Abstract: In a medicine packaging machine including a medicine accommodating mechanism for accommodating plural medicines, a chute for guiding medicines arbitrarily taken out from the medicine accommodating mechanism to a medicine packaging sheet, and a medicine packaging mechanism having a heater for thermally welding the medicine packaging sheet, the heater is provided with an incision tooth for forming an incision at an edge portion of the medicine packaging sheet at the same time when the medicine packaging sheet filled with the medicines. Furthermore, a cutting mechanism for cutting at a predetermined position a separate package bag formed by thermally welding the medicine packaging sheet is provided.

Abstract: In a conventional tablet packing device, a tablet discharged from a tablet case is supplied to a medicine packing unit through a common path such as a hopper. Thus, in the conventional tablet packing device, a large number of types of tablets are collected through the common path, so that a problem of cross contamination (the chipped pieces of the tablet of the type different from that of the tablet to be packed are mixed) occurs. The present invention provides a tablet packing device from which common path is eliminated. The present invention is characterized by including a conveyance unit for conveying a tablet case to a case arrangement section so that a tablet can directly be discharged from the tablet case to a tablet packing unit.

Abstract: A chip removal method removes residue such as chips that have remained in and adhered to an interior of a bag-shaped machined hole in a work piece. After air is jetted out and blown against a bottom portion of the machined hole by using an air blow nozzle to change a flow of air that is circulating inside a nozzle into a spiral flow that moves in a direction towards the bottom portion of the machined hole, this spiral flow then blows upwards like a tornado from a vicinity of the bottom portion of the machined hole in a direction towards an aperture portion of the machined hole so that the residue inside the machined hole is uplifted by the spiral flow and removed.

Abstract: An object of a medicine supply apparatus which fills medicine bottles with medicines from a plurality of tablet cases is to improve a medicine filling performance and remove restrictions on the apparatus, and the apparatus comprises: a plurality of tablet cases which contain the medicines and into which the medicines can be thrown from above; a case storage section in which the respective tablet cases are juxtaposed in one stage on a plane and whose top is openably closed; and a filling device which is disposed under this case storage section and which fills the medicine bottle with the medicine dropping from each tablet case.

Abstract: A disc key detecting unit 3 detects a disc key on the basis of data which is supplied from an RF processor 1. If the disc key can be detected, a system controller 7 controls an optical pickup or the like and reproduces data of a few sectors included in an audio block portion together with data in a TOC portion. On the basis of the disc key, a data decrypting unit 4 decrypts the data in the TOC portion which is supplied from a data demodulating unit 2 and the data of a few sectors and supplies them to a data processing unit 5. The data processing unit supplies the data in the TOC portion and data in a header portion included in the sector to the system controller 7. A validity discriminating unit 8 confirms continuity of time data included in the header portion supplied from the data processing unit 5. If there is no continuity in the time data, a reproducing process or the like is suppressed.
