Abstract
A manufacturing method includes an injection molding process of injection-molding a preform, a temperature adjustment process of temperature-adjusting the preform while cooling the preform, and a blow molding process of blow-molding the temperature-adjusted preform to manufacture a resin container. In the injection molding process, a step portion thicker than at least an engagement groove of a neck portion is formed between the neck portion and a body portion of the preform.
Claims6
A manufacturing method for manufacturing a resin container, the manufacturing method comprising:
- an injection molding process of injection-molding a resin preform including a neck portion and a body portion;
- a temperature adjustment process of temperature-adjusting the injection-molded preform while cooling the injection-molded preform;
- and
- a blow molding process of blow-molding the temperature-adjusted preform to manufacture the resin container,
- wherein in the injection molding process,
- a step portion thicker than at least an engagement groove of the neck portion is formed between the neck portion and the body portion of the preform, an outer diameter of the step portion being larger than at least an outer diameter of the engagement groove of the neck portion,
- wherein in the blow molding process,
- the preform is blow-molded such that at least a part of the step portion remains between a neck portion and a shoulder portion of a container blow-molded based on the preform, and
- wherein the step portion formed between the neck portion and the body portion of the preform has an upper step portion formed between a neck mold and a core mold, and a lower step portion formed between a cavity mold and the core mold, and an outer diameter of the upper step portion is greater than an outer diameter of the lower step portion.
A manufacturing apparatus for manufacturing a resin container, the manufacturing apparatus comprising:
- an injection molding part configured to injection-mold a resin preform including a neck portion and a body portion;
- a temperature adjustment part configured to temperature-adjust the injection-molded preform while cooling the injection-molded preform;
- and
- a blow molding part configured to blow-mold the temperature-adjusted preform to manufacture the resin container,
- wherein the injection molding part is configured to form a step portion thicker than the neck portion between the neck portion and the body portion of the preform, an outer diameter of the step portion being larger than at least an outer diameter of an engagement groove of the neck portion of the preform,
- wherein the temperature adjustment part is configured to simultaneously cool the body portion of the preform from an inner side and an outer side of the body portion, and the blow molding part is configured to blow-mold the preform such that at least a part of the step portion remains between a neck portion and a shoulder portion of a container blow-molded based on the preform, and
- wherein the step portion configured to be formed by the injection molding part between the neck portion and the body portion of the preform has an upper step portion formed between a neck mold and a core mold, and a lower step portion formed between a cavity mold and the core mold, and an outer diameter of the upper step portion is greater than an outer diameter of the lower step portion.
