  • Patent number: 11453522
    Abstract: A method is described for shaping the bottom of hot-filled containers, in which the bottoms of the containers are forced inwardly from a state bulged outwardly, in particular as they cool down. Complex mechanisms for forcing the bottom inwardly are dispensable for the reason that the bottoms are forced inwardly by at least one fluid jet and/or fluid pressure wave. In addition, shaping the bottom can advantageously be carried out in a production region immediately downstream of a closer.

  • Patent number: 11161667
    Abstract: A plastic container has a mouth portion, a main body, and a base portion which adjoins the main body. The base portion has a central region as well as a diaphragm which runs in a circumferential direction and extends from the central region to the main body. The central region is pivotable relative to the main body between at least two positions which differ with regard to an internal volume of the container. The wall has at least one and preferably at least two circumferential grooves and are spaced apart from one another. The central region has a projection extending in the direction of the interior of the plastic container, and at least one web extending at least in part in a radial direction in the circumferential wall.

  • Patent number: 10358250
    Abstract: A one piece plastics material container has mouth, a wall portion adjoining the mouth in a longitudinal direction (L) and a base portion in the form of a standing face. The base portion has an injection point—situated on the inside in a radial direction (R) with respect to the longitudinal direction (L)—on the outer wall of the plastics material container, a central area which surrounds the injection point, and a transition portion which extends from the central area to the wall portion. The transition portion has in at least one radial direction (R) and preferably in each radial direction (R) a curvature with a finite radius of curvature in at least one portion. The base portion has a plurality of reinforcement ribs which starting from the central area extend in the direction of the wall portion.
