Abstract
Abstract This invention provides a method of inserting a piece into a mold for molding a mouth of a preform which utilizes a cavity surface of a mold for molding an outer side of a mouth and a cavity recess for molding a support ring to support a heat resistant short tubular piece within the mold, wherein spacers (3), (4) and (5) in the form of projections are integrally formed at fixed intervals on the outer side of the piece (1) and the fore end of the projection (2). The piece (1) is inserted into a central portion of an opened mold (10) for molding a mouth, after which the mold is closed, the projections (2) and (21) are inserted into the cavity recess (14), the spacers (3), (4) and (5) are pressed against the cavity surface, and the piece (1) is held and secured to the central portion of the cavity (18) by the mold through the spacers.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
145 words
A method for molding a mouth for a container, said method comprises the steps of: placing an insert piece into a mouth molding mold, said mouth molding mold including a cavity recess for molding a support ring forming part of said mouth, said insert piece including a plurality of spacer projections formed integrally with said insert piece and projecting therefrom at regular intervals about the parameter of said insert piece, said insert piece being placed in said mouth molding mold at a location wherein said spacer projections extend into said cavity recess of said mold and are pressed against the surface of said cavity recess so as to fixedly hold said insert piece in a predetermined location in said mold; and pouring a molding material into said mold and around the outside of said insert piece to embed said insert piece inside said molding material.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
145 words
A method for molding a mouth for a container, said method comprises the steps of: placing an insert piece into a mouth molding mold, said mouth molding mold including a cavity recess for molding a support ring forming part of said mouth, said insert piece including a plurality of spacer projections formed integrally with said insert piece and projecting therefrom at regular intervals about the parameter of said insert piece, said insert piece being placed in said mouth molding mold at a location wherein said spacer projections extend into said cavity recess of said mold and are pressed against the surface of said cavity recess so as to fixedly hold said insert piece in a predetermined location in said mold; and pouring a molding material into said mold and around the outside of said insert piece to embed said insert piece inside said molding material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
51 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein said insert piece includes a generally tubular body and a flange extending outwardly from said body, a plurality of through holes being formed in said flange at spaced locations to permit said molding material to flow therethrough, said spacer projections extending from said flange.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
The method according to claim 5, wherein said insert piece is formed of synthetic resins having a high degree of heat resistance.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method according to claim 5, wherein said insert piece is formed of inorganic material.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
64 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein said insert piece further includes an additional plurality of projections extending outward from said insert piece and being formed integrally therewith, said additional projections contacting a portion of said mold removed from said cavity recess when said insert piece is placed in said mold to further hold said insert piece in said predetermined location in said mold.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
75 words
The method according to claim 1, further including the step of placing a core mold inside of said insert piece before said pouring step, said core mold being inside of and spaced from said insert piece and wherein said pouring step further comprises pouring said molding material around the inside of said insert piece between said insert piece and said core mold so as to fully imbed said insert piece inside of said molding material.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
37 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein said insert piece has a tubular body and wherein said spacer projections extend radially outwardly from said tubular body and also, in a direction generally parallel to said tubular body.
