The manual sorting efficiency is low, and the manual identification and sorting can cause errors and affect the sorting quality of the veterinary tablet. The full-automatic veterinary tablet sorting device is set up. The veterinary tablet is poured into the feeding hopper 210 by the staff, and the feeding mechanism 220 installed in the feeding hopper 210 is used for conveying, so that the veterinary tablet falls uniformly into the first conveying belt 300 on the machine box 200. The powder or small particle tablet adhered to the veterinary tablet falls into the machine box 200 from the filter screen on the first conveying belt 300 and is collected. The complete veterinary tablet is separated by the separation plate 100 on the first conveying belt 300, so that the veterinary tablet falls into the arrangement mechanism 500 on the first conveying belt 300 from the transmission channel between the separation plates 100. The arrangement plate 520 on the arrangement mechanism 500 arranges the stacked veterinary tablet in the transmission, so that the arranged veterinary tablet is single and horizontal on the first conveying belt 300. The support frame 600 is installed with a plurality of recognizers 700, which are used for image recognition of the veterinary tablet and transmit the recognized information to the picking assembly 800. The first rotating drive 810 on the picking assembly 800 is started, the gear 820 connected with the first rotating drive 810 is driven to rotate, the annular belt 830 engaged with the gear 820 is driven to rotate, another gear 820 connected with the annular belt 830 is driven to rotate, and the two gears 820 are synchronously rotated. The two gears 820 are synchronously rotated, so that the moving plate 850 moves along the length direction of the lead screw 840, and the picking mechanism 860 on the bottom of the moving plate 850 is started. The telescopic drive 861 on the picking mechanism 860 drives the picking sucker 862 connected with the bottom to move downward, so that the picking sucker 862 picks the crushed or damaged veterinary tablet and moves to the receiving box 230 installed on the side of the machine box 200 for collection. The first-level sorted veterinary tablet moves to the discharge port of the first conveying belt 300, and the arc-shaped blocking plate 110 is arranged at the discharge port. The blocking plate 110 blocks the falling veterinary tablet, so that the first-level sorted veterinary tablet is turned by 180 degrees and falls into the second conveying belt 400. After the arrangement on the second conveying belt 400, the veterinary tablet is identified and sorted again in the picking assembly 800. The second-level sorted veterinary tablet is discharged from the discharge plate 240 of the machine box 200, and the full-automatic sorting of the veterinary tablet is completed. The full-automatic sorting device is set up to replace the original manual identification, and the sorting efficiency and quality of the veterinary tablet are improved.
