Under the action of inertia, the bottle turns over and changes direction, and the torsion spring returns to its original state and pushes the bottle onto the bottle turning wheel. If the bottle mouth is at the back, due to the larger bottom of the bottle, it will not stay at the swing rod for a short time, but will keep its original state and be sent to the upper conveying mechanism by the bottle turning wheel before leaving the bottle unscrambler. The utility model has a simple structure and a high degree of automation, and can effectively realize the reversal of the bottle mouth and bottom. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
