Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention concerns a method of blowing and filling a container ( 120 ) from a preform, the method comprising: —placing a preform within a mold ( 140 ), —stretching the preform —injecting a liquid into the preform after the stretching has started so as to cause expansion of the preform within the mold, thereby obtaining a blown and filled container ( 120 ), —capping the blown and filled container ( 120 ).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method of blowing and filling a container from preform, the method comprising: placing a preform within a mold; stretching the preform; injecting a liquid into the preform after stretching has started so as to cause expansion of the preform within the mold, thereby obtaining a blown and filled container; capping the blown and filled container; and the capping is performed within a predetermined period of time after obtaining the blown and filled container so as to increase pressure inside the capped container to between 0.3 and 1.5 bar above atmospheric pressure resulting from shrinking of the capped container. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein capping is performed between 1 second and 2 minutes after obtaining the blown and filled container. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein capping is preformed between 1 second and 30 seconds after obtaining the blown and filled container. 4. A method of blowing and filling a container from preform, the method comprising: placing a preform within a mold; stretching the preform; injecting a liquid into the preform after stretching has started so as to cause expansion of the preform within the mold, thereby obtaining a blown and filled container; capping the blown and filled container within a predetermined period of time after obtaining the blown and filled container; and shrinking the capped container so as to increase pressure inside the capped container to between 0.3 and 1.5 bar above atmospheric pressure. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein capping is performed between 1 second and 2 minutes after obtaining the blown and filled container. 6. The method of claim 4 , wherein capping is performed between 1 second and 30 seconds after obtaining the blown and filled container.
