ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for manufacturing a hose for a vacuum cleaner, such hose having anti-whistling characteristics. In a standard blow molding process, a blow pipe is configured with a plurality of printing rollers having arcuate outer surfaces configured and spaced in such a manner as to assure engagement of the entirety of the hose with a printing roller during the manufacturing process. The printing rollers are provided with apertures which, upon engagement with the tacky material of the inner surface of inwardly extending corrugations causes indentations or protrusions in such surface. The roughened interior surface prevents the formation of audible harmonics when air passes through the tube response to a vacuum source at one end thereof.
