Abstract

An injection head (10) is described for a corrugator which is intended for the production of plastics pipes. The injection head (10) has a main head (12), a nozzle body (14) and a mouthpiece means (16) with at least one mouthpiece (32, 36). The main head (12) is embodied with first channels (50, 52) and the nozzle body (14) is embodied with second channels (58, 60) which are flow-connected to the first channels (50, 52). The/each mouthpiece (32, 36) has a central body (74, 76) and a sleeve body, (78, 80) surrounding said central body. On its lateral surface (82, 84) facing the sleeve body (78, 80), the central body (74, 76) is embodied with wound plastics distributor grooves (86, 88) which are flow-connected by means of connecting portions (114, 120) to a concentric annular groove (112, 116) which is formed on the reverse surface (90, 92) of the central body (74, 76) and into which the second channels (58, 60) of the nozzle body (14) discharge.
