A blow molding apparatus improves productivity and obtains a high-quality molded product by supplying a good-quality parison to molds. A blow molding apparatus includes: a die head which discharges a parison; a parison supplying part which cuts the discharged parison at a preset length and conveys the cut parison; and a blow molding part in which the supplied parison is clamped between blow molds so as to perform blow molding. The parison supplying part has a pickup chuck which conveys the cut parison alternately to a first supplying position set on one of right and left sides with respect to a discharge center of the die head and a second supplying position set on the other of right and left sides with respect to the discharge center. The blow molding part performs blow molding at the blow molds arranged at the first supplying position and the second supplying position, respectively.

A method for manufacturing a hollow body, typically a tank, from a plastic material. The method includes molding a preform into shells in a molding tool; joining an insert to an inner surface of a shell of said shells, the insert defining a sub volume within the hollow body to be made; joining together the shells to form the hollow body by closing the molding tool and applying a main pressure to a main volume enclosed by the shells. It is proposed to apply a sub pressure to the sub volume while applying the main pressure to the main volume, such that a pressure difference between the main volume and the sub volume is bigger than 0.20 bar (P1P2>0.20 bar) and smaller than 3.00 bar (P1P2<3.00 bar).

The invention relates to a method for producing a plastic article and a blow molding tool for performing the method. The method comprises extruding an approximately tube-shaped preform, dividing the melt flow within the extrusion head or separating the extrudate exiting or already exited from the extrusion head, such that a preform having an approximately C-shaped cross section is obtained, forming the preform into a hollow part within a multipart blow molding tool using differential pressure, wherein an expansion and partial preforming of the preform first takes place with the blow molding tool partially closed, then in a further step at least one insert is inserted into the interior of the partially preformed article between the not completely closed blow molding tool and through the open side of the preform, and in a further step the blow molding tool is completely closed, wherein the article is completely formed, forming at least one at least partially circumferential pinch-off seam.

A method for producing a flexible pouch made of flexible thermoplastic material, including steps of: (i) preparing hot flexible thermoplastic material in a pasty state, (ii) placing a so-called proximal pre-molded insert onto a mounting such that the insert is arranged in a ring around the mounting, (iii) coating all or part of the insert with hot flexible thermoplastic material in the pasty state, (iv) locking the blow-mold shells around the insert, and (v) injecting a pressurized gas into the chamber so as to expand the sleeve from inside onto the inner surface of the mold or expand the sleeve from the outside by creating negative pressure inside the chamber.

The present disclosure provides a container and a process for producing the container. In an embodiment, the process includes placing a sleeve bag on valve assembly (SBoV) in a blow mold apparatus. The blow mold apparatus has two opposing and movable molds. The SBoV has a valve seat. The process includes extending a parison of flowable polymeric material around the SBoV and between the opposing molds. The process includes moving the opposing molds to a closed position and pressing an upstream portion of the parison against the valve seat. The process includes blow molding a downstream portion of the parison into a container-shape within the closed mold. The process includes forming a container with the valve seat melt bonded to a neck portion of the container.

Provided is a method for welding an accessory part made of a thermoplastic resin to a parson which is being molded into a tank body. The method includes steps of: forming the accessory part to include an annular portion having an annular shape and a plurality of projections each projecting from the annual portion in a radially inward direction; and pressing the annular portion and the projections into the parson to be welded to the parson. Also provided is a welding structure of a tank body made of a resin and an accessory part made of a thermoplastic resin and welded to a wall surface of the tank body. The accessory part includes: an annular portion having an annular shape; and a plurality of projections each projecting from the annular portion in a radially inward direction. The annular portion and the plurality of projections are welded to the wall surface.

An object of the present invention is to provide a core member for a sandwich panel and a method of forming the core member for the sandwich panel which are capable of attaining a desired profile, a desired pattern on its surface, and a desired inner structure in accordance with an application of the sandwich panel. According to an aspect of the invention, there is provided a thermoplastic resin core member interposed between two resin skin sheets comprising a closed hollow portion located to be inside of a desired position in accordance with an application of the sandwiched panel, and it is formed by clamping parison of a molten thermoplastic resin positioned to be between two split molds so as to exhibit a desired profile and/or a surface shape, two surfaces against each of which the molten parison is pressed to form an adhesive surface on which the corresponding resin skin sheet is formed.
