Patent number: 11000983Abstract: A plural preform assembly having nested preforms. The preforms are held together by an interference fit. The interference fit is provided by the friction between the preforms which occurs when the inner preform is inserted into the outer preform. At least one preform may have ribs extending radially towards the other preform. The ribs provided concentricity and interference to hold the preforms together during subsequent operations. The preforms may later be blow molded to provide a bag in bottle or similar container.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2019Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Douglas Bruce Zeik, Matthew Aaron Neumann, Scott Edward Smith
