  • Publication number: 20240123671
    Abstract: A temperature adjustment mold capable of performing local temperature adjustment in an axial direction from the inside of a preform while restricting shrinkage and deformation of the preform, for adjusting a temperature of an injection-molded bottomed resin-made preform includes a rod portion inserted into the preform and extending in the axial direction of the preform. The rod portion includes an annular projection portion that protrudes in a radial direction of the rod portion and contacts an inner peripheral surface of the preform. The rod portion contacts a bottom portion of the preform to restrict shrinkage in the axial direction of the preform. The projection portion restricts shrinkage in a radial direction of the preform, conducts heat between the rod portion and the preform, and adjusts a temperature at a predetermined part in an axial direction of the preform.

  • Patent number: 11958229
    Abstract: The present application includes an injection molding step and a stretch blow molding step. The stretch blow molding step is configured to include: a first step in which preliminary blow air is introduced into a preform to stretch the preform in a state in which a stretching rod does not contact the bottom of the preform; a second step which is executed after the first step, and in which the preliminary blow air is introduced into the preform and the stretching rod is moved at a set speed and pressed against the bottom of the preform to stretch the preform; and a third step which is executed after the second step, and in which final blow air is introduced into the preform to stretch the preform.

  • Patent number: 6854309
    Abstract: A gas barrier synthetic resin container 10 has an opening portion 12 defined by a flange 12A, a body portion 14 having the opening portion 12, and a bottom portion 16 for closing the end of the body portion 14. The container 10 is a wide mouth container having the minimum inside diameter Dmin of the opening portion 12 larger than the maximum inside diameter Dmax of the body portion. Alternatively, the container 10 may be a wide mouth container having the minimum inside diameter Dmin of the opening portion 12 smaller than the maximum inside diameter Dmax of the body portion, the difference between the diameters being equal to or less than 20 mm. A diamond-like carbon film 18 is formed on an outer wall of the body portion 14 and bottom portion 16 of the container 10. After the container 10 has been filled with contents, a metal cover 20 and the flange 12A are double-seamed onto the container to provide improved gas barrier properties to the entire container.
