PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a medicine packaging apparatus being usable of a double-fold dispensing belt roll, facilitating a replacement of the dispensing belt roll and reducing an occupied area.SOLUTION: An installation side of a dispensing belt feeding mechanism 30 is elevated to incline a base plate 21. Both of a horizontal seal section and a longitudinal seal section of a sealing mechanism 53 are stored on a downstream side of a medicine loading hopper 52 and a pressing member 51 is placed on the upstream side of the medicine loading hopper 52. A damper 35 is provided within a moving range of a movable roller 36, which adjusts the tension of the dispensing belt 8, so as to surely regulate the movement of the movable roller 36 even if enhancing the speed in feeding the dispensing belt 8. An operation section is moved from an ink ribbon feed mechanism cover section 60 to a body section for reducing the weight, the apparatus is configured to be locked/unlocked interlockingly connected to the operation, and a box-like part of a cover section 60 is defined to be formed of a transparent (translucent) resin for the weight reduction and visualization.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】二つ折り分包帯のロールを使えるうえ分包帯ロールの交換が容易であり而も占有面積が少なくて済む薬剤包装装置を実現する。【解決手段】分包帯供給機構30の設置側を高くして基板21を傾斜させる。また、シール機構53は横シール部も縦シール部も薬剤投入ホッパ52の下流に纏め、薬剤投入ホッパ52の上流には押え部材51を置く。さらに、分包帯8の送りを高速化しても可動ローラ36の移動が的確に規制されるよう、分包帯8のテンション調整を行う可動ローラ36の移動範囲にダンパー35を設ける。また、軽量化のためインクリボン送り機構カバー部60から本体部へ操作部を移設し、その操作に連動して施錠/解錠が行われるようにし、軽量化と視認可能化のためカバー部60の箱状部分を(半)透明な樹脂にする。【選択図】 図1
