A blow molding mold in which a holding mechanism is independently provided to a bottom mold and is configured to be capable of gripping a protruding portion provided to a bottom portion of a preform independently of a gate portion, and a rotation mechanism is configured to be capable of rotating the bottom mold, relative to a neck portion of the preform which is in a stationary state held by neck molds, in a state where the protruding portion is gripped by the holding mechanism.

Disclosed is a method for molding plastic preforms into plastic containers using a blow mould assembly including a blow mould unit, wherein a part of the blow mould unit is retained on a blow mould holder element using negative pressure.

A system for forming a container includes an injection station configured to inject a liquid material into a mold to form a preform. The system also includes a forming station including an apparatus for forming a container. The apparatus includes a blow mold configured to receive the preform and inject air into the preform to form the container. The blow mold includes an inner mold surface. The apparatus also includes at least one stretching rod configured to contact the preform in the blow mold and stretch the preform. The apparatus further includes electric heating elements coupled to the blow mold and positioned adjacent the inner mold surface to heat the inner mold surface. The system further includes a removal station configured to release the container from the system.

A system comprising a male part, a female part, a driving piece having a spool portion provided with a radial bore, a driving member moving radially inside the radial bore, a cavity and a radial projection. The driving piece moves in translation between a disconnected position of the male and female parts and a connected position of the male and female parts. The driving piece comprises a piston sliding in an activation chamber under the effect of a pressing force. The piston is attached to the spool portion in such a way as to move the drive piece to one of the positions from the connection position and disconnection position under the effect of the pressing force. The system further includes a control unit for triggering the application of the pressing force on the piston.

A hollow article 10 is molded in a state where an inner surface of a neck portion 11 including an inner screw portion is held by an inner neck mold 52, and then, the hollow article 10 is demolded from the inner neck mold 52 by inserting an ejection rod 81 into the hollow article 10 to be engaged with an inner surface of the hollow article 10 and rotating the hollow article 10 together with the ejection rod 81.

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 polymeric container including a finish defining an opening of the container. A body defines an internal volume for storing product therein. A base is at an end of the body opposite to the finish. The base defines a plurality of recesses spaced apart from one another about an axial center of the base.

A process is provided for making a blow-molded PET container comprising a wall having a density of between about 1.370 g/cc and 1.385 g/cc, a heat-induced crystallinity of from about 18% to about 25%, and a strain-induced crystallinity of from about 55% to about 75%, wherein the PET container, when filled with a liquid having a temperature of from about 100 C. to about 132 C. or when subjected to a pasteurization or retort process, will not experience a change in volume of greater than 3%.

This resin-made container is provided with: a neck portion having a content inlet-outlet portion; a lateral surface portion connected to the neck portion; and a bottom portion that is disposed on the side opposite to the neck portion and that is connected to the lateral surface portion. The resin-made container is produced by a stretch blow molding process. The bottom portion has formed therein a bulge section that protrudes downward in the vertical direction. The bulge section is disposed in an eccentric region, of the bottom portion, positioned outside a region demarcated by perpendicularly projecting an opening plane of the inlet-outlet portion of the neck portion.

The present application includes an injection molding step and a stretch blow molding step. The stretch blow molding step is configured to include: a first step in which preliminary blow air is introduced into a preform to stretch the preform in a state in which a stretching rod does not contact the bottom of the preform; a second step which is executed after the first step, and in which the preliminary blow air is introduced into the preform and the stretching rod is moved at a set speed and pressed against the bottom of the preform to stretch the preform; and a third step which is executed after the second step, and in which final blow air is introduced into the preform to stretch the preform.
