摘要：
This invention relates to modifications to the traditional manually operated pill counting tray that is broadly used throughout the world to provide features that permit semi-automatic operation that is faster and more accurate than manual-only operation when counting pharmaceutical pills. The tray modifications are based on electronic weight-based sensing technology including the addition of (1) a weighing load sensor to determine the weight of the pills to be counted, (2) a microprocessor that can convert the measured weight of the pills to a pill count, and (3) an output display to show the number of pills counted. This apparatus includes novel features to improve pill counting speed and accuracy that are only possible when employing electronic counting.
