The present invention relates to an injection and blow mold for an injection machine, the mold comprising one or more rows of molding cavities arranged in a base plate (5), each row of cavities including several injection cavities (1) and several blow cavities (2) arranged in an alternating manner and aligned with one another, with blow cavities (2) at opposite ends of the row. The injection cavities (1) are formed individually in respective injection blocks (3) and the blow cavities (2) are formed individually in respective blow blocks (4). The injection blocks (3) and the blow blocks (4) are separated from one another and project from the base plate (5). The injection blocks (3) are heated by external heating means relative to the base plate (5), and the blow blocks (4) are cooled by a cooling fluid circulating through cooling conduits (7a) arranged inside the blow blocks (4).

A molding apparatus provided with a transfer capable of transferring a heavy-weight mold clamping device. The molding apparatus that molds a molded product, includes: a mold clamping device clamping a parison extruded from an extruder to obtain a molded body, a transfer rail to support the mold clamping device in a transferable manner, and an electric cylinder to transfer the mold clamping device along the transfer rail. The mold clamping device includes first and second platens for holding a die, and a clamping drive unit for driving the first and second platens closer to or separated from each other, the electric cylinder includes a motor having an output shaft and a feed screw mechanism that converts the rotary motion of the output shaft into a linear motion.

A blow molding apparatus is provided with a mold carriage movable in a path between an extruder station and a blow-and-fill station. The mold carriage can have one or more mold assemblies. Each mold assembly has opposed first and second mold halves that together define a mold cavity. The first mold half is fixed to the mold carriage while the second mold half is independently movable relative to the first mold half within the mold carriage to open and close the mold assembly.

A method and device for producing filled containers from preforms made of a thermoplastic material. The preforms are respectively transferred to a molding or filling element of a molding and filling station and are shaped in the respective container in a subsequent molding and filling process inside a mold of the molding and filling station due to the action of the pressure of a supplied filling material in the preform. The respective container is withdrawn from the molding and filling element of the molding and filling station after molding and filling.

A container manufacturing method of manufacturing a resin container, the method including: a preform feed step of feeding a preform into a cavity of a batch-type mold for blow molding, the preform being formed into a bottomed tubular shape by a resin material; a liquid blow step of filling a pressurized liquid into a preform disposed in the cavity; and an ejection step of ejecting a container after blow molding from the cavity. The method further includes a mold slide step of sliding the mold for blow molding to a slide position that is different from a position of the mold for blow molding in the liquid blow step.
