Abstract
【解決手段】搬送装置によって搬送される錠剤にインクジェット方式の印刷ヘッド装置を用いて印刷を行う錠剤印刷装置において、印刷ヘッド装置により印刷された錠剤を撮像する撮像装置と、撮像装置により撮像された画像に基づいて、錠剤が良品であるか不良品であるかを判断する検査処理部と、検査処理部により不良品であると判断された錠剤を搬送装置より回収する不良品回収装置と、不良品回収装置よりも錠剤の搬送方向において下流側に設けられるとともに、搬送装置の下方に設けられ、検査処理部により良品であると判断された錠剤を搬送装置より回収する良品回収装置と、良品回収装置の上方であって、搬送装置の下方に設けられる受け部材と、を有することを特徴とする。
【選択図】図1
Description
第1の実施形態について図1から図5を参照して説明する。なお、本明細書において「上」、「下」とは、鉛直方向における上、下を指す。また、本明細書において、搬送ベルト13aの「下面」は図1中の符号aとbの間、搬送ベルト21aの「上面」は符号cとdの間、「湾曲面」は符号dとeの間、「下面」は符号eとfの間の錠剤Tの搬送面を指す。搬送ベルト31aの「上面」は、図1中の符号gとhの間、「湾曲面」は符号hとiの間、「下面」は符号iとjの間の錠剤Tの搬送面を指す。
図1に示すように、第1の実施形態に係る錠剤印刷装置1は、供給装置10と、第1の印刷装置20と、第2の印刷装置30と、回収装置40と、制御装置50とを備えている。なお、第1の印刷装置20及び第2の印刷装置30は基本的に同じ構造である。
次に、前述の錠剤印刷装置1が行う印刷処理及び検査処理について説明する。
第2の実施形態について図6及び図7を参照して説明する。なお、第2の実施形態では、第1の実施形態との相違点(整流板の追加)について説明し、その他の説明を省略する。
前述の説明においては、各整流板14、14a、14bや各整流板27、27a、27b、28、整流板29、各整流板37、38は平板であることを例示したが、これに限るものではなく、例えば、湾曲形状の板であっても良い。
