Abstract: A method for producing a blow molded plastic bottle starting from a preform comprises providing a preform with a specific wall thickness distribution and a blow mold are provided, the cavity of the mold having at least one channel at the locations of the plastic bottle that are to be strengthened. Subsequently, the preform is heated in such a way that the portion of the preform that correlates with the channel of the cavity is thinned to a lesser extent during the stretching and/or blow, and an accumulation of plastics material is brought about in the channel during the main blow molding operation. A plastic container produced by this process has strengthening elements formed as at least one outwardly protruding bead of material and have a wall thickness that is at least 30%, greater than the wall thickness of a portion of the wall adjacent to the bead of material.

Abstract: A plastic pressure container has an essentially cylindrical container body with an opening closable in a pressure-tight manner by a valve attachment for dispensing a filling product. An interior plunger is arranged in a longitudinally displaceable manner along a longitudinal axis to subdivide the container body into a receiving chamber adjacent to the opening for the filling product and into a separated reservoir in a pressure tight manner, for a pressure medium. The plunger includes two circumferential sealing lips separated in the axial direction. An upper sealing lip extends into the receiving chamber and a lower sealing lip extends into the reservoir, and these are pressed in a fluid-tight manner onto an inner wall which delimits the interior of the container body, by pressure in the receiving chamber and reservoir.
