A container of hardened, fiber-reinforced synthetic resin and high stability is manufactured by forming a wound-up structure on a shaping core born on the shaft of a winding machine together with fittings for the two open container ends, of different size, and being clamped against the two core ends by means of fixing members held in position on the winding shaft during winding. One of the fittings is provided with an annular groove for anchoring the wound-up structure therein. The fixing members and fittings are of such shape that the winding affords a wound-up structure having end openings of equal size so that a geodetic depositing of the wrapped layers is possible. After the structure is hardened, the portion thereof extending beyond the fitting having an opening of larger diameter than that closed by the other fitting is cut off, so that a container closed by the first fitting and open through the second fitting is obtained. Between the fittings and the wound-up fiber-reinforced structure inserts of elastic, temperature-resistant material can be provided which prevents detachment of the fittings from the structure, so that the resulting container is leak-free.

A process for the production of a fiber-reinforced synthetic resin container, comprising (a) adding to a core having a first diameter which is mounted on a shaft of a winding machine, by passing on the shaft from a first end thereof a first fitting having a second diameter smaller than said first diameter into contact with one end face of the core, and by passing on the shaft from the other shaft end a second fitting having a third diameter larger than said second diameter but smaller than said first diameter into contact with the other core end face; (b) passing over the first shaft end a sleeve member into contact with the first fitting and fastening the sleeve member in position on the shaft; and passing over the other shaft end a fixing member, having a flange part of the same diameter as the second fitting and tapering down into a socket part having the same diameter as the first fitting, such that the flange part contacts the second fitting, and fastening the fixing member in position on the shaft, thereby clamping the two fittings and the core between said sleeve member and said fitting member on the shaft; (c/d) applying first windings of fibers and hardenable synthetic resin onto the assembly resulting from Step (b), at least a portion of said fibers being applied under a smallest winding angle±w with respect to said shaft corresponding to the equation sin (w)-d/D wherein d is the second diameter and D is the first diameter, thereby producing a wound-up body of fibers having a first polar opening about the first fitting and having an opposite opening of substantially the same diameter as the first polar opening about the socket part of the fixing member; (e) fully hardening the applied windings by exposing them to heat curing and cooling the resulting hardened wound body; and (f) cutting-off from the structure of said hardened wound body resulting from Step (e) and extending from the region of the core across the second fitting the excess portion extending beyond said second fitting onto the flange part and ending about the socket part of the fixing member.
