Medicine case and medicine packing apparatus provided with this medicine case
View Patent ↗The present invention intends to let the medicine fall regularly, by eliminating the static electricity charged on the medicine in the medicine case. A medicine case comprising a medicine case portion for containing medicine in the upper part and a mechanism unit in the lower part, the mechanism unit having a inflow passage where inflows medicine in the medicine case section and a guide face for guiding medicine into this inflow passage, an alignment body rotated or shaken by a driving unit and a fixing plate having a partition interposed in the way between a medicine chute passage communicating with the inflow passage and the inflow passage, wherein a self-dischargeable cloth having an area opposed at least to the slide area due to the shake, or, rotation of the alignment body is arranged, outside this medicine case, prevents this alignment body, the medicine and the portion of the medicine case section susceptible to be charged by mutual rubbing from being charged, and in case they are charged, they discharge and, therefore a failed discharge where the medicine is not discharged can be prevented as far as possible.
1. A medicine case, comprising a medicine case portion for containing a medicine on the upper part thereof and a mechanism unit on the lower part thereof, the mechanism unit having an inflow passage where medicine in said medicine case portion flows through and a guide face for guiding the medicine into the inflow passage, further having an alignment body rotated or shaken by a driving unit and a fixing plate having a medicine chute passage for the medicine communicating with said inflow passage and a partition interposed in the way of the inflow passage, wherein a self-dischargeable cloth having an area opposed at least to the slide area of the alignment body is arranged, outside of the medicine case.
2. A medicine case, comprising a medicine case portion for containing a medicine on the upper part thereof and a mechanism unit on the lower part thereof, the mechanism unit having an inflow passage where the medicine in said medicine case portion flows through and a guide face for guiding the medicine into the inflow passage, further having an alignment body rotated or shaken by a driving unit and a fixing plate having a medicine chute passage communicating with said inflow passage and a partition interposed in the way of said inflow passage, wherein a self-dischargeable cloth having a breadth of at least 20 mm in the upper part of said inflow passage, or a breadth of at least five times the dimension of said tablets measured along said inflow passage is arranged all around the outside of the medicine case.
3. A medicine case, comprising a medicine case portion for containing a medicine on the upper part thereof and a mechanism unit in the lower part thereof, the mechanism unit having an inflow passage where the medicine in said medicine case portion flows through and a guide face for guiding the medicine into the inflow passage, further having an alignment body rotated or shaken by a driving unit and a fixing plate having a medicine chute passage communicating with said inflow passage and a partition interposed in the way of said inflow passage, wherein a self-dischargeable cloth having an area opposed at least to the slide area of said alignment body and having a breadth of at least 20 mm in the upper part of said inflow passage, or, a breadth of at least five times the dimension of said tablets measured along said inflow passage is arranged, outside of the medicine case.
4. The medicine case of claims 1 to 3 , wherein said self-dischargeable cloth is pasted to said medicine case from the outside with an electroconductive two-sided tape.
