Abstract
Abstract A method for molding a bulge comprises a step of jetting a pressure fluid from a nozzle into a shaped blank fitted thereto thereby causing air trapped in the shaped blank to be agitated into air bubbles to allow the fluid pressure to be applied onto the inner surface of the shaped blank during discharging the liquid from within the blank.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
136 words
A method for molding a bulge from a shaped blank having a neck portion and an entirely unoccupied interior comprising the steps of inserting a nozzle into the shaped blank through the neck portion to seal the neck portion to the nozzle, and jetting a pressure liquid from the nozzle into the entirely unoccupied interior of the shaped blank to cause air trapped in the shaped blank to be agitated into air bubbles to allow the liquid pressure to be applied to the inner surface of the shaped blank with a uniform distribution to mold a bulge, and controlling the pressure in the shaped blank by discharging, during molding, the liquid from within the blank through an interspace between the nozzle and neck portion by breaking the seal at the neck portion of the shaped blank.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
136 words
A method for molding a bulge from a shaped blank having a neck portion and an entirely unoccupied interior comprising the steps of inserting a nozzle into the shaped blank through the neck portion to seal the neck portion to the nozzle, and jetting a pressure liquid from the nozzle into the entirely unoccupied interior of the shaped blank to cause air trapped in the shaped blank to be agitated into air bubbles to allow the liquid pressure to be applied to the inner surface of the shaped blank with a uniform distribution to mold a bulge, and controlling the pressure in the shaped blank by discharging, during molding, the liquid from within the blank through an interspace between the nozzle and neck portion by breaking the seal at the neck portion of the shaped blank.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method according to claim 1 in which said step of discharging further comprises applying pressure by a mold onto the outer surface of the shaped blank to mold a bulge while supplying a jet flow of pressure liquid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
A method for molding a bulge according to claim 1 wherein said shaped blank is of substantially bulb-shape.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method according to claim 3 in which said step of discharging comprises applying pressure by a mold onto the outer surface of the shaped blank to mold a bulge while jetting said pressure liquid into said shaped blank.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
40 words
The method according to claims 1, 2, 3 or 4 in which a flow of pressure liquid jetted into the shaped blank and a discharge flow of the pressure liquid from within the shaped blank are selected to be constant.
