An extruder head for producing flat cohesive profiled strips from resilient mixtures of differing composition, such as mixtures of rubber or synthetic material, and especially for manufacturing uncured tread strips for pneumatic tires having a two-ply central portion and two similar edge portions. The extruder head includes two extruders which are disposed at an acute angle next to or above one another, and feed a common extrusion nozzle via a preform die or member having flow channel which extend one above the other. The extruder head also has a third extruder which conveys the mixture for the edge portions and is connected to the preform die at a greater angle than are the aforementioned extruders. The flow route of the third extruder in the preform die, starting from its connecting bore, is initially guided as a single connecting channel to a direction-changing angle piece in the central region above or below the flow channels associated with the other two extruders, and from there is split into two branch channels which span the connecting channels, are essentially of equal length, and in their edge regions end in edge channels which lead into the edge portions of the profiled strip.

1. An extruder head to which three extruders are connected as a prerequisite for desired flowing together and satisfactory fusing of material mixtures controlled for producing a flat, cohesive profiled strip from resilient material mixtures having different compositions, said strip having a two-ply central portion, and two edge portions which are similar to one another; said extruder head comprising: a first extruder; a second extruder which is associated with said first extruder at an acute angle thereto; an extrusion nozzle; a preform die member which includes two flow channels disposed one above the other and respectively connected to one of said first and second extruders and to said nozzle so that material can be fed from said first and second extruders, via said flow channels, to said extrusion nozzle for said central portion of said profiled strip; and also a third extruder connected to said preform die member, which further includes, starting from the point of connection of said third extruder thereto, a single connecting channel which leads to that portion of said preform die member in which said flow channels are disposed one above the other; in this last-mentioned portion of said preform die member, said connecting channel being split into two branch channels which span said flow channels, are essentially of the same length, and respectively end in an edge channel, both of which are connected to said extrusion nozzle so that material can be fed from said third extruder, via said single connecting channel, said branch channels, and said edge channels of said preform die member, to said extrusion nozzle for said edge portions of said profiled strip. 2. An extruder head according to claim 1, in which an angle piece is interposed between, and communicates with, said connecting channel and said branch channels. 3. An extruder head according to claim 2, in which said connecting channel, and said branch channels, essentially extend in straight lines and are disposed parallel to one another. 4. An extruder head according to claim 1, in which the cross-sectional area of passage of each of said branch channels is equal to approximately half of the cross-sectional area of passage of said connecting channel.
