PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an inexpensive winding roll support shaft 20 being a synthetic resin molded article.SOLUTION: The winding roll support shaft is used in a medicine packaging apparatus. On the external surface of the support shaft body 21, a standing/lying piece 22 in the axial direction is provided to be fixed on the support shaft base side. protrusions 23 and 23 on the external surface of the standing/lying piece 22 are locked to the side surface of a protruding strip 13 on the internal surface of a winding roll to prevent the winding roll 10 from idly turning to the support shaft 20. At the same time, another protrusion 24 on the external surface of the standing/lying piece 22 is fastened to the front end surface of the protruding strip 13 to prevent the winding roll 10 from being slipped off from the support shaft 20. During the rotation when unwinding the winding roll 10, the prevention of the slipping off is kept by the resilient force to the outside of the standing/lying piece 22. By the pulling-out force in the axial direction to the winding roll 10, the standing/lying piece 22 warps inward, and the fastening between the other protrusion 24 and the end surface of the protruding strip 13 is released, and the winding roll 10 can smoothly be replaced. In this case, the slopes 23a, 23a and 24a of the protrusions work as guides.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】合成樹脂成型品であって、安価な巻回ロール支持軸20とする。【解決手段】薬剤包装装置における巻回ロール支持軸である。その支持軸本体21外面に、その軸方向の起伏片22を支持軸基部側で固定して設け、その起伏片22外面の突起23、23’を巻回ロール内面の突条13側面に係止して支持軸20に対する巻回ロール10の空回りを防止するとともに、起伏片22外面の他の突起24を前記突条13の先端端面に係止して巻回ロール10の支持軸20からの抜け止めを行う。巻回ロール10繰り出し時における回転中は、起伏片22の外側への弾性力でもって抜け止めが維持され、巻回ロール10への軸方向の引き抜き力によって、起伏片22が内側に撓んで他の突起24と突条13端面の係止が解除されて、巻回ロール10を円滑に交換し得る。このとき、突起の傾斜面23a,23a’、24aがガイドとなる。【選択図】図6
