Abstract
Abstract A parison of thermoplastic material is extruded through a nozzle, preliminary to blowing, the parison being receivable in a closable blowmold. The portions of the parison which are clamped in the blowmold should have a uniform thickness and, to compensate for different degrees of stretch at various locations, the parison-producing nozzle head is formed with a plurality of flaps or rollers selectively displaceable into the thermoplastic stream to reduce the wall thickness of the emerging parison. According to the invention, the wall thickness of the parison is only partially reduced at predetermined locations about the periphery, during predetermined time intervals in the course of the parison-extrusion process.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
160 words
An apparatus for the blow-molding of a hollow body comprising: an extruder for displacing thermoplastic material; a nozzle head connected with said extruder for forming a parison from the displaced material; a blow mold receiving said parison for the blowing thereof to produce said body; an auxiliary nozzle mounted on said head and formed with a nozzle passage traversed by the thermoplastic material forming said parison; and wall means juxtaposed with only a portion of the periphery of said parison and displaceable into said passage to partially obstruct the same and reduce the wall thickness of the parison at a corresponding location for a predetermined time interval during the formation of the parison corresponding to the displacement of said wall means into said passage, said auxiliary nozzle having a flexible steel liner extending all around said passage, said wall means including a flap deforming only a portion of said liner inwardly and thereby bending said liner inwardly at said location.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
160 words
An apparatus for the blow-molding of a hollow body comprising: an extruder for displacing thermoplastic material; a nozzle head connected with said extruder for forming a parison from the displaced material; a blow mold receiving said parison for the blowing thereof to produce said body; an auxiliary nozzle mounted on said head and formed with a nozzle passage traversed by the thermoplastic material forming said parison; and wall means juxtaposed with only a portion of the periphery of said parison and displaceable into said passage to partially obstruct the same and reduce the wall thickness of the parison at a corresponding location for a predetermined time interval during the formation of the parison corresponding to the displacement of said wall means into said passage, said auxiliary nozzle having a flexible steel liner extending all around said passage, said wall means including a flap deforming only a portion of said liner inwardly and thereby bending said liner inwardly at said location.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
The apparatus defined in claim 1 wherein said flap in swingable, further comprising a piston-and-cylinder device operatively connected to said flap for displacing same.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
The apparatus defined in claim 2, further comprising a hinge connecting said device to said flap.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
13 words
The apparatus defined in claim 1 wherein said liner is coated with polytetrafluoroethylene.
