20110318232 | OXYGEN SCAVENGING SYSTEM FOR A CONTAINER - A container having a hydrogen generator and catalyst disposed or otherwise incorporated in components of the container. The container further comprises a system for providing at least a portion of the hydrogen generator and/or catalyst in an area defined within the closure of the container for improved performance. | 12-29-2011 |
20140263339 | CONTAINER FINISH FOR METAL LUG CLOSURE - A container assembly including a container and a closure. The container includes a polymeric body and a polymeric finish. The polymeric finish includes a plurality of threads. The closure includes a plurality of metallic lugs configured to cooperate with the plurality of threads to couple the closure to the polymeric finish. | 09-18-2014 |
20140306384 | MOLDING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR APPLYING POSITIVE PRESSURE TO MOLDED CONTAINER - A method of forming a container includes blow molding a primary form of the container inside a primary mold. The primary form has an exterior surface. The method also includes applying a fluid to the exterior surface of the primary form to shrink the primary form and to form a shrunken form of the container. Furthermore, the method includes blow molding a secondary form of the container from the shrunken form inside a secondary mold. | 10-16-2014 |
20140312537 | CONTAINER FORMED VIA PLURAL BLOW MOLDING - A system for forming a container from a preform includes a first mold operable to receive the preform and operable to blow mold a first form of the container from the preform. The system also includes a second mold operable to receive the first form and operable to blow mold a second form of the container from the first form. The preform, the first form, and the second form each include a substantially common transitional wall. Also, the first form can include various features that ensure that material will be distributed as desired throughout the container, to ensure high wall strength, and to ensure high crystallinity. | 10-23-2014 |
20140312538 | PLURAL BLOW UTILIZATION OF COUNTER STRETCH ROD AND/OR BASE PUSHUP - A molding system for molding a container includes a first blow mold operable for blow molding a first form of the container and a second blow mold operable for blow molding a second form of the container. The system further includes a counter stretch rod and/or a base pushup operable for reducing a height of the first form of the container before blow molding the second form of the container. A corresponding method of forming a container is also disclosed. | 10-23-2014 |
20140333013 | PLURAL BLOW MOLDING WITH SERVO CONTROLS - A system for forming a container from a preform includes a first mold having a plurality of first portions that cooperate to define a first internal surface against which the preform is blown for forming a first form. The system also includes a second mold having a plurality of second portions that cooperate to define a second internal surface against which the first form is blown for forming a second form. Also, the system includes a mold servo motor that actuates the plurality of first portions relative to each other and/or actuates the plurality of second portions relative to each other. Furthermore, the system includes a controller that controls the mold servo motor for controlled actuation of the plurality of first portions and/or the plurality of second portions. | 11-13-2014 |
20150246754 | Container Finish For Metal Lug Closure - A container assembly including a container and a metallic closure. The container includes a polymeric body and a polymeric finish. The polymeric finish includes a plurality of threads. A lug lock is associated with each one of the plurality of threads. The metallic closure includes at least three metallic lugs configured to cooperate with the plurality of threads to couple the metallic closure to the polymeric finish. | 09-03-2015 |
20150273431 | Oxygen Scavenging System For A Container - A container having a hydrogen generator and catalyst disposed or otherwise incorporated in components of the container. The container further comprises a system for providing at least a portion of the hydrogen generator and/or catalyst in an area defined within the closure of the container for improved performance. | 10-01-2015 |
