Title:
TABLET FEEDER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/097600
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A tablet feeder comprises a tablet storage section (4) capable of storing a number of tablets (A), a tablet arranging disk (8) disposed in the tablet storage section (4) and adapted to successively hold the tablets (A) in pockets (11) formed in the outer periphery and discharge them at a discharge position by rotational driving, and a partition member (13) which effects partitioning by using a partition section (14) of brush-like shape in such a manner that the upper tablets (A) in the upper region will not fall into the pockets (11) in the lower region so as to ensure that the tablets (A) stored in the pockets (11) of the tablet arranging disk (8) will be discharged a predetermined number each time. In this tablet feeder, at least partial brush elements (15a) in the brush elements (15a, 15b) constituting the partition section (14) of the partition member (13) are bent at the front end into U-shape. Thereby, deformation of the brush elements (15a) constituting the partition member can be reliably prevented.
