The invention relates to a device for transforming plastics preforms into containers with at least one blow mould for receiving the plastics preforms, wherein this blow mould has two mould parts, which can be pivoted with respect to each other about a connecting axis, with at least one locking element, which is arranged on one of the mould parts and interacts with at least one counter element arranged on the other mould part, in order to lock the two mould parts with respect to each other, wherein the counter element is a counter element which is arranged about an axis arranged substantially parallel to the connecting axis and can be turned between a locking position, in which the blow mould is locked, and an unlocking position, in which the blow mould can be opened, wherein the counter element is of such a kind that it lies at least partially against the locking element in the locking position and releases the locking element in the unlocking position, wherein the device has an actuating element for turning the counter element, this actuating element having a drive element which interacts with the counter element in order to actuate it.
An apparatus for moulding plastic preforms into containers, including at least one blow mould for receiving the plastic preforms, said blow mould including two mould parts that can be pivoted relative to each other about a connection axis, including at least one locking element arranged on one of the mould parts, which locking element cooperates with at least one counter element arranged on the other mould part, in order to lock the two mould parts against each other, said counter element being a counter element arranged essentially parallel to the axis (Y, Y′) arranged on the connecting axis, which counter element is rotatable between a locking position in which the blow mould is locked and an unlocking position in which the blow mould can be opened, said counter element being designed in such a way that the counter element rests in the locking position at least partially on the locking element and in the unlocking position releases the locking element,
A blow mould, in particular for an apparatus for moulding plastic preforms into containers, said blow mould including two mould parts that can be pivoted relative to each other about a connection axis, including at least one locking element arranged on one of the mould parts, which locking element cooperates with at least one counter element arranged on the other mould part, in order to lock the two mould parts against each other, said counter element being a counter element arranged parallel to the axis (Y) arranged on the connecting axis (X), which counter element is rotatable between a locking position in which the blow mould is locked and an unlocking position in which the blow mould can be opened, said counter element being designed in such a way that the counter element rests in the locking position at least partially on the locking element and in the unlocking position releases the locking element,
