Glassware forming machine with cooling system

A glassware forming machine comprising:

• a pair of carriers each pivoted for swinging movement toward and away from each other between an open position and a closed position;
• a plurality of mold members carried by each carrier, each mold member on each carrier being related to a mold member on the other carrier so that, with the carriers in their said closed position, each mold member on one carrier mates with a mold member on the other carrier to define a mold cavity for molding an item of glass,
• each mold member having air passages extending therethrough for passage of air for cooling;
• a plenum carried by each carrier for delivering air to the air passages of the mold members carried by the carrier, the plenum having ports for flow of air into the passages in the mold members and thence through and out of said passages;
• means providing a chamber below said carriers for air to be blown into the plenums and thence up through said air passages, and
• means for delivery of air from said chamber means to each plenum allowing swinging of said carriers and comprising, for each carrier:
• conduit means comprising flexible corrugated bellows-formation metal tubing in communication at one end constituting its lower end with said chamber for entry of air from said chamber, and in communication at its other end constituting its upper end with the plenum for delivery of air into the plenum.
