Aconveyer for treating hollow bodies, comprising several identical treatment stations ( ) that process at least one hollow body, whereby the respective treatment station for a given treatment stage communicates with a pressure source via distribution means that include a tight revolving extention. The invention is characterized in that the machine includes at least two independent and equivalent pressure sources (A , A ) for the given treatment stage. The invention is also characterized in that it is divided up into the same number of treatment stations ( ) as the number of pressure sources existing for the machine and in that the distribution device ( ) are such that each pressure source (A , A ) is associated with a specific group.

Conveyor for treating hollow bodies comprising an advanced pressure distribution circuit

Device for processing a container (,) using a low pressure plasma, of the type having at least one processing station (,) comprising a fixed cavity (,) connected to a vacuum source by way of a vacuum circuit (,) and of the type in which processing station (,) has a mobile cover (,) equipped with means (,) for supporting container (,) such that the introduction of the container into cavity (,) is assured by displacement of cover (,) with respect to cavity (,), characterized in that cover (,) has a connecting channel (,) which, when cover (,) is in closed position sealing cavity (,) places cavity (,) in connection with a fixed end (,) of vacuum circuit (,).

An apparatus for the heat treatment of the necks 1 of performs 2 includes a rotatable mandrel 3, which is inserted in and engaged with the neck of the preform to rotate it, a fixed protective skirt 4, and a heater 5 situated at the level of the neck. A sliding weight 28 is applied to the upper end of the neck during the heat treatment.

Apparatus for heat treatment of preform necks

A heat resistant container is made from a PET preform by crystallizing its neck (10), heating just its body to the softening temperature of PET, blow molding an intermediate container (21) in a cooled mold (5.degree. to 40.degree. C.) with a larger volume than that of the final container to be obtained, heating the intermediate container to 180.degree.-220.degree. C. for 1 to 15 min, and then molding it a second time to its final dimensions at a temperature of 80.degree.-100.degree. C. for 2 to 6 sec.
