Abstract
A heat-resistant container molding apparatus and method which are compact and inexpensive and can reliably increase the crystallinity, reduce the residual stress in a container filled with a hot content such as thermally sterilized fruit juice, and prevent a thermal deformation with improved container stability at a raised temperature. The apparatus has a receiving and removing unit for receiving primary moldings obtained by blow-molding preforms and for removing final products, a heat treatment section for heating the primary moldings by bringing the primary moldings into contact with the inner wall of a heat treatment mold while pressurizing the interior of the primary moldings within the heat treatment mold, a final molding section for blow molding intermittent moldings into final products within a final blow mold, and a rotary plate, neck support fixing plate and neck support member for conveying the moldings through the receiving and removing unit, heat treatment section and final molding section.
