Plastic container

1. A plastic container comprising:

a neck section, a shoulder section, a body section and a base section, wherein said base section comprises at least two tie members extending from a central area to a side wall of said base section, the tie members formed as partial grooves that extend in a longitudinal direction, such that the tie members are arranged between feet of the base section;

wherein at least one reinforcement groove is provided between the two tie members, the reinforcement grooves comprising a varying depth in a radial direction;

wherein there are at least in certain areas circumferential grooves provided in a peripheral direction comprising a varying depth, between said tie members;

the tie members extend into the body section and the shoulder section of the plastic container; and

wherein the tie members end immediately before or after a labeling area of the body region intended for receiving a label.

2. The plastic container of claim 1 , wherein the circumferential grooves are provided above said tie members, or below said tie members in said body section or said shoulder section.

3. The plastic container of claim 1 , wherein said tie members or said tie member function are designed extending substantially in a longitudinal direction on a periphery of said container from said base section towards said neck section of said container.

4. The plastic container of claim 1 , wherein said base section comprises at least two feet and an amount of said feet is a multiple of the number of said tie members.

5. The plastic container of claim 4 , wherein for two tie members, there are two, four, six, eight, ten, or twelve feet and for three tie members, there are three, six, nine, or twelve feet.

6. The plastic container of claim 1 , wherein said tie members extend across certain regions of said bottle, in particular across said body region or across said body region and said shoulder region.

7. The plastic container of claim 2 , wherein said tie members extend radially inwardly transversely, in particular perpendicularly, to said circumferential grooves.

8. The plastic container of claim 1 , wherein said circumferential grooves at locations, at which they have a function of a tie member, have a distinctly shallower depth than in intermediate areas.

9. The plastic container of claim 1 , wherein said tie members are formed in a labeling area such as to enable application of a label.

10. A plastic container comprising:

a neck section, a shoulder section, a body section and a base section, wherein the base section includes at least two tie members extending from a central area to a side wall of the base section;

wherein at least one reinforcement groove is provided between the two tie members, the reinforcement grooves comprising a varying depth in a radial direction;

wherein there are at least in certain areas circumferential grooves provided in a peripheral direction comprising a varying depth, between the tie members;

wherein the tie members configured in the shape of a radially outwardly projecting bar; and

the base section further comprising a central dome, a first region, and a second region, the first region adjacent the central dome, the first region having a first radius of curvature greater than the central dome, the second region adjacent the first region, the second region having a second radius of curvature greater than the first radius of curvature.

11. A plastic container comprising:

a neck section, a shoulder section, a body section and a base section, wherein said base section comprises at least three tie members extending from a central area to a side wall of said base section,

wherein one of the tie members extends intermittently from an injection point in the base section into the body section and the shoulder section of said plastic container;

wherein at least one reinforcement groove is provided between the two tie members, the reinforcement grooves comprising a varying depth in a radial direction;

the plastic container further comprising circumferential grooves provided in a peripheral direction above the tie members in the body section or said shoulder section; and

the circumferential grooves having varying depths in said peripheral direction, the circumferential grooves further having a first depth at a first location where the circumferential grooves function as a tie member, the circumferential grooves further having a second depth at an intermediate area, the first depth being shallower than the second depth.
