DISPENSER CONTAINER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A DISPENSER CONTAINER
Manufacturing techniques are provided for dispenser containers. An external container is formed from a dimensionally stable material. A preform is provided that has a cup-like molded body constructed from at least two portions. A first portion is made of a blow moldable elastic plastic that is intended for the formation of an internal-container body. A second portion is made of a dimensionally stable plastic for the formation of an internal-container dispensing portion. The second portion has on its outer surface a slot-like recess to provide a vent duct. The preform is heated thereby introducing the preform into the external container and introducing a stretch blow molding pin into the preform. The blow molding is stretched in order to form an internal container with expulsion of the air contained in the space located between the preform and the external container such that the air escapes into the environment via the vent duct.
Heating oven and method of use
Ways to produce a plurality of preform (5) temperature profiles are provided that employ systems having a first heating means, a second heating means, and a first transfer means. The a first heating means has a first preform (5) path, imparts a first temperature profile to a preform (5) passing through the first preform (5) path, and has a first dispensing means configured to selectively dispense the preform (5) passing through at least a portion of the first preform (5) path. The second heating means has a second preform (5) path, imparts a second temperature profile to a preform (5) passing through the second preform (5) path, and has a second dispensing means configured to selectively dispense the preform (5) passing through at least a portion of the second preform (5) path. The first transfer means selectively transfers a preform (5) between the first preform (5) path and the second preform (5) path.
