A measuring container comprises a storage container and a storage section selector. The storage container includes storage sections each capable of storing a predetermined number of tablets. The storage section selector is attached to the storage container and has a second path that allows the tablets to pass through from one end to an other end. The one end of the second path is connected to an outside, and the other end is selectively connected to one of the storage sections.

The present invention relates to a tablet dispenser. The tablet dispenser includes: an accommodation part provided with a plurality of cartridge accommodation compartments into which tablet cartridge assemblies configured to accommodate tablets therein and discharge the tablets and each provided with a discharge unit and a cartridge identification unit are inserted and mounted; a plurality of mounting detection units located in the respective cartridge accommodation compartments, and configured to detect the cartridge identification units of the tablet cartridge assemblies; a plurality of discharge driving units located in the respective cartridge accommodation compartments, and configured to drive the discharge units so that the tablets are discharged from the tablet cartridge assemblies; and a control unit connected to the mounting detection units and the discharge driving units, and configured to obtain information through the mounting detection units and control the discharge driving units.

Disclosed are image based counting systems and methods. Image based counting systems and methods employ one or more imaging devices (e.g., one or more color cameras) and one or more illumination devices (e.g., one or more illumination sources to provide variable and/or dynamic lighting). In some examples, the image based counting system provides illumination to a tray upon which one or more items (e.g., pills) are placed. The illuminated items are then imaged by the one or more imaging devices based on one or more imaging techniques or processes to determine and/or present information associated with one or more properties of the item.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of intelligent medical equipment, and in particular to an intelligent medication dispensing box, comprising an outer liner, wherein an inner liner is movably disposed inside the outer liner, and a plurality of medication chambers are movably disposed inside the inner liner; a bottom of the outer liner is provided with an inner liner base. The present disclosure replaces the high-cost servo system with the positioning magnets, positioning of the first Hall switch and the mechanism of the gear and the medication ejection rack to achieve accurate medication dispensing and rotation positioning, significantly reducing manufacturing costs and improving mechanical reliability. Sound and light alarm and button-free design are adopted to avoid maloperation, greatly reducing the threshold for use by elderly users. The split-type independent medication chambers support flexible replacement of different specifications and adapt to various medication needs.

Automatic packager for pharmaceuticals and method of operating the same. The method includes receiving a prescription to be filled by a pharmacy management system and identifying one or more bulk containers that contain medications to fill the prescription. The method also includes counting, using a pre-counter, medications from the one or more bulk containers to fill the prescription and depositing the counted medications in one or more cartridges. The method also includes placing the one or more cartridges including the counted medications at an automatic packager and dispensing the medications in the one or more cartridges. The method also includes packaging medications dispensed from the one or more cartridges into packages and verifying whether the medications are correctly packaged.

A pharmacy pill tray includes a viewing platform with a floor surface to support pills thereon, and a generally cylindrical-shaped transfer chamber. The transfer chamber includes a semi-cylinder trough with an open top extending along and below an edge of the floor surface and a semi-cylinder door secured to the trough to open and close the open top of the trough. The transfer chamber is configured to selectively receive at least some of the pills from the floor surface. The door includes a primary door portion pivotably secured to the trough, and a secondary door portion pivotably secured to the primary door portion. A dispensing spout extends from an open end of the trough for dispensing the pills from the trough. A transfer gate is movable between a blocking position which prevents dispensing the pills through the spout, and a dispensing position which permits dispensing the pills through the spout.
