Abstract of the Disclosure Disclosed is an apparatus for preparing a drawn heat-set plastic hollow vessel, which comprises a mandrel for supporting a preform composed of a plastic material and a hollow vessel formed from said preform, a supply zone for mounting the preform on said mandrel, a preheating zone comprising a turret having along the periphery thereof a plurality of supporting seats for supporting said mandrel and a heating mechanism for heating the preform on the mandrel, a blow-forming and heat-setting zone comprising a plurality of openable and closable blow-forming and heat-setting molds and a rotary member having along the periphery thereof mandrel supporting members corresponding to said molds, a delivery zone for delivering the mandrel having the preheated preform mounted thereon, which comes from the preheating zone, to the blow-forming and heat-setting zone, a withdrawal zone for withdrawing the mandrel having a blow-formed and heat-set vessel mounted thereon from the blow-forming and heat-setting zone, and an endless delivery passage for passing the mandrel through said supply zone, preheating zone, delivery zone, blow- forming and heat-setting zone and withdrawal zone in the recited order, wherein the blow-forming and heat-setting zone comprises a mold heated at a heat-setting temperature through the entire course of rotation, a mold opening and closing mechanism for closing the mold after the mold has passed through the delivery zone and opening the mold when the mold arrives at the withdrawal zone, a hollow drawing rod arranged concentrically with the mandrel, which is capable of reciprocating relatively to the preform, a first gas passage laid out between the periphery of the drawing rod and the mandrel and leading to the interior of the preform, a second gas passage arranged in the interior of the drawing rod and leading to the interior of the preform through openings distributed in the length direction of the drawing rod, a high-pressure hot air supply mechanism and a hot air discharge mechanism, leading to the first gas passage through an opening-closing valve or a changeover valve, a low-pressure cold air supply mechanism leading to the second gas passage through an opening-closing valve, and an opening-closing control valve for connecting the first gas passage to the high-pressure hot air supply mechanism synchronously with insertion of the preform into the drawing rod to effect the draw-blow forming of the preform and simultaneously confining hot air in the formed vessel to effect the heat-setting of the formed vessel and for connecting the first gas passage to the hot air discharge mechanism after the heat-setting and connecting the second gas passage to the cold air supply mechanism to effect discharge of hot air and cooling of the vessel.
