Claims
- 1. A method of producing a bottle having a support ring in an outer periphery of a mouth portion thereof by biaxially stretch-blow-molding a pre-molded article for blow molding having the support ring and a barrel portion with bottom, whereinsaid pre-molded article is obtainable through the steps of: extruding a molten thermoplastic resin and cutting it into a mass of melt of nearly a predetermined amount; arranging a male metal mold and a female metal mold so as to move relative to each other and feeding the mass of melt into the metal mold; compression-molding the mass of melt into a pre-molded article while forming an and an annular groove in an inner peripheral edge in the lower surface of the support ring so that a change in the mass of the molten resin from the predetermined amount is absorbed as a change in height of the annular groove; and cooling and solidifying the compression-molded article and discharging the molded article out of the metal mold.
- 2. A method of producing a bottle according to claim 1, wherein the mass of melt is compression-molded into the pre-molded article while discharging the air remaining in the metal mold.
- 3. A method of producing a bottle according to claim 1, wherein fine gaps or holes are formed in a portion of the metal mold forming the bottom portion of the pre-molded article.
- 4. A method of producing a bottle according to claim 1, wherein the male metal mold is constituted by a core metal mold and a follower metal mold surrounding the core metal mold and is allowed to be opened and closed coaxially therewith, the barrel portion with bottom is molded by the core metal mold and the female metal mold, and the mouth portion is molded by the core metal mold and the follower metal mold.
- 5. A method of producing a bottle by biaxially stretch-blow-molding a pre-molded article for blow molding that is obtainable through the steps of:extruding a molten thermoplastic resin and cutting it into a mass of melt of nearly a predetermined amount; arranging a male metal mold and a female metal mold so as to move relative to each other and feeding the mass of melt into the metal mold; compression-molding the mass of melt into a pre-molded article having a barrel portion with bottom while discharging the air remaining in the metal mold; and cooling and solidifying the compression-molded article and discharging the molded article out of the metal mold.
- 6. A method of producing a bottle by biaxially stretch-blow-molding a pre-molded article for blow molding that is obtainable through the steps of:extruding a molten thermoplastic resin and cutting it into a mass of melt of nearly a predetermined amount; arranging a male metal mold and a female metal mold so as to move relative to each other and feeding the mass of melt into the metal mold, said metal mold having fine gaps or holes in a portion of the metal mold forming the bottom portion of the pre-molded article; compression-molding the mass of melt into a pre-molded article having a barrel portion with bottom in the metal mold; and cooling and solidifying the compression-molded article and discharging the molded article out of the metal mold.
- 7. A method of producing a bottle by biaxially stretch-blow-molding a pre-molded article for blow molding that is obtainable through the steps of:extruding a molten thermoplastic resin and cutting it into a mass of melt of nearly a predetermined amount; arranging a male metal mold and a female metal mold so as to move relative to each other and feeding the mass of melt into the metal mold, said male metal mold being constituted by a core metal mold and a follower metal mold surrounding the core metal mold and being allowed to be opened and closed coaxially therewith; compression-molding the mass of melt into a pre-molded article having a mouth portion and a barrel portion with bottom by using the metal mold, the barrel portion with bottom being molded by the core metal mold and the female metal mold, the mouth portion being molded by the core metal mold and the follower metal mold; and cooling and solidifying the compression-molded article and discharging the molded article out of the metal mold.
