To solve problems of conventional receiving tools used for drying moldings molded by extruding water-containing plastic body from an extrusion-molding machine, wherein the tool is heavy and difficult to handle, and cannot be heated quickly due to a large heat capacity.

The metallic receiving tool 1 receiving soft moldings having roughly circular contour extrusion-molded by the extrusion-molding machine, is formed into a monocoque structure (stressed-skin structure) by a metallic thin plate, and a recessed part 5 for placing the molding 100 is provided at the center of an upper face. By using the receiving tool 1, the molding is dried by indirect heating in a drying chamber, containing the receiving tool 1 in a metallic shelf plate 21 in a roughly sealed state with a lid 22.
