Abstract
The invention provides a method for manufacturing a climate control duct, the method capable of improving a characteristic of transferring a shape of a protrusion onto a surface of a duct and capable of preventing reduction in ventilation efficiency. In order to manufacture a climate control duct having a protrusion formed on an outer peripheral surface thereof, the method includes subjecting an extruded foamed resin to blow molding by use of a duct-shaped mold in which a groove for transfer of a shape of the protrusion is formed on at least part of a surface thereof. Herein, the following relations are satisfied: 0.5 mm<D<5 mm, D<W<4×D, and W<2×T, in which W represents a width of the groove, D represents a depth of the groove, and T represents a thickness of the foamed resin.
