Abstract
An apparatus for continuously producing a tube having helical grooves in its surface comprises a first drum, a flier having an axis intersecting the axis of the first drum at right angles therewith and rotatable around the first drum, and a second drum. One of the two drums serves as a pay-off drum for paying off a tube having straight grooves in its inner surface, while the other drum serves as a take-up drum for winding thereon the helically grooved tube obtained. At one side of the pay-off drum where the paid-off straight-grooved tube is to be transferred to the flier, a device is provided for preventing the torsion of the tube produced by the rotation of the flier from being transmitted toward the pay-off drum. A correcting device is provided between the flier and the take-up drum for remedying deformation of the helically grooved tube. With the rotation of the flier, the straight-grooved tube is twisted, whereby the straight grooves are deformed to helical grooves to afford a helically grooved tube.
