Abstract: Provided is a stretching rod for a molding unit for manufacturing a container from a preform and a method for manufacturing a container by stretch blow-molding. The stretching rod extends longitudinally, parallel to a main axis Y, and comprises a body of cylindrical or tubular form, a distal end in the extension of said body, at least one internal channel to allow the circulation of a cooling gas to said distal end, a flat situated at the distal end of the stretching rod, an end-fitting protruding from said flat and a plurality of orifices, said orifices being fluidically connected with said internal channel and being distributed around said end-fitting on said flat. The rod can include an annular skirt in the extension of said body, at said distal end, said skirt having a height less than the height of said end-fitting.

Abstract: A Molding unit for the forming of a container includes: a mold provided with a side wall defining a cavity bearing the impression of a portion of the container; an insert having a frontal surface bearing the impression of a local portion of the container, movable between a retracted position and a deployed position, with this insert being penetrated by ducts; a pierced piston to which the insert is attached and which ensures the mobility of the latter between its retracted position and its deployed position; and at least one pierced screw by which the insert is attached to the piston.

Abstract: A one-piece mold element (3, 7) for a mold (1) for manufacturing containers from blanks of plastic material by blow molding or stretch blow molding. The mold element (3, 7) includes a one-piece molding wall (4, 8) having a raised molding surface (5, 9) bearing the imprint of at least one portion of a container, the molding wall (4, 8) having at least one decompression vent (20) extending therethrough, the hole leading, via an inner opening (21), onto the molding surface (9), which is provided in the form of a slot.
