[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a partition plate that is attached to a shelf plate on which medicines are placed and separates the storage positions of the medicines. The present disclosure also relates to a partition device including a partition plate and a shelf plate, and a shelf plate device including a partition device and a support post. In this disclosure, medicine refers to press-through packs (hereinafter referred to as PTPs), medicine packaging paper, injection bottles, plastic containers containing medicine, patches, boxes containing medicine, and the like. [Background technology]

[0002] Patent Document 1, which is a conventional technique, discloses a storage fixture 10 having a partition structure 30A that allows the storage space for storing medicines such as PTPs to be changed. As shown in FIG. 1 of Patent Document 1, a storage fixture 10 includes a vertical support 12, a back panel 13, a shelf member 17, and a drawer unit.

[0003] As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 of Patent Document 1, a partition structure 30A is composed of a slide rail 40A and a partition plate 60A. The partition structure 30A is held by the shelf bracket 14.

[0004] The slide rail 40A has a front wall portion 41A, a bottom wall portion 42A, and a rear wall portion 43A, and is formed with a substantially U-shaped cross section. A U-shaped guide portion 46A is provided on the front wall portion 41A, and a guided portion 62A is provided on the front end portion of the partition plate 60A.

[0005] The guide portion 46A and the guided portion 62A are engaged with each other so as to mesh with each other, restricting movement of the partition plate 60A in the front-rear direction and allowing movement of the partition plate 60A along the left-right direction. The guided portion 62A is a member that extends in the left-right direction and has a predetermined width. The guided portion 62A of this predetermined width engages with the guide portion 46A to prevent the partition plate 60A from falling over. By moving the partition plate 60A in the left-right direction, the size of the storage space for storing PTPs and the like can be changed.

[0006] The partition plate 60A is provided with a notch 61Ac cut out in the shape of a right triangle at a portion corresponding to the rear wall portion 43A. The cutout 61Ac fits into the rear wall 43A to form an odd-number storage space 31A surrounded by the front wall 41A, the bottom wall 42A, the rear wall 43A, and the partition plate 60A. In this way, in Patent Document 1, the fractional PTPs are stored in the fractional storage space 31A. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

The other end (left side) of the partition device 120 is held by a left shelf holder 26 arranged on the other (here, left support column 4) of the two support columns (right support column 3 and left support column 4).

[0020] The leg support 6 prevents the shelf board body 2 from falling over, and is connected to the shelf board body 2 at the underside thereof. The leg support 6 has a right leg support 6A, a central leg support 6B, and a left leg support 6C, and the right leg support 6A, the central leg support 6B, and the left leg support 6C are connected to form a U-shape. As shown in Figure 4, the right support column 3 and the right leg support column 6A are connected to form an L shape, and the left support column 4 and the left leg support column 6C are also connected to form an L shape.

[0021] Although the number of partition devices 120 and the number of partition plates 130 are plural, the number of partition devices 120 and the number of partition plates 130 are not limited, and may be one. Next, each component will be described in detail.

[0022] (Partition device) FIG. 5 is a schematic perspective view of the partition device 120 in the first embodiment, and FIG. 6 is a schematic exploded perspective view of the partition device 120 in the first embodiment. As shown in Figures 5-6, the partition device 120 comprises a shelf board 21, a plurality of partition boards 130 arranged in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction) of the shelf board 21, and two shelf support portions (right-side shelf support portion 25 and left-side shelf support portion 26).

[0023] One of the two shelf support portions (in Figure 5, the right shelf support portion 25) holds one end of the shelf board 21 (in Figure 5, the right side), and the other of the two shelf support portions (in Figure 5, the left shelf support portion 26) holds the other end of the shelf board 21 (in Figure 5, the left side).

[0024] FIG. 7 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the right support column 3 and the right shelf support portion 25 in the first embodiment. For ease of viewing, the right shelf support portion 25 and the front panel 24 are not hatched. The right support pillar 3 has an upper elongated hole 110 and a lower elongated hole 111 on the front side. The right shelf support portion 25 has an upper engaging portion 28 and a lower engaging portion 29 on the rear side. The upper elongated hole 110 engages with the upper engaging portion 28 , and the lower elongated hole 111 engages with the lower engaging portion 29 , so that the right shelf receiving portion 25 is held by the right support column 3 .

[0025] Like the right support column 3, the left support column 4 also has an upper elongated hole 110 and a lower elongated hole 111 on the front side. Like the right support column 25, the left shelf holder 26 also has an upper engagement portion 28 and a lower engagement portion 29 on the rear side. The upper elongated hole 110 of the left support column 4 engages with the upper engagement portion 28 of the left shelf support portion 26, and the lower elongated hole 111 of the left support column 4 engages with the lower engagement portion 29 of the left shelf support portion 26, so that the left shelf support portion 26 is held by the left support column 4. As described above, the partition device 120 is attached to the shelf board body 2. The partition device 120 can be easily removed from the shelf board body 2 by lifting the partition device 120 upward and moving it to the front.

[0026] As will be described in more detail later, as shown in FIG. 5, the shelf board 21 has a front recessed groove 162 and a rear rail 166, and the rear rail 166 has a rear rail protrusion 167. The partition plate 130 has a fixing portion 143 on the rear side, and the fixing portion 143 has a fixing portion recess 144 . The fixing portion recess 144 and the rear rail protrusion 167 are fitted together to form the PTP accommodating portion 23 that accommodates the PTP 80. Furthermore, the fixing portion recess 144 and the rear rail protrusion 167 are fitted together, so that the partition plate 130 can be maintained perpendicular to the shelf plate 21.

[0027] The partition plate 130 has a protruding portion 133 that protrudes downward from the front side. The contact between the protruding portion 133 and the front recessed groove 162 forms a fractional part accommodating portion 22 for accommodating a fractional part of the PTP 80.

[0028] Furthermore, the partition device 120 can be moved to any position in the vertical direction of the shelf body 2 by changing the position at which the upper long hole 110 engages with the upper engagement portion 28 and the position at which the lower long hole 111 engages with the lower engagement portion 29.

[0029] Moreover, the partition device 120 can be easily attached to the shelf body 2 of another shelf device 1. Furthermore, the partition device 120 may be composed of a shelf board 21 and multiple partition boards 130 arranged in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction) of the shelf board 21, excluding the two shelf support portions (right-side shelf support portion 25 and left-side shelf support portion 26). In this case, the partition device 120 can be easily attached to the shelf 21 of another shelf device 1.

[0030] (Partition plate) Figure 8 is a diagram showing an outline of the partition plate 130 in embodiment 1, where (a) is a schematic front view of the partition plate, (b) is a schematic right side view of the partition plate, and (c) is a schematic AA cross-sectional view of the partition plate, and Figure 9 is a schematic oblique view of the partition plate 130 in embodiment 1.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 8, the partition board 130 is attached to the shelf board 21 on which the PTPs 80 are placed, and is used to separate the PTPs 80, and is in the form of a plate. The partition plate 130 includes a partition plate body 131 , a protruding portion 133 , a partition plate protrusion 138 , and a fixing portion 143 .

[0032] The partition plate body 131 has an upper surface 51, a right side surface 52R, a left side surface 52L, a front surface 54 (inclined surface 54), a bottom surface 53, and a rear surface 55. As shown in Figures 1 and 8, based on the state in which the partition board 130 is attached to the shelf board 21, the top surface 51 side is defined as the upper side, the bottom surface 53 side as the lower side, the front surface 54 side as the front side, and the back surface 55 side as the rear side.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 8( a ), the first imaginary line 93 is a horizontal line extending from the bottom surface 53 of the partition plate main body 131 to the front side. The protruding portion 133 is a member that protrudes downward from the first imaginary line 93. In other words, the protruding portion 133 is a member that protrudes downward from the partition plate main body 131. The protruding portion 133 has a first protruding portion 134 , a second protruding portion 135 , and a third protruding portion 136 . The first protruding portion 134 is an inclined surface that increases in height toward the front. That is, the angle formed between the bottom surface 53 (first imaginary line 93) and the first protruding portion 134 (clockwise angle starting from the first imaginary line 93) is an acute angle. The second protruding portion 135 is a surface parallel to the bottom surface 53 . The third protruding portion 136 is an inclined surface that increases in height toward the rear. That is, the angle formed between the bottom surface 53 and the third protruding portion 136 (the angle measured clockwise from the bottom surface 53) is an obtuse angle.

[0034] The upper right diagram in FIG. 9 is a schematic perspective view of the fixing portion 143 and the partition plate protrusion 138, and the lower right diagram in FIG. 9 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the fixing portion 143 and the partition plate protrusion 138. As shown in FIGS. 8( a ) and 9 , the partition plate 130 has a fixing portion 143 and a partition plate protrusion 138 on the lower side of the rear surface 55 side of the partition plate main body 131 .

[0035] The second imaginary line 94 in the lower right drawing of FIG. 9 is a horizontal line extending rearward from the bottom surface 53 of the partition plate main body 131. The partition plate protrusion 138 is a member that protrudes downward from the second imaginary line 94. In other words, the partition plate protrusion 138 is a member that protrudes downward from the partition plate main body 131. As shown in FIG. 9, the partition plate protrusion 138 has a predetermined width, which is, for example, 20 mm.

[0036] The fixing portion 143 is a U-shaped member and is disposed above the second imaginary line 94 . As shown in FIGS. 8B and 9, the fixing portion 143 has the same width as the partition plate protrusion 138.

[0037] The fixing portion 143 has a fixing portion recess 144 inside the fixing portion 143 , and the fixing portion recess 144 has a fixing portion protrusion 149 . The fixing portion recess 144 has a first fixing portion recess 145, a second fixing portion recess 146, and a third fixing portion recess 147. The first fixing portion recess 145 is a surface perpendicular to the bottom surface 53 . The second fixing portion recess 146 is a surface parallel to the bottom surface 53 . The third fixing portion recess 147 is a surface perpendicular to the bottom surface 53 . The third fixing portion recess 147 has a fixing portion protrusion 149 at the lower end thereof, which is parallel to the bottom surface 53 . The thickness (width) of the fixing portion 143 is greater than the thickness of the partition plate main body 131, and the predetermined width is, for example, 20 mm.

[0038] The partition plate protrusion 138 is disposed contiguous to the front side of the fixed portion 143. In other words, the partition plate protrusion 138 is a portion disposed on the front side of the first fixed portion recess 145. The partition plate protrusion 138 has a first partition plate protrusion 139, a second partition plate protrusion 140, and a third partition plate protrusion 141. The first partition plate protrusion 139 is an inclined surface that increases in height toward the front. That is, the angle formed between the bottom surface 53 (second imaginary line 94) and the first partition plate protrusion 139 (clockwise angle starting from the second imaginary line 94) is an acute angle. The second partition plate protrusion 140 is a surface parallel to the bottom surface 53 . The third partition plate protrusion 141 is a surface perpendicular to the bottom surface 53 .

[0039] The partition plate body 131 has a front surface 54 that is an inclined surface 54 . The height of the inclined surface 54 decreases toward the front. The inclined surface 54 makes it easier for a person's hand to enter the PTP storage portion 23 and to grasp the PTP 80 from the PTP storage portion 23 with the hand.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 8(a), the partition plate body 131 has a partition body edge 56 on the outer periphery. 8(c), the thickness of the partition body edge 56 is thicker than the thickness of the partition plate body 131. For example, the thickness of the partition body edge 56 is 4 mm, and the thickness of the partition plate body 131 is 2 mm. According to the above embodiment, the thickness of the partition body edge 56 is increased to maintain the rigidity of the partition body 131, while the thickness of the partition body 131 is decreased, thereby reducing the weight of the partition body 131.

[0041] (Shelf) FIG. 10 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the partition board 130 and the shelf board 21, showing a state in which the partition board 130 is attached to the shelf board 21 in the first embodiment. For ease of viewing, the partition plate 130 is not hatched. The shelf board 21 is used to store PTPs 80 and fractional PTPs 80, and is made by bending a metal plate. As shown in FIG. 10, the shelf board 21 has a shelf board body 161 , a front groove 162 , a rear groove 173 , and a rear rail 166 . The shelf board body 161 is plate-shaped and accommodates the PTP 80.

[0042] In FIG. 10, a third imaginary line 95 and a fourth imaginary line 96 extending from the shelf board body 161 are drawn. The front recessed groove 162 is a groove that protrudes downward from the third imaginary line 95 (shelf board main body 161) and is used to accommodate a fraction of the PTP 80. The front groove 162 has a first front groove 163 , a second front groove 164 , and a third front groove 165 . The first front groove 163 has an inclined surface that increases in height toward the front. The inclination angle of the first front groove 163 is the same as the inclination angle of the first protruding portion 134. The second front recessed groove 164 is a surface parallel to the shelf board body 161. The third front groove 165 has an inclined surface that increases in height toward the rear. The inclination angle of the third front groove 165 is the same as the inclination angle of the third protruding portion 136.

[0043] The rear recessed groove 173 is a groove that protrudes downward from the fourth imaginary line 96 . The rear groove 173 is located on the rear side of the shelf board body 161 and has a first rear groove 174 , a second rear groove 175 , and a third rear groove 176 . The first rear groove 174 has an inclined surface that increases in height toward the front. The inclination angle of the first rear groove 174 is the same as the inclination angle of the first partition plate protrusion 139. The second rear recessed groove 175 is a horizontal surface parallel to the shelf board body 161. The third rear recessed groove 176 is a surface perpendicular to the shelf board body 161.

[0044] The rear rail 166 is located on the rear side of the rear groove 173 and is a component that protrudes upward from the fourth imaginary line 96 (shelf board main body 161), and has a rear rail protrusion 167 and a fourth rear rail protrusion 171. The rear rail protrusion 167 has a first rear rail protrusion 168 , a second rear rail protrusion 169 , and a third rear rail protrusion 170 . The first rear rail protrusion 168 is a surface perpendicular to the shelf board body 161. The second rear rail protrusion 169 is a surface parallel to the shelf board body 161. The third rear rail protrusion 170 is a surface perpendicular to the shelf board body 161. Fourth rear rail protrusion 171 is a surface parallel to shelf body 161, one end of which is connected to the end of third rear rail protrusion 170. Because fourth rear rail protrusion 171 faces toward rear groove 173, the structure is such that a user is less likely to get injured even if they touch rear rail 166 with their hand. In the above embodiment, the rear rail 166 (rear rail protrusion 167) protrudes upward from the fourth imaginary line 96 (shelf board main body 161), but the rear rail 166 (rear rail protrusion 167) may be at the same height as the fourth imaginary line 96 (shelf board main body 161). In this case, the fixing portion recess 144 has a shape that fits with the rear rail 166 (rear rail protrusion 167).

[0045] (Shelf support part) 6-7, based on the state in which the right shelf support portion 25 is attached to the right support column 3, the right shelf support portion 25 has an upper engagement portion 28 and a lower engagement portion 29 on its rear side. In addition, the right shelf support portion 25 has an upper holding portion 113 and a lower holding portion 114 on its lower side. In the right shelf holder 25, the lower holding portion 114 is positioned away from the upper holding portion 113 and is provided below and in front of the upper holding portion 113. 5-6 , the upper holding portion 113 comes into contact with the shelf body 161 of the shelf 21, and the lower holding portion 114 comes into contact with the front groove 162 of the shelf 21. As a result, one end (right side) of the shelf 21 is held by the right shelf support portion 25. The left shelf support portion 26 has the same configuration as the right shelf support portion 25. Therefore, the other end (left side) of the shelf board 21 is held by the left shelf support portion 26.

[0046] (Relative position of the divider and shelf) As shown in FIG. 10, the partition plate 130 is attached to the shelf plate 21, and the partition plate 130 stands perpendicular to the shelf plate 21. A front panel 24 for holding labels with names of medicines or the like is provided on the front side of the shelf board 21.

[0047] The protruding portion 133 and the front recessed groove 162 come into contact with each other, the partition plate protrusion 138 and the rear recessed groove 173 fit together, and the fixing portion recess 144 and the rear rail 166 fit together. Specifically, the first protrusion 134, the second protrusion 135, and the third protrusion 136 of the protrusion 133 are in contact with the first front groove 163, the second front groove 164, and the third front groove 165 of the front groove 162, respectively.

[0048] Similarly, the first partition plate protrusion 139, the second partition plate protrusion 140, and the third partition plate protrusion 141 of the partition plate protrusion 138 are in contact with the first rear groove 174, the second rear groove 175, and the third rear groove 176 of the rear groove 173, respectively.

[0049] Similarly, the first fixed portion recess 145, the second fixed portion recess 146, and the third fixed portion recess 147 of the fixed portion recess 144 are in contact with the first rear rail protrusion 168, the second rear rail protrusion 169, and the third rear rail protrusion 170 of the rear rail protrusion 167, respectively. As a result, the partition board 130 stands perpendicular to the shelf board 21, and can separate the PTPs 80.

[0050] 5, partition plate protrusion 138 having a predetermined width fits into rear recessed groove 173, and fixing portion recess 144 having a predetermined width fits into rear rail 166 (rear rail protrusion 167), stably standing partition plate 130. By sliding partition plate 130 left and right, partition plate 130 can be moved to any position. The fixing portion protrusion 149 strengthens the fit between the fixing portion recess 144 and the rear rail protrusion 167 (FIGS. 8-10).

[0051] As shown in FIG. 5, the area surrounded by the two partition plates 130 and the shelf board main body 161 becomes the PTP storage section 23. Partition plate protrusion 138 having a predetermined width and fixing portion recess 144 having a predetermined width are located on the rear side of partition plate 130. Therefore, when PTP 80 is removed from shelf board 21, partition plate protrusion 138 and fixing portion recess 144 do not come into contact with PTP 80, and PTP 80 can be removed smoothly.

[0052] The area surrounded by the two protruding portions 133 and the front recessed groove 162 becomes the fractional part accommodating portion 22. The second front recessed groove 164, which is the bottom surface of the fractional part accommodating section 22, is located lower than the PTP accommodating section 23 (shelf board main body 161). Here, the PTP storage section 23 and the fraction storage section 22 are collectively defined as one section. In other words, one section is a section in which the shelf board body 161 and the front recessed groove 162 are separated by two partition plates 130. Either one or both of the two partition plates 130 can be slid longitudinally (left and right) while attached to the fixing portion 143, thereby changing the longitudinal (left and right) position of the partition plate 130 on the shelf board 21, thereby freely changing the longitudinal width of one section. According to the above embodiment, the width of each compartment in the longitudinal direction can be freely changed, and therefore the area of ​​each compartment can be freely adjusted depending on the amount of medicine. Furthermore, when the PTP 80 arranged on the rear side of the fractional part storage section 22 is pulled out from the PTP storage section 23 (shelf board main body 161), the PTP 80 passes over the fractional part of the PTP 80, allowing the PTP 80 to be pulled out smoothly.

[0053] (How to install the partition plate) A method for attaching the partition board 130 to the shelf board 21 will now be described. First, the user lifts the partition plate 130 by hand while tilting it so that the fixing portion 143 (fixing portion recess 144) of the partition plate 130 is slightly downward. Next, the partition plate 130's fixing portion recess 144 is inserted into the rear rail protrusion 167, while the partition plate protrusion 138 is fitted into the rear recessed groove 173 (FIGS. 5, 9, and 10). At this time, the front protrusion 133 of the partition plate 130 is positioned slightly away from and above the front recessed groove 162. Finally, the front side of the partition plate 130 is pushed into the front groove 162 so that the protruding portion 133 comes into contact with the front groove 162 . In this way, the partition board 130 is attached to the shelf board 21.
