Abstract: Tablets are delivered from a tablet storage case (3) mounted on a case support table (4), and when the tablets are passed through a delivery passage (9), formed in the case support table (3), quantity of the passed tablets is counted by a counting means (10). A start state of mounting of the tablet storage case (4) on the case support table (3) is detected by case detection means (8, 19), and the counting sensor (10) is kept in off state until the start state of mounting of the photon-electron conversion region is detected by the case detection (8, 19) and is set to On state after the detection. This ensures prevention of erroneous operation due to the mounting and dismounting of the tablet storage case (4) on and from the case support table (3).

Abstract: A medicine package conveying apparatus is provided with a conveyor (7) and a roller member (9) to convey a medicine package (100) with a plurality of bags in which medicine is packaged. The roller member (9) is made of elastic material and includes press portions (31) of cylindrical shape which rotate and press both side edges of the medicine package (100) on the conveyor (7) and an escape portion (32) which is positioned between the press portions (31) and is smaller in a diameter than the press portions (31). Thus, the medicine package conveying apparatus can smoothly convey the medicine package.
