Abstract
A blow molded container of the present invention is a container formed by blow molding in which a single-layer or multi-layer parison comprising a cylindrical resin material is heated and inflated by air in a mold, wherein a bottom sealing portion formed by pinch offs of the mold has a projection projecting outwardly from the container and sunk portions formed in one of the resin layers constituting the projection such a manner as to be buried in the other resin layer. Therefore, the bonded area between the resin layers is widened, thereby having higher bond strength and higher strength against the shearing force along the fusion bonded area
Claims13
A blow molded container formed by blow molding a parison comprising a resin material in a blow mold, wherein the blow mold includes splits, each of said splits having pinch-offs and opposing projections facing one another at different heights disposed proximate to the pinch-offs, wherein said blow molded container comprises:
- a body formed of resin layers, said pinch offs holding the parison and fusion bonding the resin layers to one another, and pinching off residual resin formed while the resin layers are fusion bonded;
- a bottom sealing portion formed by the pinch-offs during the fusion-bonding of the resin layers, the bottom sealing portion having sunk portions formed by the opposing projections in each of the resin layers, the sunk portions in each of the resin layers being at offset heights with respect to the pinch-offs, said offset heights substantially corresponding to the heights of the opposing projections.
A blow molded container formed by blow molding a parison comprising a resin material, the blow molded container having a body, a neck and a bottom formed from resin layers, the blow molded container further comprising:
- a bottom sealing portion proximate to the bottom of the container, the bottom sealing portion defined as a projection projecting downward and outward;
- a fusion bonding portion that bonds the resin layers proximate to the projection;
- sunk portions formed in the resin layers wherein the sunk portion on one resin layer being buried in another resin layer and the one sunk portion being at an offset height from the another sunk portion with respect to the bottom sealing portion;
- and
- projecting ends disposed proximate to the sunk portions, respectively, wherein the sunk portions and the projecting ends strengthen the bottom sealing portion.
A blow mold in which a parison comprising a resin material is heated and inflated by fluid, said blow mold comprising:
- splits facing each other to form a cavity for molding a container inside the splits, each of said splits having a pinch-off positioned at a bottom of the container, each said pinch-off holding the parison and fusion-bonding resin layers to form a bottom sealing portion of the container, each said pinch-off further pinching off residual resin formed while said resin layers are being fusion-bonded;
- each said pinch-offs having a stepped portion forming a concavity for molding the bottom sealing portion when superposing on each other;
- and
- at least one projection formed on each of said splits a first projection on one of said splits being at a different height than a second projection on another one of said splits, the projection on the one split being pushed to partially enter into the resin layer of said concavity at the stepped portion of the pinch-off and the projection on the other split being pushed to partially enter the other resin layer of said concavity, the first and second projections entering the resin layers at different heights.
