Abstract
A thin-walled bottle has ribs at least at its bottom portion, and the bottle bottom is raised up frusto-conically or has an undulatory shape. A tubular intermediate is first formed with ribs which become thin-walled protuberant ribs after blow molding. The thin-walled bottle is produced by blow-molding the ribbed tubular intermediate.
Claims9
A method of producing a synthetic resin made thin-walled container comprising the steps of injection molding an intermediate of a bottomed and top-open tubular configuration with a finished neck portion and with a plurality of radial ridges at least at a closed bottom portion of said intermediate and terminating below said neck portion, and using said intermediate by heating said intermediate to a temperature at which biaxial orientation can be accomplished, setting the heated intermediate in a blow molding die and subjecting it to blow molding to thereby form a thin-walled container formed with ribs at least at a bottom portion of said container.
A method of forming a blown plastic material container, said method comprising the steps of injection molding a preform with a generally hemispherical bottom portion and internal ribs extending radially from within said bottom portion in the area of the preform which corresponds to the bottom structure of the container, both ends of said ribs terminating below an intermediate portion of said preform, and using said preform by inserting the injection molded preform within a blow mold for the container, holding an upper end of said preform against movement and moving the preform bottom portion axially to axially stretch said preform and blow molding said preform to form said container.
A method of producing a synthetic resin thin-walled container comprising the steps of:
- forming by injection molding of a synthetic resin an intermediate with a neck portion with a thread, a generally hemispherical bottom portion, a tubular portion between said neck portion and said bottom portion, and a plurality of radial ridges integrally formed on and extending radially from a center area of said bottom portion and terminating within said bottom portion or a lower part of said tubular portion, and using said intermediate by:
- heating said intermediate to a temperature suitable for biaxial orientation,
- setting the heated intermediate in a blow mold for the container and holding the neck portion of the intermediate,
- moving the bottom portion of said intermediate to axially stretch said intermediate, and
- blow molding said intermediate thereby to form the container having an inwardly-raised portion at a bottom portion of said container, and a plurality of ridged ribs extending radially from a rising wall of said inwardly-raised portion to a side wall of said container through a ground-contacting area of said container.
