A medicine sorting apparatus includes a receiving part, an identifying part and a storing part. The storing part includes a plurality of storing trays arranged in multiple stages. A storing area for each of returned medicines is defined at the time of storing each of the returned medicines according to a size of each of the returned medicines identified by the identifying part. Each of the returned medicines is stored in the storing tray in a state that the storing area for each of the returned medicines is associated with identification information of each of the returned medicines so that each of the returned medicines can be taken from the storing tray by a scalar type robot.

Method and apparatus for sorting returned medicine based on size

An object of the present invention is to automatically identify a direction, a posture and characteristics such as a shape, a size, a type and an expiration date of a medicine and store the medicine with ensuring a high degree of freedom. A medicine supplying apparatusincludes an identifying part and a storing part. A storing area is defined at the time of storing the medicine according to a size of a medicine contained in characteristics of the medicine identified by the identifying part. The medicine is stored in the storing part in a state that identification information of the medicine is associated with the storing area. Further, the medicine supplying apparatus has a determination processing part which can determine whether or not the medicine is a target to be treated based on the characteristics of the medicine identified by the identifying part.

Medicine sorting apparatus

This portable terminal has disposed therein: a circuit board (), which is disposed in a cabinet (), and which has an electronic component () mounted thereon; a display panel () disposed on the open plane of the cabinet (); and a rechargeable battery () disposed between the display panel () and the circuit board ().

Portable terminal

A powder medicine dispensing/packaging apparatus includes: a divisional container composed of a first divisional container and a second divisional container connectable to each other and each including a plurality of powder medicine accommodation parts accommodating powder medicine in equal amounts corresponding to one package, each powder medicine accommodation part being equipped with a bottom plate that can be opened and closed; a carrying device for horizontally carrying the divisional container between an initial position and a first movement terminal position; a dispensing/packaging device for recovering powder medicine dropped from the divisional container carried by the carrying device by successively opening the bottom plates and dispensing/packaging the powder medicine package by package; and a swinging device for canceling the connection between the first divisional container and the second divisional container at the first movement terminal position to enable the first divisional container to move to a second movement terminal position and swinging the second divisional container to a retracted position.

Medicine dispensing/packaging apparatus

A medicine dispensing/packaging apparatus is provided with a tablet feeder mechanism, a carrying mechanism, a supporting mechanism, and a dispensing/packaging mechanism. The tablet feeder mechanism further includes tablet accommodation parts, which contain tablets. The tablet accommodation parts are rotatably connected to each other. Each of the tablet accommodation parts further includes a rotatable bottom plate. The carrying mechanism carries the tablet feeder first in a horizontal direction and then in a vertical downward direction. The supporting mechanism provides support to the rotatable bottom plates for part of the time that the tablet feeder is carried in the horizontal direction, thus preventing the plates from opening. When the support to the bottom plate is removed, the bottom plates open, causing the tablets contained in the accommodation parts to be discharged. The discharged tablets are subsequently collected for packaging.

Foams of polypropylene resin composition having remarkably improved extrusion foaming characteristics are prepared by a non-crosslinking extrusion foaming process comprising mixing and kneading polypropylene resin and 1,2-polybutadiene resin so that 1,2-polybutadiene resin reacts under the influence of the heat and shearing stress in the extruder, and extruding thereafter.
