A glassforming blank mold having an internal surface and an engraving in the internal surface, wherein the engraving, in cross section, includes a radially outward surface having a circumferential width, and sidewalls connecting the radially outward surface to the internal surface of the blank mold, and including fillets between the radially outward surface and the sidewalk, and rounds between the sidewalls and the internal surface of the blank mold, such that the sidewalls are not straight but, instead, are continuously curving. A method of making a glass container using the mold is also disclosed, as is the glass container itself.

A machine is for the manufacture of a hollow glass article that includes at least one thin side wall. The machine includes at least one molten glass parison distributor, a blank mold including a cavity designed to successively receive at least one parison of molten glass, and components that form a blank of the article in the blank mold, transfer the blank into a cavity of the finishing mold, and form the article in the finishing mold. The cavity of the finishing mold includes at least one side part provided with a concave cavity to form, on the side wall of the article, a convex bulge directed towards the exterior of the article. The machine further includes a component that removes the bulge to give the side wall of the article a substantially constant thickness.

A container extends along a longitudinal axis and includes a base, a body extending axially from the base, and a generally radially outwardly facing external surface having sharply outlined indicia. The indicia includes generally V-shaped depressions having outer slopes, inner slopes, and vertices connecting the slopes. A method of making the container is also disclosed.

A half-cell for measuring a pH value of a measuring medium is disclosed including a tube-shaped carrier element and a pH-sensitive glass membrane connected to an end section of the carrier element. At least the end section of the carrier element includes a zirconia-containing and/or alumina-containing ceramic. A method for manufacturing a half-cell for pH value measurement and a potentiometric sensor are further disclosed.

Provided is a method for manufacturing a glass container with which a glass container having a distinctively shaped inner space and excellent aesthetic appearance can be manufactured in good yield. The method for manufacturing a glass container includes steps (A) to (E). (A) A step of introducing a gob into a mold through a funnel. (B) A step of blowing air into the mold through the funnel, bringing a plunger disposed on a side opposite the side to which the funnel is fitted in contact with the gob, separating the plunger from the gob, and forming a recess on the surface of the gob. (C) A step of removing the funnel from the mold and fitting a baffle to the mold. (D) A step of blowing air from the plunger, and forming an inner space inside the gob with the recess as a starting point while simultaneously forming an outer shape by pressing the outer side of the gob to a molding surface of the mold to obtain a glass container of the final shape. (E) A step of transferring the glass container of the final shape to a cooling mold and cooling the same.
