Abstract
A laminating blow molding method for making a hollow article includes steps of: laminating a resin sheet on an outer surface of a parison extruded from a path between a die head and a core; sandwiching the parison with the resin sheet between a pair of mold pieces constituting a mold while heating the mold to a temperature exceeding softening temperatures of the resin sheet and the parison, one of the mold pieces having shifting members at side portions thereof; closing the mold so that the parison with the resin sheet is held inside the mold, and moving the shifting members to the other of the mold pieces so that overhangs at both ends of the parison and resin sheet are pressed rearwardly to shift rearwardly burrs which are pressed out from the mold; and blowing the parison to perform blow molding. Thereafter, the mold is cooled and the molded article is taken out. In the method, a front side of the molded article is formed smoothly.
