Abstract: A base made from plastic material for a motor vehicle tank accessory, including protrusions to be welded to a preform during production of the tank by blowing the preform, wherein: the base includes a solid surface recessed from the protrusions, the solid surface including a part without protrusions and a part taken up by the protrusions, the area of the part of the solid surface without protrusions is at least equal to one times the area of the solid surface taken up by the protrusions, the height of the protrusions relative to the solid surface is between 0.6 mm and 0.8 mm.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tank of plastics material produced by blow-molding of a parison, incorporating a welding spout, of a shape projecting from its outer surface which has an edge configured to be welded to a corresponding edge of an attached part, the welding spout ending axially, on an inside of the tank, in a shape resulting from contact molding between the parison and a molding component, in which the welding spout ends axially on an outside of the tank in a shape resulting from contact molding between the parison and a molding component.

Abstract: The invention relates to a filler pipe (1) weldable to a liquid tank (3) of a vehicle, wherein the filler pipe comprises a main body (4), a secondary body (5) configured to support an inlet check valve (2) and a weldable flange (6) suitable for welding around an opening in the liquid tank (3), the weldable flange (6) extending between the main body (4) and the secondary body (5).

Abstract: A method for forming a welding spout of a plastic tank from a multilayer parison, during blowing of the parison for manufacturing the tank. The method includes, in a blowing mold including two cavities and an insert, one of the cavities delimiting a recess for forming the welding spout, the recess having a mouth opening opposite the insert: providing a push member on the insert opposite the mouth of the recess of the cavity, capable of assuming a first position set back from the recess and a second position in which the push member occupies a portion of the mouth of the recess; positioning the push member in the first position thereof; blowing the parison to match a shape of the cavities; during creeping of the parison towards the inside of the recess, moving the push member into the second position thereof.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a hollow body, typically a tank, from a plastic material. The method includes molding a preform into shells in a molding tool; joining an insert to an inner surface of a shell of said shells, the insert defining a sub volume within the hollow body to be made; joining together the shells to form the hollow body by closing the molding tool and applying a main pressure to a main volume enclosed by the shells. It is proposed to apply a sub pressure to the sub volume while applying the main pressure to the main volume, such that a pressure difference between the main volume and the sub volume is bigger than 0.20 bar (P1??P2?>0.20 bar) and smaller than 3.00 bar (P1??P2?<3.00 bar).
