[0040] As preferred, the number of transport notches of the input disc and the output disc (the transport notches of the output disc are cap screwing positions) is eight, and the number of edge notches of the bottle neck support plate 41 and the bottle ring block 51 (which are filling positions) is twenty-four.

[0041] As shown, Figure 2 The hoisting rod two 42 and the hoisting rod three 52 are coaxial structures, so that the bottle neck support plate 41 and the bottle ring block 51 are integrated through the fixed connection of the hoisting rod two 42 and the hoisting rod three 52, and the bottle neck support plate 41 and the bottle ring block 51 are synchronized under the valve mounting ring plate 31, thereby enhancing the support stability of the bottle neck support plate 41 and the bottle ring block 51 to the bottle.

[0049] In addition, the HMI one-key switching parameter supports 50mL to 5L multiple specifications of bottle filling.

[0050] S1, first through the liquid inlet assembly to the liquid cylinder 2 into the filling liquid, and then through the bottle input mechanism input disc to be filled with bottle input to the bottle hoisting mechanism, to be filled with bottle will be inserted horizontally on the bottle neck support plate 41 and bottle ring block 51, at this time the bottle neck of the bottle will be inserted into the edge notch of the bottle neck support plate 41, and the bottle body of the bottle will be inserted into the edge notch of the bottle ring block 51;

[0051] S2, under the action of the rotating table 1, the bottle hoisting mechanism, the bottle in the hoisting state and the servo material falling mechanism rotate synchronously;

[0052] S3, start the gear pump 61, control the flow by the servo motor, let the liquid in the liquid cylinder 2 enter the filling assembly 7 through the gear pump 61 and the material guide inclined pipe 62;

[0053] S4, start the filling valve 71, let the liquid pass through the filling pipe 72 and finally fall into the bottle body below;

[0054] S5, with the bottle body lifting mechanism, the bottle body in the lifting state and the servo material falling mechanism continue to rotate, when the bottle body to be filled rotates to the side close to the bottle body output mechanism, the bottle body which completes the filling is guided out under the action of the bottle body output mechanism.
