Carbon nanotube collection apparatus, carbon nanotube manufacturing apparatus, and carbon nanotube collection method

A carbon nanotube collection apparatus for collecting a carbon nanotube produced by a carbon nanotube production apparatus, the carbon nanotube collection apparatus comprising:

• a collection room having an opening part communicating with the carbon nanotube production apparatus;
• a winding member arranged inside the collection room and configured to wind the carbon nanotube passed through the opening part from the carbon nanotube production apparatus to form a carbon nanotube wound body;
• and
• a separation mechanism configured to move the carbon nanotube wound body from a base end side toward a tip end side of the winding member to separate the carbon nanotube wound body from the winding member.
