The various features shown in the embodiments described below can be combined with one another. In addition, the invention is established independently for each feature.

本発明の実施形態に係る中空容器1の製造方法は、図1に示すように、ロータリーブロー成形機2、ロータリー分離装置3及びシール装置4を備えた製造装置5により実施される。本発明において、製造される中空容器1は、図3及び図4に示すように、本体部11と、口部12と、この口部12と連続する先細り形状のカバー部13とを備えた形状であり、カバー部13の先端に形成される流通路14が封止され、密封された状態となっている。中空容器1は、まずロータリーブロー成形機2によって連鎖状中空成形品10が成形され、この連鎖状中空成形品10がロータリー分離装置3によって個々の中空容器1に分離され、その後、各中空容器1の流通路14がシール装置4によって封止されることで製造される。以下、まず各装置の構成を説明し、その後、これらの装置を用いた中空容器1の製造方法を詳細に説明する。   The method of manufacturing the hollow container 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention is implemented by a manufacturing apparatus 5 provided with a rotary blow molding machine 2, a rotary separating device 3 and a sealing device 4 as shown in FIG. In the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the hollow container 1 to be manufactured has a shape provided with a main body 11, a mouth 12, and a tapered cover 13 continuous with the mouth 12. The flow passage 14 formed at the tip of the cover 13 is sealed and sealed. In the hollow container 1, first, the chain-like hollow molded article 10 is formed by the rotary blow molding machine 2, and the chain-like hollow molded article 10 is separated into the individual hollow containers 1 by the rotary separating device 3. The flow passage 14 is sealed by the sealing device 4. Hereinafter, first, the configuration of each device will be described, and then, a method of manufacturing the hollow container 1 using these devices will be described in detail.

なお、図1における2点鎖線の矢印は、中空容器1の進行方向を示し、以下の説明において、この中空容器1の進行方向を前方向とする。また、ロータリーブロー成形機2の回転盤20とロータリー分離装置3の回転盤30の径方向外側を、それぞれ上方向とし、前方向及び上方向に垂直な方向を側方とする。   In addition, the arrow of the dashed-two dotted line in FIG. 1 shows the advancing direction of the hollow container 1, and let the advancing direction of this hollow container 1 be a front direction in the following description. Further, the radially outer side of the rotary disc 20 of the rotary blow molding machine 2 and the outer side of the rotary disc 30 of the rotary separating device 3 are referred to as the upper direction, and the direction perpendicular to the forward direction and the upper direction is the side.

ロータリーブロー成形機2は、図1に示すように、図示しない回転駆動手段によって水平方向の回転軸を中心に回転する回転盤20と、回転盤20の外周面に等間隔で配設された複数組の分割形式の金型21とを備える。ロータリーブロー成形機2は、金型21に押し出しヘッド22により押し出されたパリソン23を流し込み、逐次金型21を型閉じしてパリソン23内に加圧流体を導入し、キャビティ24に沿って膨張させたのち、型開きを行うことにより、中空容器1が連結された連鎖状中空成形品10を連続成形する。   As shown in FIG. 1, the rotary blow molding machine 2 includes a rotary disc 20 which is rotated about a horizontal rotational axis by rotary drive means (not shown), and a plurality of the rotary blow molding machine A set of divided molds 21 is provided.

ここで、連鎖状中空成形品10は、複数の中空容器1と、加圧流体を吹き込む連結部材15(図3参照)が交互に連結されたものである。連結部材15は、側方から吹込ノズルを突き刺して隣接する一方の中空容器1(図2及び図3では右側)の流通路14へ加圧流体を流通させるために形成される直方体形状の吹込部15aと、他方の中空容器1(図2及び図3では左側)と連結する薄板状の連結部15bとにより構成される。なお、カバー部13に直接吹込ノズルを突き刺して吹込みを行うと、ピンを刺した際の屑(異物)が容器内に侵入してしまう恐れがある。しかしながら、本実施形態の構成では、後の工程で取り除かれる吹込部15aを介して加圧流体を吹き込むよう構成し、吹き込む空間と中空容器1の空間を分離しているため、異物の侵入を防止することが可能となっている。このように空間を分離する目的もあり、流通路14の径は小径となっている。   Here, the chain-like hollow molded article 10 is formed by alternately connecting a plurality of hollow containers 1 and a connecting member 15 (see FIG. 3) into which a pressurized fluid is blown. The connection member 15 is a rectangular parallelepiped blowout portion formed to pierce the blowout nozzle from the side and distribute pressurized fluid to the flow passage 14 of the adjacent hollow container 1 (right side in FIGS. 2 and 3) by piercing the blowoff nozzle. It is comprised by 15a and the thin-plate shaped connection part 15b connected with the other hollow container 1 (left side in FIG.2 and FIG.3). In addition, if the blow nozzle is pierced directly into the cover portion 13 to perform blow-in, there is a risk that debris (foreign matter) when the pin is pierced may intrude into the container. However, in the configuration of the present embodiment, the pressurized fluid is blown in through the blowing portion 15a which is removed in a later step, and the space of the blowing and the hollow container 1 are separated, so the intrusion of foreign matter is prevented. It is possible to Thus, there is also the purpose of separating the space, and the diameter of the flow passage 14 is reduced.

Here, the diameter of the flow passage forming portion 28 corresponds to the outer diameter of the flow passage 14, and the diameter of the portion forming the opening 12 corresponds to the outer diameter of the opening 12 after cutting the cover 13. . Further, the connecting member forming portion 27 includes a blowout portion forming portion 27a forming the blowing portion 15a and a connecting portion forming portion 27b forming the connecting portion 15b. In the present embodiment, one container forming portion 26 and one connecting member forming portion 27 are formed in each mold 21 of the rotary blow molding machine 2, and the container forming portion 26 and the connecting member forming portion 27 are hollow. The bottom seal molding portion 29 that forms the bottom seal portion 11 a of the bottom surface of the container 1 is disposed to be separated. Then, the pressurized fluid introduced into the connecting member forming portion 27 of one die 21 does not flow to the container forming portion 26 of the same die 21, but through the flow passage forming portion 28 of the adjacent die 21. The container molding portion 26 of the adjacent mold 21 is blown. However, the hollow container 1 and the connecting member 15 communicating with each other in one mold 21 may be formed.

次に、ロータリー分離装置3は、図1に示すように、図示しない回転駆動手段によって水平方向の回転軸を中心に回転する回転盤30と、回転盤30の外周面に等間隔で配設された複数の分離ユニット31を備える。ロータリー分離装置3は、複数の分離ユニット31によって逐次連鎖状中空成形品10における隣接する中空容器1同士を連結している連結部材15を切除して中空容器1を分離したのち、所定の回転部位にて中空容器1をシール装置4に放出するよう構成される。   Next, as shown in FIG. 1, the rotary separation device 3 is disposed at equal intervals on the rotary disc 30 that rotates around a horizontal rotation axis by rotational drive means (not shown) and on the outer peripheral surface of the rotary disc 30. A plurality of separation units 31 are provided. The rotary separation device 3 cuts off the connecting member 15 connecting the adjacent hollow containers 1 in the chain-like hollow molded article 10 sequentially by a plurality of separation units 31 and separates the hollow containers 1 and then performs predetermined rotation parts. And the hollow container 1 is discharged to the sealing device 4.

分離ユニット31は、図5〜図7に示すように、下部保持台32と、カバー部保持台33と、本体部挟持部材34と、切断部材35と、連結部材押さえ機構36と、カバー部押さえ機構37とを備える。   As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, the separation unit 31 includes a lower holding base 32, a cover holding base 33, a main body holding member 34, a cutting member 35, a connection member pressing mechanism 36, and a cover holding And a mechanism 37.

下部保持台32は、中空容器1の本体部11の下部を保持するものであり、中空容器1の下端部を載置する載置部32aと、中空容器1を真空吸着する吸着手段32bとを備える。この下部保持台32は、中空容器1をシール装置4に放出する際、上方に向かって動作するよう構成される。   The lower holding table 32 holds the lower portion of the main body 11 of the hollow container 1 and mounts the mounting portion 32 a on which the lower end of the hollow container 1 is mounted, and the suction unit 32 b vacuum suctions the hollow container 1. Prepare. The lower support 32 is configured to operate upward when discharging the hollow container 1 to the sealing device 4.

カバー部保持台33は、下部保持台32の前方(図5〜図7の左側)に配置され、上方に延びる突出部33aにより中空容器1のカバー部13を保持する部材である。   The cover holding stand 33 is a member which is disposed in front of the lower holding stand 32 (on the left side in FIGS. 5 to 7) and holds the cover 13 of the hollow container 1 by means of an upwardly extending projection 33a.

本体部挟持部材34は、カバー部保持台33上に配置される板状部材34aと、各板状部材34aから上方に延びる挟持片34bを備え、一対の挟持片34bにより本体部11の側面を挟持する部材であり、図6に示す非挟持位置と、図7に示す挟持位置との間で動作可能となっている。   The main body holding member 34 includes a plate-like member 34a disposed on the cover holding base 33, and holding pieces 34b extending upward from the respective plate-like members 34a. It is a member for holding, and is operable between the non-holding position shown in FIG. 6 and the holding position shown in FIG.

切断部材35は、中空容器1先端の流通路14を切断する板状の部材であり、図8A及び図8Bに示すように、その上方の端面に、中空容器1のカバー部13と連結部材15を連結する流通路14を切断する切断部35aと、流通路14の周囲に形成されたバリ14bを切断することなく押圧する押圧部35bとを備える。本実施形態において、切断部35aは片刃であり(図5参照)、押圧部35bの一対の先端部分35tに対して下方の位置に、側面視(図8A及び図8Bにおける正面視)がV字形状となるよう形成される。つまり、切断部35aは、押圧部35bの先端部分35tに対して切断方向(切断部材35が流通路14を切断する際に移動する方向)とは反対の位置に形成されている。また、押圧部35bは、切断部35aの両側に隣接して形成され、先端部分35tから下方へ向かって傾斜するよう形成される。これら切断部35aと押圧部35bにより、切断部材35の一端側の端面は側面視(図8A及び図8Bにおける正面視)がM字形状となるよう形成されている。   The cutting member 35 is a plate-like member for cutting the flow passage 14 at the tip of the hollow container 1, and as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the cover 13 of the hollow container 1 and the connecting member 15 And a pressing portion 35 b for pressing without cutting the burrs 14 b formed around the flow passage 14. In the present embodiment, the cutting portion 35a is a single-edged blade (see FIG. 5), and the V-shaped side view (front view in FIGS. 8A and 8B) is located below the pair of tip portions 35t of the pressing portion 35b. It is formed to be shaped. That is, the cutting portion 35a is formed at a position opposite to the cutting direction (the direction in which the cutting member 35 moves when cutting the flow passage 14) with respect to the tip portion 35t of the pressing portion 35b. The pressing portion 35b is formed adjacent to both sides of the cutting portion 35a, and is formed to be inclined downward from the tip portion 35t. The end face on one end side of the cutting member 35 is formed by the cutting part 35a and the pressing part 35b such that the side view (front view in FIGS. 8A and 8B) has an M shape.

切断部材35は、図8A及び図8Bに示すように、図示しない駆動手段により上方に向かって移動することで、切断部35aが流通路14を切断するとともに、押圧部35bがバリ14bを押し上げるよう構成されている。なお、本実施形態においては、切断部35aが押圧部35bの一対の先端部分35tに対して切断方向とは反対の位置に形成されていることにより、中空容器1の載置される位置が多少ずれていた場合や、連鎖状中空成形体10がバタつく場合であっても、流通路14を適切に切断することができる。また、押圧部35bの先端部分35tが、切断部35aが流通路14に当接する前に、バリ14bを押圧するようになっていることから、位置がずれていても、バリ14bが先に切断されてしまうことがないようになっている。   As shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the cutting member 35 moves upward by a driving unit (not shown) so that the cutting portion 35a cuts the flow passage 14 and the pressing portion 35b pushes up the burr 14b. It is configured. In the present embodiment, since the cutting portion 35a is formed at a position opposite to the cutting direction with respect to the pair of tip portions 35t of the pressing portion 35b, the position at which the hollow container 1 is mounted is somewhat Even in the case of misalignment or the case where the chain-like hollow molded body 10 flutters, the flow passage 14 can be cut appropriately. Further, since the tip portion 35t of the pressing portion 35b presses the burr 14b before the cutting portion 35a abuts on the flow passage 14, even if the position is shifted, the burr 14b is cut first. It is supposed that it will not be done.

It is possible to move between the positions.

カバー部押さえ機構37は、図5〜図8に示すように、中空容器1のカバー部13の上方に位置づけられて、カバー部13の上方への移動を規制する機構であり、側方に向かって延びる円柱形状の押さえピン37aと、押さえピン37aを保持する直方体形状の駆動部材37bとを備える。押さえピン37aは、駆動部材37bが駆動することにより、図6及び図8Aに示す非押さえ位置と、図7及び図8Bに示す押さえ位置との間で移動することが可能となっている。   The cover portion pressing mechanism 37 is a mechanism positioned above the cover portion 13 of the hollow container 1 to restrict the upward movement of the cover portion 13 as shown in FIGS.

The pressing pin 37a can be moved between the non-pressing position shown in FIGS. 6 and 8A and the pressing position shown in FIGS. 7 and 8B by driving the drive member 37b.

次に、シール装置4は、ロータリー分離装置3によって分離された中空容器1の切断箇所である流通路14の封止して中空容器1を密封する装置であり、図1に示すように、回転盤40と、複数組の保持部材41と、複数の熱風発生手段42と、挟着手段43とを備える。   Next, the sealing device 4 is a device for sealing the flow passage 14 which is a cut portion of the hollow container 1 separated by the rotary separating device 3 to seal the hollow container 1, and as shown in FIG. A panel 40, a plurality of sets of holding members 41, a plurality of hot air generating means 42, and a clamping means 43 are provided.

In FIG. 9, for convenience, the clamping member 43 a operates in the circumferential direction of the rotary disc 40 to clamp the flow passage 14, but in actuality, it is in the radial direction of the rotary disc 40. It is configured to be attached.

次に、上記の装置を用いた中空容器1の製造方法を説明する。本実施形態において、中空容器1の製造方法は、ブロー成形工程と、分離工程と、封止工程(シール工程)とを備える。   Next, the manufacturing method of the hollow container 1 using said apparatus is demonstrated. In the present embodiment, the method of manufacturing the hollow container 1 includes a blow molding step, a separation step, and a sealing step (seal step).

<ブロー成形工程>
まず、ブロー成形工程では、ロータリーブロー成形機2の回転盤20を回転させ、金型21に押し出しヘッド22により押し出されたパリソン23を流し込み、逐次金型21を型閉じして、導入溝25から吹込ノズルを介してパリソン23内に加圧流体を導入する。すると、キャビティ24に沿ってパリソン23が膨張し、容器成形部26及び連結部材成形部27により中空容器1及び連結部材15が形成される。そして、その後型開きを行うことにより、中空容器1が連結された連鎖状中空成形品10が連続成形される。
<Blow molding process>
First, in the blow molding process, the rotary disc 20 of the rotary blow molding machine 2 is rotated, the parison 23 extruded by the extrusion head 22 is poured into the mold 21, the mold 21 is closed sequentially, and A pressurized fluid is introduced into the parison 23 via the blow nozzle. Then, the parison 23 expands along the cavity 24, and the hollow container 1 and the connecting member 15 are formed by the container forming portion 26 and the connecting member forming portion 27. Then, by performing mold opening thereafter, the chain-like hollow molded article 10 to which the hollow container 1 is connected is continuously molded.

その後、ロータリーブロー成形機2から搬送された連鎖状中空成形品10は、図1に示すように、滑車6を経由して搬送路7上を搬送され、搬送路7の搬送先に配置された滑車8を経由してロータリー分離装置3に運ばれ、分離工程に移行する。ここで、本実施形態においては、金型21の連結部材成形部27が連結部成形部27bを備えており、成形される連鎖状中空成形品10は、図4に示すように、中空容器1の底シール部11aと連結部材15の吹込部15aとの間には薄板状の連結部15bを備えた構成となっている。そのため、底シール部11aと連結部15bとの間、吹込部15aと連結部15bとの間にそれぞれ折れ曲がり可能なヒンジ17a及び17bが形成される。本実施形態の連鎖状中空成形品10は、このように、各中空容器1と連結部材15の組ごとに2つのヒンジ17a,17bを設けていることになり、連結部15bがなくヒンジが1つしかない場合と比べて、1つのヒンジ当たりの連結角度を緩やかにすることができ、ヒンジに掛かる力を分散させることが可能となる(図4参照)。このような構成により、連鎖状中空成形品10が搬送中にちぎれてしまうことを防止することが可能となっている。   Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 1, the chained hollow molded article 10 conveyed from the rotary blow molding machine 2 is conveyed on the conveyance path 7 via the pulley 6 and disposed at the conveyance destination of the conveyance path 7. It is conveyed to the rotary separating device 3 via the pulley 8 and shifts to the separating step. Here, in the present embodiment, the connecting member forming portion 27 of the mold 21 includes the connecting portion forming portion 27 b, and the chain-like hollow molded article 10 to be formed is a hollow container 1 as shown in FIG. A thin plate-like connecting portion 15 b is provided between the bottom seal portion 11 a and the blow-in portion 15 a of the connecting member 15. Therefore, hinges 17a and 17b which can be bent are respectively formed between the bottom seal portion 11a and the connection portion 15b and between the blow-in portion 15a and the connection portion 15b. Thus, the chain-like hollow molded article 10 of the present embodiment is provided with two hinges 17a and 17b for each pair of the hollow container 1 and the connecting member 15, and there is no connecting portion 15b. Compared with the case of only connecting, it is possible to make the connecting angle per hinge loose and to disperse the force applied to the hinge (see FIG. 4). Such a configuration makes it possible to prevent the chained hollow molded article 10 from being torn during transportation.

また、本実施形態では、ロータリーブロー成形機2から搬送された連鎖状中空成形品10は、一旦搬送路7上を搬送させてからロータリー分離装置3に入るようになっていることで、ロータリー分離装置3に搬送されてくる連鎖状中空成形品10の振動(バタつき)が低減され、ロータリー分離装置3の各分離ユニット31に各中空容器1を精度良く配置させることが可能となっている。加えて、搬送路7上を搬送させることで、ブロー成形後の連鎖状中空成形品10を冷却することも可能となっている。連鎖状中空成形品10を冷却することで、次の分離工程において分離する際、バリ14bが剥がれやすくなるという効果を有している。また、封止工程において、中空容器1を温度が高いまま封止すると、減圧変形によって中空容器1に凹みや変形が生じるおそれがあるが、連鎖状中空成形品10を冷却することによって、このような凹みや変形を抑制することも可能となっている。なお、本実施形態の工程に、別途冷却工程を追加することも可能である。   Further, in the present embodiment, the chain-like hollow molded article 10 conveyed from the rotary blow molding machine 2 is once conveyed on the conveyance path 7 and then enters the rotary separation device 3 so that the rotary separation is performed. Vibration (with a flutter) of the chain-like hollow molded product 10 conveyed to the device 3 is reduced, and it is possible to accurately arrange the hollow containers 1 in the separation units 31 of the rotary separation device 3. In addition, it is also possible to cool the chain-like hollow molded article 10 after blow molding by transporting on the transport path 7. By cooling the chain-like hollow molded article 10, the burrs 14b are easily peeled off at the time of separation in the next separation step. In addition, in the sealing step, if the hollow container 1 is sealed while the temperature is high, there is a possibility that the hollow container 1 may be dented or deformed by reduced pressure deformation, but such cooling is performed by cooling the chain-like hollow molded article 10 It is also possible to suppress such depressions and deformations. In addition, it is also possible to add a cooling process separately to the process of this embodiment.

なお、本実施形態のように、中空容器1と連結部材15の間に連結部15bを設け、ヒンジを複数設ける構成によって、ロータリー分離装置3へ配置する中空容器1の寸法幅(高さ)の制限を緩和することができる。つまり、連結部15bの長さを変更することで、複数のロータリーブロー成形機2(複数種類の容器)に対して、1つのロータリー分離装置3を兼用することも可能となっている。具体的には、中空容器1の高さ寸法(つまり、金型の容器成形部26の寸法)を例えば±30%変化させても、これに対応して連結部15bの長さを変更することで、同一のロータリー分離装置3を用いることが可能となっている。   As in the present embodiment, the connecting portion 15b is provided between the hollow container 1 and the connecting member 15, and a plurality of hinges are provided, so that the dimensional width (height) of the hollow container 1 disposed to the rotary separating device 3 can be obtained. The restriction can be relaxed. That is, by changing the length of the connecting portion 15b, it is possible to use one rotary separation device 3 for a plurality of rotary blow molding machines 2 (a plurality of types of containers). Specifically, even if the height dimension of the hollow container 1 (that is, the dimension of the container molding portion 26 of the mold) is changed by, for example, ± 30%, the length of the connecting portion 15b is changed correspondingly. Thus, it is possible to use the same rotary separation device 3.

<分離工程>
次に、分離工程では、ロータリー分離装置3の回転盤30を回転させ、ロータリーブロー成形機2から搬送された連鎖状中空成形品10の各中空容器1を分離ユニット31に配置させる。この際、中空容器1の本体部11の下部は下部保持台32上に載置され、カバー部13はカバー部保持台33上に載置される。次に、吸着手段32bにより中空容器1の本体部11を吸着し、本体部挟持部材34を図6に示す非挟持位置から図7に示す挟持位置に移動させ、これらよって、中空容器1を分離ユニット31に固定する。
<Separation process>
Next, in the separation step, the rotary disk 30 of the rotary separation device 3 is rotated, and the hollow containers 1 of the chain-like hollow molded article 10 transported from the rotary blow molding machine 2 are arranged in the separation unit 31. At this time, the lower portion of the main body 11 of the hollow container 1 is placed on the lower holder 32, and the cover 13 is placed on the cover holder 33. Next, the main body 11 of the hollow container 1 is adsorbed by the adsorption means 32b, and the main body holding member 34 is moved from the non-holding position shown in FIG. 6 to the holding position shown in FIG. It is fixed to the unit 31.

次に、連結部材押さえ機構36の押さえ部材36dを図6に示す非押さえ位置から図7に示す押さえ位置に移動させ、カバー部押さえ機構37の押さえピン37aを図6及び図8Aに示す非押さえ位置から図7及び図8Bに示す押さえ位置に移動させる。そして、この状態で切断部材35を上方に向かって移動させることで、中空容器1先端の流通路14が切断されるようになっている。なお、前方の中空容器1の底シール部11aと連結部15bとは、押さえ部材36dの前端押さえ部36d1が連結部15bを押圧することでちぎれ、前方の中空容器1と連結部材15の間も分離するようになっている(図5参照)。   Next, the pressing member 36d of the connecting member pressing mechanism 36 is moved from the non-pressing position shown in FIG. 6 to the pressing position shown in FIG. 7 and the pressing pin 37a of the cover portion pressing mechanism 37 is shown in FIGS. The position is moved to the pressing position shown in FIGS. 7 and 8B. Then, by moving the cutting member 35 upward in this state, the flow passage 14 at the tip of the hollow container 1 is cut. The bottom seal portion 11a and the connecting portion 15b of the front hollow container 1 are torn by the front end pressing portion 36d1 of the pressing member 36d pressing the connecting portion 15b, and also between the front hollow container 1 and the connecting member 15 It is designed to be separated (see FIG. 5).

ところで、本実施形態において、流通路14は次の封止工程において封止しやすいよう、口部12の径よりも小径となるよう成形されている。したがって、流通路14の径はパリソン23の径よりもかなり小さくなるため、流通路14の周囲にはほぼ必然的にバリ14bが発生し(図3参照)、バリ14bは、図3に示すように、流通路14の周囲から、カバー部13の外側に沿って延びるような形状となる。ただし、バリ14bの形状は、金型に賦形することで成形されるものではなく、成形品ごとにばらつきがあるものである。そして、このバリ14bは、流通路14又はカバー部13に付着し、流通路14の切断後にも、中空容器1側に切断されたバリ14bの一部が残存してしまうおそれがあった。特に、流通路14の両側のバリに偏りが生じた場合に、小さい方のバリが簡単には取れづらい状態となっていた。   By the way, in the present embodiment, the flow passage 14 is formed to have a diameter smaller than the diameter of the opening 12 so as to be easily sealed in the next sealing step. Therefore, since the diameter of the flow passage 14 is considerably smaller than the diameter of the parison 23, the burrs 14b are almost inevitably generated around the flow passage 14 (see FIG. 3), and the burrs 14b are shown in FIG. In addition, it extends from the periphery of the flow passage 14 along the outside of the cover portion 13. However, the shape of the burrs 14 b is not one formed by shaping on the mold, and there is variation among molded articles. Then, the burrs 14 b adhere to the flow passage 14 or the cover portion 13, and even after the flow passage 14 is cut, a part of the burrs 14 b cut to the hollow container 1 side may remain. In particular, when the burrs on both sides of the flow passage 14 are uneven, it is difficult to easily remove the smaller one.

そこで、本実施形態の切断部材35は、流通路14を切断する切断部35aの両側に、バリ14bを押圧する押圧部35bを設けている。この押圧部35bは、上記のようなバリ14bを切断することなく押圧するため、バリ14bは付着していた流通路14又はカバー部13からせん断力によって剥がされ、中空容器1側にバリ14bが残存しないようになっている。   Therefore, in the cutting member 35 of the present embodiment, pressing portions 35 b for pressing the burrs 14 b are provided on both sides of the cutting portion 35 a for cutting the flow passage 14. In order to press the pressing portion 35b without cutting the burr 14b as described above, the burr 14b is peeled off from the flow passage 14 or the cover portion 13 which has been attached by a shearing force, and the burr 14b is formed on the hollow container 1 side. It does not survive.

その後、連結部材15が分離された中空容器1を、押さえピン37aを非押さえ位置に移動させ、下部保持台32を上昇させることによって持ち上げ、吸着手段32bの吸着を解除して、回転盤30の回転を利用して隣接するシール装置4の保持部材41へと放出する。   Thereafter, the hollow container 1 from which the connecting member 15 has been separated is lifted by moving the pressing pin 37a to the non-pressing position and raising the lower support 32 to release the suction of the suction means 32b. The rotation is used to discharge the holding member 41 of the adjacent sealing device 4.

<封止工程>
次に、封止工程では、図9に示すように、複数の熱風発生手段42により中空容器1の流通路14に順次熱風を当てて、流通路14を軟化(溶融)させる。そして、溶融した流通路14を挟着手段43の挟着部材43aが挟着することで、中空容器1を封止する。
<Sealing process>
Next, in the sealing step, as shown in FIG. 9, hot air is sequentially applied to the flow passage 14 of the hollow container 1 by the plurality of hot air generating means 42 to soften (melt) the flow passage 14. Then, the hollow container 1 is sealed by sandwiching the fused flow path 14 with the sandwiching member 43 a of the sandwiching means 43.

封止工程を終えた中空容器1は、適宜の検査工程を経て、梱包される。   The hollow container 1 which finished the sealing process is packed through an appropriate inspection process.

以上のような中空容器1の製造方法により、バリ14bが適切に除去され密閉された中空容器1が製造される。   According to the manufacturing method of the hollow container 1 as described above, the hollow container 1 in which the burrs 14 b are appropriately removed and sealed is manufactured.

なお、本発明は、以下の態様でも実施可能である。
・上述した実施形態において、切断部材35は、図8Aに示すように、側面視がM字形状となる構成であったが、他の構成とすることも可能である。具体的には、例えば、図10Aに示すように、切断部35aを上記実施形態と同様V字形状とし、押圧部35bを水平とすることや、図10Bに示すように、切断部35aを水平にするとともに押圧部35bよりも下方の位置に設定し、押圧部35bを傾斜させることができる。また、図10Cに示すように、切断部35aと押圧部35bの境界部分に突起35tを設けることや、図10Dに示すように、単に刃を備えた切断部35aと切断不能な押圧部35bとが面一で連続する構成とすることも可能である。
・上述した実施形態においては、中空容器1はロータリーブロー成形機2及びロータリー分離装置3により連続的に形成されるものであったが、単一の金型21により順次製造する構成とすることも可能である。この場合も、加圧流体を吹き込む吹込部15aは流通路14に隣接して配置される。そして、この場合にも、中空容器1と連結部材15とを切断する切断部材35は、切断部35aと切断できない押圧部35bを備えていることが好適である。
The present invention can also be practiced in the following modes.
