Drug packaging device

Abstract

Provided is a drug packaging device with which it is possible to maintain, at a constant level, the tension applied to a package. This drug packaging device comprises: a package feeder unit that feedspackages; a package transfer unit that transfers packages fed out from the package feeder unit, a tension-imparting unit (11X) that imparts tension to the package, and a transfer control unit that controls at least the package feeder unit. The transfer control unit controls at least the package feeder unit in such a manner that packages are transferred intermittently by means of the package transfer unit, and while intermittent transfer of packages is being executed, the quantity of packages fed out by the package feeder unit is made smaller than the quantity of packages transferred by the package transfer unit, and while intermittent transfer of packages is stopped, executes a feed of the difference in quantity of the quantity of the packages fed out by the package feeder unit with respect to the quantity of packages transferred by the package transfer unit.

Description

[0001] Cross-reference of related applications [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2015-133720, and incorporates the description of this application specification by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a medicine packaging device for packaging medicines. Background technique [0004] As a packaging body for pharmaceuticals, a blister packaging body is used. Patent Document 1 discloses a technique of forming a blister package using a tray having a plurality of storage recesses. Medicines are dispensed to each storage recess of the tray according to the location. Furthermore, a cover sheet is pasted on the open surface of the tray. In the technique of this patent document 1, manual work, such as setting of a tray and sticking of a cover sheet, is required. [0005] Therefore, it is conceivable to use thin and thin sheet-shaped packaging materials instead of pallets. In this case, the medicine ...

Problems solved by technology

If the tension applied to the packaging material cannot be maintained constant, the packaging material will not be transported smoothly, and wrinkles, etc. will occur on the packaging material.

[0007] However, for example, a reel on which an elongated sheet-shaped packaging material is wound is held in a freely rotatable manner, and the packaging material is pulled out from the reel while the reel is freely rotating, and a constant elastic force is applied. The roller abuts against the packaging material being pulled out, and in such a configuration there is a problem because the tension varies with the amount of packaging material rolled in the reel
