Abstract:
A manufacturing apparatus of a hollow article comprising:an annular orifice nozzle made up of a nozzle core constituted so as to be upwardly and downwardly movable, and a nozzle mouthpiece concentrically surrounding said core to form an outlet gap having a variable gap width for upward extruding a thermoplastic resin between it and said core; a drawing unit having a cavity of a desired shape downward opened for forming one end portion of a hollow article, said drawing unit being moved apart from said annular orifice nozzle to draw and form a tubular parison after injecting the thermoplastic resin into said cavity on said outlet gap of said annular orifice nozzle; and a blow mold for blow-molding said tubular parison to form a hollow article body of a desired shape, wherein said nozzle mouthpiece is multi-divided vertically and laterally, each divided part is disposed so as to be able to reciprocate laterally, an uppermost portion of said nozzle mouthpiece divided is constituted so as to be replaceable with said blow mold upon blow molding, and a lower portion of said nozzle mouthpiece has a desired cavity and can be moved laterally upon taking out a product after forming the other end portion of the hollow article into a desired shape to open them.
