Abstract
To quickly fill a bag with medicine containers without damaging the containers, a machine for filling a bag with medicine containers includes: a bag positioning member () for positioning and opening a bag (); a first moving member () that reciprocates between a supply position inside the bag () and a waiting position outside the bag (), the first moving member including a bottom surface portion for supporting medicine containers; a second moving member that reciprocates relative to the bag () and includes a guide surface () guiding medicine containers () to the bottom surface portion; and a drive-control means () that moves the first moving member () from the supply position to the waiting position while maintaining the second moving member () in a fixed position relative to the bag (), thereby causing medicine containers () guided by the guide surface () to the bottom surface portion to remain in the bag ().
