Abstract

Abstract A multi-layer extrusion die wherein a temperature control mechanism for heating or cooling an inner layer resin is provided inside an inner layer resin flow path, and resins flowing through respective resin flow paths are each heated to a suitable temperature so as to eliminate possibilities of occurrence of burning of the resin and the like.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 84 words
A multi-layer extrusion die, for extruding thermoplastic resins to form a multi-layer tubular resin, wherein said die comprises: an inner and an outer layer resin flow path both of which are joined to each other in the vicinity of an extrusion slit; a first temperature control means disposed inside said inner layer resin flow path, a second temperature control means disposed outside said outer layer resin flow path; and a metallized film provided on a peripheral surface of said inner layer resin flow path.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 84 words
A multi-layer extrusion die, for extruding thermoplastic resins to form a multi-layer tubular resin, wherein said die comprises: an inner and an outer layer resin flow path both of which are joined to each other in the vicinity of an extrusion slit; a first temperature control means disposed inside said inner layer resin flow path, a second temperature control means disposed outside said outer layer resin flow path; and a metallized film provided on a peripheral surface of said inner layer resin flow path.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 29 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 1, wherein said first temperature control means is a heating means and said second temperature control means is an auxiliary heating means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 2, wherein a heat insulating means is provided between said inner layer resin flow path and said outer layer resin flow path.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 28 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 1, wherein said first temperature control means is a cooling means and said second temperature control means is a heating means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 29 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 4, wherein a heat insulating means is provided between said inner layer resin flow path and said outer layer resin flow path.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 26 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 1, wherein said first temperature control means is heating means and said second temperature control means is cooling means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 29 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 6, wherein a heat insulating means is provided between said inner layer resin flow path and said outer layer resin flow path.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 116 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 1, wherein said die further comprises a central mandrel, an annular intermediate die part surrounding said central mandrel and separated therefrom by said inner resin flow path, an outer die body surrounding said intermediate die part and separated therefrom by said outer resin flow path, the peripheral surface of said central mandrel at the downstream end therof defining a wall of said extrusion slit, said metallized film being applied to the downstream end face of said mandrel adjacent said extrusion slit and extending onto the outer peripheral surface of said central mandrel from the downstream end thereof upstream toward the joinder of said inner and outer resin flow paths.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 57 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 8, wherein said metallized film extends from radially adjacent said first temperature control means on said mandrel downstream end face toward said extrusion slit and from the latter along the outer peripheral surface of said mandrel upstream to just beyond said joinder of said outer and inner resin flow paths.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 40 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 1, wherein said metallized film is an eutetoid film of fluorine-containing compound grains and plating substance and is applied to a portion of the peripheral surface of the inner layer resin flow path.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 68 words
A multi-layer extrusion die according to claim 10, in which said fluorine-containing compound includes at least one of tetrafluoroethylene, tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer and graphite fluoride, said plating substance being selected from the group consisting of nickel, a nickel-cobalt alloy, a nickel-phosphorus alloy, a nickel-born alloy, copper and tin, the content of said fluorine-containing compound grain in said plating being in the range of 5 to 50 percent by weight.
