  • Patent number: 11897020
    Abstract: A reciprocating linear motion mechanism for a can body maker includes: a housing including an internal gear; a first rotation body; a first bearing connecting the housing and the first rotation body; a convex part protruding toward one side of an axis direction in the axis direction; a second rotation body including an external gear meshing with the internal gear; a recess recessed toward onside in the axis direction from a surface facing the other side of the second rotation body in the axis direction and into which the convex part is inserted; a second bearing connecting the convex part and the recess; and a ram shaft connection part connected to the second rotation body and moved linearly in a reciprocating manner, wherein the internal gear, the external gear, the recess, the second bearing, and the convex part overlap each other.

  • Publication number: 20220016690
    Abstract: A can body maker includes a ram shaft extending in a front-rear direction, a punch disposed at a front end portion of the ram shaft, a reciprocating linear motion mechanism connected to a rear end portion of the ram shaft to reciprocate and linearly move the ram shaft in the front-rear direction, a die having a through hole into which the punch is inserted, a cup holding mechanism which presses a cup-shaped body against an end face in which the through hole of the die opens, and a cup holder drive mechanism that oscillates the cup holding mechanism in the front-rear direction, wherein the cup holder drive mechanism has a cam structure and is disposed directly below the cup holding mechanism.
