    摘要: A nozzle tool system for extrusion blow molding has an intermediate module and at least first and second nozzle outlet units, each forming an adjustable nozzle outlet gap between a mandrel extending axially and a deformable sleeve. The units can be connected with the intermediate module as replacements for one another, and have a first outlet diameter and a larger second outlet diameter different from one another. At least one setting drive for reversible deformation of the sleeve is arranged on the intermediate module and can be connected with the deformable sleeve by way of a releasable coupling arrangement. The first nozzle outlet unit delimits a first setting path of the setting drive, using at least one inner mechanical stop, and the second nozzle outlet unit delimits a second setting path of the setting drive, greater than the first setting path, using at least one inner mechanical stop.

    摘要: A method for orienting a preform of axis in a forming mold of a blowing machine, a neck of the preform being provided with at least one marker, the method including (i) installing the preform in the mold; (ii) detecting the current angular position of the preform by determining the angle of rotation through which the preform has to be rotated to reach the reference angular position thereof; and (iii) orienting the preform about the axis thereof in relation to the mold until a reference angular position is reached.

    摘要: An apparatus for manufacturing a liquid container, in which a nozzle unit has a seal body disposed in a supply path, the seal body has an annular first seal portion, an annular second seal portion and a spare supply path extending from a flow inlet located between the first seal portion and the second seal portion to a flow outlet located closer to a tip side of the seal body than the second seal portion, and the seal body can move between a blocked position where the first seal portion sits on the supply path, a spare supply position where the first seal portion separates from the supply path and the second seal portion sits on the supply path and an open position where the first seal portion separates from the supply path and the second seal portion separates from the supply path.

    摘要: Ways of simultaneously forming and filling a container include and/or use a mold (14), a pressure source (20), a blow nozzle (22), and one or more dampening means. The mold (14) has a cavity defining an internal surface and is configured to accept a preform (12). The pressure source (20) is configured to provide a pressurized liquid (18). The blow nozzle (22) is configured to receive the pressurized liquid (18) from the pressure source (20) and transfer the pressurized liquid (18) into the preform (12) to urge the preform (12) to expand toward the internal surface of the mold cavity (16) and form a resultant container, where the liquid (86, 96) remains within the container as an end product. The one or more dampening means is/are configured to reduce water hammer, for example, by coupling such dampening means to one of the blow nozzle (22) and the mold (14).

    摘要: Systems and methods for making a reduced material container (105) are provided that hold a preform (130) adjacent to an open end (165) of the preform (130), stretch the preform (130), close a mold (110, 120) about the stretched preform (175) to form a truncated preform (185), and introduce a pressurized fluid (160) into the truncated preform (185) to expand the truncated preform (185) and form the reduced material container (105). A stretch rod (125) can be inserted into the preform (130) to mechanically stretching the preform (130). The mold (110, 120) accepts the preform (130) at a first end (135) thereof, has an open state and a closed state, and the closed state forms a cavity (140) defining an internal surface (145) having a second end (150) located remotely from the first end (135). A first length (155) is defined by a distance between the first end (135) and the second end (150), the stretch rod (125) mechanically stretching the preform (130) to a second length (170), the second length (170) being greater than the first length (155).

    摘要: A core rod assembly (10) for blow molding includes a core rod head (16), a first fluid pathway (A1) extending along a first length of the core rod head (16), and a second fluid pathway (A2) extending along a second length of the core rod head (16). The first and second fluid pathways (A1, A2) may be fluidly isolated from each other and provide selective temperature control of respective first and second portions of the core rod assembly (10) during the blow molding process. At least a portion of the first fluid pathway (A1) may be longitudinally offset from the second fluid pathway (A2) so as to define respective first and second temperature zones (zone 1, zone 2) along the respective first and second portions of the core rod assembly (10).
