Abstract
The invention relates to a matrix mold, in which at least one mold cavity is bounded by the head of an ejector at the lower opening of a cup, from which in the substantially truncated conical wall of this cup, widening upward, facing the interior, by at least two grooves in the lower part of the cup and by teeth disposed in the interior of these groove, which are radially slidable in a radial direction by an eccentric arrangement, and in which the diameter of the head is greater than the smallest diameter of the mold cavity.
Claims11
A matrix mold for use in manufacturing stackable containers, molded from plastic foil and cut-out, with at least one substantially truncated conical mold hollow space expanding upward, said mold comprising means defining a mold cavity having a bottom and a wall, the bottom of the cavity being provided by a head of an ejector;
- a plurality of at least three teeth slidably disposed in radial grooves open downward and arranged along the circumference at intervals in the lower part of said wall;
- and an eccentric arrangement for moving each of said teeth radially, said head presenting a larger diameter than the smallest diameter of the mold cavity.
A matrix mold for stackable containers that are molded and cut out from a plastic foil, said matrix mold having at least one mold cavity of substantially truncated conical form, widening upward, said mold cavity having a bottom defined by an ejector and having a wall defining a cup and having interior grooves open downward in the lower part of the cup;
- at least two teeth slidably disposed in said interior grooves, said teeth each including a cam member;
- an eccentric arrangement including a ring member rotatable by gear rack arrangement, said ring member having a caming surface which co-acts with the cam members of the teeth for sliding said teeth radially when said ring member is rotated and wherein a head of said ejector presents a larger diameter than the smallest diameter of the mold cavity.
A matrix mold for the molding of stackable containers from a plastic foil, with at least one substantially truncated-conical mold cavity widening upward, said cavity having a bottom defined by a face surface of an ejector and having a side wall defining an inner surface of a sleeve;
- a plurality of sliders disposed in grooves in said side wall;
- each slider having a tooth-like projection arranged circumferentially and extending into the mold cavity at the bottom thereof, the projections being disposed on sides of said sliders facing the mold cavity;
- and an eccentric arrangement for moving said projections radially of the mold cavity, the diameter of the face surface of the ejector being greater than the distance apart of two projections lying diametrically opposite one another when in their position thrust forward into the mold cavity.
