Thereafter, the can body 10 is laid on the transfer rail 31 such that the racks 311 in the two transfer grooves are engaged with the two ring gears 12 on the can body 10, respectively, to guide the can body 10 for rolling transfer. Because the gear drive assembly 25 is matched with the two gear rings 12 when the tank body 10 is rotated to align the filling opening 11 with the liquid spraying head, the tank body 10 cannot slip, and the rotation precision of the tank body 10 is improved.

The pushing assembly 50 includes a mounting bracket 51, a pushing cylinder 52 and a pushing circular plate 53, wherein the mounting bracket 51 is mounted on the mounting base 324 and protrudes to one side of the mixing shell 32, the pushing cylinder 52 is mounted on the top of the mounting bracket 51, the pushing circular plate 53 is disposed in one of the outlet openings 323 and connected to an output shaft of the pushing cylinder 52, and the pushing cylinder 52 is configured to drive the pushing circular plate 53 into the mixing shell 32 and apply force to an end of the can body 10, so as to push the can body 10 out of the other outlet opening 323 along the stopper bar 42. The mixing shell 32 can improve the mixing effect of the two liquids in the can body 10, and the stop assembly 40 can stop the can body 10 at a higher speed and guide the pushing direction of the can body 10. The pushing assembly 50 facilitates pushing the can 10 out of the mixing housing 32 for further operation.
For example, the filling transmission method further includes the steps of:
