Apparatus for manufacturing a carbonaceous heat source chip, capable of
drying an extrusion-molded carbonaceous heat source rod to proper
hardness and supplying the same to a heat insulating material-wrapping
device. The apparatus includes a hollow pipe that forms a conveying path
for transporting the carbonaceous heat source rod continuously
extrusion-molded by an extrusion molding machine, to the heat insulating
material-wrapping device. The apparatus forms an airflow running through
the hollow pipe by means of an air amplifier, and transports the
carbonaceous heat source rod while drying the rod by using the airflow.
