[0030] This application, by setting up a material handling mechanism 4 and a conveying mechanism, enables automated transfer of bottles from the first conveyor belt 2 to the second conveyor belt 3, significantly improving transfer efficiency while avoiding errors and instability caused by manual operation. The slide table 53 is provided with a first placement hole 531 and a first limiting structure 532, and the lifting platform 51 is provided with a second placement hole 511 and a second limiting structure 512, effectively limiting the sliding or tipping of the bottles during transfer, ensuring that the bottles maintain a stable posture throughout the transfer process and improving the reliability of the equipment. The connecting seat 55 is provided with a retractable hose 56, which can connect with the first placement hole 531 on the slide table 53, and allow the bottles to slide from the first placement hole 531 into the second placement hole 511 through the through hole 551.

The pipe diameter of the push rod 15 is smaller than the inner hole diameter of the elastic sleeve 112. The fifth driving device 14 can be a cylinder, a linear motor, a linear module, a belt wheel conveying mechanism or a screw rod mechanism.
[0036] In an embodiment, the first limiting structure 532 comprises a first stopper capable of blocking the lower end of the first placing hole 531, and the sliding table 53 is further provided with a first cylinder 533 for driving the first stopper to move so as to block or open the lower end of the first placing hole 531.
