A neck ring guide for aligning neck ring sections in a glassware forming machine has a center body and a pair of spaced parallel runners coupled to the center body for receipt in guide slots in the neck ring sections. Keepers on the outboard sides of the runners retain the runners in the guide slots. Instead of keepers, the runners may be retained in the guide slots by roll pins on the neck ring sections engaged in retainer slots in the runners.

A beam shaper is implemented to seal an OLED. The beam shaper comprises a first and second lens and a beam shaper. Changing the relative position of the first, second lens and beam shaper relative to each other enables the beam shaper to generate laser beams with different shapes and intensity profiles.

A method and a machine for the production of hollow glassware articles, by the blow-and-blow, press-and-blow, press-and-blow paste mold and direct-press processes in a glassware forming machine including single or multiple machine sections each having single or multiple-cavity, comprising: forming a parison in an inverted orientation, into a blank mold and a first transferable and open-able neck ring mold held by an inverting apparatus having a first and a second diametrically opposed arms, each arm holding a transferable and open-able neck ring mold; inverting the parison held by the first transferable and open-able neck ring mold, by rotating the first arm 180° to an upright orientation at an intermediate station, while the second arm with a second transferable and open-able neck ring mold is simultaneously placed at the parison forming station; transferring the first transferable and open-able neck ring mold holding the parison in an upright orientation, from the intermediate station, to a blow mold station, by a transference apparatus; releasing the first parison into a blow mold, and turning back the first transferable and open-able neck ring mold empty to the first arm of the inverting apparatus, at the intermediate station to be placed again at the parison forming station by rotating the first arm additional 180°, completing a 360° turn, while the second arm reaches to the intermediate station; blowing the parison into a blow mold to form a finished article; and transferring the finished article in an upright orientation, once the blow mold is opened, by a take out apparatus, to place it at a dead plate or at a carrying conveyor.

An I.S. machine has a blankmold which is open at the top and includes inner and outer annular top sealing surfaces. Associated with the blankmold is a baffle including a body having a cup shaped portion closed with a vertical cylindrical bore open at the bottom, an annular bottom sealing surface for sealingly engaging the blankmold outer annular top sealing surface, and a top having a hole. A tubular sleeve communicates with the hole and extends vertically upwardly from the top of the body. A piston has a cylindrical head including a top surface, a cylindrical sealing surface and an annular bottom sealing surface having a plurality of radial notch means across the bottom thereof. A tubular rod extends vertically upwardly from the top surface for slidable displacement in the tubular sleeve, and a collar is secured to the top of the rod. A spring located between the collar and the cup shaped portion urges the cylindrical head vertically upwardly to a position whereat the cylindrical head top surface engages the top of the cup shaped portion. The collar is pneumatically displaced vertically downwardly at a high pressure to bring the cup shaped portion annular surface into sealing engagement with the blankmold outer annular sealing surface. The pressure is then reduced so that a predetermined distance separates the cylindrical head annular bottom sealing surface and the blankmold inner annular sealing surface so that settle air can be introduced into the mold, and then the pressure is again raised to the high pressure for parison formation.

The cake (7), fitted with the rough pressing (71) of the stem parison (61) is situated on the ring (8) where by the action of its own gravity, it streams off till the rough pressing (71) fits into the cavity (41) of the bottom mould (4). There the rough pressing (71) is fastened by the underpressure and the air is blasted into the flask (6) and, in the same time, the bottom mould (4) is forced downwards. When the orifice (42) of the cavity (41) comes on the level of the surface (51) of the bottom opening of the glass-blowing mould (5), the glass-blowing mould (5) is closed and the air is blasted into the flask (6) until it obtains the shape of the inner wall (52) of the glass-blowing mould (5).

Methods and a device of manufacturing glass gobs with good productivity without defects in appearance from a glass melt. Glass gobs are manufactured from glass melt gobs by molding and cooling glass melt gobs in glass gob molding parts that are intermittently rotated. In one method, single intermittent rotation period of said glass gob molding part is in a range of 0.1 to 0.25 second, and the single intermittent rotation distance of said glass gob molding part is 0.8-7 cm. The device for molding glass gobs from a continuously flowing glass melt has a turntable intermittently rotated around a rotation axis and glass gob molding molds positioned on said turntable. The glass gob molding mold has multiple glass gob molding parts that receive glass melt on the upper surface thereof and mold the glass melt into glass gobs. The glass gob molding mold is positioned on a turntable so that said glass gob molding parts are disposed at equal intervals around a circumference centered on the rotation axis of the turntable.

The present invention relates to a process and equipment for the fabrication of glass containers with internally threaded neck and such containers. The plunger (6) is from the glass leaving an imprint corresponding to the mouth (M) of a bottle, wherein the plunger has at least one helical groove (15) in its outside surface. During the extraction, the plunger is rotated around a longitudinal axis (X-X) performing a roto-translational motion to unscrew the plunger out of the partially solidified glass, leaving an internal thread in the mouth (M) of the bottle. The roto-translational motion for the extraction of the plunger is generated by: a linear actuator (30) acting on the plunger (6), thereby effecting a linear movement of the plunger (6) along said longitudinal axis (X-X), a guide body (14) wherein the plunger (6) is moved relative to the guide body (14) along said longitudinal axis (X-X), and a helical guide (16, 17) coaxial to the longitudinal axis (X-X) and being provided between said guide body (14) and said plunger (6) and transforming said linear movement effected by said linear actuator (30) on said plunger (6) into said roto-translational motion of said plunger (6).
