Abstract
A cylindrical main body 3 of a medicine administering device main body 1 is formed with a holder accommodating section 5, in which a capsule holding section 9 of a capsule holder 8 is disposed to be able to get in and out of the holder accommodating section 5. Accordingly, the capsule can be installed in a capsule fitting depression 10 formed in the capsule holding section 9, or the capsule after use can be taken out at a drawn-out position where the capsule holding section is drawn out of the holder accommodating section 5, so that installation and taking-out operations for the capsule can be easily made without decomposing respective parts like in a conventional technique. Additionally, the capsule can be located at a pushed-in position by pushing the capsule holding section 9 in the holder accommodating section 5. Further, a burr releasing space is formed in a pin insertion hole located on an opposite side with respect to a perforating tool 25 so as to allow burr to be bent when a hole H1 is formed in the capsule K by a pin 27 of the perforating tool 25, thereby facilitating cleaning operation for removing broken pieces of the capsule K.
