  • Patent number: 7083407
    Abstract: A holding jig for such a preform formed of a synthetic resin into a bottomed cylindrical shape as is to be assembled by inserting a mouth cylinder portion to an insertion limit into the leading end portion of a cylindrical jig body having a pin inserting bore formed therethrough at its center for a drawing pin to be inserted thereinto. The holding jig comprises a support portion disposed in the inner circumference of the leading end portion of the jig body at a position to confront a peripheral projecting ridge of the mouth cylinder portion, for making such external contact with the outer circumference of the peripheral projecting ridge as to insert and extract of the mouth cylinder portion, thereby to hold the assembled posture of the preform. The holding jig can hold the preform stably in a predetermined posture thereby to achieve a high productivity for the biaxial orientation blow-molded bottle.

  • Patent number: 5711913
    Abstract: The present invention is intended to prevent the deformation of a cylindrical mouth portion of a preform when a blow pressure acts thereon in a diameter expanding direction during biaxial orientation blow molding. During biaxial orientation blow molding, sealing of the blow pressure is accomplished by means of a neck ring P1 circumferentially provided on a lower end of the circumferentially provided on a lower end of the circumferential surface of a cylindrical mouth portion P2 of a preform to thereby make the blow pressure act uniformly on the whole area of the cylindrical mouth portion P2, whereby the unreasonable deformation of the cylindrical mouth portion P2 due to the ununiform application of blow pressure thereto can totally be eliminated.

  • Patent number: 4313534
    Abstract: A device for unloading a product or a light bottle-shaped container of synthetic resin from a predetermined jig for engaging the container throughout the production line from an injection molding machine. This device incorporates a turntable for holding a number of jigs at equal central angle intervals at its periphery, a rocking unit relatively rotatably rocking to turn at the same speed in the same direction as the turntable and to then return to the original position faster than the previous speed, and a pair of linking mechanisms supported by a supporting arm to the rocking unit for unloading the container engaged by the jig. Thus, this device can continuously, rapidly and exactly feed the unloaded container to the next step.

  • Patent number: 4312437
    Abstract: A device for supplying a piece of preformed synthetic resin to the next process line in an apparatus for producing a bottle-shaped blow-molded container of biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate by overturning the piece from neck portion upward position into neck portion downward position, engaging the piece thus overturned to neck portion downward position with orienting jigs held at equidistant central angles at the peripheral edge of a turntable rotating at constant speed in predetermined direction, and supplying the piece held at the jigs around the turntable to a next process line adjacent to the turntable. Thus, the pieces can be continuously rapidly and exactly supplied to the next stage or line.

  • Patent number: 4299549
    Abstract: This heating blow-molding machine fabricates a number of bottle-shaped containers from biaxially oriented plastic pieces or parisons by supplying the plastic pieces to a heating unit to heat them to the orientation temperature and then supplying them to 12-station rotary blow molding machine for biaxial orientation. Each of the plastic pieces or parisons is made of polyethylene terephthalate resin to provide a thin-walled transparent bottle-shaped container of cylindrical shape with one bottom and a prefinished neck portion injection molded simultaneously in numerous number by an injection molding machine. This blow-molding machine consists of a turntable for the heating unit, a turntable for a blow-molding machine, and a turntable for loading and unloading the pieces and the products blow-molded from the pieces.
