Claims2
An aftermixer for use in line with an impingement mixer to achieve improved mixing of a molding composition as it moves to a shaper, comprising an aftermixer member having an inlet opening connected by cavities therein to a series of outlet openings to permit the molding composition to move through the aftermixer to the shaper, said inlet opening of said mixer being connected to at least three outward radiating elongated hollow cavities that terminates in an enlarged accumulation chamber, each of said outward radiating elongated cavities having an interconnecting cavity positioned between them at a point past midpoint of distance from the inlet opening to the enlarged accumulation chamber, each interconnecting cavity having an elongated hollow cavity projecting outward therefrom to an outlet opening.
