A mold includes a link member including a protruding grip forming part configured to form a grip part to a portion of a container by pressurizing a portion of a preform that is expanded during blow molding; and a piston member configured to move forward toward a cavity to thus press and rotate the link member. The grip forming part has: a pressurizing surface configured to pressurize the portion of the preform; and a contact surface configured to come into contact with the piston member, wherein the piston member has a pressing surface that comes into contact with the contact surface and presses the grip forming part toward an inside of the cavity when moving the pressurizing surface, and wherein the pressurizing surface is arranged at an opposite side of the contact surface of the grip forming part with respect to a moving direction of the piston member.

A handle of the present invention is a handle configured to be attached on a side surface of a container body along an upward and downward direction of the container body, the handle including an elongated grip portion, an upper attachment arm provided on an upper side of the grip portion, and a lower attachment arm provided on a lower side of the grip portion, wherein on at least a part of a lower surface of a distal end side of the upper attachment arm, a first inclined surface is formed to be inclined toward A center portion of the grip portion, and on at least a part of an upper surface of a distal end side of the lower attachment arm, a second inclined surface is formed to be inclined toward the center portion of the grip portion.

A blow molded synthetic resin bottle has a body and an elongated neck with the body providing a shoulder extending about the base of the neck. The neck has a first collar extending thereabout spaced adjacent the shoulder and at least one additional collar extending thereabout adjacent the upper end of the neck. The resin in the neck is substantially unoriented. To produce the bottle, a synthetic resin preform is injection molded with a generally tubular body and the elongated neck. This preform is placed in a blow mold cavity having a body receiving portion and a neck receiving portion that has a recess extending thereabout seating the first collar therein. The additional collar is disposed outwardly of the mold cavity and is disposed on the upper surface of the mold.

A blow molding machine suitable for manufacturing the bottle having the handle and a method for using the same, wherein each of the preform holders has a local temperature regulating device, the local temperature regulating devices are disposed around the handle portion, the rotary joint supplies liquid or gas continuously to the local temperature regulating devices of the preform holders to perform continuous temperature regulation for the handle portion, thereby overcoming the problem that the temperature needs to be immediately cooled after the injection molding, and temperature of the body portion can be maintained, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing energy consumption.

Disclosed herein, amongst other things, is a method for converting a design of an original preform that is blow moldable to form a container into a converted preform having less molding material that is blow moldable to form the same container. The method includes retaining a neck finish and body of the original preform on the converted preform. The method further includes replacing the original base of the original preform with a converted base having an outer base surface that joins with an outer body surface of the body at an base split-line of the original base and that fits offset within an outer body surface of the original base, whereby the converted preform has a reduced total length, disregarding any gate vestige that may be formed thereon, relative to a total length of the original preform.
