ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a method and apparatus for manually counting pills or similar objects. Pills in excess of a required number are deposited in a counting area which has the general shape of an equilateral triangle and is defined by walls which surround all but a small open peripheral range of the area. The excess pills are separated from the required number on the counting area, and the user tilts the apparatus to cause the excess to slide out of the area through the open peripheral range while retaining the required number in the counting area. The user then tilts the apparatus to cause the required number of pills to slide out of the area through the open peripheral range.
