A process for making morphine-6-glucuronide or substituted morphine-6-glucuronide

摘要

Apparatus for sorting differently identified articles, particularly coloured gaming chips, comprises transfer means (2) arranged to remove individual chips from a random store (1) and transfer them to a conveyor (19). The conveyor carries the chips first to sensing means arranged to sense the identifiable characteristic of the chip and then to a chip ejector (25) arranged to remove the chips from the conveyor and deposit them in a respective selected one of a plurality of receptacles depending on the characteristic of the chip previously identified. Chips in a hopper 1 are carried by pairs of pegs on a rotating disc (2) up to an exchange plate (15). A finger diverts the chips through an aperture in the plate (15) into respective apertures in the conveyor (19). The chips are ejected by ejector array (25) into appropriate columns of sorted chips according to the colour of light reflected by the chips. IMAGE
