TABLET LAYING MECHANISM IN DISC TYPE TABLET TRANSPORT APPARATUS

摘要

PURPOSE: To surely store tablets supplied from a hopper in a normal condition in a cavity. ;CONSTITUTION: Many tablet storing cavities 4 are formed on the outer periphery of the disc type tablet transport apparatus 1 and each disc type tablet transport roller 2 provided with each suction hole 5 in each cavity formed on, each tablet supply hopper 3 opposite to the transport roller, and each tablet laying mechanism 10 for holding each tablet W supplied to each cavity 4 stably in the cavity 4. The laying mechanism 10 is formed by a truncated conical shape roller 11, and the shaft center of the laying roller is disposed in parallel to the shaft center of the transport roller. Accordingly, even if a tablet is held in any direction to the advancing direction of the transport roller, the pressing action of the laying roller is applied in the oblique direction by a rotating taper surface, so that the supplied tablet is surely transferred in a normal position in a cavity and held therein.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1994,JPO&Japio
