Abstract
In a screw extrusion device used for extruding plastics materials, a filter or tool-carrier is disposed at the downstream or outlet end of the extruder, an annular pressure element bearing on the carrier so as to secure and seal the carrier in its operative position. The carrier is displaceable perpendicularly to the flowpath of the plastics material so as to permit facile changing of the filter element. The annular pressure element is acted upon by hydraulic fluid, the hydraulic circuit including an annular pressure chamber. The inner and outer walls of the chamber are formed, respectively, by concentric metal bellows. One end of each bellows is mounted on the pressure element and the other end thereof on a housing.
