Abstract: A screw for a double-shaft extruding device having a shaft and a spiral flight provided at an outer periphery of the shaft. A height of the flight from an axis of the shaft is substantially constant. An angle of torsion of a spiral of the flight becomes smaller toward a shaft distal end. A cross-sectional area of extrusion formed by the shaft and the flight continuously increases from the shaft distal end to a shaft proximal end. Material can be smoothly discharged and completely extruded.

Abstract: A kneading apparatus for an elastomer has a casing with a pair of rotors mounted therein. The casing defines a rotor chamber having a cocoon shaped cross-section. The pair of rotors are rotatably disposed in the rotor chamber, and extend in parallel with each other. Each of the rotors is integrally provided with at least two continuous blades, the rotating blades define a space therebetween in which rubber-like material is introduced for kneading. Each of the blades is continuously provided along a length of the rotor, and each of the blades includes a first blade portion oriented in a first direction at axially one end portion of the rotor, and a second blade portion oriented in a second direction. The first blade portion is provided at rotationally advanced position, and the second blade portion is provided at rotationally rear position.

Abstract: In a rubber-like material kneading apparatus having a pair of rotors with radially outwardly extended long vanes in a chamber, each of the rotors has at least three long vanes which are arranged around a rotary shaft at equal angular intervals in such a manner that the cutting angle formed by the rear surfaces of the long vanes and the tangential lines at the outermost ends of the long vanes is larger than 40.degree., whereby the rubber-like material can be kneaded with high efficiency.
