Abstract: An H-28 machine has a plurality of identical sections each processing a gob of molten glass into a parison and then into a piece of ware each complete revolution of the section. Each section includes a blank mold displaceable between a parison forming position and a retracted position by blank mold down air.Each section also includes a plunger which is displaceable from an elevated position down to the parison forming position and a neck ring assembly which includes an air motor. Finally the section also includes a blow mold displaceable from a remote position to a closed position. The air motor is operated from the time that the blank mold begins its displacement from the parison forming position to the retracted position by a valve which connects blank mold down air to the air motor.

Abstract: An H-28 machine for forming glass containers comprising a cylindrical timing drum having inner and outer surfaces and a timing cam having a circumferentially extending inner surface for matingly engaging the outer drum surface. A pair of elongated circumferentially extending slots are cut in the timing drum. A slider matingly engages the inner surface of the drum and is held against the outer surface of the timing drum by first and second spring biased studs supported by the slider. A motor driven horizontally extending linear actuator which extends between the timing drum and the slider horizontally displaces the slider to horizontally circumferentially displace the timing cam.
