceincludes a cylinder holding sectionconfigured to detachably hold a cylindera piston manipulating sectiondetachably coupled with a piston, and a piston drive sectionincluding racksA andB coupled with the piston manipulating sectionand configured to move the piston manipulating sectionso that a pistonis moved in a push-in direction or a pull-out direction. A cylinderA having a given capacity (for example, 50 cc) is directly loaded in the syringe drive devicewith no adapter therebetween. A syringeC having a different capacity (for example, 20 cc) is loaded in the syringe drive deviceby means of a cylinder adapterand a piston adapter

A syringe drive device drives a syringe including a cylindrical cylinder and a piston. The cylinder includes a solution supply port at one end, and an opening at the other end. The piston is inserted into the cylinder through the opening. The syringe drive device includes a cylinder holder to rotatably hold the cylinder of the syringe, and a piston driver to drive the piston in its axial direction with respect to the cylinder held in the cylinder holder.

Phial retainer for liquid medicine mixer

A medicine mixing device includes a pedestal, a main rotating-base, a sub rotating-base, and a control unit. The pedestal is used to place medicine containers thereon. The main rotating-base includes a holding portion and a main rotating shaft, and rotates around the main rotating shaft. The holding portion holds a syringe for sucking a medicine at its center on its vertical plane. The main rotating shaft is orthogonal to the vertical plane. The sub rotating-base is disposed close to a part of the circumference of the main-rotating base and rotates relatively with respect to the main rotating-base. The sub rotating-base includes a fixing unit and a sub rotating shaft parallel to the main rotating shaft. The fixing unit fixes thereto one medicine container selected from the medicine containers on the pedestal. The control unit controls a medicine to be sucked out of the medicine container into the syringe.
