To solve a problem associated with formation of a transparent window portion in a biaxially stretch blow molded container by a nozzle structure of an injection molding apparatus, provided is a biaxially stretch blow molded container formed with a clearly transparent window portion in longitudinal strip shape by effectively preventing mixture of colored resin to window portion. Injection molding apparatus includes in nozzle portion a longitudinal groove flow path, wherein a transparent B resin flows. By, for example, reducing and increasing, respectively, the width and depth of the longitudinal groove flow path on the downstream side, and engraving slits in an inner mandrel and even in a front end portion of a stopper pin, flowability of the B resin in a horizontal direction is enhanced.

Container with synthetic resin window, preform, and preform injection molding apparatus

To solve a problem associated with formation of a transparent window portion in a biaxially stretch blow molded container by a nozzle structure of an injection molding apparatus, provided is a biaxially stretch blow molded container that is formed with a clearly transparent window portion in a longitudinal strip shape by effectively preventing mixture and cut-in of a colored resin to the window portion. In a predetermined range extending from an upstream end to a predetermined downstream position of a flow path including a cylindrical flow path and a reduced-diameter flow path formed in a nozzle portion, a pair of guiding ribs in the form of longitudinal ridges is arranged in line to partition the flow path in a circumferential direction, and a longitudinal groove flow path is formed between the pair of guiding ribs. A molten B resin is supplied to the longitudinal groove flow path, and a molten A resin is supplied to the cylindrical flow path excluding the longitudinal groove flow path. Thus, the longitudinal strip-shaped flow path of the B resin interrupts the cylindrical flow path of the A resin in the circumferential direction.

An injection molded test-tube-shaped preform, which is subjected to biaxial stretch blow molding, includes a circumferential wall including a longitudinal strip-shaped portion that is made of a transparent or a semi-transparent B resin and that is formed in a longitudinal strip shape penetrating the circumferential wall in a circumferentially predetermined position in the circumferential wall over a predetermined height range. A remaining portion of the circumferential wall excluding the longitudinal strip-shaped portion is made of an A resin that is obtained by coloring a synthetic resin. A portion of the B resin constituting the longitudinal strip-shaped portion flows around an opposite side to the circumferentially predetermined position in which the longitudinal strip-shaped portion is formed, to be laminated in the vicinity of a portion of the circumferential wall made of the A resin that is close to an inner circumferential surface of the circumferential wall.

A problem to be solved by this invention is to control the above-described problem of delamination in the laminated and biaxially drawn, blow molded bottle. A major means of this invention to solve this problem is a biaxially drawn, blow molded bottle characterized in that vertical connecting zones having no intermediate layer and having substrate layers welded directly with each other are formed in parallel in a circumferential direction and in a plural number along an axial direction of the bottle and are disposed on both right and left sides of each intermediate layer segment to be formed in this height range, and that horizontal connecting zones having no intermediate layer and having substrate layers welded directly with each other are also formed in parallel in an axial direction and in a plural number along a circumferential direction of the bottle and are disposed on both upper and lower sides of each intermediate layer segment to be formed, thus allowing the intermediate layer to be segmentalized in the circumferential and axial directions by both the vertical and horizontal connecting zones.

Laminated synthetic resin bottle, injection molding device, and process for molding a laminated preform

A laminated bottle with a gas barrier resin layer arranged between polyester resins layers is provided. The gas barrier resin layer includes a plurality of quadrangular segments with two sides extending along the bottle axis and two sides extending around the bottle axis, wherein the segments are arranged at a distance to each other via connecting layers which connect the inner layer and the outer layer.
