Abstract: A recycling apparatus for obtaining oil from waste plastic by thermal decomposition having a tank proper with a hopper to charge the waste plastic and multiple heating pipes disposed above one another which communicate with one another in the tank proper. The upper heating pipe is connected to a hot-air generator and the lower heating pipe to a flue duct leading to the outside atmosphere, thus dividing the tank proper into an upper thermal decomposition zone and a lower melting zone. As such, the recycling apparatus accomplishes the melting and thermal decomposition of the waste plastic in one tank. The recycling apparatus is simple and compact, provides substantial cost savings and ease of maintenance, and increases productivity and economy.

Abstract: A movable scroll element for a scroll type compressor is produced by a combination of a mold casting process and a machining process. The mold casting process produces a cast product having an end-plate forming portion, a spiral-member-forming portion and a projecting portion for forming a drive power receiving portion. The cast product has an entire outer faces covered with black scale, and the machining process machines the end-plate-forming portion, a spiral member forming portion, the projecting portion by cutting. Nevertheless, at least an outer circumference of the drive power receiving portion, i.e., a boss portion of the movable scroll element is covered with an outermost layer consisting of black scale. Thus, a sufficient mechanical strength of the movable scroll element is obtained even if the wall thickness of the drive power receiving portion, i.e., the boss portion of the movable scroll element, is reduced.
