- Fig. 1 is a view showing peripheral portions of a roll body 1 in a medicine packaging device including a packaging material end detection mechanism.
- the roll body 1 is constituted by winding a packaging material 12 that is an elongated sheet material around a core member 11.
- the medicine packaging device that is a sheet-using device is used by withdrawing the packaging material 12 from the roll body 1.
- the medicine packaging device is used for packaging solid medicine.
- the medicine packaging device includes: a holding unit 2 configured to hold the roll body 1 so as to allow the packaging material 12 to be withdrawn; a hopper 4 configured to put medicine into the packaging material 12 withdrawn from the roll body 1 held by the holding unit 2; a sealing unit 5 configured to seal the medicine put into the packaging material 12 via the hopper 4 within the packaging material 12; and a control unit 7 configured to control the sealing unit 5.
- the holding unit 2 has a shaft 21.
- the shaft 21 is provided rotatably about the axis of the shaft 21.
- the core member 11 of the roll body 1 is externally fitted to the shaft 21 of the holding unit 2.
- a half folding mechanism 3 is provided between the holding unit 2 and the hopper 4.
- the half folding mechanism 3 folds the packaging material 12 withdrawn from the roll body 1 in half in the width direction. As shown in Fig. 1 , the hopper 4 is inserted into the half-folded portion of the packaging material 12.
- Fig. 2A and Fig. 2B are views for explaining the roll body 1, where Fig. 2A is a perspective view showing the appearance of the roll body 1, and Fig. 2B is an enlarged perspective view showing a main part of the radial cross section of the roll body 1.
- Fig. 2C is a schematic sectional view showing the configuration of the roll body 1.
- the roll body 1 includes the core member 11 and the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11.
- the core member 11 is tubular and is cylindrical in this embodiment.
- the core member 11 of this embodiment is made of resin.
- the material of the core member 11 is not limited to resin.
- the core member 11 can be formed using various materials as long as it can be formed to have shape retention properties that allow the packaging material 12 to be wound therearound.
- the core member 11 has a light passing part through which light passes so as to enable optical reading by a reader 6, which will be described below, from inside to outside.
- a through window 111 serving as the light passing part is formed in the core member 11.
- the through window 111 is a through hole passing through the core member 11 in a direction intersecting the axis of the core member 11.
- the through window 111 is formed to pass through the core member 11 in the inward-outward direction, that is, in the radial direction of the core member 11. Accordingly, the light passing part can be formed regardless of the material or the like of the core member 11.
- the through window 111 is, for example, rectangular or square, as viewed in the radial direction.
- the through window 111 be formed to be as small as possible as compared with the total area of the inner surface 112 of the core member 11 (see Fig. 2B ).
- the influence of the through window 111 on the packaging material 12 can be reduced by reducing the area of the through window 111.
- the occurrence of recesses in a portion corresponding to the through window 111 in the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 can be reduced by the degree of the reduction in area of the through window 111. Therefore, the occurrence of wrinkles or traces of the through window 111 in the packaging material 12 can be reduced.
- the through window 111 of this embodiment needs to have a larger area than a packaging material information part 14, which will be described below, as a sheet material information part so that the packaging material information part 14 is not hidden by the core member 11.
- the packaging material information part 14 indicating information on the packaging material 12 is formed.
- the information on the packaging material 12 include the type of the packaging material 12 (such as material and thickness).
- examples of the information on the packaging material 12 include information on traceability, such as information on the production lot number and factory of the packaging material 12.
- the packaging material information part 14 is optically readable.
- the light used for optically reading the packaging material information part 14 is not limited to visible light and may be infrared rays or ultraviolet rays, for example.
- the packaging material information part 14 is formed by printing.
- the packaging material information part 14 physically (optically or visually) integrates a plurality of elements into one.
- the packaging material information part 14 indicates the information on the packaging material 12 by the entirety of the packaging material information part 14 (that is, a unit of the plurality of elements). In other words, the packaging material information part 14 cannot indicate the information on the packaging material 12 if a part of the packaging material information part 14 (that is, one or more of the plurality of elements) is missing.
- the packaging material information part 14 is formed by coding the information on the packaging material 12. In this embodiment, a two-dimensional code ("QR code" which is a registered trademark in Japan) is used as the packaging material information part 14. Accordingly, a general-purpose device can be used as the reader 6, which will be described below.
- the packaging material information part 14 is held at an end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 at a position corresponding to the through window 111.
- the packaging material information part 14 is formed at the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 in the portion corresponding to the through window 111.
- the packaging material information part 14 is formed directly on the inner surface of the packaging material 12. Since the packaging material information part 14 is formed on the inner surface of the packaging material 12, the packaging material information part 14 is reliably read from the inside of the core member 11, even if the packaging material 12 is not transparent. Further, since the packaging material information part 14 is formed directly on the packaging material 12, the production cost can be reduced as compared with the case where a member for forming the packaging material information part 14 is separately provided.
- the packaging material 12 is first wound around the core member 11 when producing the roll body 1. Thereafter, the packaging material information part 14 is formed by printing. At this time, the packaging material information part 14 is formed at the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 at the position corresponding to the through window 111. In other words, the packaging material information part 14 is formed at the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 in the portion corresponding to the through window 111.
- the method for producing the roll body 1 by these steps can facilitate the operation of winding the packaging material 12 around the core member 11.
- the packaging material information part 14 is formed on the packaging material 12 in advance and the packaging material 12 is then wound around the core member 11, it is necessary to align the packaging material information part 14 with the through window 111 of the core member 11.
- the method for producing the roll body 1 of this embodiment does not need to align the packaging material information part 14 with the through window 111 of the core member 11 and thus can facilitate the operation of winding the packaging material 12 around the core member 11.
- the packaging material information part 14 is first formed on the packaging material 12 by printing when producing the roll body 1. Thereafter, the packaging material 12 is wound around the core member 11 so that the packaging material information part 14 is held at the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 at the position corresponding to the through window 111.
- the method for producing the roll body 1 by these steps can facilitate the operation of forming the packaging material information part 14 on the packaging material 12, as compared with the case where the packaging material information part 14 is formed on the inner surface of the packaging material 12 after the packaging material 12 is wound around the core member 11.
- the step of forming the packaging material information part 14 on the packaging material 12 can be performed as a step before or after the step of winding the packaging material 12 around the core member 11.
- Fig. 3 is a schematic perspective view showing the relationship between the roll body 1 and the holding unit 2. Though not shown in the figure, an engaged part is provided in the core member 11, and an engaging part configured to engage the engaged part of the core member 11 is provided in the shaft 21 of the holding unit 2. When the core member 11 of the roll body 1 is externally fitted to the shaft 21, the engaging part of the shaft 21 engages the engaged part of the core member 11. Accordingly, the core member 11 rotates together with the shaft 21.
- the reader 6 configured to optically read the packaging material information part 14 of the roll body 1 held by the holding unit 2 is provided in the shaft 21 of the holding unit 2.
- the reader 6 is arranged inside the core member 11 of the roll body 1 held by the holding unit 2 and is provided so as to correspond to the packaging material information part 14 of the roll body 1.
- the reader 6 is connected to a detection unit 8 configured to detect that the packaging material 12 is used up.
- the control unit 7 and the detection unit 8 are integrally provided.
- the control unit 7 and the detection unit 8 can be provided separately from each other.
- the reader 6 reads the packaging material information part 14 of the roll body 1.
- the control unit 7 sets the temperature of thermocompression bonding by the sealing unit 5 based on the results of reading by the reader 6.
- the packaging material 12 is withdrawn from the roll body 1 and is folded in half by the half folding mechanism 3 in the case where the half folding mechanism 3 is provided.
- Medicine is put into the half-folded portion of the packaging material 12 via the hopper 4.
- the medicine is sealed within the packaging material 12 by the sealing unit 5.
- the sealing unit 5 performs thermocompression bonding of the packaging material 12 at the temperature of thermocompression bonding set by the control unit 7.
- the medicine packaging device repeats the aforementioned operations of putting and sealing of the medicine while withdrawing the packaging material 12 from the roll body 1.
- Fig. 4 is a schematic perspective view showing the packaging material 12 taken away from the core member 11.
- the packaging material 12 is withdrawn from the roll body 1, the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 is also withdrawn finally.
- the packaging material information part 14 is displaced from the position corresponding to the through window 111 of the core member 11. Therefore, the reader 6 cannot read the packaging material information part 14 anymore.
- the detection unit 8 detects that the packaging material 12 is used up by the fact that the reader 6 cannot read the packaging material information part 14.
- the packaging material end detection mechanism that is a sheet material end detection mechanism is constituted by the roll body 1, the holding unit 2, the packaging material information part 14, the reader 6, and the detection unit 8.
- the packaging material information part 14 is held at the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 at the position corresponding to the through window 111.
- the reader 6 is provided so as to correspond to the packaging material information part 14. Accordingly, the reader 6 can read the packaging material information part 14 until immediately before the packaging material 12 is used up. Then, the control unit 7 can suitably control the sealing unit 5.
- the packaging material information part 14 is displaced from the position corresponding to the through window 111. Then, the reader 6 cannot read the packaging material information part 14 anymore.
- the detection unit 8 is configured to detect that the packaging material 12 is present when a read signal of the packaging material information part 14 read by the reader 6 is received and that the packaging material 12 is used up when the read signal disappears, during the withdrawing action to withdraw the packaging material 12 from the roll body 1 held by the holding unit 2.
- the detection unit 8 can detect that the packaging material 12 is used up by the fact that the reader 6 cannot read the packaging material information part 14. Accordingly, there is no need to provide a mechanical configuration (such as the "paper end detection pin" according to Patent Literature 1) for detecting that the packaging material 12 is used up. Therefore, parts where malfunction may possibly occur can be reduced, and therefore a packaging material end detection mechanism in which malfunction is less likely to occur can be provided.
- Fig. 5 is a schematic sectional view showing the configuration of the roll body 1.
- the packaging material information part 14 is directly held at the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11.
- the packaging material information part 14 is indirectly held at the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11 via a seal 13.
- the roll body 1 includes: the core member 11; the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11; and the seal 13 located between the outer surface of the core member 11 and the inner surface of the packaging material 12 and serving as a forming part used for forming the packaging material information part 14.
- the seal 13 is attached (by adhesion, sticking, or the like) to the end of the packaging material 12 wound around the core member 11.
- the packaging material information part 14 is formed on the seal 13 configured as above.
- the seal 13 is attached to the packaging material 12, and the packaging material information part 14 is formed on the seal 13. Accordingly, there is no restriction on the material or the like of the packaging material 12 when forming the packaging material information part 14 on the packaging material 12.
- a material or the like capable of reliably forming the packaging material information part 14 can be selected.
- the roll body 1 may be constituted by winding the packaging material 12 that has been folded in half in advance around the core member 11. In this case, the half folding mechanism 3 provided between the holding unit 2 and the hopper 4 in the aforementioned embodiments is not needed.

- the packaging material information part 14 is formed in a portion corresponding to the through window 111 in the mounting part 12b. As the packaging material 12 is withdrawn from the roll body 1, the mounting part 12b is also withdrawn finally, and the packaging material information part 14 formed on the mounting part 12b is displaced from the position corresponding to the through window 111 of the core member 11.
- the packaging material 12 has the packaging material body 12a and the mounting part 12b attached to the winding start portion of the packaging material body 12b, and the packaging material information part 14 is formed on the mounting part 12b.
