QUADRUPLE CAVITY GLASS MOLD OPERATING APPARATUS

摘要

The disclosed apparatus is a quadruple gob glass parison forming machine. Its distinguishing features are the mounting of the mold carrying inserts in the mold arms so that equal closing forces will be applied to all the molds,and that the mold arms are formed with extensions so that a conventional mold closing motor can be coupled to the arms and the closing force will be greater by at least 25%. The four molds are opened and closed within the space that has normally been considered cramped, even when three molds were being used.
