A molding apparatus that adsorbs thermoplastic resin extruded in a sheet form from an extruding machine, onto a cavity of a mold, and shapes the thermoplastic resin into a shape according to the cavity is provided. The molding apparatus may include a frame that is positioned on a periphery of the mold and is movable relative to the mold, wherein a suction part for suctioning the thermoplastic resin is provided in a contact surface of the frame to contact the thermoplastic resin, and the suction part is provided in a linear shape along with a longitudinal direction of the frame positioned on the periphery of the mold.

Blow moulding a container, including extruding a tube shaped, hollow, elongated parison from an extrusion head having one free end; and closing a moulding equipment around the parison. The moulding equipment includes a moulding cavity and at least one aperture providing an opening into the moulding cavity from outside the moulding equipment. An excess section of the parison is arranged inside the at least one aperture. The free end of the parison is kept in place in the moulding equipment opposite the at least one aperture. The method includes holding the excess section of the parison within the at least one aperture via a holding force; cutting the parison outside the equipment, thereby providing an open end; arranging a blow pin to close the open end of the parison; and blowing pressurised gas from the blow pin into the parison, thereby forming a blow moulded container within the moulding cavity.

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a container made of plastic, including the following steps: continuously extruding a hose, positioning an opened blow mold around the hose, so that the hose is arranged between the two blow mold halves, closing a hose gripper arranged at the blow mold to clamp the hose and simultaneously keeping the hose open at its upper side to form an inlet opening, separating the hose above the hose gripper to form the preform, horizontally moving the blow mold together with the preform hanging therein and held by the hose gripper into a blowing position, moving a blow mandrel assembly from above into the inlet opening of the preform, closing the blow mold halves, and inflating the preform in the blow mold to form a container.

A blow molding capable of maintaining the parison thickness distribution uniform, fabricating high-quality molded products, and improving its productivity. A parison supply device for supplying, to a blow mold, a parison discharged from an extrusion die, the parison supply device including: a pair of chucks for pinching, from above and below, a parison discharged downward from the extrusion die; and a chuck operation part for controlling an operation of pinching the parison by the pair of chucks and an operation of moving the pair of chucks. By the chuck operation part, the pair of chucks performs the operation of pinching the parison while being moved downward.

The invention relates to a method for producing a plastic article and a blow molding tool for performing the method. The method comprises extruding an approximately tube-shaped preform, dividing the melt flow within the extrusion head or separating the extrudate exiting or already exited from the extrusion head, such that a preform having an approximately C-shaped cross section is obtained, forming the preform into a hollow part within a multipart blow molding tool using differential pressure, wherein an expansion and partial preforming of the preform first takes place with the blow molding tool partially closed, then in a further step at least one insert is inserted into the interior of the partially preformed article between the not completely closed blow molding tool and through the open side of the preform, and in a further step the blow molding tool is completely closed, wherein the article is completely formed, forming at least one at least partially circumferential pinch-off seam.

A parison supply device that continuously supplies, to a blow molding die, parison sections of a parison discharged from an extrusion die, the parison section having a specified length. The parison supply device includes a plurality of tension chucks and a tension chuck operation unit that operates the plurality of tension chucks. The tension chuck operation unit causes the individual tension chucks to perform a repeated operation of grasping the parison at a first position near the extrusion die and moving to a second position separated from the extrusion die such that, before the preceding tension chuck is separated by a set distance from the extrusion die at the second position, the following tension chuck grasps the parison at the first position, and then the parison section is supplied to the blow molding die.

It is proposed a process for fastening an accessory to the interior of a blow-molded tank, the tank having a plastic wall produced from a parison, the accessory comprising a body having at least one attaching portion projecting radially from the body. The process comprises the steps of: a) introducing the accessory and the parison in a molten state into a mold so that the accessory is surrounded by the parison, the mold comprising cavities, at least one cavity being equipped with at least one movable insert configured to fold locally some of the molten parison on the attaching portion; b) contacting the parison with the attaching portion; c) moving forward the insert and folding locally some of the molten parison on the attaching portion; d) closing the mold by moving the mold cavities to a final closing position and inflating the parison to form the blow-molded tank; e) moving backwards the insert; and f) opening the mold.
