<p>An improved one-piece plastic container of the champagne base variety having an annular peripheral chime surrounding an inward sloping base portion for containing carbonated beverages and associated methods for making same by blow molding. The preform defining interior and exterior walls which are ever decreasing in diameter from the neck to the base so that the preform may be easily removed from a mating core and injecting mold cavity used therewith thereby avoiding the need for a split mold to form the preform. In a blow molding process for producing a one-piece plastic container by expanding an elongated preform containing plastic material for the neck, body and base of the container in a mold, the process for forming a container of the champagne base variety comprising the steps of forming the preform on a core rod with annular thickened portions of the preform positioned at points along the length thereof such that during blowing of the preform the material of the preform will be deposited where desired; positioning the preform within a blow molding cavity defining the finished container shape; extending a stretch rod within the preform towards the bottom of the blow molding cavity, prior to injection of pressurized gas, to longitudinally stretch a sidewall-forming portion of the preform while minimizing stretching of a base-forming portion thereby inducing the base-forming portion to lay down where desired when injected with pressurized gas; and injecting pressurized gas into the preform adjacent the neck whereby the preform is radially stretched outward to fill the cavity and form the container from the neck towards the base.</p> |
