摘要:
An apparatus and method for simultaneously forming and filling a plastic container is provided. A mold cavity defines an internal surface and is adapted to accept a preform. A pressure source is a servo motor system that includes an inlet. The servo motor system is operable to draw liquid through the inlet and urge it into the preform. A blow nozzle may be adapted to receive the liquid from the pressure source and transfer the liquid at high pressure into the preform thereby urging the preform to expand toward the internal surface of the mold cavity and create a resultant container. The liquid remains within the container as an end product.

摘要:
A method of forming a plastic container from a preform. The method comprises injecting a forming liquid into the preform at a predetermined system pressure range, a predetermined flow rate, and a predetermined duration sufficient to create a pressure spike at a peak pressure. The peak pressure being greater than the system pressure to urge the preform into the mold cavity, thus creating enhanced container definition, reduced post mold shrinkage, lower residual material stresses, and/or an improved transfer of the mold geometry and engraving to the final formed container.
摘要:
A mold device for forming a plastic container from a preform. The mold device comprises a mold defining a mold cavity and a central exterior rod system moveably disposed within the mold cavity. The central exterior rod system is positionable between an extended position engagable with the preform and a retracted position spaced apart from the preform. The central exterior rod system maintains a central orientation of the preform during formation.

摘要:
A hot-fill PET container which includes opposed hand grip sections in the sidewall enabling the container to be grasped between the thumb and fingers of one hand to facilitate handling of the container and pouring of liquid from the container. Each hand grip section includes an outwardly bulged surface having an outside edge and an integral hinge enabling opposite bulged surfaces to invert and collapse inwardly toward each other to accommodate internal forces tending to collapse the container sidewall inwardly due to filling of the container with liquid at an elevated temperature and subsequent cooling of the liquid.

A shelf life indicating structure including a substrate printed with an oxygen sensitive ink in combination with an oxygen scavenging layer is disclosed. The oxygen scavenging layer prevents oxygen reaching the substrate for a predetermined interval. Once the finite oxygen scavenging capability of the layer is exhausted, oxygen reaches the substrate, thereby activating a visible indication such as a color change, in the ink. The substrate and layer may be formed into a patch or label for a package, and covered with an oxygen impermeable layer, such as a strip of aluminum foil which can be peeled off to initiate a shelf life indication structure. A method associated with the shelf life indicating structure is also provided.
