Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
113 words
In an apparatus for manufacturing a plastic coated conductor comprising conductor payoff means, means for successively coating melted plastics about said conductor, a pulling capstan and means for spooling said coated conductor, the improvement comprising: a pair of longitudinally spaced water-spraying devices operatively positioned with respect to said coated conductor between said melted plastics coating means and said pulling capstan for cooling said melted plastics, and means intermediate said spaced water-spraying means in contact with said coated conductor for suppressing lateral vibration of the coated conductor due to impact of the water spray on the moving conductor, said vibration-suppressing means being shorter in total length than the combined length of said water-spraying devices.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
113 words
In an apparatus for manufacturing a plastic coated conductor comprising conductor payoff means, means for successively coating melted plastics about said conductor, a pulling capstan and means for spooling said coated conductor, the improvement comprising: a pair of longitudinally spaced water-spraying devices operatively positioned with respect to said coated conductor between said melted plastics coating means and said pulling capstan for cooling said melted plastics, and means intermediate said spaced water-spraying means in contact with said coated conductor for suppressing lateral vibration of the coated conductor due to impact of the water spray on the moving conductor, said vibration-suppressing means being shorter in total length than the combined length of said water-spraying devices.
