A method for producing a containing system for a liquid dispenser having a dimensionally stable outer container and a collapsible inner container, in the form of a pouch, arranged within the outer container. The method includes starting from the outer container, at least one layer of a pouch material being applied to an inner wall of the outer container. For this purpose, the pouch material is applied in the form of a liquid or powder to the inner wall, where, after solidifying or fusing, it forms a ply of a wall, of the inner container. The ply detaches from the inner wall of the outer container when the inner container collapses.

A machine and method for obtaining a curved surface of a film structure that comprises a carrier layer and a functional film (212). The machine comprises an annular support member having a supporting face adapted for supporting the film structure, and an opening (10) that is covered by the film structure when said film structure is supported by the annular support member; a clamping system configured to clamp the annular support member and the film structure when supported by the annular support member; and a forming system configured to apply pressure, and preferably temperature, on the film structure so as to curve said film structure in or through the opening (10) of the annular support member. The opening (10) of the annular support member has a contour that is non-circular so that the obtained curvature of the functional film (212) corresponds to a target curvature.

A preform for molding a dual container, in which an inner preform is inserted into an outer preform in a state in which a mouth portion of the inner preform is fitted into a mouth portion of an outer preform, the inner preform is formed of a crystalline resin, a crystallized region is provided in at least a portion of the inner preform, the crystallized region having a degree of crystallization greater than that of the other portion, the portion of the inner preform adjacent to the mouth portion from below the mouth portion and located below the outside air introduction hole, a step portion facing upward and a rib extending upward from the step portion are formed on an inner circumferential surface of the inner preform, and at least a part of the rib is adjacent to the crystallized region from above the crystallized region.

In an example, a composite structure having a variable gage is described. The composite structure includes a first end having a first gage, a second end having a second gage, which is less than the first gage, a plurality of continuous plies, and a plurality of drop-off plies. Each continuous ply extends from the first end to the second end. Each drop-off ply includes a tip having a tapered shape. Each drop-off ply extends from the first end to a respective position of the tip of the drop-off ply between the first end and the second end. The tips of the plurality of drop-off plies are arranged in a monotonically-inward pattern.

A plural preform assembly having nested preforms with an inner preform and an outer preform. The preforms are sealably joined together, defining a volume between the preforms. Propellant is disposed in the volume between the preforms. The preforms are later blow molded to provide a bag in bottle, bottle in bottle or similar container. The propellant charge is already present when blow molded, preventing the need for a later propellant filling step.

The invention relates to a dispenser container consisting of an outer container and an inner container for receiving a fluid, wherein the outer container and the inner container are formed from blow-moulded plastics, which do not form an integral connection with one another, and wherein a first plastic from which the inner container is formed has a higher elasticity than a second plastic from which the outer container is formed, such that the inner container is deformable, and wherein the outer container has at least one pressure compensation opening for pressure compensation in the region between the outer container and the inner container, wherein the inner container has a first outlet region and the outer container has a second outlet region, wherein the first outlet region can be shifted relative to the second outlet region in an outlet direction.

To provide a composite preform that can ensure that worsening of the appearance of a surface of a plastic member caused by near-infrared heating prior to blow molding is effectively prevented and that an inner preform is efficiently heated. The composite preform of the present invention includes a preform and a heat-contractive plastic member, the preform including a mouth part; a trunk part linked to the mouth part; and a bottom part linked to the trunk part, and the heat-contractive plastic member being disposed so as to surround the outside of the preform and including at least a colored layer that contains a resin material and a colorant, wherein the heat-contractive plastic member has a near-infrared transmittance of 50% or higher.

Provided are a preform for manufacturing a synthetic resin container, in which a decorative layer (60) having three-dimensional design different from the conventional one is formed on the surface of a container main body (10a), and a synthetic resin container. In a preform (1) including a preform main body (1a) of a bottomed cylindrical shape that is opened to have a mouth portion (2) on one end side thereof, and a covering layer (6) configured to cover the preform main body (1a) except for a part thereof on a mouth portion (2) side, and a container (10) obtained by subjecting the preform to blow molding, a distal end side of the covering layer (6) (decorative layer (60)) is formed so as to reach a peripheral end edge of a neck ring (22) while covering a lower surface of the neck ring (22) that is provided on a lower end side of the mouth portion (2) and protrudes annularly along a circumferential direction.

A synthetic resin-made container has an outer layer body and an inner layer body separably laminated on an inner surface of the outer layer body and is formed by stretch blow molding, and has: a tubular mouth portion; a shoulder portion located below the mouth portion and increasing in diameter downward; a barrel portion connected to and located below the shoulder portion; and a bottom portion closing a lower end of the barrel portion, wherein the mouth portion has an outside air introduction hole for introducing outside air into a space between the outer layer body and the inner layer body, and the inner layer body is made of a crystalline resin, and has, in at least a part of the mouth portion in the inner layer body, a crystallized region having a higher degree of crystallinity than other regions.

The disclosure provides a preform layered body and a layered container produced by biaxial stretch-blow forming of the layered body. In this preform layered body, an RFID tag has been inserted between an inner-layer-use mouth part and an outer-layer-use mouth part that are to remain unaltered, with no biaxial stretch-blow forming performed thereon, as a container mouth part for a layered container. Since the container mouth part does not become exposed to the high temperature and high pressure for stretch-blow forming purposes, abuses to the RFID tag, such as damage, breakage, and deformation, which arise from the heating, pressurization, and stretching during the stretch-blow forming, can be avoided reliably. In addition, labor-saving and counterfeit prevention effect can be anticipated by causing the RFID tag to hold product information.
