As a method for improving the transparency of a tubular film using the inflation method, for example, a method has been proposed in which a chimney or heating cylinder is provided to keep warm or heat the tubular film after extruding it from a die (Japanese Patent Publication No. 1973- Publication No. 12525, Special Publication No. 1973
-24593 Publication), in this method, the improvement in transparency is insufficient even if the currently commonly used cooling using an air ring is applied, and the process stability is poor and productivity is poor, making it unsuitable for practical use. .

The inventors of the present invention previously filed Japanese Patent Application No. 72587/1987, which described an annealing chamber, an air ring that blows cooling air perpendicularly to the axis of a tubular film (generally called a horizontal air ring), and an air ring. The combination of the air conditioning tube that is in close contact with the tube and surrounding the tubular film, and the sub-cooling air that is blown from the upper plate ring of the air ring into the air conditioning tube in the direction of travel of the film, allows for highly transparent inflation. It was reported that it is possible to obtain film. According to this method, it can be achieved by making slight improvements to the cooling part of the currently widely used inflation method molding machine or by replacing auxiliary parts. It was also possible to restore it to

Further, in the prior application, it was necessary to install an annealing chamber. The annealing chamber is
It maintains the tubular film that is progressing inside in a molten state, and uses its surface tension to equalize the minute irregularities of the extrusion die, improving gloss and transparency. There may also be cases where this becomes an inhibiting factor.
In particular, problems may occur if the processing accuracy of the air ring is low or if the air ring is installed with poor accuracy.

The present invention was developed in view of the above points, and allows for the modification of current general-purpose machines in a way that is easier and easier to restore, and also provides excellent transparency without using an annealing chamber. As a result of intensive research into cooling devices that can produce blown film, we found that: (1) a horizontal air ring; (2) a wind regulating tube airtightly installed in the air ring; and (3) a cooling device installed on the inner circumference of the wind regulating tube. The inventors have discovered that the above object can be achieved by combining an auxiliary wind regulating tube with an air circulation port left between the air ring and the air ring, and have completed the present invention.

That is, the cooling device of the present invention includes an air ring that blows cooling air perpendicular to the direction of travel of the tubular film that is extruded into a tubular shape through a die and expanded by internal pressure, and an air ring that is closely connected to the upper plate ring of the air ring. In a tubular film cooling device using an inflation method having a wind regulating tube installed, on the inner peripheral side of the wind regulating tube and near the outer peripheral side of the expanding tubular film, between the upper plate ring and The present invention is characterized in that a cylindrical sub-air regulating tube having a shorter tube length than the air regulating tube is disposed with a gap or opening left.

A cooling device for a tubular film in an inflation method using a wind regulating tube as in the present invention,
No technology has been found in which a cylindrical sub-air regulating tube is provided downstream of the air ring and inside the air regulating tube. For example, Utility Model Publication No. 49-117358 has a similar form at first glance, but it is essentially different in that the inner cylinder is installed upstream of the air ring, and its effects are also: (1) cooling air from the air ring; (2) to change the direction of horizontally blown cooling air upward; and (3) to prevent heated air near the molten tubular film from directly hitting the tubular film after it exits the die. It is a slight removal of air,
This is a different technology from the present invention.

Although the shape itself is quite different, a device that installs a nearly cylindrical structure near the cooling air outlet of the air ring is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 53-137261 and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 137261.
Seen in Publication No. 53-77258. However, in all of these, the cooling air coming out of the air ring is divided into two parts before it hits the tubular film, and one part is blown onto the tubular film that has just come out of the die. Some cooling air is characterized by blowing out the cooling air in the cylinder and cooling the tubular film at the same time due to the Ventury effect, and is clearly distinguished from the present invention.

A cylindrical wind regulating tube 11 is placed on the upper plate ring 17 of the horizontal air ring 15, with its lower end in close contact with the upper plate ring 17, and concentrically with the outer peripheral surface of the tubular film 19, that is, inside the upper plate ring. It is arranged concentrically with the circumferential surface. The diameter of the wind regulating tube 11 is determined by the tubular film 19 passing inside it.
The length is preferably 1.5 to 5.5 times the maximum diameter of , and the length is preferably 150 to 1000 mm. A sub-air regulating cylinder 13 is provided concentrically on the inner peripheral surface side of the air regulating cylinder 11. The sub wind regulating tube 13 has a smaller diameter than the inner diameter of the wind regulating tube 11, and its length is shorter than that of the wind regulating tube 11. The diameter of the auxiliary air conditioning tube 13 is preferably 1.2 to 3.0 times the maximum value of the tubular film 19 passing inside the tube, and the length of the tube is preferably 150 to 500 mm. Furthermore, the sub-air straightener 13
It is desirable that the diameter of the upper plate ring 17 is larger than or approximately equal to the inner circumferential diameter of the upper plate ring 17. The sub-air regulating tube 13 is arranged with a gap provided between it and the upper plate ring 17, and this gap is the air circulation opening 2.
form 1. The size of this gap is preferably 2 to 20 mm.

The cooling air from the air ring 15 perpendicularly hits the tubular film 19 and flows downstream of the tubular film 19. At this time, the cooling air that hits the tubular film 19 tends to generate vortices and turbulence, but this is suppressed by the sub-air straightener tube 13. As a result, it becomes possible to run the cooling air along the tubular film, thereby increasing the cooling effect and improving the stability of the tubular film. A part of the cooling air (the outer part at a relatively low temperature) is transferred to the wind regulating tube 11 and the sub-air regulating tube 13.
The air is circulated between the air and air through the air circulation port 21.
When the secondary air straightener is placed in close contact with the upper plate ring of the air ring, the rectified cooling air that blows through the gap between the tubular film and the secondary air straightener causes a ventilating phenomenon, causing the tubular film to expand and damage the air ring and the air ring. This may cause problems such as contact with the sub-air straightener. However, by providing an air circulation port between the secondary wind regulating tube and the upper plate ring of the air ring, not only will the stability during tubular film manufacturing be improved by eliminating the ventilating phenomenon (that is, productivity will be improved), but also the air They also found that the unexpected effect of reinforcing the cooling effect with unused cooling air was produced.

As can be seen from the above description, in the above embodiment, the continuous air circulation port 21 was provided in the circumferential direction between the sub-air regulating tube 13 and the upper plate ring 17, but the invention is not limited to this. The sub-air regulating tube 13 may be disposed with an opening left between it and the upper plate ring 17, and the air circulation ports may be provided discontinuously in the circumferential direction. Of course, it is necessary that the cooling effect is not non-uniform in the circumferential direction. Further, in the above embodiment, the sub wind regulating tube 13 is fixed to the wind regulating tube 11 by the arm 23, but the arrangement method thereof is not particularly limited. For example, legs may be provided at the end of the sub-air straightening tube and placed on the upper plate ring 17, or may be fixed, and any method may be selected as long as it does not move during operation.

As explained in detail above, according to the present invention, a transparent film can be easily obtained. In particular, even in the case of high-pressure polyethylene film, the degree of haze can be halved to around 2.5, making it possible to obtain transparency close to that of polypropylene film, which is a relatively expensive transparent film.
