[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Multiple tablet sorting channels can first sort the tablets that are about to be visually inspected. The tablets enter and pass through the multiple sorting channels of the upper tablet sorting component. Then, the front visual inspection component can perform frontal inspection on the tablets conveyed by the upper conveying component. After that, the tablets pass through the first rejection component, which can reject tablets that are judged to have defects on the front. The tablets that are qualified on the front continue to be conveyed under the action of the upper conveying component. Then, the tablets are flipped by the flipping mechanism and enter the lower conveying component with the back side facing up. The tablets continue to be conveyed and pass through the multiple sorting channels of the lower tablet sorting component. The tablets are sorted into the corresponding sorting channels and then conveyed to the back visual inspection component, which can inspect the back side of the tablets. After that, the tablets continue to be conveyed through the second rejection component, which can reject tablets that are judged to have defects on the back side. The qualified tablets are conveyed and output on the lower conveying component. This invention has a simple structure and is easy to operate.
