A system for the controlled dispensing and storing of medication and more particularly, a programmable system with medication dispensing modules having a dedicated programmable processor to dispense medication, according to patient requirements that are programmed into the system. The modules incrementally dispense unit doses of medication in a highly controlled manner for a particular patient. The programmable processor of each module is independently capable of receiving and storing information about the respective type, quantity and medication information of each of the unit doses of medication loaded onto an assigned shelf of the module. The information in the programmable processor is automatically updated when a unit dose of medication is dispensed from the module so that the programmable processor contains information about the remaining inventory in the module at any given time.

Medication dispensing and storing system with dispensing modules

An system for protectively coating longitudinally extending rod and bar-like objects, exemplified in application to cylindrical objects such as wooden handles for brooms, brushes and mops, which prescribes effecting a powered, contained movement of handles to be coated in an immediately following series relation; directing the handles to and through an enclosed bath of a selected coating material; in process of the entry of a handle to the bath subjecting it to a movement thereof through a short closely encompassing sleeve which wipes its exterior surface free of dust and dirt, facilitating adherence of coating material thereto and coextensively therewith in its passage through said bath; subjecting the so coated handle to a powered movement thereof through a further short circumferentially and closely encompassing sleeve as it exits from this bath to produce thereby a smooth distribution of adherent coating material over the length of its exterior to form thereon a substantially uniform thin layer thereof and strip excess therefrom to remain in the coating chamber and at the same time, as the leading end of the handle exits from the chamber, substantially immediately subjecting it to air jets to spread coating material over such end in a substantially uniform layer and strip therefrom excess coating material, subjecting the handle immediately thereof to a final stripping, reduction of the thickness and smoothing of the applied coating and immediately curing the same during a continued movement of the handle.
