CONTAINER MANUFACTURING APPARATUS
A container manufacturing device is provided. In detail, the container manufacturing device for performing manufacture of a container pre-form and container molding in a single station via one stop. The container manufacturing device includes a pre-form molding module configured to form a shape of a pre-form of a container using a resin material, an injection module connected to the pre-form molding module and configured to supply the resin material to the pre-form molding module, a container molding module configured to inject air to a pre-form completed by the pre-form molding module to expand the pre-form and to form the shape of the container, and including a container mold, and a rotary table with a rib plate suspended thereon while rotating between the pre-form molding module and the container molding module, the pre-form or the container being mounted on the rib plate.
Blow mold unit, blow molding machine and blow mold unit fixing method
A blow mold unit in which, when clamping first and second blow cavity split molds which are fixed to first and second fixing plates and bottom molds which are fixed to a bottom mold fixing plate, pressure receiving members fixed to the first and second fixing plates are brought into engagement with the bottom plate fixing plate. Guide plates are fixed to the bottom mold fixing plate, and guided members capable of being brought into abutment with the guide plates are supported by first and second pressure receiving plates. The bottom mold fixing plate includes a first connecting portion to be connected to a bottom mold opening/closing unit and a second connecting portion to be connected to a moving and biasing member.
A BLOWING MOLD FOR BLOWING THERMOPLASTIC MATERIAL CONTAINERS
Blowing mold (10, 100) for blowing thermoplastic material containers, comprising two half molds (1, 2) and a device for the cyclic opening and closing of the half molds (1, 2) which comprises a control shaft connected to the half molds by means of connecting rods (14, 20) and a control hub (15). The control hub is provided with a plurality of holes appropriately positioned so that by choosing the holes to which the connecting rods are hinged, it is possible to change the maximum opening angle of the mold.
LOCKING DEVICE FOR A MOLDING UNIT FOR CONTAINERS OF THERMOPLASTIC MATERIAL
Disclosed is a locking device for a molding unit for containers of thermoplastic material. The device includes a lock with at least one locking pin, the at least one locking pin being made of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and advantageously has at least one metal insert.
Blow molding device for a rotary bottle blowing machine and a method for using the same
A blow molding device for a rotary bottle blowing machine includes: a support base including a power-input shaft and a mold-insert control shaft which are pivotally disposed on the support base and extend along an axial direction; a drive source for driving the power-input shaft and the mold-insert control shaft to rotate; and a mold assembly with a first and second movable mold inserts pivotally disposed on the support base. The mold assembly makes the first and second movable mold inserts pivot toward or away from each other, rotation of the power-input shaft makes a bottom mold unit move in the axial direction, and can lock the first and second movable mold inserts. A method for using the blow molding device includes steps of mold opening or closing, mold lifting, and mold locking, and these steps are performed by using a single drive source.
Arrangement for receiving a casting mold with coaxial drive and method therefor
An arrangement for receiving a multi-part casting mold, in particular an at least two-part blow mold. A drive unit for displacing locking elements has a main cylinder with a main piston and a travel cylinder with a travel piston, wherein the travel cylinder is connected with the main piston of the main cylinder and is movable therewith. The travel piston has a piston rod, which is connected with the locking element and is mounted concentrically displaceably in the main piston. In the operating condition of the molding process, the travel piston abuts on the main piston, wherein the main cylinder provides the locking force to keep the mold closed during the molding process.
Modular blow mold system for blow molding a container
A modular system for blow molding a container. The system may include a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion. The first portion and second portion may each include a shell, a mold removably coupled to the shell, and a top plate. The third portion may include a base and a base mold. The molds may be 3D printed. The molds together may define a blow mold cavity. The modular system may be used at lab scale, pilot scale, or full production scale. The molds may be durable and smooth enough for full production scale. Some embodiments are directed to methods for making a modular system for blow molding a container.
