Abstract

Abstract A system for distributing a single stream of plastic into a multiplicity of streams is disclosed. The system includes two members, a plastic receiving member and a plastic discharge member. The receiving and discharge members are connectable in telescoping relationship. The receiving member has a central plastic receiving opening and a plurality of channels extending from said opening. The discharge member has a like number of passages communicating with the channels and terminating in discharge openings adapted to communicate with a mold. Also, internal heaters are provided to heat the plastic.
