  Next, the operation of the medicine packaging device will be described.

  First, prescription data is input or read on the prescription input screen 25. The prescription input can be performed on any of a no-print screen, a usage input screen, or a medicine input screen as required.

  On the usage input screen, the dose can be changed for each dose period by operating the “uneven” button in the powder uneven distribution box. For example, in FIG. 8, the “ASA”, “HIRU”, and “YU” buttons are clicked and highlighted. Also, in the powder 2, the “uneven” button on the right side is clicked and highlighted, and the “Asa”, “Hiru”, and “Yu” fields in the powder 2 column are blanks for numerical input. Here, 1.2 g, 1.2 g, and 2.4 g are entered in the “ASA”, “HIRU”, and “YU” fields, respectively, and 3 (day) is entered in the days / packaging field. . In this case, since one day is 4.8 g for three days, although not shown in FIG. 8, it is preferable to display 14.4 g which is a total value. The pharmacist (user) may weigh powder 1 by a total value of 14.4 g and put it into the supply hopper 6.

  When the prescription data is input in this way, the corresponding supply hopper 6 is selected by the hopper selection button on the initial setting screen of the apparatus operation screen 26. Then, by operating a start button (displayed below the hopper selection button A in the figure), supply of powder to the annular groove 2 of the distribution tray 1 is started. In the supply of powder, the powder feeder 3 is vibrated and the distribution tray 1 is rotated. In the input example of FIG. 8, when the powder charged in the hopper B is supplied to the distribution tray 1 </ b> B, the hopper B may be selected by the hopper selection button and the start button may be touch-operated.

  When the supply of the powder to the distribution tray 1 is completed, the “distribution stop” button displayed below the corresponding hopper selection button is operated to stop the powder feeder 3 and the distribution tray 1. If there is no change in the setting on the setting screen, the packaging process is started by operating the “issue” button on the prescription input screen 25. At this time, the prescription input screen 25 is closed and the initial screen (not shown) is restored. In the example of non-uniform packaging shown in FIG. 8, the distribution tray 1B is rotated by 50,000 pulses per rotation, and when the single packaging is 1.2 g (50,000 × 1.2 / 14.4≈ ) For 4166.7 pulses and 2.4 g for one package, rotate (50,000 × 2.4 / 14.4≈) 8333.3 pulses respectively, and scrape out with the scraping member 7 for packaging.

  In this way, non-uniform packaging can be easily set in the powder non-uniform amount setting field, and subsequent packaging processing can be performed automatically, which not only greatly improves workability, but also packaging. It is possible to provide precise medical care by carefully controlling the amount.

  During the packaging process, the next prescription data can be entered or read. That is, the prescription input screen 25 is opened from the initial screen, and prescription data is input or read. As a result, there is no need to wait for unnecessary time, and the workability can be significantly improved.
