Abstract

A system and apparatus for a medication container singulator apparatus is disclosed. The container singulator apparatus includes a main frame, a belt support, a cleated belt, a ramp, a divider, and a push plate. As medication containers are routed upward along the cleated belt, the push plate pushes medication containers towards one end of the cleated belt. The divider knocks off medication containers lying perpendicular to the cleated belt. The ramp pushes medication containers hanging off of the cleated belt off. At the top end of the container singulator apparatus, medication containers are limited to one per cleat and are pushed to one side of the cleated belt.
