An object of the invention is to provide a
medicine feeding apparatus in which it is possible to prevent a
medicine from being broken by well absorbing and reducing a
kinetic energy at a time of discharging the
medicine even in the case that a downsizing and a densification are promoted for making a
discharge speed of the medicine higher, and it is possible to efficiently guide the medicine to an outlet portion of a hopper. Further, the medicine feeding apparatus is provided with a main body, a plurality of tablet cases receiving medicines, a chute received in the main body and through which the medicine discharged from the tablet case comes down, a hopper received in the main body, provided in correspondence to a lower side of the chute and collecting the medicines, and a filling apparatus received in the main body and filling the medicines collected by the hopper in a
drug packing paper or a container. The hopper has a curtain for preventing the medicine passing through the chute from
jumping up or rotating in the hopper caused by drop and absorbing a
kinetic energy.
