A method for providing a singling device of a storage and dispensing container for drug portions is provided. A singling device is adapted to a specific drug portion based on the measurement of the drug portion. The measurement is obtained by generating at least one image of a to-be-measured drug portion by a detection device and using image analysis to process the at least one image. Drug information for the specific drug portion is determined, the drug information including at least the dimensions of the specific drug portion. Based on the determined drug information, a singling device fitting the drug portion to be singularized is identified and provided for use in the storage and dispensing container. A system for identifying a singling device is also provided.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing physical rewards from disbursed networked dispensers are disclosed. The systems and methods may involve at least one processor configured to: maintain and cause to be displayed a workflow table having rows, columns and cells; track a workflow milestone via a designated cell configured to maintain data indicating that the workflow milestone is reached; access a data structure storing a rule containing a condition associated with the designated cell and a conditional trigger associated with at least one dispenser; receive an input via the designated cell; compare the input with the condition to determine a match; and activate the conditional trigger to cause at least one dispensing signal to be transmitted over a network to the at least one dispenser to cause the at least one dispenser to dispense a physical item as a result of the milestone being reached.

A screw holding and dispensing device includes a casing, a number of elastic members latched on an inner sidewall of the casing, and a pressing member received by the elastic member. Each elastic member carries a screw, to release a screw, an external force is applied on the pressing member, the pressing member is driven to move out of the top elastic member, the pressing member moves down and drives out the lowermost screw from the bottom elastic member, and the screw slides into a corresponding screw hole.

Described herein are methods and systems for automated dispensing of individual medicament portions. The systems can include a housing that encloses a receiving space having a bottom surface. A separation device may be provided and arranged on the bottom surface with at least one channel to receive at least one medicament portion. At least one channel may have an opening facing the receiving space and an opening facing the bottom surface. The opening facing the bottom surface may be associated with a contact area on the bottom surface, over which contact area the medicament portions may be guided upon a movement of separation device. At least one recess may be arranged in the bottom surface outside of the contact area to receive contamination particles present in the container.

A number of variations may include a product comprising a carrousel cartridge comprising a bottom compartment; an inner case, wherein the inner case is rotatably attached to the bottom compartment and is constructed and arranged to accommodate at least one component; and a top compartment, wherein the top compartment and the bottom compartment are slideably attached together, and a carrousel cartridge dispenser comprising a housing; an indexing cam system, wherein the indexing cam system is disposed within the housing; and a dispenser trough, wherein the dispenser trough is attached to the housing.

The present invention relates to a dispensing device, a valve, a containing apparatus having same, a contents moving apparatus, and a contents apparatus, comprising a passing operation unit provided in the housing, for moving and guiding contents, wherein the passing operation unit comprises a contents passing means for moving the contents. Unlike conventional art, the present invention may secure a space for passing contents while preventing reception of contents, which exceeds a demand, by adjusting a passing space and a receiving space, stably induce passing of a demanded amount of contents within a predetermined range, and prevent remaining of contents more than necessary by limiting the space for receiving the contents, thereby enabling adjustment of the amount (number) of contents being received.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for extrapolating information display visualizations are disclosed. The systems and methods may involve maintaining a board with a plurality of items, each item defined by a row of cells, and wherein each cell is configured to contain data and is associated with a column heading; linking at least a first column to at least a second column so that a change in data in a cell of the at least first column causes a change in data of a cell in the at least second column; receiving a first selection of a particular item from the board, wherein the particular item includes a plurality of cells with data in each cell, and wherein data in a first cell of the plurality of cells is linked to data in a second cell of the plurality of cells; upon receipt of the first selection.

Methods and systems are provided for tracking and guiding a patient's clinically directed medication usage. Medicaments are placed in secure passive packaging that must be unlocked to enable dispensing of a dose or a set of doses. This packaging is designed to be difficult to open manually, and instead is designed to dispense only when used in combination with an unlocking device. The unlocking device is a separate device containing electronics, mechatronics or both, to unlock and dispense from the packaging and to track and guide usage. Together, the secure container and the unlocking device track medication usage, deter an excessive rate of patient usage, and deter unauthorized access to medication.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for remotely automating changes to third party applications from within a primary application are disclosed. The systems and methods may involve maintaining in the primary application, a table having rows, columns, and cells at intersections of the rows and columns, wherein the primary application is configured to enable the construction of automations defined by conditional rules for altering internal information in the primary application and external information in the third party applications; receiving an automation definition conditional on specific information input into at least one specific cell in the table of the primary application, wherein the automation definition is constructed using internal blocks and external blocks, the external blocks having links to the external third party applications; monitoring the at least one specific cell of the primary application for an occurrence of the specific information.

A dispenser apparatus for placement in an aircraft to eject an article into a selected external environment, the dispenser apparatus including a long open tray in the form of a bench ejector having a seat and a back, the bench having a primary end portion and an opposing secondary end portion, wherein the bench cradles the article, also included is an arm and finger on the secondary end portion that momentarily retains the article while a reciprocating beam on the primary end portion ejects the article from the bench in a rotating or spinning manner via the beam adding impact force to one side of the article while the arm and finger retain one side of the article to impart the spinning rotation to the article as it is ejected from the bench ejector.
