Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. - Columbus OH

International Classification:

B29C 1707
B29D 2318

US Classification:

425163

Abstract:

Apparatus and method for producing thermoplastic corrugated tubing having substantially uniform thickness throughout comprises extruder and step of forming hollow smooth-walled extrudate. Corrugating structure immediately adjacent extruder is arranged to receive extrudate and to form corrugations therein. Such structure includes continuously moving cooperating mold blocks configured to form alternating annular peak portions, valley portions and interconnecting side wall portions in extrudate when it is blown into intimate engagement with configured mold blocks. Thickness of extrudate being corrugated is controlled to provide relatively thin extrudate portions during formation of annular valley portions and relatively thick extrudate portions during formation of annular peak and interconnecting side wall portions.

B29C 5358

US Classification:

264565

Abstract:

A method for manufacturing plastic pipe such that the pipe has apertures formed therein when the pipe is viewed in cross-section, comprising the steps of having hot plastic flow through a die and subsequently be extruded through a die head to form an extruded wall component having first and second end wails, with the die head having formed therein a plurality of first sized gaps and a plurality of second sized gaps, with the second sized gaps having an aperture located inside each of said second sized gaps. The die is secured to a manifold assembly, with the manifold assembly comprising sets of tubes located centrally of one another, each set of tubes comprising a water inlet tube, a tube through which a vacuum is pulled, and a water return tube. Each set of tubes is positioned longitudinally within a respective die manifold tube with the outermost surface of each set of tubes spaced a first distance from the respective die manifold tube. Each of the respective die manifold tubes extends through the die.
