  • Publication number: 20230211925
    Abstract: A method of injection molding a test tube-shaped preform for biaxial stretch blow molding includes supplying a major material resin from outer and inner flow paths to a combined flow path for a predetermined time and rate. For a period of time within a range of the predetermined time period during which the major material resin is supplied, the intermediate layer resin is simultaneously supplied from the middle flow path to the combined flow path at a second predetermined supplying rate. A columnar laminated molten resin is injected into a cavity of a metal mold connected to a tip of the nozzle through a gate to fill the cavity, the columnar laminated molten resin being composed of the major material resin and the intermediate layer resin formed in the major material resin in a laminated manner that are combined into a columnar shape at the combined flow path.

  • Patent number: 11427369
    Abstract: A synthetic resin delamination container formed by blow molding a preform assembly having an outer preform and an inner preform, at least either one of an inner surface of the outer preform and an outer surface of the inner preform being applied with a release agent. The delamination container has: an outer layer body including an outer mouth portion and a bottomed tubular body portion being continuous with the outer mouth portion; an inner layer body including an inner mouth portion and a volume-reducible and deformable storage portion peelably laminated on an inner surface of the body portion through a release agent layer formed by the release agent; and an outside air introduction port configured to introduce outside air between the outer layer body and the inner layer body, in which an applying amount per unit area of the release agent layer is 10 to 850 mg/m2.

  • Patent number: 10870245
    Abstract: A process includes: supplying a main resin from outer and inner flow channel, to a joined flow channel at a predetermined supply velocity for a predetermined time; supplying a second resin from a middle flow channel to the joined flow channel simultaneously with the main resin at a predetermined supply velocity for a certain time within the predetermined time; and sliding a shut-off pin to bring the pin forefront to a predetermined position near an outlet of the inner flow channel, open to the joined flow channel, before the second resin is supplied, or during a time starting after a time from the start of the second resin supply and ending with the termination of the supply, so that the velocity of main resin supply from the inner flow channel to the joined flow channel is reduced to a predetermined level by adjusting the degree of aperture for the outlet.
