An apparatus (1) for the transforming of plastics material preforms (10) into plastics material containers with a blow molding nozzle (2) arranged on a blow molding piston (14) extending in a predetermined longitudinal direction (L), in order to act upon these plastics material preforms with a gaseous medium for the expansion thereof, with an attachment device in order to supply the gaseous medium to the blow molding nozzle (2), and with at least one connecting line (22) which conveys the gaseous medium from the attachment device to the blow molding nozzle. According to the invention at least one portion of this connecting line (22) extends obliquely with respect to the longitudinal direction (L).
