Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for utilizing a spin forming tool to form a distinct geometric shape in a container end closure which is adapted for interconnection to a container neck and which has improved strength and buckle resistance.
- Containers and more specifically metallic beverage containers, are typically manufactured by interconnecting a beverage can end closure on a beverage container body.
- an end closure may be interconnected on both a top side and a bottom side of a can body.
- a beverage can end closure is interconnected on a top end of a beverage can body which is drawn and ironed from a flat sheet of blank material such as aluminum. Due to the potentially high internal pressures generated by carbonated beverages, both the beverage can body and the beverage can end closure are typically required to sustain internal pressures exceeding 90 psi without catastrophic and permanent deformation. Further, depending on various environmental conditions such as heat, over fill, high CO2 content, and vibration, the internal pressure in a typical beverage can may at times exceed 100 psi. Thus, beverage can bodies and end closures must be durable to withstand high internal pressures, yet manufactured with extremely thin and durable materials such as aluminum to decrease the overall cost of the manufacturing process and the weight of the finished product.
- the following disclosure describes an improved container end closure which is adapted for interconnection to a container body and which has an improved countersink, chuck wall geometry, and unit depth which significantly saves material costs, yet can withstand significant internal pressures.
- one or more shaping rollers are utilized to spin-form OTiEKiterior wall portion of a chuck wall or an end closure countersink to provide improved strength characteristics and potential material savings.
- spin-form may also be referred to as “reform” or "reprofile” and may generally be defined as a process to alter the geometric profile of a container end closure.
- a method for changing the geometry of a metal end closure comprising:
- a method for creating a preferred geometry of a metallic end closure which is adapted for interconnection to a neck of a container comprising: a) providing a metallic end closure comprising a peripheral cover hook, a chuck- wall extending downwardly therefrom, a countersink having an outer panel wall interconnected to a lower end of the chuck wall, and an inner panel wall interconnected to a central panel; b) providing a shaping tool which rotates around a central axis, said shaping tool in having an outer surface with a predetermined shape; c) positioning said outer surface of said shaping tool in contact with at least one of the inner panel wall, the outer panel wall and the chuck wall, wherein a predetermined shape is created in said end closure when said shaping tool engages said metallic end closure.
- the shaping rollers are interconnected to an apparatus which rotates about a given axis which allows the shaping rollers to be positioned against the end closure to create a preferred shape.
- the end closure is rotated about one or more shaping rollers, which are substantially stationary.
- an apparatus for forming a preferred geometry in a metallic end closure by utilizing a tool which rotates around a substantially stationary end closure comprising: a means for retaining said end closure in a substantially stationary position; a container spin-forming assembly comprising a roller block aligned in opposing relationship to the end closure, said roller block having an outer annular edge and a leading surface; a rotating means for rotating said spin-forming assembly; a pair of reform rollers which project outwardly from said roller block leading surface and which are operably sized to engage an inner panel wall of the end closure of the container; and a biasing means operably interconnected to said pair of reform rollers, wherein when a force is applied to an annular flange on said pair of reform rollers by the end closure, said reform rollers extend outwardly toward said outer annular edge of said roller block, wherein a preferred geometric profile is created on the inner panel wall of the end closure.
- one or more inwardly or outwardly extending reinforcing beads are formed in the chuck wall or inner or outer panel walls of the countersink to create a desired shape in a container end closure.
- a metallic end closure adapted for interconnection to a sidewall of a container body, comprising: a peripheral cover hook; a chuck wall extending downwardly from said peripheral cover hook; a countersink comprising an outer panel wall interconnected to a lower end of said chuck wall and an inner panel interconnected to a central panel; and a channel with a predetermined geometric profile positioned in at least one of said inner panel or said outer panel of said countersink, wherein the distance between said inner panel wall and outer panel wall at said channel is less than the distance between the outer panel wall and the lower panel wall in a lower portion of the countersink.
