Variable-type bubble water cooling apparatus

Claim 1

Variable-type bubble water cooling apparatus in an apparatus for producing cylindrical film of thermoelastic resin comprising; an annular water supply pipe, a lower support ring which is attached to the water supply pipe and rotatably supports the lower ends of many curved cooling pipes, an annular lower rotation ring which is rotatable in relation to the lower support ring, an upper rotation ring which is opposed to the lower rotation ring in spaced relationship and rotatably supports the upper ends of many curved cooling pipes by way of numbers of link means, a concentrated exit pipe which is united with the upper rotation ring and to which the upper ends of many curved cooling pipes are communicated by way of flexible pipes, numbers of curved cooling pipes of metal in which passes through the cooling water, the lower ends of them being rotatably supported by the lower support ring and communicated with the concentrated water supply pipe, the upper ends of them being rotatably supported by the upper rotation ring by way of link means and communicated with the concentrated exit pipe, so that the enveloping circle formed by peripheries of many curved cooling pipes at a determined horizontal position approximately in the middle of upper and lower rotation rings are almost true circle with regard to the center of apparatus, the diameter of enveloping circle being varied by relative rotation of lower and upper support rings, and the bubble which contacts and passes through the enveloping circle perpendicularly is cooled at a determined diameter of the circle.
