Abstract: A molded container of plastic material. The molded container including a neck finish defining an opening into the molded container, a body extending from the neck finish and including a shoulder adjacent the neck finish, a base defining a closed end of the container, and a sidewall extending between the shoulder and the base. Formed on a surface of the container and being defined by the plastic material forming the container are a series of raised dots defining a tactile writing feature.

Abstract: A method of forming a container (1) and a container (1) formed thereby. A preform (2), having a generally cylindrical body (60, 8) extending between a closed end (12) and an open mouth, is placed within a mold (20, 22) having surfaces corresponding in shape to the desired container (1). An incompressible medium, which is the end product that remains in the molded container (1), is injected under pressure into the preform (2). Under the influence of the incompressible medium, the preform (2) is expanded into contact with the surfaces defining the cavity, simultaneously forming and filling the container (1). During expanding of the preform (2), portions of the plastic material are forced into a series of recesses (72) defined in the cavity surface (82, 85). With the incompressible medium contained therein, the container (1) is removed from the mold (20, 22) and including a series of raised dots corresponding to the series of recesses (72) defined in the cavity surface (82, 85).

Abstract: Systems and methods for simultaneously forming and filling a container are provided where a pressure source is accelerated from an initial state to attain a predefined process speed while applying pressure to a volume of fluid. The volume of fluid is fluidly coupled to a preform upon attaining the predefined process speed, the pressure source directs at least a portion of the volume of fluid into the preform and stretching the preform to form the container, where the container includes at least the portion of the volume of fluid. The volume of fluid is fluidly decoupled from the container and the pressure source is then decelerated from the predefined process speed toward the initial state.
