## Abstract

A blow-molded lamination container includes an outer layer and an inner layer. The outer layer has a bottom and an air-inletting seam. The air-inletting seam is disposed through the bottom of the outer layer, and is formed from a tapering opening by cooling shrinkage. The inner layer is disposed in the outer layer, is capable of being filled with a content and contracts with respect to the outer layer, and is not nipped within the air-inletting seam by the outer layer. A width of a widest portion of the air-inletting seam is at least twice greater than a width of a narrowest portion of the air-inletting seam. A manufacturing method for the blow-molded lamination container is also provided.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A blow-molded lamination container comprising:
an outer layer having
a bottom;
an air-inletting seam disposed through the bottom of the outer layer, and formed from a tapering opening by cooling shrinkage; and
an inner layer disposed in the outer layer, being capable of being filled with a content and contracting with respect to the outer layer, and being not nipped within the air-inletting seam by the outer layer;
wherein a width of a lower side portion of the air-inletting seam is at least twice greater than a width of an upper side portion of the air-inletting seam.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer layer has
a top located away from the bottom of the outer layer; and
a flange formed near the top of the outer layer.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the inner layer has a circular discharge opening formed through a top of the inner layer.

### Claim 4 (depends on 2)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 2, wherein the inner layer has a circular discharge opening formed through a top of the inner layer.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 1, wherein
the outer layer has two positioning protrusions disposed at two ends of the air-inletting seam; and
the inner layer has two positioning grooves nipped by the two positioning protrusions.

### Claim 6 (depends on 2)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 2, wherein
the outer layer has two positioning protrusions disposed at two ends of the air-inletting seam; and
the inner layer has two positioning grooves nipped by the two positioning protrusions.

### Claim 7 (depends on 3)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 3, wherein
the outer layer has two positioning protrusions disposed at two ends of the air-inletting seam; and
the inner layer has two positioning grooves nipped by the two positioning protrusions.

### Claim 8 (depends on 4)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 4, wherein
the outer layer has two positioning protrusions disposed at two ends of the air-inletting seam; and
the inner layer has two positioning grooves nipped by the two positioning protrusions.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the air-inletting seam has a triangular cross section.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the air-inletting seam has a semicircular cross section.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the air-inletting seam has a polygonal cross section.

### Claim 12

A manufacturing method of a blow-molded lamination container comprising the following steps:
preparing a laminated tube comprising an outer layer and an inner layer;
setting the laminated tube in a mold composed of two halves, wherein one of the two halves has a cutting tool movably mounted thereon;
clamping the two halves of the mold, and making the outer layer and the inner layer of the laminated tube compressed by bottoms of the two halves and joined;
inserting a nozzle and injecting air into the laminated tube from a top end thereof, and pushing the laminated tube out to match the two halves of the mold to be shaped as a blow-molded lamination container;
moving the cutting tool, cutting off residues of the outer layer and the inner layer, and engraving an opening with a triangular cross section on a bottom of the outer layer; and
opening the mold, taking out the blow-molded lamination container, and generating an air-inletting seam from the opening with a triangular cross section;
wherein the inner layer is not nipped within the air-inletting seam by the outer layer.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The manufacturing method of a blow-molded lamination container as claimed in claim 12, wherein
each one of the two halves of the mold has a respective mold groove formed thereon;
two positioning protrusions are formed on the outer layer in the process of inserting a nozzle and injecting air into the laminated tube from a top end thereof; and
two positioning grooves are formed on the inner layer and nipped by the two positioning protrusions.
