Abstract

An apparatus for producing a ribbed hose which is capable of effectively producing a ribbed hose irrespective of a diameter or size of a hose while preventing the apparatus from being large-sized. A cylinder is formed therein with a hose feed passage and a first drive mechanism is arranged for driving the cylinder. Also, a screw is arranged in parallel to the hose feed passage and driven by a second drive mechanism. The screw is provided on a distal end thereof with a nozzle, which is adapted to revolve around the hose to form a rib on a hose.
