  • Publication number: 20240024944
    Abstract: A seaming shaft arrangement for a sealer for attaching a can lid to a can body. The seaming shaft arrangement includes a seaming head, an ejection rod, an ejection head arranged on the ejection rod and movable with the ejection rod relative to the seaming, and a spring assembly by which the ejection head is resiliently mounted on the ejection rod. The spring assembly includes a slider arranged movably in the axial direction on the ejection rod, and a first elastic element arranged between a first abutment surface of the slider and a first supporting surface of the ejection rod, and a second elastic element arranged between a second abutment surface of the slider and a second supporting surface of the ejection head.

  • Patent number: 10759551
    Abstract: An ejection head for an ejection device of a sealing machine for sealing a container includes a supporting element with a supporting axis and a sliding end, and a sliding element for sliding the supporting element along a sliding profile of the sealing machine. The sliding element is arranged at the sliding end and a force acting essentially in the direction of the supporting axis is capable of being transmitted via the sliding element to the supporting element. So that the sliding element and the sliding profile are subject to reduced wear, the sliding element is a rotatable rolling element, so that in the operating state the supporting element is capable of being unrolled over the rotatable rolling element along the sliding profile.
