Abstract:
A glass bottle includes a body with a neck coupled to a neck finish, which has either exterior threads for receiving a first type of closure including a threaded closure of a type having a metal shell with internal threads and a skirt crimpable to a container neck to simulate foil that covers a cork, or an exterior shoulder for coupling by a cork-type plug closure press. In both cases, the neck has both external (L and K) dimensions adjacent to the neck finish for receiving a threaded closure of the type having a metal shell with internal threads and a skirt crimpable to a container neck to simulate foil that covers a cork, and a cylindrical interior passage having an internal diameter (D) extending over a cork spec distance (C) for receiving a cork-type plug closure. A method of molding the bottle is also disclosed.

Claim (Index 2):
A plurality of bottles, wherein at least one of the plurality of bottles has a body and a neck finish for receiving the first type of closure and at least one other of the plurality of bottles has the same body but a different neck finish for receiving the second type of closure, and wherein the plurality of bottles are produced by a method of molding bottles using a glassware machine, that includes the steps of:\n at a blank mold stage, using a neck ring mold to blow mold parisons having either, but not both, cork-type plug neck finishes or threaded neck finishes for receiving either, but not both, of a first type of closure or a second type of closure different from the first type of closure, wherein the first type of closure includes a cork-type plug closure and the second type of closure includes a threaded closure of a type having a metal shell with internal threads and a skirt crimpable to a container neck to simulate foil that covers a cork; and at a blow mold stage, using a blow mold to blow mold the parisons into bottles with necks having external L and K dimensions to receive the second type of closure and using the same blow mold to blow mold the parison into bottles with necks having a cylindrical interior with an internal diameter (D) extending over at least a cork spec distance (C) to receive the first type of closure, wherein different neck ring molds for forming the different neck finishes are employed at the blank mold stage depending on the type of neck finish being formed, but the same body and neck blow mold is used at the blow mold stage, to produce glass wine bottles having either but not both the cork-type plug neck finish or the threaded neck finish but otherwise having the same bottle body and neck to facilitate change-over of a production line between different types of bottles.
