  • Patent number: 7964257
    Abstract: The blow molded preform of a laminated wall structure comprises a bulging shoulder portion, which has a diameter that widens slightly in the downward direction; a bottom shell portion for molding the bottom, which has been blow molded from the corresponding portion of parison P so as to have a widened and deformed shape; an inner overhang wall portion in any position starting from the opposite side of the neck ring and ending at the upper portion of the bulging shoulder portion, with the inner wall portion having a diameter that widens in the downward direction; and/or a radially widened connecting portion of an arced shape, which has a larger diameter than the barrel portion so that the entire bottom including the bottom shell portion takes a bulging spherical shape. With this configuration, no thick area is formed in the inner overhang wall portion on the opposite side of the neck ring and/or in the pinch-off portion.

  • Patent number: 7753221
    Abstract: A blow-molded container is provided, which has a low blow ratio and good appearances with no flash line, glossy spot, and/or color spot on the sidewall of the container near the bottom. The mold created for this purpose is used in blow molding and is characterized in that a split mold has a mold parting face perpendicular to the mold-clamping direction, splits into front and rear mold halves, and has a mold pinch-off section, which is used to pinch off parison P and is provided with pinch-off blades on bottom surface of mold cavity bottom. In the cross-sectional plan view of said split mold in its closed state, a bottom parting line is formed by a linear pinch-off line, which is formed on the bottom surface by the pinch-off blades, a pair of mold parting lines formed by said mold parting face on the right and left peripheries, and a pair of connecting lines that connects the right and left ends of said pinch-off line with the inner ends of said right and left mold parting lines.
