Since it is provided, it is possible to adjust the temperature only at a target portion of the tubular synthetic resin 5. At this time, since the tube-shaped molten synthetic resin 5 has poor heat conduction, heat is less likely to be transmitted to a portion adjacent in the circumferential direction. Therefore, by performing control such as raising the temperature of only a necessary portion of the plurality of radiant heating heaters 31, it is possible to precisely control the temperature of only the desired portion of the tubular synthetic resin 5 as desired.

- the radiant heating type heater 31 at the position corresponding to the portion of the tube-shaped molten synthetic resin 5 corresponding to the thick portion in the circumferential direction of the tubular film 6 is heated higher than the heaters of the other portions. Then, the thickness of the tube-shaped synthetic resin film 6 can be controlled because the portion becomes thin.

- the controller 25 controls the heating element 43 at a position corresponding to the thick portion of the film 6 via the controller 25.
- the controller 25 controls the power supply so as to increase the temperature of the cooling air. That is, when there is a portion of the thickness of the film 6 measured by the thickness meter 24 that is thicker than a predetermined value, the temperature of the cooling air for cooling the corresponding portion of the molten synthetic resin 5 is increased to increase the temperature of the other portion. If the cooling rate is reduced, it can be stretched before solidification, so that uneven thickness can be suppressed. As a result, the portion of the tube-shaped molten synthetic resin 5 becomes thinner, and a film 6 having a uniform thickness in the circumferential direction where uneven thickness is small can be manufactured.

In the direction shown in FIG. 15, the sheet is further conveyed to conveying rollers 54, 55, 56 downstream.
- the detection surface 57 of the detector 58 is oriented in the direction of the film 6a, and the detector 58 is hatched with diagonal lines in the width direction of the flat film 6a, that is, in the direction of the arrow X.
- the traverse device 62 moves to the left lateral end.
- the detector 58 emits infrared light and captures the amount of infrared light reflected from the reflector 67a, measures the thickness of the film 6a, and detects the thickness deviation (thickness variation) in the width direction of the film 6a. To detect.
- the detector 58 is moved laterally in the direction of the arrow Y, and the uneven thickness of the film 6b is detected by the same operation as described above.
- the thickness gauge 24 provided in the insulation film manufacturing apparatus of this embodiment, as described above, two sheets are cut by one detector without using two detectors.
- the thickness of the opened films 6a and 6b can be measured. Therefore, it is economical and the structure is simple. Therefore, it becomes compact and easy to use.
- a detector having a detection surface on one side is moved laterally between two flat films 6a and 6b conveyed in the longitudinal direction opposite to each other, If the detection surface of the detector is rotated by 180 degrees from a state facing one of the two flat films 6a and 6b facing each other to a state facing the other, the two detectors can be used. Use The thickness of the films 6a and 6b cut into two pieces can be measured with one detector without the need for measurement.
- the blown film manufacturing apparatus is similar to the blown film manufacturing apparatus according to the above-described embodiments 1 to 3, in that the thickness of the tubular film manufactured by improving the air ring portion is reduced.
- a thickness gauge capable of more accurately measuring the thickness of the tubular film is provided, and as a result, the uneven thickness prevention in the blown film manufacturing apparatus described in Examples 1 to 3 described above is further improved. It is intended to be able to do it reliably.
- the thickness gauge 24 provided in the blown film manufacturing apparatus of this example, the manufactured tubular film 6 was cut open by the slit blade 9 to obtain two flat films 6a and 6b. The thickness of each is measured later.
- the thickness gauge 24 solves the problem of the thickness gauge provided in the conventional inflation film manufacturing apparatus described with reference to Fig. 24, and the conventional inflation film described with reference to Fig. 24 is used.
- the same components as those of the thickness gauge provided in the manufacturing apparatus are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.
- this thickness gauge is configured such that the film 6a is cut and cut into two pieces and the film 6a is brought into contact with the reference roll surface 70 while running.
- This is a non-contact measurement sensor that measures the thickness by irradiating a laser beam 71 from the tangential direction of the surface of the reference roll 70 that is running in contact. That is, the thickness gauge is a non-contact measurement sensor that measures the thickness of the film 6a running in contact with the reference roll surface 70 in a non-contact manner.
- suction means 73 for reducing the pressure at the contact portion between the film 6a and the surface of the reference roll 70. Is what it is.
- the reference roll 70 and the fan 70 are sucked through the suction means 73 by the blower (not shown).
- the air between the film 6a and the film 6a is sucked, the air pressure in this portion is reduced to a negative pressure, and the film 6a is brought into close contact with the reference roll 70. That is, the pressure is reduced in the vicinity of the portion where the reference roll 70 and the film 6a are in contact with each other, thereby bringing the film into close contact.
- the film 6a is reliably moved to the reference roll 7 by the suction force of the suction means 73.
- the thickness of the film 6a can be accurately detected.
- Embodiments 1 to 3 can be used to accurately determine the cooling state (cooling air volume, temperature, etc.) using the cooling air. It is possible to control the occurrence of uneven thickness more reliably.
- a laser beam shielding type detector is employed as a non-contact measurement sensor for measuring the thickness of the film 6a running in contact with the reference roll surface 70 in a non-contact manner.
- Various non-contact measurement sensors such as a laser or a supersonic wave reflection type detector can be employed instead of the laser beam shielding type detector.
