Abstract: A melt pump comprises a pump housing having an intake port and a discharge port and a pair of gear rotors. Each of the pair of gear rotors having a gear part and a shaft part integrated with each other, which are arranged within the pump housing in such a manner as to be rotatable in mutually meshing condition. The melt pump further comprises a recovering passage for guiding resin leaking through a clearance between the pump housing and each of the pair of gear rotors into the intake port, a cooling hole drilled inside each of the gear rotors while facing to each clearance forming region; and a pipe inserted into the cooling hole for supplying cooling liquid. A sleeve for lining the internal periphery of the cooling hole is located in the hole so as to utilize the inside of the sleeve as a cooling liquid passage.
