A liquid blow molding method molds a bottomed tubular-shaped preform into a liquid containing container. The method includes a nozzle engaging step of engaging a blow nozzle with a mouth of the preform; a molding step of molding the preform into a container of a predetermined shape by supplying a pressurized liquid from a pump into the preform; a suck-back step of sucking back a predetermined volume of liquid out of the container into a supply path; a nozzle closing step of closing the blow nozzle by a sealing body; and a discharge step of discharging a liquid in the supply path by a predetermined volume from a discharge port by operating, after the nozzle closing step, a pump in a positive direction with the discharge port connected to the supply path opened.

A container having enhanced wall integrity and a rotational element is provided that includes a sidewall having polygonal cross-sectional shape and an alignment structure formed therein. The alignment structure is adapted for orienting the container with respect to a second container such that the panel sections of the containers become parallel with one another and the containers may be fully nested one within the other. The alignment structure can be recessed into the sidewall to form peaks and valleys along an inner surface of the container. The peaks include first and second faces sloping in opposite directions designed to direct corners of the first container's sidewall toward the interior valleys of the second container in order to orient the containers as they are stacked.

The invention relates to a container comprising a container wall that partly surrounds a container interior, wherein the container wall a) has a container opening; b) comprises a container layer comprising i) a multitude of particles, and ii) no fold and no crease;  and c) comprises a first polymer layer that at least partly superimposes the container layer;
wherein the container interior a. has a maximum diameter in a plane perpendicular to a height of the container interior, and b. has a diameter less than the maximum diameter of the container interior at least in sections in the direction from the plane to the container opening.

The invention further relates to a method of superimposing a container precursor with a polymer composition; a container obtainable by that method; an apparatus for superimposing a container precursor with a polymer composition; a method of filling and closing one of the aforementioned containers and the closed container obtainable thereby; and uses of a filling machine, of one of the aforementioned containers, of a polymer composition, and of a powder coating system.

Provided is a method for manufacturing a glass container with which a glass container having a distinctively shaped inner space and excellent aesthetic appearance can be manufactured in good yield. The method for manufacturing a glass container includes steps (A) to (E). (A) A step of introducing a gob into a mold through a funnel. (B) A step of blowing air into the mold through the funnel, bringing a plunger disposed on a side opposite the side to which the funnel is fitted in contact with the gob, separating the plunger from the gob, and forming a recess on the surface of the gob. (C) A step of removing the funnel from the mold and fitting a baffle to the mold. (D) A step of blowing air from the plunger, and forming an inner space inside the gob with the recess as a starting point while simultaneously forming an outer shape by pressing the outer side of the gob to a molding surface of the mold to obtain a glass container of the final shape. (E) A step of transferring the glass container of the final shape to a cooling mold and cooling the same.

A method of forming a cup-shaped body for a beverage capsule comprising the steps of: a) in a first stage drawing a sheet of material into a cup-shaped body preform; and b) in a second stage transforming the cup-shaped body preform into the cup-shaped body; wherein after the first stage the cup-shaped body preform comprises a base and a preformed side wall which extends from the base to a rim; wherein the preformed side wall comprises: an outwardly-extending step proximate the rim; a primary side wall section extending between the base and the outwardly-extending step; and a secondary side wall section extending between the outwardly-extending step and the rim; wherein in the second stage the preformed side wall is deformed such that the cup-shaped body comprises the base and a side wall which extends from the base to the rim; wherein the side wall comprises: an annular trough; a first side wall section extending between the base and the annular trough; and a second side wall section extending between the annular trough and the rim.
