As shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B, and 2, the mounting substrate 144 is attached in the electronic component housing portion 160. As shown in FIG. For example, a glass epoxy resin or the like is used as the material of the mounting substrate 144.

As shown in FIG. 1A, FIG. 1B, and FIG. 2, the connection wiring 150 is provided on the upper surface of the sensing plate 110. The connection wiring 150 electrically connects the data storage IC 141 and the acceleration sensor 130.

Thereby, when the convex accommodating part 211 is pressed toward the thin foil sheet 220, a part of outer peripheral part of the opening part 212 of the accommodating part 211 is hold | maintained in the shaded area | region of FIG. For this reason, the area | region corresponding to the opening part 212 of the thin foil sheet 220 can be opened by the press of the convex accommodating part 211 in the stable state. As a result, the tablet 300 can be taken out from the storage unit 211 in a more stable state.

The external configuration of the detection device 100 has been described above.

Next, the electric circuit configuration of the detection apparatus 100 will be described. FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the detection apparatus 100.

As shown in FIG. 4, the detection apparatus 100 includes a vibration detection circuit 191, a storage circuit 192, a battery 193, a power supply circuit 194, a communication circuit 195, and a control circuit 196.

As shown in FIG. 4, the vibration detection circuit 191 is electrically connected to the control circuit 169. The vibration detection circuit 191 detects the vibration of the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 constituting the holding unit. The vibration detection circuit 191 includes an acceleration sensor 130.

As shown in FIG. 4, the storage circuit 192 is connected to the control circuit 196. The storage circuit 192 accumulates the detection results acquired by the vibration detection circuit 191. Note that the memory circuit 192 includes a data storage IC 141.

As shown in FIG. 4, the battery 193 is electrically connected to the power supply circuit 194. The battery 193 supplies power to various electronic components such as a vibration detection circuit 191, a storage circuit 192, a power supply circuit 194, and a control circuit 196. Note that the battery 193 corresponds to the battery 143.

As shown in FIG. 4, the power supply circuit 194 is connected to the battery 193 and the control circuit 196. The power supply circuit 194 supplies power to the battery 193 according to the control of the control unit 196.

As shown in FIG. 4, the communication circuit 195 is electrically connected to the control circuit 196. The communication circuit 195 transmits the detection result detected by the acceleration sensor 130 included in the vibration detection circuit 191 to the outside of the detection device 100.

The electrical circuit configuration of the detection device 100 has been described above.

Next, the operation of the detection apparatus 100 will be described.

First, the PTP sheet sheet 200 is attached to the detection device 100. FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining a process of attaching the PTP sheet 200 to the detection device 100.

As shown in FIG. 5, first, the holding plate 120 is rotated around the hinge 170 in the direction α1 away from the sensing plate 110. Thereby, the upper surface of the sensing plate 110 is opened.

Next, the PTP sheet 200 is attached on the upper surface of the sensing plate 110. At this time, it sets so that the tablet taking-out surface 201 of the PTP sheet sheet 200 and the upper surface of the sensing plate 110 may face each other. Further, the PTP sheet 200 is set so as to be disposed in the area inside the four positioning protrusions 113. Thereby, the PTP sheet 200 can be easily attached to an accurate position on the upper surface of the sensing plate 110.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the holding plate 120 is rotated about the hinge 170 in the direction α2 approaching the sensing plate 110. Then, one end of the holding plate 120 is locked to the hook 180. Thereby, the PTP sheet 200 can be held in a state where the PTP sheet 200 is sandwiched between the sensing plate 110 and the holding plate 120.

Next, by operating the power supply circuit 194, the power supply 193 is supplied to each circuit such as the vibration detection circuit 191. Thereby, in particular, the vibration detection circuit 191 is in a state where it can detect the vibration of the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 constituting the holding unit.

Next, the user of the detection device 100 takes out the tablet 300 from the storage unit 211 of the PTP sheet 200.

Here, the opening operation of the opening part 212 of the accommodating part 211 of the PTP sheet 200 will be described. FIG. 6 is a conceptual diagram for explaining the opening operation of the opening 212 of the accommodating part 211 of the PTP sheet 200. FIG. 6A is a diagram illustrating a state before the opening 212 of the accommodating portion 211 of the PTP sheet 200 is opened. FIG. 6B is a diagram illustrating a state after opening the opening 212 of the storage unit 211 of the PTP sheet 200.

As shown in FIG. 6 (a), the front end portion on the protruding side of the accommodating portion 211 of the PTP sheet 200 is pressed with the finger YB. Then, as shown in FIG. 6A, the PTP sheet 200 and the sensing sheet 110 are bent by the pressing force of the finger YB. And when the protrusion side of the accommodating part 211 is crushed by the pressing force of the finger YB as shown in FIG. 6B, the tablet 300 in the accommodating part 211 breaks the thin foil sheet 220 of the PTP sheet 200, The opening part 212 of the accommodating part 211 is opened. As a result, the tablet 300 in the storage unit 211 is taken out from the opening 212 of the storage unit 211. Note that the restraining sheet 120 is not shown in FIGS. 6 (a) and 6 (b). However, the holding sheet 120 is also bent in the same manner as the sensing sheet 110 by the pressing force of the finger YB.

The opening operation of the opening 212 of the storage part 211 of the PTP sheet 200 has been described above with reference to FIG.

Next, the acceleration sensor 130 of the vibration detection circuit 191 detects the vibration of the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 constituting the holding unit.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing data relating to vibrations when the opening 212 of the accommodating part 211 of the PTP sheet 200 is opened. In FIG. 7, the acceleration measured by the acceleration sensor 130 is set on the vertical axis, and the measurement time of the acceleration sensor 130 is set on the horizontal axis.

As shown in FIG. 7, the acceleration sensor 130 determines whether vibration associated with opening has occurred in the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 based on the measured values of the accelerations of three points P1 to P3.

P1 is the “push start point”. That is, this “push start point” corresponds to a point in time when the accommodating portion 211 starts to be pressed by the finger YB. As shown in FIG. 7, at the “push start point”, the magnitude of the acceleration is slightly increased like a whisker.

P2 is “thin foil sheet break point”. That is, the “thin foil sheet break point” is a point indicating the moment when the thin foil sheet 220 is broken as a result of the container 211 being pressed by the finger YB. At the “thin foil sheet break point”, a large change in acceleration occurs. In addition, as above-mentioned, a thin foil sheet is also called a barrier film. For this reason, the “thin foil sheet break point” is also called a barrier film break point.

P3 is the “opening operation end point”. That is, the “opening and closing operation end point” is a time point when the pressing of the accommodating portion 211 by the finger YB is completed. As shown in FIG. 7, at the “opening operation end point”, the change in acceleration is suppressed and the normal state is reached.

As described above, the acceleration sensor 130 determines whether vibration has occurred in the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 on the basis of the measured values of the acceleration at the three points P1 to P3. That is, for example, a predetermined condition is set for the relationship between the measured acceleration values at points P1, P2, and P3. As a more specific example, the acceleration measured at point P2 is greater than the threshold value of 20m / s ^ 2, and acceleration exceeding the threshold value is detected more than once within 20ms. Furthermore, if vibration with an amplitude of 5 m / s ^ 2 or more at 10 Hz or less is observed within 1 second before or after the point P2, the acceleration sensor 130 determines that vibration has occurred on the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 due to opening. To do.

Further, the detection device 100 recognizes that the tablet 300 has been taken out from the PTP sheet 200 when the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 vibrates. Thus, as a result of the acceleration sensor 130 detecting that the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 has vibrated, the detection apparatus 100 can recognize that the tablet 300 has been removed from the PTP sheet 200.

In this way, in the detection device 100 of the present invention, the acceleration sensor 130 detects whether or not the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 is vibrated due to opening. When the acceleration sensor 130 detects that the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 is vibrated due to opening, the detection device 100 detects that the tablet 300 has been removed from the PTP sheet 200. On the other hand, when vibration due to opening occurs in the sensing plate 110 or the holding plate 120, the detection device 100 recognizes that the tablet 300 has not been taken out from the PTP sheet 200 while it is not detected by the acceleration sensor 130.

Further, as necessary, the communication circuit 195 transmits a detection result detected by the acceleration sensor 130 included in the vibration detection circuit 191 to the outside of the detection device 100. Thereby, information on whether or not the tablet 300 has been taken out from the PTP sheet 200 can be output to the outside of the detection apparatus 100.

Then, after all the tablets 300 are taken out from the PTP sheet 200, the PTP sheet 200 is removed from the upper surface of the sensing plate 110. That is, the holding plate 120 is rotated about the hinge 170 in the direction α1 away from the sensing plate 110. Thereby, the upper surface side of the sensing plate 110 is opened. The PTP sheet 200 is removed from the upper surface of the sensing plate 110 while the upper surface side of the sensing plate 110 is open.

Next, the mechanical characteristics of the sensing plate 110 will be described in relation to the amount of crushing of the thin foil sheet 220 of the PTP sheet 200 and the accommodating portion 211.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing the mechanical characteristics of the sensing plate 110. In FIG. 8, the vertical axis is set to stress and the horizontal axis is set to distance. As shown in FIG. 8, the sensing plate 110 has an elastic range within a certain range. That is, the sensing plate 110 has an elastic range between the distances 0 and SA and between the stresses 0 and σA.

Thus, all the electronic components can be accommodated in the electronic component accommodating portion 160A. For this reason, for example, members other than the electronic component housing portion 160A can be configured with a simple configuration at low cost. Thereby, for example, a laminated body of the sensing sheet 110, the PTP sheet 200, and the restraining sheet 120 can be handled as a consumable product.

Also, as shown in FIG. 16, the acceleration sensor 130 and the data storage IC 141 are electrically connected via the connection wiring 150 in the electronic component housing portion 160A.

Further, the surface 202 opposite to the tablet taking-out surface of the PTP sheet 200 and the lower surface of the holding sheet 120 are set so as to face each other. Accordingly, the PTP sheet 200 can be sandwiched in a state where the PTP sheet 200 is disposed between the sensing plate 110 and the holding plate 120.

Next, as shown in FIG. 16, one end of the laminate of the sensing sheet 110, the PTP sheet 200, and the restraining sheet 120 is placed on the acceleration sensor 130 side of the electronic component housing 160A, for example, for example, a double-sided adhesive (non-adhesive) It is attached using a magnet (not shown) or a magnet (not shown).

Next, the user of the detection device 100 takes out the tablet 300 from the storage unit 211 of the PTP sheet 200.

Next, the acceleration sensor 130 of the vibration detection circuit 191 detects the vibration of the sensing plate 110 or the restraining plate 120 constituting the holding unit.
