摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a tonnage regulating structure and a mold incorporating same. For example, a tonnage regulating structure (302, 1002, 1202) for use in a mold (502) of a molding machine, the mold (502) being associated with an opening clearance (520) between mold faces in a mold closed and clamped configuration, is provided. The tonnage regulating structure (302) comprises a body (304, 1040, 1240) having a first height (306) in a resting configuration, the first height (306) selected to be larger than the opening clearance (520) between the mold faces in a mold closed and clamped configuration; the body (304, 1040, 1240) including a compensating structure (308), the compensating structure (308) for regulating, in use under applied clamp tonnage, the body (304, 1040, 1240) to a second height (320), the second height (320) being smaller than the first height (306).

摘要:
Disclosed herein are a preform (500) and a mold stack for producing the preform (500). The preform (500) is suitable for blow-molding into a final-shaped container. The preform (500) comprises a neck portion (502); a gate portion (506); and a body portion (504) extending between said neck portion (502) and said gate portion (506); the neck portion (502) including a support ledge (512), the support ledge (512) being associated with a metal contacting surface (520) and a weight, and wherein a ratio of the metal contacting surface (520) to the weight modulated for a base line support ledge thickness curve is selected in a range of between 0.1 and 1000.
摘要:
According to embodiments of the present invention, there are provided a mold stack, a molding system incorporating same and a method of aligning the mold stack. For example, a mold stack is provided. The mold stack comprises a first molding cavity defining component, a second molding cavity defining component and a third molding cavity defining component, with the second molding cavity defining component being located, in use, in-between the first molding cavity defining component and the third molding cavity defining component. At least one of the first molding cavity defining component and the third molding cavity defining component is associated with a respective compensator, the respective compensator configured to allow the at least one of the first molding cavity defining component and the third molding cavity defining component to align itself relative to the second molding cavity defining component.
