[0002] Chinese herbal medicine slices are Chinese herbal medicines that have been processed and processed according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine and the processing methods of traditional Chinese medicine, and can be directly used in the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine. This concept shows that Chinese herbal medicine slices are the product of the processing of Chinese herbal medicines and traditional Chinese medicines, and are important raw materials for the clinical use of traditional Chinese medicine and the production of Chinese patent medicines. Chinese herbal medicine slices include some slices of Chinese herbal medicines processed at the place of origin (including segments, blocks, and petals), original herbal medicine slices, and processed products formed by cutting (cutting, grinding, crushing, etc. on the basis of cleaning) and roasting (using methods such as frying, roasting, calcining, steaming, and boiling). The production of Chinese herbal medicine slices needs to be strictly controlled by process flow and quality standards to ensure its quality and safety. Color sorting of Chinese herbal medicine slices refers to the process of color recognition and classification of Chinese herbal medicine slices using a color sorter. This technology is based on machine vision and photoelectric detection technology. By capturing and analyzing the images of Chinese herbal medicine slices, high-quality products are distinguished from impurities or inferior products according to the color, size, shape and other characteristics of the medicinal materials.

[0003] In the prior art, when color sorting Chinese herbal medicine slices is performed by a color sorter, the slices are transported inside the machine and constantly collide with the machine, generating powder. The powder adheres to the sensors and lighting outside of the color sorter, affecting the lighting and sensing work, thereby reducing the accuracy of color sorting. Therefore, a color sorting device for Chinese herbal medicine slices is proposed. Utility Model Content
