Method For Manufacturing And Inspecting Blow-Molded Plastic Containers

View page
US Patent:
7374713, May 20, 2008
Filed:
Oct 5, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/543438
Inventors:
Craig Alan Birckbichler - Chicora PA, US
Sudha Christy Jebadurai - Poland OH, US
Georg V. Wolfe - Butler PA, US
Ronald A. Puvak - Butler PA, US
William E. Schmidt - Gibsonia PA, US
Assignee:
AGR International, Inc. - Butler PA
International Classification:
B29C 49/78
US Classification:
264410, 264 401, 264523, 425141, 4251744, 425538
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing plastic containers. The method may comprise the steps of (1) forming a plastic container from a preform in a blow-molder, where the blow-molder comprises a plurality of molds and spindles; and (2) inspecting the plastic container after formation in the blow-molder. The containers are inspected by impinging infrared light thereon and detecting the portion of the infrared light that passes through the container and converting the same into corresponding electrical signals which are delivered to a microprocessor. The microprocessor receives signals from sensors associated with the blow-molder relating to the position of the molds, the identity of the molds and the identity of the spindles in order that the information that is determined by inspection can be associated with specific molds and spindles. The information may be visually displayed so as to provide feedback regarding the inspection process. In a preferred embodiment wall thickness measurements are taken at several vertically spaced positions simultaneously.

US Patent:
7378047, May 27, 2008
Filed:
Jan 24, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/041565
Inventors:
Craig Alan Birckbichler - Chicora PA, US
Sudha Christy Jebadurai - Poland OH, US
Georg V. Wolfe - Butler PA, US
Ronald A. Puvak - Butler PA, US
William E. Schmidt - Gibsonia PA, US
Assignee:
AGR International, Inc. - Butler PA
International Classification:
B29C 49/78
US Classification:
264410, 264 401, 264523, 425141, 4251744, 425538
Abstract:
A method of inspecting wall thickness of blow-molded plastic containers includes providing a blow-molder having a plurality of molds and a plurality of associated spindles. The containers are inspected by impinging infrared light thereon and detecting the portion of the infrared light that passes through the container and converting the same into corresponding electrical signals which are delivered to a microprocessor. The microprocessor compares the electrical signals with stored information regarding desired wall thickness of the container and emits output thickness information. The microprocessor receives signals from sensors associated with the blow-molder relating to the position of the molds, the identity of the molds and the identity of the spindles in order that the wall thickness information that is determined by inspection can be associated with specific molds and spindles. The wall thickness information may be averaged over a period of time or a number of containers. The information may be visually displayed so as to provide feedback regarding the inspection process.

US Patent:
7780898, Aug 24, 2010
Filed:
Apr 21, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/148657
Inventors:
Craig Alan Birckbichler - Chicora PA, US
Sudha Christy Jebadurai - Poland OH, US
Georg V. Wolfe - Butler PA, US
Ronald A. Puvak - Butler PA, US
William E. Schmidt - Gibsonia PA, US
Assignee:
AGR International, Inc. - Butler PA
International Classification:
B29C 49/78
US Classification:
264408, 264410, 264 401, 264500
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for manufacturing and inspecting plastic containers. The apparatus may comprise a blow-molder comprising a plurality of molds and spindles for forming a plastic container from a preform. The apparatus may also comprise an inspection device, located in the blow-molder, for inspecting the plastic container after formation by the blow-molder. The inspection device may comprise (i) two or more light energy sources for directing light energy from an exterior of the plastic container toward the plastic container after formation of the plastic container by the blow-molder, and (ii) two or more light energy sensors, each light energy sensor operatively associated with one of the light energy sources, wherein each light energy sensor is for sensing a portion of the light energy that passes through of the plastic container and generating a signal from the sensed portion of the light energy that passes through the plastic container that is related to the light energy absorbed by the plastic container. The apparatus may also comprise a transfer arm in the blow molder for transporting the plastic container along the transport path through the inspection device. The apparatus may also comprise a microprocessor in communication with the inspection device for (i) determining a container attribute of the plastic container based on the signals related to the light energy absorbed by the plastic container; and (ii) determining the mold involved in formation of the plastic container based on at least one signal received by the microprocessor.

US Patent:
7924421, Apr 12, 2011
Filed:
Aug 31, 2007
Appl. No.:
12/310263
Inventors:
William E. Schmidt - Gibsonia PA, US
Georg V. Wolfe - Butler PA, US
Assignee:
AGR International, Inc. - Butler PA
International Classification:
G01N 21/00
US Classification:
3562394, 250223 B
Abstract:
Systems and methods for in-line inspection of plastic blow molded containers. The inspection system may comprise a plurality of emitter assemblies arranged in a vertical array. Each emitter assembly may cyclically emit light energy in at least two different narrow wavelength bands at a container as the container passes through an inspection area. The system may also comprise a plurality of broadband photodetectors arranged in a vertical array, each photodetector facing at least one of the emitter assemblies with the inspection area therebetween such that the photodetectors are capable of sensing light energy that passes through the container when it is in the inspection area. The system may also comprise a processor in communication with the photodetectors for determining a characteristic of the container based on signals from the photodetectors.

Nov 18, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/299949
Inventors:
Georg V. Wolfe - Butler PA, US
William E. Schmidt - Gibsonia PA, US
International Classification:
G01G 19/00
US Classification:
702173
Abstract:
Various embodiments are directed to systems and methods for generating section weights for blow-molded containers on-line. An inspection device may take a plurality of measurements of one or more container characteristics across a profile of a container while the container is on-line. A programmable processor may be programmed to receive the plurality of measurements and derive a material distribution of the container based on the plurality of measurements. The programmable processor may additionally be programmed to derive a relationship between the measured material distribution and section weights of a plurality of sections of the container and apply the relationship to determine section weights for the plurality of sections of the container.

US Patent:
20130268237, Oct 10, 2013
Filed:
Oct 12, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/878622
Inventors:
Georg V. Wolfe - Butler PA, US
William E. Schmidt - Gibsonia PA, US
Jeffery A. Peterson - Pittsburgh PA, US
Edward J. Fisher - Butler PA, US
International Classification:
G01B 11/06
US Classification:
702172
Abstract:
Various embodiments are directed to systems and methods for measuring a thickness of a container. For example, a control device may receive data indicating a surface topology of the container and based on the surface topology of the container, instruct a multi-axis positioning system to position a sensor relative to a first point of the container such that: a distance from the sensor to a surface at the first point is about equal to a predetermined distance; and the sensor direction is about normal to the surface at the first point. Data indicating the thickness at the first point may be received from the sensor.
