[0002] At present, energy is increasingly scarce. As a social producer that uses energy, enterprises are the main body of energy conservation and also shoulder the social responsibility of energy conservation. The future development direction of the industry to reduce energy consumption can start from green production, tap the potential of energy conservation and emission reduction, and enable enterprises to truly save energy, reduce consumption, reduce pollution, improve quality, increase efficiency, and achieve high-quality development. Beverage bottle embryos need to be clamped with clamping tools during processing.

[0003] The prior art discloses a preform clamping mechanism and a preform manipulator of CN217097827U. The preform clamping mechanism includes a mounting seat and a first clamping assembly. The first clamping assembly includes a first limiting kit and a first suction cup. The first limiting kit is connected to the mounting seat. The first limiting kit is provided with a first limiting through hole, a first air cavity and a first air hole. The first limiting through hole is connected to the first air cavity through the first air hole. The first limiting through hole is used to set the preform. The first limiting kit is used to slide on the outside of the preform. The first suction cup is set at the first air hole. The first suction cup is connected to the first limiting kit, and the first suction cup is used to abut against the outer wall of the preform. The preform clamping mechanism can effectively reduce the tipping of the preform caused by the manipulator releasing the preform, thereby effectively improving the production efficiency and production automation of plastic bottles.

[0004] The energy consumption in the preform formation process of our company is relatively high, because it involves processes such as heating and melting, cooling and molding, involving large temperature changes and high temperature maintenance, which requires large energy support. In addition, when the preform is clamped by the tool, the tool clamping part is difficult to heat, which may cause the preform to deform. Utility Model Content
