Abstract
Apparatus for drawing a mouth-neck portion of a synthetic resin bottle in the radial direction, by inserting an expanding operation zone of the apparatus into the mouth-neck portion in the heated state and expanding respective drawing pieces of the expanding operation zone in the radial direction. The apparatus includes a cylindrical wall constructed by a great number of drawing pieces, a pressing rod inserted into this cylindrical wall to expand the drawing pieces in the radial direction and an elastic tubular member to be inflated in the radial direction by high pressure compressed air.
Claims4
Apparatus for forming a complete synthetic resin bottle from a parison having an open mouth neck portion at one end and a closed barrel portion at the other end, comprising:
- a holding member for holding a parison composed of synthetic resin material;
- means for heating a mouth-neck portion of the parison to a temperature high enough to permit reshaping of the heated synthetic resin material;
- a cylindrical longitudinally segmented molding tool, for insertion into said mouth-neck portion, which tapers inwardly from a first top diameter to a second narrower bottom diameter, adjacent segments defining therebetween a plurality of longitudinal v-shaped openings on the face of said molding tool, said molding tool carrying a rod between the segments thereof;
- means for pulling the rod through the molding tool between the segments to radially outwardly expand the segments and increase the bottom diameter of the molding tool, whereby the mouth-neck portion of the parison is radially expanded;
- and
- means for blow-molding the remaining portion of the parison to form a barrel portion of a complete bottle.

- means for heating a mouth-neck portion of the parison to a temperature high enough to permit reshaping of the heated synthetic resin material;
- cylindrical longitudinally-segmented molding tool for insertion into said mouth-neck portion, having a top end and a bottom end, said bottom end being smaller in diameter than said top end, said tool evenly tapering from said top end to said bottom end, adjacent segments defining therebetween a plurality of longitudinal V-shaped openings on the surface of said molding tool whereby said molding tool carries a tapered rod between the segments thereof, said molding tool surrounding the minimum diameter of the tapered rod;
- means for pulling the tapered rod, minimum diameter end first, through the molding tool, between the segments to radially outwardly expand the segments and increase the diameter of the bottom end of the molding tool, whereby the mouth-neck portion of the parison is radially expanded;
- and
- means for blow-molding the remaining portion of the parison to form the barrel portion of a complete bottle.
