[0010] The working principle of the bottle feeding protection mechanism in the filling, stoppering and capping machine is as follows: according to the size of the bottle, the adjusting rod is controlled to rotate by rotating the adjusting switch. When the adjusting rod rotates, the adjusting block will move in the direction of thread rotation due to the thread cooperation between the adjusting block and the adjusting rod, thereby driving the adjusting ring block to rotate slightly, so that the initial height of the auger body is changed, until a gap is formed between the bottle and the auger. When the bottle is stuck during feeding, the auger swings due to the clamping force, causing the support seat to rotate accordingly, thereby driving the bearing seat and the clamping ring block to rotate through the support seat. When the clamping ring block rotates, it drives the tension spring to pull up. The sensing device senses the swing and transmits the swing data to the control system, so that the control system controls the equipment to stop running. When the stuck bottle is processed, the tension generated by the tension spring drives the clamping ring block to reset, thereby resetting the auger body.

The start and stop of the auger assembly can be controlled by the control system. A mounting box for movably connecting the support seat is also installed on the frame. In the above structure, when the auger body is accidentally stuck when conveying a bottle, the clamping force will cause the auger body to swing. The sensing device senses the swing and transmits the swing data to the control system, thereby stopping the equipment. After the operator resets the bottle, the resetting device drives the auger body back to the initial position, thereby restarting the equipment. While protecting the equipment, the equipment can be restored to operation as soon as possible when it is stuck. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
