A screw apparatus comprises a melting extruder (2) for melting a resin;a screw unit (1) for kneading molten resin and reinforcing fibers (450) to obtain a reinforcing fiber-containing molten resin and supplying it; and a mixer (21) in which at least a part of the reinforcing fibers (450) attach to the molten resin (241) which is extruded from the melting extruder (2) and flows down owing to gravity in an open space, and then the reinforcing fibers (450) and the molten resin (241) are fed into the screw unit (1). It becomes possible to obtain fiber-reinforced resin articles and fiber-reinforced resin pellets containing long reinforcing fibers with highly uniform the dispersion state of the reinforcing fibers in these articles and pellets.
