Abstract
A blow mold assembly is disclosed having removable neck insert mold components for forming features of a container for engaging a removable container closure and manually operable retention devices for releasably retaining the neck insert mold components with mating mold components of the mold assembly. Advantageously, each manually operable retention device includes a clamp mechanism movable between a release position and a clamp position by manual operation and the clamp mechanism is effective to resist forces acting on the clamp to move the clamp to a release position when the clamp is in the clamp position. Each manually operable retention device is retained with an associated mating mold component when a neck insert mold component is removed from or installed to the mold assembly.
