Preform elevating and rotating mechanism and bottle preform heating device

Abstract

A preform elevating and rotating mechanism includes a bracket, a preform insertion assembly, an elevating drive assembly, and a rotation drive assembly. The bracket is fixed on a carrier tray of a carrier mechanism, where the carrier tray is capable of driving the bracket to rotate. The preform insertion assembly includes an elevating base and a preform insertion member, where the elevating base is slidably mounted on the bracket, and the preform insertion member is rotatably mounted on the elevating base. The elevating drive assembly is configured to drive the elevating base to move up and down relative to the bracket, so as to enable the preform insertion member to be inserted into the bottle preform and enable the preform body of the bottle preform to be inserted into a heating barrel. The rotation drive assembly is configured to drive the preform insertion member to rotate.
