Abstract: Apparatus is provided for expanding plastics material parisons into plastics material containers by a liquid medium, having at least one transforming station, which fills and expands the plastics material parisons with the liquid medium with at least one pressure generating device, which is suitable and intended to deliver the liquid medium to at least one filling device, which filling device fills the plastics material parisons with the liquid medium, wherein the pressure generating device has a pressure outlet which at least at times can be fluidically connected to the plastics material parison to be filled. The apparatus has a removal device which is suitable and intended at least at times to remove a flowable medium from a plastics material container, wherein the pressure generating device has a suction intake which at least at times can be fluidically connected to this removal device in order to remove the flowable medium.

Abstract: Provided is an apparatus for expanding plastics material parisons into plastics material containers by a liquid medium with at least two transforming stations which fill and expand the plastics material parisons with the liquid medium with at least one common delivery device, which delivers the liquid medium to both transforming stations, wherein the transforming stations in each case have filling devices which fill the liquid medium into the plastics material parisons. According to the embodiments these transforming stations and/or filling devices in each case have a throttle device which are suitable and intended for changing the volume flow of the liquid entering the plastics material parisons.

Abstract: A machine for expanding plastic parisons into plastic containers by a liquid medium with at least two transforming stations. These transforming stations fill and expand the plastic parisons with the liquid medium, with at least one pressure generating device. This pressure generating device is suitable and intended to deliver the liquid medium to at least one filling device which fills the plastic parisons with the liquid medium, wherein at least one shut-off device is installed in at least one connection channel between the pressure generating device and the filling device, inside which the liquid medium is conveyed. This shut-off device is configured and provided in order that a fluid path inside the connection conduit can be at least partially interrupted.

Abstract: An apparatus for expanding plastic preforms into plastic containers by a liquid medium using at least one forming station that fills and expands the plastic preforms used in the liquid medium using at least one supply device that supplies the liquid medium to a filling device of this forming station, wherein this filling device is configured to fill the liquid medium into the plastic preforms, and wherein the apparatus has a pressure generation device that supplies the liquid medium under pressure to the filling device. The pressure generation device has at least two pressure generation units that are configured to provide the liquid medium under pressure to the filling device.
