Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は、ブロー成形を用いた耐熱容器の成形方法、それに用いる中間容器、中間容器成形金型およびその方法により成形される耐熱容器に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
一般に、二軸延伸ブロー容器と称される合成樹脂製の薄肉の包装容器は、射出あるいは押出成形によって得られた延伸適温のプリフォームを金型内に位置させ、容器の長手方向に相当する縦方向に延伸させるとともに、内部に吹込んだ気体の圧力によって横方向に膨張させることが行われている。
【0003】
ところで、前述の容器に用いられる材質の選択によっては、高温状態の内容物を充填した場合、胴部が変形するという問題があった。
【0004】
そこで従来では、特開平3−205124号公報に示されるような、ブロー成形方法が用いられている。
【0005】
このブロー成形においては、射出もしくは押出成形されたプリフォームを一次ブロー成形して、最終容器よりも大きめの中間容器を成形し、この中間容器を熱処理して熱収縮させた後、二次ブロー成形により最終容器を成形するようにしている。
【0006】
この成形方法によれば、二次ブロー成形前の熱処理によって、耐熱性を向上させることで、90℃の内容物の充填にも耐えることができる耐熱容器の成形が可能である。
【0007】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、前記耐熱容器においても、底部における耐熱性の向上という課題が残されていた。
そこで、現状では、通常の耐熱容器と同様に、二次ブロー成形時に上げ底部に特殊な形状のリブを成形して、機械的に補強していた。
【0008】
この場合、特殊な形状のリブによって機械的に補強するとともに、延伸されることによって耐熱性を上げているのであるが、延伸によるひずみの除去を行っていないため特殊な形状のリブによって補強された部分であっても、内容物充填時の熱による変形を完全に抑止することはできないという問題があった。
【0009】
これは、二次ブロー成形時に上げ底部の金型温度を上げて底部の熱処理を行おうとすると、上げ底型に対する底部の離型性が悪化することとなり、そのため底部において特殊な形状によって延伸されている部分も、単に延伸されただけで、アニーリング処理もしくはヒートセット処理等の熱処理がなされず、ひずみの残った状態となるからである。
【0010】
このため、成形直後の最終容器の上げ底形状にくらべ、内容物を充填した後の上げ底形状は、上げ底頂部の高さが低くなってしまい、商品価値を落とすというようなこともあった。
【0011】
本発明は、前記従来の問題点に着目してなされたもので、その目的は、中間容器の段階で、底部に上げ底部を形成する際に、上げ底部を部分的に延伸配向させ、その延伸配向された部分を次段階で熱処理することで、耐熱性を向上させることにある。
【0012】
【課題を解決するための手段】
前記目的を達成するため、第1の発明に係る耐熱容器の成形方法は、射出もしくは押出成形されたプリフォームを一次ブロー成形して中間容器を成形し、該中間容器を熱処理した後、二次ブロー成形して上げ底部を有する最終容器に成形する耐熱容器の成形方法において、
前記一次ブロー成形時に、中間容器の底部に上げ底部を形成し、この上げ底部に少なくとも中間容器の外方に向けて突出し、かつ、上げ底部の中心部から放射状に延びる複数の凸部を形成し、
前記中間容器の熱処理時に、該中間容器の上げ底部に形成された凸部も熱処理させ、
前記二次ブロー成形時に、前記中間容器の凸部と対応する領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させて最終容器の上げ底部に物性的な複数の耐熱補強部を形成し、
前記複数の耐熱補強部の各々は、前記最終容器の上げ底部の中心部から放射状に延びて形成され、
前記最終容器の上げ底部は、該上げ底部の中心から放射状に延びるリブを含まないことを特徴としている。
【0013】
第2の発明に係る耐熱容器の成形方法は、
前記中間容器の凸部は、上げ底部の中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びるリブであることを特徴としている。
【0014】
第3の発明に係る中間容器は、底部に上げ底部を備え、
前記上げ底部に少なくとも容器の外方に向けて突出し、かつ、上げ底部の中心部から放射状に延びる複数の凸部を備えることを特徴としている。
【0016】
の発明に係る耐熱容器は、射出もしくは押出成形されたプリフォームを一次ブロー成形して成形された中間容器を熱収縮させた後、二次ブロー成形して形成される、耐熱容器において、
底部に上げ底部を備え、
前記上げ底部は、その中心部から周囲の環状接地部へ放射状に延びる領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させた複数の物性的な耐熱補強部を備えるとともに、該上げ底部の中心から放射状に延びるリブを含まないことを特徴としている。
【0017】
の発明に係る耐熱容器は、
前記上げ底部は、同心円上で順次容器の内方に窪む複数の環状の機械的補強部を備えることを特徴としている。
【0018】
の発明に係る中間容器成形金型は、
前記中間容器の容器胴部形状を有する複数の割型部と、
上げ底部形状を有する上げ底型とを有し、
前記上げ底型が、少なくとも上げ底型の中心部から上げ底型と複数の割型部の合せ面方向へ放射状に延びる凹部を有することを特徴としている。
【0019】
【作用】
前記構成の第1の発明にあっては、一次ブロー成形時に中間容器の底部に上げ底部を形成し、この上げ底部に中間容器の外方に向けて突出する複数の凸部を形成することにより、中間容器の上げ底部に複数の凸部からなる延伸部分を形成することができ、この中間容器を熱処理する際に、上げ底部に形成した延伸部分も熱処理されて熱安定性が付与されることとなる。
【0020】
また、前述の熱処理された中間容器を、二次ブロー成形によって、
再びブロー成形することにより、前記上げ底部に形成された熱処理された凸部対応領域の延伸部分がさらに延伸されて他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸された複数の物性的な耐熱補強部が形成されることとなり、最終容器の上げ底部に熱処理を加えて離型性を悪化させることなく、耐熱性の高い、しかも強度の高い上げ底部が得られることとなる。
【0021】
したがって、高温の内容物を耐熱容器内に充填した場合であっても、上げ底部が熱によって変形したり、内容物の重量によって大きく変形したりすることを防止することができる。
【0022】
さらに、従来では、一次ブロー成形時における上げ底部の延伸度が低いために、中間容器を熱処理した際に、上げ底部にリング状の白化部が形成されることがあり、この白化部は高い耐熱性を有しているが、外観上から商品価値を下げることとなるという問題があり、これに対して前述のように中間容器の段階で上げ底部に凸部を形成して上げ底部に十分な延伸部分を形成することにより、十分に延伸させ、熱処理しても白化しにくい状態とすることができる。また、第1の発明にあっては、凸部を上げ底部の中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びるリブにて形成することにより、最終容器の上げ底部に中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させた複数の物性的な耐熱補強部を形成することができ、この中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる耐熱補強部の存在により高温の内容物の充填に際して上げ底部が大きく熱変形をおこすことなく、しかも内容物の重量によっても大きな変形をおこすことなく、強度を高めることができる。
【0023】
第2の発明にあっては、第1の発明の状態に加え、一次ブロー成形時において中間容器の凸部を上げ底部の中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びるリブにて形成することにより、最終容器の上げ底部に中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させた複数の物性的な耐熱補強部を形成することができ、この中心から周囲の環状接地部に延びる物性的な耐熱補強部の存在により高温の内容物の充填に際して上げ底部が大きく熱変形をおこすことなく、しかも内容物の重量によって大きな変形をおこすことなく補強度を高めることができる。
【0024】
第3の発明にあっては、上げ底部に容器の外方に向けて突出する複数の凸部を有する中間容器を形成することにより、熱処理時に前記凸部対応の延伸部分も熱処理して上げ底部の耐熱性を高めることができ、しかも二次ブロー成形時に前記凸部対応の延伸部分領域をさらに延伸して他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させて上げ底部の強度を高めることができる。また、中間容器の上げ底部に凸部対応の延伸部分を形成することにより、熱処理時における上げ底部の白化を防止して品質を向上させることができる。
【0026】
の発明にあっては、耐熱容器の上げ底部に中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させた複数の物性的な耐熱補強部を形成することにより、高温の内容物の充填に際して上げ底部が大きく熱変形をおこすことなく、しかも内容物の重量によって大きな変形をおこすことなく、強度を高めることができ、従来の耐熱容器に比し、上げ底部の頂部の高さが低くなるのを防止して品質を向上させることができる。また、第4の発明にあっては、凸部を上げ底部の中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びるリブにて形成することにより、最終容器の上げ底部に中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させた複数の物性的な耐熱補強部を形成することができ、この中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる耐熱補強部の存在により高温の内容物の充填に際して上げ底部が大きく熱変形をおこすことなく、しかも内容物の重量によっても大きな変形をおこすことなく、強度を高めることができる。
【0027】
の発明にあっては、第の発明の耐熱補強部に加え、上げ底部に同心円上で順次容器の内方に窪む複数の環状の機械的補強部を形成することにより、より一層上げ底部の強度を高めることができる。
【0028】
の発明にあっては、中間容器成形金型の上げ底型にその中心部から上げ底部と複数の割型部の合せ面に延びる凹部を形成することにより、一次ブロー成形時に中間容器の上げ底部に中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる容器外方に向かって突出する凸部を容易に形成することができる。
【0029】
【実施例】
以下、本発明の好適な実施例について、図面を参照して詳細に説明する。
【0030】
図1〜図3は、本発明の一実施例に係る耐熱容器を示す図である。
【0031】
この耐熱容器10は、例えばポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)を用いて、二軸延伸ブロー成形により、成形されたもので、上端側の開口部を含むリップ部12と、このリップ部12から下方につながる肩部14と、下端側の底部16と、この底部16から上方につながるヒール部18と、このヒール部18と肩部14との間に形成された胴部20とが一体に成形されたものとなっている。
【0032】
底部16は、周囲の環状接地部22と、この環状接地部22に囲まれた中央部分の上げ底部24とから構成され、周囲の環状接地部22により自立性をもたせるようにしている。
【0033】
上げ底部24は、環状接地部22から連なって中心部が容器内方に突出する状態となっており、その中心部には、ブロー成形時のセンタリング凹部26が形成されている。また、上げ底部24には、その中心部から周囲の環状接地部22へと放射状にのびる領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させた複数の高延伸部28からなる物性的な耐熱補強部30が設けられている。この高延伸部28からなる耐熱補強部30は、図3に示すように、比較的厚肉の厚肉部32間にあって薄肉状になっている。また、高延伸部28は、一次ブロー成形時に延伸された後、熱処理されて、強度が高くかつ熱安定性の高い状態とされている。
【0034】
したがって、この放射状にのびる熱安定性の高い複数の高延伸部28が上げ底部24の物性的な補強リブとして機能することとなるため、高温の内容物を充填した場合にも高延伸部28の熱安定性により、内容物の温度によって上げ底部24が変形を防止し、しかも内容物の重量に対しても高延伸部28によって上げ底部24が放射状に補強された状態となっているため上げ底部24の変形は防止されることとなる。その結果、従来の耐熱容器に比し、高温の内容物を充填した後においても上げ底部24の頂部の高さが低くなるようなことはなく、品質を向上させることができる。
【0035】
図4から図6には、前記実施例における耐熱容器10を成形するための中間容器の実施例を示す図である。
【0036】
この中間容器40は、一次ブロー成形品で、最終容器である耐熱容器10よりも大きく形成され、この中間容器40を熱処理して熱収縮させ、その後二次ブロー成形を行って最終容器の形状に成形するようになっている。この中間容器40においても、最終容器である耐熱容器10と同様に、開口部を含むリップ部12、肩部42、胴部44、ヒール部46および底部48からなる中空体として形成されている。
【0037】
この中間容器40の底部48には、周囲の環状接地部50と、その内側で容器の内方へ突出する上げ底部52が形成され、環状接地部50によって自立性がもたせられ、次工程での搬送性が高められるようになっている。
【0038】
また、上げ底部52の中心部には、一次ブロー成形時のセンタリング凹部54が形成され、そのセンタリング凹部54の形成された上げ底部52の中心部から周囲の環状接地部50に伸びる複数の放射状のリブ56が中間容器40の外方に向けて突出形成されている。この上げ底部52は、通常一次ブロー成形時にあまり延伸されることなく成形される部分であり、その後熱処理をほどこしても、あまり熱安定性が高まらない状態となっているが、本実施例のように上げ底部52に中間容器40の外方に突出するリブ56を形成することにより、リブ56の両側部60から谷部62にかけて十分延伸されることとなり、後の熱処理時にこの延伸部分が十分に延伸されていることから熱安定性が高められることとなり、耐熱性が向上することとなる。また、このリブ56によって上げ底部52に放射状の延伸部分が形成されることとなり、この放射状の延伸部が最終容器として成形された際に放射状の物性的なリブとして働くこととなる。
【0039】
図7及び図8は、中間容器の他の実施例を示す図である。この中間容器70の上げ底部72に、中間容器70の内方に突出する多数の円形の凸部74を成形することにより、各凸部74の頂部76の周囲に中間容器の外方に向けて突出する凸部75からなる延伸部分を形成し、この上げ底部72の全体に存在する延伸部分がその後熱処理されることによって熱安定性が付与され、しかも上げ底部72の全体を補強することとなる。
【0040】
また、通常の中間容器における上げ底部のようにあまり延伸されない状態で成形されると、熱処理時に上げ底部に白化が生じやすいが、本実施例のように、上げ底部72の全体に十分な延伸部を存在させることにより、熱処理時における上げ底部の白化を抑制することができる。
【0041】
図9及び図10は、本発明の他の実施例に係る耐熱容器を示す図である。
【0042】
この耐熱容器80は、上げ底部82に、その中心部から周囲の環状接地部22へと放射状に延びる領域を他の上げ底部82の領域よりも延伸させた複数の高延伸部28からなる物性的な耐熱補強部30を設けると共に、上げ底部82に同心円状で順次耐熱容器80の内方に窪む複数の環状の機械的補強部84を形成することにより、放射状の高延伸部28からなる耐熱補強部30による放射方向での物性的なリブ効果に加え、複数の環状の機械的補強部84により周方向でのリブ効果を付与することにより、上げ底部82の補強をより一層確実にしている。
【0043】
次に、図11を中心に図1〜図3に示した実施例における耐熱容器の製造方法について説明する。
【0044】
まず、図11の(1)に示すように、例えばPETを射出キャビティ90内に射出してリップ部12を備えた有底筒状のプリフォーム92を成形する。
【0045】
次に、(2)に示すように、中間容器成形金型94を用いて一次ブロ−成形を行い、中間容器40を成形する。この中間容器40は、図4から図6にも示すように、開口部を含むリップ部12、肩部42、胴部44、ヒール部部46及び底部48からなる最終容器よりも大きな中空体として成形されるようになっている。また、底部48には、周囲の環状接地部50と、この環状接地部50に囲まれた上げ底部52が形成されている。
【0046】
中間容器成形金型94は、胴部44の形状を有する複数、本実施例においては2つの割型部96と、上げ底部52の形状を有する上げ底型98から構成され、この上げ底型98には、図12に示すように、上げ底型98の中心部から、上げ底型98と複数の割型部96の合わせ面100の方向へ伸びる放射状の複数の凹部102が形成されている。
【0047】
そして、前記上げ底型98を有する中間容器成形金型94を用いてプリフォーム92をブロー成形することにより、中間容器40の上げ底部52に、上げ底部52の中心部から周囲の環状接地部50に伸びる複数の放射状のリブ56が中間容器40の外方に向けた状態で突出形成されることとなる。このように、通常は延伸されにくい上げ底部52に放射状のリブ56を形成することにより、リブ56の両側部60から谷部62にかけて十分な延伸部分を形成することができる。
【0048】
次いで、前述の一次ブロー成形により成形された中間容器40を、(3)に示すように、熱処理して熱収縮させ、最終容器よりも若干小さめの容器104を形成する。この熱処理時に、複数の放射状のリブ56によって上げ底部52に形成された延伸部分が十分に延伸されていることから、この延伸部分の熱安定性が高められることとなり、耐熱性が向上することとなる。また、前述の中間容器40を熱処理工程に供給搬送する場合、中間容器の底部に底部48の環状接地部50が形成されているため、自立した状態で搬送することができ、搬送性が向上することとなる。
【0049】
そして、前述の熱収縮されて最終容器よりも若干小さめに形成された容器104を、最終容器成形金型106内で二次ブロー成形することにより、最終容器としての耐熱容器10が成形されることとなる。最終容器成形金型106には、上げ底型108が設けられ、この上げ底型108により、耐熱容器10の底部16に上げ底部24が成形されるようになっている。この上げ底部24には、その中心部から周囲の環状接地部22へと放射状に延びる領域が他の上げ底部24の領域よりも延伸された複数の高延伸部28からなる物性的な耐熱補強部30が設けられている。この複数の高延伸部28からなる物性的な耐熱補強部30は、中間容器40の上げ底部52に形成されたリブ56からなる延伸部分が、熱処理によって熱安定性が高められ、更に二次ブロー成形時に延伸されることにより、熱安定性の高い高延伸部28が放射状に配置された物性的なリブとして働くこととなり、高温の内容物を充填した場合でも、熱変形を生じることがなく、しかも内容物の重量によって変形することもない。
【0050】
また、上げ底部24には、十分に延伸された高延伸部28が放射状に存在することから、熱処理によっても上げ底部24に白化が生じるのを抑止することが可能である。
【0051】
本発明は、前記実施例に限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨の範囲内において種々の変形実施が可能である。
【0052】
例えば、図7及び図8に示す中間容器を二次ブロー成形して最終容器を成形する場合に、最終容器成形金型により最終容器の上げ底部に同心円上で順次内方に窪む複数の環状の機械的補強部を形成することも可能である。
【0053】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように第1の発明によれば、一次ブロー成形時に中間容器の底部に上げ底部を形成し、この上げ底部に中間容器の外方に向けて突出する複数の凸部を形成することにより、中間容器の上げ底部に複数の凸部からなる延伸部分を形成することができ、この中間容器を熱処理する際に、上げ底部に形成した延伸部分も熱処理されて熱安定性が付与することができるという効果がある。
【0054】
また、前述の熱処理された中間容器を、二次ブロー成形によって、
再びブロー成形することにより、前記上げ底部に形成された熱処理された凸部対応領域の延伸部分がさらに延伸されて他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸された複数の物性的な耐熱補強部が形成されることとなり、最終容器の上げ底部に熱処理を加えて離型性を悪化させることなく、耐熱性の高い、しかも強度の高い上げ底部が得られるという効果がある。
【0055】
したがって、高温の内容物を耐熱容器内に充填した場合であっても、上げ底部が熱によって変形したり、内容物の重量によって大きく変形したりすることを防止することができるという効果がある。
【0056】
さらに、従来では、一次ブロー成形時における上げ底部の延伸度が低いために、中間容器を熱処理した際に、上げ底部にリング状の白化部が形成されることがあり、この白化部は高い耐熱性を有しているが、外観上から商品価値を下げることとなるという問題があり、これに対して前述のように中間容器の段階で上げ底部に凸部を形成して上げ底部に十分な延伸部分を形成することにより、十分に延伸させ、熱処理しても白化しにくい状態とすることができるという効果がある。また、第1の発明によれば、凸部を上げ底部の中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びるリブにて形成することにより、最終容器の上げ底部に中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させた複数の物性的な耐熱補強部を形成することができ、この中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる耐熱補強部の存在により高温の内容物の充填に際して上げ底部が大きく熱変形をおこすことなく、しかも内容物の重量によっても大きな変形をおこすことなく、強度を高めることができるという効果がある。
【0057】
第2の発明によれば、第1の発明の状態に加え、一次ブロー成形時において中間容器の凸部を上げ底部の中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びるリブにて形成することにより、最終容器の上げ底部に中心部から周囲の環状接地部に延びる領域を他の上げ底部の領域よりも延伸させた複数の物性的な耐熱補強部を形成することができ、この中心から周囲の環状接地部に延びる物性的な耐熱補強部の存在により高温の内容物の充填に際して上げ底部が大きく熱変形をおこすことなく、しかも内容物の重量によっても大きな変形をおこすことなく、補強度を高めることができるという効果がある。
【0058】

[Industrial application fields]
The present invention relates to a heat-resistant container molding method using blow molding, an intermediate container used therefor, an intermediate container molding die, and a heat-resistant container molded by the method.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Generally, a thin packaging container made of a synthetic resin called a biaxially stretched blow container has a stretchable temperature preform obtained by injection or extrusion molding placed in a mold, and is a longitudinal direction corresponding to the longitudinal direction of the container. The film is stretched in the direction and expanded in the lateral direction by the pressure of the gas blown inside.
[0003]
By the way, depending on the selection of the material used for the container described above, there is a problem that the body part is deformed when the contents in a high temperature state are filled.
[0004]
Therefore, conventionally, a blow molding method as shown in JP-A-3-205124 has been used.
[0005]
In this blow molding, a preform that has been injection-molded or extruded is subjected to primary blow molding to form an intermediate container that is larger than the final container. Thus, the final container is formed.
[0006]
According to this molding method, it is possible to mold a heat-resistant container that can withstand filling of contents at 90 ° C. by improving the heat resistance by heat treatment before secondary blow molding.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the heat resistant container also has a problem of improving heat resistance at the bottom .
Therefore, at present, like a normal heat-resistant container, a rib having a special shape is formed on the raised bottom during secondary blow molding, and mechanically reinforced.
[0008]
In this case, it is mechanically reinforced with a specially shaped rib, and the heat resistance is improved by being stretched, but it is reinforced with a specially shaped rib because it does not remove strain due to stretching. Even if it is a part, there existed a problem that the deformation | transformation by the heat | fever at the time of the content filling could not be suppressed completely.
[0009]
This is because when the mold temperature of the raised bottom part is raised during the secondary blow molding and the heat treatment of the bottom part is performed, the releasability of the bottom part with respect to the raised bottom mold is deteriorated, so that the bottom part is stretched by a special shape. This is because the portion is also simply stretched and is not subjected to a heat treatment such as an annealing treatment or a heat setting treatment, and remains in a strained state.
[0010]
For this reason, compared with the raised bottom shape of the final container immediately after molding, the raised bottom shape after filling the contents has the height of the raised bottom top portion being lowered, and the commercial value is sometimes lowered.
[0011]
The present invention has been made paying attention to the above-mentioned conventional problems, and its purpose is to partially stretch and raise the raised bottom when forming the raised bottom on the bottom at the stage of the intermediate container. By heat-treating the oriented portion in the next step, heat resistance is improved.
[0012]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, a method for forming a heat-resistant container according to the first invention is the method of performing primary blow molding of an injection or extrusion molded preform to form an intermediate container, heat-treating the intermediate container, In a molding method of a heat-resistant container that is molded into a final container having a raised bottom by blow molding,
Wherein when the primary blow molding to form a raised portion on the bottom of the intermediate container, at least protrudes toward the outside of the intermediate container, and forming a plurality of protrusions extending radially from the central portion of the raised portion to the raised portion And
During the heat treatment of the intermediate container, the convex portion formed on the raised bottom of the intermediate container is also heat treated,
At the time of the secondary blow molding, a region corresponding to the convex portion of the intermediate container is stretched more than the region of the other raised bottom portion to form a plurality of heat resistant reinforcing portions having physical properties on the raised bottom portion of the final container,
Each of the plurality of heat-resistant reinforcing portions is formed to extend radially from the center portion of the raised bottom portion of the final container,
The raised bottom portion of the final container does not include ribs extending radially from the center of the raised bottom portion.
[0013]
The method for forming a heat-resistant container according to the second invention is as follows:
The convex portion of the intermediate container is a rib extending from the central portion of the raised bottom portion to the surrounding annular grounding portion.
[0014]
The intermediate container according to the third invention comprises a raised bottom at the bottom,
The projected toward at least the container outwardly of the raised portion, and is characterized in that it comprises a plurality of projections extending radially from the central portion of the raised portion.
[0016]
A heat-resistant container according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is a heat-resistant container formed by subjecting an intermediate container formed by primary blow molding to an injection or extrusion-molded preform, followed by secondary blow molding,
Provide a raised bottom at the bottom,
The raised bottom includes a plurality of physical heat-resistant reinforcing portions in which a region extending radially from the central portion to the surrounding annular grounding portion is extended more than a region of the other raised bottom, and radially from the center of the raised bottom. It does not include a rib extending to
[0017]

[0020]
In addition, the above-mentioned heat-treated intermediate container is subjected to secondary blow molding,
By performing blow molding again, the stretched portion of the heat-treated convex corresponding region formed on the raised bottom is further stretched to form a plurality of physical heat-resistant reinforcing portions that are stretched more than other raised bottom regions. As a result, a heat-treated and high-strength raised bottom portion can be obtained without deteriorating the releasability by applying heat treatment to the raised bottom portion of the final container.
[0021]
Therefore, even when the high-temperature contents are filled in the heat-resistant container, the raised bottom portion can be prevented from being deformed by heat or greatly deformed by the weight of the contents.
[0022]
Furthermore, conventionally, since the degree of stretching of the raised bottom portion at the time of primary blow molding is low, when the intermediate container is heat-treated, a ring-shaped whitened portion may be formed on the raised bottom portion, and this whitened portion has a high heat resistance. However, there is a problem that the commercial value is lowered from the appearance, and in contrast to this, a convex part is formed on the raised bottom part at the stage of the intermediate container as described above, and the raised bottom part is sufficient. By forming the stretched portion, the stretched portion can be sufficiently stretched and hardly whitened even by heat treatment. In the first invention, the convex portion is formed by a rib extending from the center portion of the raised bottom portion to the surrounding annular grounding portion, so that the raised bottom portion of the final container is moved from the center portion to the surrounding annular grounding portion. It is possible to form a plurality of physical heat-resistant reinforcing portions in which the extending region is extended more than the other raised bottom region, and the high-temperature contents are provided by the presence of the heat-resistant reinforcing portion extending from the central portion to the surrounding annular grounding portion. The strength can be increased without causing significant thermal deformation of the raised bottom portion during filling and without significant deformation due to the weight of the contents.

The presence of a physical heat-resistant reinforcing part extending to the grounding part makes it possible to increase the degree of reinforcement without causing significant thermal deformation of the raised bottom when filling high-temperature contents and without causing significant deformation due to the weight of the contents. .
[0024]
In the third invention, by forming an intermediate container having a plurality of convex portions protruding outward from the container at the raised bottom portion, the elongated portion corresponding to the convex portion is also heat treated during the heat treatment. In addition, it is possible to increase the strength of the raised bottom portion by further stretching the stretched partial region corresponding to the convex portion and stretching the region more than the other raised bottom region at the time of secondary blow molding. Further, by forming an extended portion corresponding to the convex portion on the raised bottom portion of the intermediate container, whitening of the raised bottom portion during heat treatment can be prevented and quality can be improved.
[0026]
In the fourth aspect of the present invention, a plurality of physical heat-resistant reinforcing portions are formed by extending a region extending from the center portion to the surrounding annular grounding portion at the raised bottom portion of the heat-resistant container as compared with the other raised bottom region.
