Next, a method for forming the tube container of the present invention will be described.
First, a method for forming the container body A will be described.
The molding is performed by compression molding. The outline is that the shoulder pad 3 and the sleeve 2 are mounted on a mandrel, extruded from an extruder, and a molten resin in a ring shape is molded in a mold. A container body in which the head portion 1, the shoulder pad 3, and the sleeve 2 are integrated can be obtained.

  Prior to the formation of the container body A, the shoulder pad 3 is formed by pressing the laminated aluminum sheet 3a on a mold having the inner peripheral surface of the head portion 1, and the sleeve 2 is formed by extrusion as is well known. , Using a piece cut to a predetermined length.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the main part of the compression molding machine 30 includes an upper mold 31, a lower mold 33 including a core 32, and a mandrel 34, and a sleeve 2 is mounted around the mandrel 34. The shoulder pad 3 is attached to the tip.

In molding, first, the lower mold 33 is clamped to the upper mold 31, and a cavity 35 is formed by the upper mold 31 and the core 32. The cavity 35 is extruded from the extruder and formed into a ring shape. Molten resin 36 is inserted.
Next, the mandrel 34 is moved and inserted into the upper mold 31 to press the shoulder pad 3 against the core 32, and at the same time, the ring-shaped molten resin 36 is compressed, and as shown in FIG. The head portion 1 is formed according to the shape.
At that time, the shoulder pad 3 is welded to the inner peripheral surface of the head portion 1 by the molten resin 36, and the sleeve 2 is welded to the side edge of the head portion 1.

When the mandrel 34 is raised after the head portion 1 is cooled and solidified, the head portion 1 and the sleeve 2 into which the shoulder pad 3 is inserted are obtained.
Next, when the contents are stored and the ends of the sleeve 2 are bonded, the container body A storing the contents can be obtained.
