Abstract: A male element (100) of a mould (10) for the compression moulding of a parison comprises a die (110) and a ducting system (117), located inside the die (110) to allow a cooling fluid to flow in the male element (100), wherein the die (110) comprises: a body (112); a liner (116) fitted round the body (112) and having an outside surface, acting in conjunction with a female element (200) of the mould (10) to delimit a forming cavity (20), and an inside surface in contact with the outside surface of the body (112), wherein the ducting system (117) is formed between the body (112) and the liner (116).

Abstract: A male element (100) of a mould (10) for the compression moulding of a parison comprises: a die (110), extending along a longitudinal axis (A) and including a body (112) having, inside it, a longitudinal cavity (113) 5 extending along the longitudinal axis (A) and, at one end of it, a socket (111) in communication with the longitudinal cavity (113); a stretching rod (120), slidably inserted in the longitudinal cavity (113) and including a terminal portion (121) at one end of it, the stretching rod (120) being movable relative to the die (110) between a retracted position, in which the 10 terminal portion (121) is housed inside the socket (111), and an extracted position, in which the terminal portion (121) is extracted from the socket (111).

Abstract: Apparatus for producing objects in continuous cycle from plastic material includes: distributor unit; forming station for forming a plurality of objects by compression moulding; metering unit, including an outlet valve system and an additional valve system, where the outlet valve system and the additional system are each switchable between an open configuration and a closed configuration; and plurality of partition elements, disposed between the additional system and the outlet valve system and movable between an upper limit position and a lower limit position to vary an internal volume of the distributor unit, where, in a charging configuration of the metering unit, the outlet valve system and the additional valve system are in the closed configuration and in the open configuration, respectively, and in a discharging configuration of the metering unit, the additional system and the outlet valve system are in the closed configuration and in the open configuration, respectively.
