A VALVE BLOCK ASSEMBLY FOR A BLOW MOLDING SYSTEM

摘要

A valve block assembly (300) for a blow molding system is provided. The valve block assembly (300) comprises a valve block housing (301) and a stretch rod (303) movable along a longitudinal axis (324) within a stretch rod bore (304) formed in the valve block housing (301). The valve block assembly (300) also includes one or more valves (302a) coupled to the valve block housing (301) and spaced away from the stretch rod (303). Each of the one or more valves (302a) includes a valve piston (323) with a longitudinal axis (325) substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis (324) of the stretch rod (303).
