Application equipment for applying mold release lubricant to glass bottle forming molds

This invention eliminates the need for a manual work of applying a mold release lubricant to blow molds and bottom molds by workers and reduces a burden on workers involved in the mold release lubricant application work while also increasing the safety of workers during mold release lubricant application, reducing downtime associated with the mold release lubricant application work, reducing changes in the mold release lubricant application locations and variations in amount of application for the blow molds, and, furthermore, contributing to a glass bottle quality stabilization. The application equipment () for applying the mold release lubricant is structured to apply the mold release lubricant to at least either a part of blow mold forming surfaces () provided on the blow molds (), or the entire surface of bottom mold forming surfaces () provided on the bottom molds () located in the lower part of a finish molds (), or both.
