  • Patent number: 8435024
    Abstract: Device (1) for blowing and stretching a plastic parison (3) for obtaining a container, comprising: a blowing nozzle (4) having a first end (4a) to be applied to an inlet (3a) of said parison (3), said first end (4a) emerging in a controlled-contamination environment (5) wherein said parison (3) is blown; a stretching rod (2); means for injecting mid and high pressure air in said parison (3); a non-magnetic tube (7) secured to a second end (4b) of the blowing nozzle (4) and defining a chamber (8) for housing, at least partially, the stretching rod (2), said chamber (8) being tight-sealed relative to a contaminated area (22) from which said controlled-contamination environment (5) is isolated; a first magnet arrangement (9) and a second magnet arrangement (10) coupled together, said first magnet arrangement (9) being located outside said chamber (8) and said second magnet arrangement (10) being integral to said stretching rod (2) and located within said chamber (8).

  • Patent number: 8431069
    Abstract: Mold (1) for molding a container (2) obtained from a parison (3) of plastic material/ comprising: two half-molds (4); means (5) for moving said half-molds (4) between a closed position in which said half-molds (4) define a cavity (6) for housing the parison (3) or the molded container (2), and an open position in which said half-molds (4) are moved away from each other to enable the extraction of the molded container (2) from the cavity (6) or the insertion of another parison (3) in said cavity (6); two jaws (7) movable between a configuration' of engagement and a configuration of disengagement with the parison (3) or the container (2) located in said cavity (6), said half-molds (4) defining an inner portion (9) of the mold (1) that is complementarily shaped relative to an outer profile (10) of the jaws (7) in such a way that said jaws (7) are enclosed, at least partially, by said half-molds (4).
