Abstract
An apparatus for feeding a screw-type extruder with material strips made of rubber mixtures or plastics mixtures, which strips are arranged in a folded zig-zag shape and can be supplied by means of at least one conveyor belt to a supply region of a supply element that is funnel-shaped, at least in portions, and an extruder. A motor-driven conveyor device for the material strip is arranged within the supply region, which device comprises a pressure surface that can abut the surface of the material strip and can be moved in a reversing manner. Said pressure surface only abuts the surface of the material strip in the conveying direction and, in the direction opposite the conveying direction, it adopts a return position in which it is spaced from the surface of the material strip.
