[0041] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 The bottle valve loading and unloading machine provided in the embodiments of this application will now be described.
[0042] A bottle valve loading and unloading machine includes a machine base 10, a fixed base 20, a tightening mechanism 30, and a control mechanism 40.
[0043] Specifically, a height-adjustable base 70 is provided on one side wall of the machine platform 10 extending vertically, and the base 70 is used to support the target gas cylinder 50. The height of the base 70 relative to the machine platform 10 in the vertical direction is adjustable so that the machine platform 10 can accommodate target gas cylinders 50 of different sizes and specifications.
[0044] The fixed base 20 is slidably connected to the top of the machine base 10 in a horizontal direction and extends horizontally onto a flat surface. The tightening mechanism 30 is slidably connected to the fixed base 20 in a vertical direction, and includes a motor 31 and a tightening member 32 driven by the motor 31 to rotate. The tightening member 32 is used to screw the target cylinder valve 60 onto the target gas cylinder 50. Alternatively, the tightening member 32 is used to remove the target cylinder valve 60 from the target gas cylinder 50.
[0045] The control mechanism 40 is connected to the machine base 10 and electrically connected to the motor 31. After identifying the specification corresponding to the target gas cylinder 50, the control mechanism 40 adjusts the number of rotations of the motor 31 according to the preset control program corresponding to the target gas cylinder 50 of that specification, thereby ensuring the reliability of the installation quality of the cylinder valve.
[0046] The control mechanism 40 includes a display screen 41. When the target cylinder valve 60 needs to be installed on the target gas cylinder 50, the corresponding specification model of the target gas cylinder 50 is selected on the display screen 41. The target cylinder valve 60 is manually installed on the target gas cylinder 50 and pre-tightened by 3-4 turns. Then, the tightening member 32 is fitted onto the target cylinder valve 60. The position of the fixing seat 20 is manually adjusted so that the motor 31 is connected to the tightening member 32. Then, the tightening button on the control mechanism 40 is pressed so that the motor 31 rotates forward and drives the tightening member 32 to tighten the target cylinder valve 60 onto the target gas cylinder 50. After tightening the target cylinder valve 60, the position of the fixing seat 20 is manually adjusted so that the fixing seat 20 drives the motor 31 to separate from the tightening member 32. Then, the tightening member 32 and the gas cylinder are removed, thus completing the installation of the target cylinder valve 60.
[0047] When it is necessary to remove the target cylinder valve 60 from the target gas cylinder 50, select the corresponding specification model of the target gas cylinder 50 on the display screen 41, manually install the target cylinder valve 60 on the target gas cylinder 50, then put the tightening part 32 on the target cylinder valve 60, manually adjust the position of the fixing seat 20 so that the motor 31 is connected to the tightening part 32, press the tightening button set on the control mechanism 40 so that the motor 31 reverses and drives the tightening part 32 to remove the target cylinder valve 60 from the target gas cylinder 50.

The control mechanism 40 is connected to the machine base 10 and electrically connected to the motor 31, and is used to adjust the number of rotations of the motor 31 according to the target gas cylinder 50 of different specifications, thereby ensuring the reliability of the installation quality of the cylinder valve.
