The invention relates to a packaging system (1) and to a method for using the same. The packaging system (1) comprises a packaging module (2), a first transport device (3) for feeding articles to the packaging module (2) in a first transport direction (TR1), and a second transport device (4) for feeding flat packaging materials (20) arranged in a first upright orientation (22sv1) in a second transport direction (TR2). The packaging system (1) comprises a handling device (5) for arranging the flat packaging materials (20) on the second transport device (4), and at least one displacement unit (8), configured to displace a plurality of upright packaging materials (20) relative to one another. The displacement unit (8) has vertically oriented side walls (9) and a support surface (10), wherein an angle differing from 90 degrees is formed between each of the side walls (9) and the support surface (10).

Packaging system and method for feeding flat packaging materials to a packaging system

Apparatus () for reshaping plastic preforms () into plastic containers () has a blow moulding device () which has at least two side parts () and a base mould () which form a hollow space inside which the plastic preforms () are reshaped into the plastic containers (), wherein the apparatus has a changing device () which is suitable and intended either to remove the complete blow moulding device () or only parts () of the blow moulding device () from the blow mould supports () thereof and/or to arrange them on the blow mould supports (), wherein the base mould () is arranged on a base mounting (), and in a changing mode, through a lifting movement (H) and in particular a lifting and/or lowering of the base mounting (), the base mould () can be connected to the base mounting () or can be disconnected from the base mounting (), and between the base mounting () and the base mould () at least one first disconnectable media connection () is provided, by means of which a flowable medium can be supplied to the base mould () and/or by means of which the flowable medium can be discharged from the base mould (). According to the invention the media connection () between the base mounting () and the base mould () can also be made and/or can be broken by the lifting and/or lowering of the base mounting ().

Apparatus and method for coupling and uncoupling media couplings on the base mould

A method and apparatus for operating an apparatus for transforming plastic parisons into plastic containers, wherein the apparatus has a movable carrier, on which a plurality of transforming stations are arranged for transforming plastic parisons into plastic containers. The transforming stations each have at least two mould supports on which blow mould parts are arranged, which blow mould parts are components of a blow mould and form a hollow space within which the plastic parisons can be expanded into the plastic containers by application of a flowable medium. The mould supports are pivotable with respect to one another for opening and closing the blow mould and wherein furthermore the transforming stations have a latching mechanism which is configured to latch the two mould supports at least at times to one another such that an opening movement of the blow mould is prevented.
