Apparatus for manufacture of turbulence member made of synthetic resin

Claim 1

In an apparatus for the manufacture of turbulence members made of a synthetic resin, which comprises: (a) an extruding machine provided with an extrusion outlet for melting therein a synthetic resin by heat and extruding the molten resin out of said extrusion outlet, (b) a rotary nozzle rotatably attached to the leading end of said extrusion outlet and provided with a slit for allowing the molten resin to be rotated around its axis and simultaneously extruded from said slit in the horizontal direction, (c) a water vessel filled with water and tightly closed on the upper portion thereof for cooling and solidifying therein the molten resin extruded from said slit, and (d) a drawing device for drawing the resin cooled and solidified in said water vessel, the improvement wherein said water vessel is divided by a partition wall into a first relatively narrow cooling chamber and a second relatively wide cooling chamber, the lateral wall of said first narrow cooling chamber on the rotary nozzle side, said partition wall and the lateral wall of said second wide cooling chamber on the drawing device side each being provided with an aperture of a diameter slightly larger than the outside diameter of the resin extruded from said slit so as to be aligned with one another, said first narrow cooling chamber being connected to a water-supplying means, and said second wide cooling chamber being connected to a suction pipe having the upper end thereof opening to the interior of said water vessel so as to be positioned at a higher level than the level of said apertures and having the lower end thereof connected to a suction pump.
