  • Publication number: 20210308736
    Abstract: An apparatus and tool set forming a three-dimensionally shaped portion on a shoulder of a can including an inner roll having a receiver for receiving the shoulder from inside; an outer roll for pressing the shoulder from outside; and a rotating unit for rotating the inner roll and the outer roll relative to the can. The shoulder is formed on a side of an upper end of a cylindrical body of the can in a can axis direction to be reduced in a diameter toward a side of a mouth of the can and to have a thickness of 0.1 to 0.3 mm. The receptor of the inner roll has at least one of a concave portion and a convex portion, and has a diameter reduced portion corresponding to a shape of the shoulder. Further, the inner roll and the outer roll are rotated by the rotating unit.

  • Patent number: 11103914
    Abstract: A can 1 is provided with a mouth part (4), a shoulder part (3), and a body part (2). The shoulder part (3) of the can (1) is decorated, without damaging the shoulder part (3), by forming at least one of a recess and a protrusion by a rotating process in which the shoulder part (3) is held between a receiver (11a), having a concave-convex shape, of an inner roll (11) and an outer roll (12) having a convex-concave shape corresponding to the concave-convex shape of the receiver (11a) of the inner roll (11).

  • Patent number: 7337646
    Abstract: A method and a device for manufacturing a synthetic resin coated metal can body capable of drawing and ironing the synthetic resin coated metal can body with a large processing quantity without causing can body breakage. First and second ironings are conducted to the side wall of a redrawn can (20) formed by drawing a thermoplastic resin-coated aluminum sheet (1) on both surfaces by a first ironing die (14) and a second ironing die (15) in that order according to the pressing-in of a punch (11) with such processing quantities that sheet thickness reduction ratios from an original sheet thickness come within the rages of 35 to 55% and 60 to 75% respectively for manufacturing a metal can body.

  • Patent number: 5659762
    Abstract: A method and device for rapidly restarting a computer system expansion device from a power save mode. The expansion device comprises a central processor for controlling the operation of the expansion device; a first memory, which is volatile, used as a working area by the central processor in handling tasks; interface for communicating with the computer system; power supply to each element in the expansion device; and a second memory, which is non-volatile and write-enable, for saving the context information held by the interface and the data stored in a first memory, in response to a request from the computer system via the interface.
