Patent ID: 11060984

Abstract:
There are provided a dispensing inspection device and a dispensing inspection method that inspect drugs packaged in a packaging bag. The dispensing inspection device includes a transport passage that transports a packaging bag in which drugs are packaged, an imaging unit that images the drugs packaged in the packaging bag on the transport passage, a dispersion mechanism that disperses the drugs packaged in the packaging bag on the transport passage, and an inspection unit that inspects the drugs on the basis of an image of the drugs taken by the imaging unit. The dispersion mechanism includes: a column that is positioned on a side of a second surface of the packaging bag and is disposed in a direction crossing the packaging bag; a first pressing member that is positioned on a side of a first surface of the packaging bag, is disposed on an upstream side of the column in a transport direction, and presses the first surface of the packaging bag; and a second pressing member that is disposed on a downstream side of the column in the transport direction and presses the first surface of the packaging bag. The first and second pressing members are independently movable in a direction opposite to a pressing direction, relative positions of the column, the first pressing member, and the second pressing member are fixed, and the dispersion mechanism and the packaging bag are movable relative to each other in the transport direction.
