When the number of the passing packaging bottles reaches the set threshold value, the controller 10 operates the movable rod 84 to retract, and the packaging bottles accumulated at the two third vertical plates 6 can enter the next storage channel. The cycle is repeated until all the channels are filled with packaging bottles. In this way, the palletizing robot of the production line can grasp the batch-arranged packaging bottles at one time, without the need for frequent batch grasping or rearrangement, thereby greatly improving the working efficiency of the entire packaging bottle production line.
