In view thereof the method of the invention is characterized by 5) applying an internal coating on these bodies using an applying device carried by an arm, which extends in lengthwise direction from a region located upstream of the region were the edge zones are made to overlap.
The device according to the invention is characterized by an applying device for applying an internal coating on these bodies, which applying device is carried by an arm which extends in lengthwise direction from a region located upstream relative to the adhering means.
Full continuity can be ensured for instance with a method characterized by - 6) causing the sheets and the can bodies to push one against the other, also at the position where step (5) takes place.
The method can be particularly characterized by - 7) performing step 4) by welding.
The invention gives preference to a method which is characterized by - 8) performing step 5) by applying a coating of a synthetic resin powder;
- 9) causing said powder to melt, run out and enamel by supplying heat; and
- 10) causing the thus formed coating to cure by cooling.
The method can for instance be characterized by - 11) performing step 5) by applying a coating on the entire inner surface of the successive bodies.
The method may also be characterized by - 12) performing step 5) by applying a coating over the seam of the overlapping zones.
In order to be certain that the critical region of the seam, where a sharp edge is in any case present, is completely covered by the coating, which is of decisive importance particularly for food products, the method can be characterized in a preferred embodiment by - 13) performing step 11) in combination with step 12) such that a coating of increased thickness is situated over the said seam.
A highly effective application of the powder can be ensured by - 14) performing step 8) by electrically charging the powder beforehand.
This method can for instance be embodied such that it is characterized by - 15) performing step 14) by subjecting the powder to a corona discharge.
In preference however this method is characterized by - 16) performing step 14) by guiding the powder along the surface of an isolator.
- For mutually adhering the overlapping portions of the edge zones the device can advantageously display the feature that the adhering means comprise two co-acting welding rollers, whereof the first engages on the outside and the second on the inside of said overlapping portions, which first welding roller is supported by the arm carrying the applying device.
- Very simple but nevertheless reliable production is ensured with a variant which has the feature that the overlapping portions are held in position by guide grooves in a block.
- In an embodiment where the applying device is adapted for applying synthetic resin powder the device can be further characterized by a heat treatment station for causing powder to melt, run out and enamel through supply of heat and the thus formed coating to cure through cooling.
- In a particular embodiment the device may have the feature that the applying means are arranged for applying a coating on the entire inner surface of the successive bodies. The device may also have the feature that the applying means are arranged for applying a coating over the seam of the overlapping zones. It is further possible for the device to have the feature that the applying means are arranged for applying a coating on the entire inner surface of the successive bodies and moreover a coating over the seam of the overlapping zones such that a coating of increased thickness is situated over the said seam.
- For applying powder with great homogeneity and reliability over the entire surface for coating the device can be characterized by a charging station for electrically charging powder to be applied.
- Use can be made for this purpose of corona means or of an isolator surface, along which the powder for applying is guided, at an interval from which surface is located a conductor surface with earth connection for draining charge. In this latter case the device can be characterized by at least one tube of an insulating material, for instance PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) and a conductor for connection to earth arranged close fitting around it.
- The device preferably displays the feature that via a conducting, for instance carbonaceous, medium such as a paste the isolator has a connection externally to metal, for example aluminium, for connection to earth. Hereby ensured is an effective charging of the powder in addition to a rapid draining of the static charge formed in the isolator.
- The invention also relates to a can body manufactured with the method according to the invention in addition to a can with such a body.
- The invention offers a number of important advantages. Compared to processes with wet lacquer a considerable energy saving is possible, namely in the order of 40 to 60%. The process according to the invention enables lacquer standardization. According to the invention, applying of the coating to successive objects takes place in a fluent, continuous movement relative to the applying station. The process therefore requires only one production line.
- The invention will now be elucidated with reference to the annexed drawing, wherein:
- Fig. 1 shows a partly broken away schematic perspective view of a first part of a device according to the invention, wherein the can bodies are made from sheets;
- Fig. 2 shows a view corresponding with fig. 1 of a second part of the device according to the invention shown therein, wherein the can bodies are provided internally with a layer of powder;
- Fig. 3 and 4 show respectively the details III and IV of fig. 1 in cross section on enlarged scale;
- Fig. 5 shows a view corresponding with fig. 2 of a variant which is arranged for also applying an additional layer of powder on the seams of the can bodies;
- Fig. 6 is a partly broken away perspective view of the welding station;
- Fig. 7 is a partly broken away perspective view of the spray nozzle on enlarged scale; and
- Fig. 8 shows on enlarged scale a perspective view of one of the single charging tubes according to fig. 7.
- Fig. 1 shows a device 1 for manufacturing metal can bodies with an internal coating. Device 1 comprises a
stock holder 2 wherein a stack ofmetal sheets 3 is arranged. By means of a take-off member 4 thebottom sheet 3 is removed each time from the stack and guided in the direction of arrows 5 through a cracking station 6 in which the sheet is rid of residual stresses by light bending in opposing directions. - After leaving the cracking station 6 the relevant sheet is bent round by means of bending rollers 7 to the rounded shape designated 3'. The dimensioning of device 1 is such that the leading edge 8 of the bent round sheet 3' is arranged in a guide groove 9 in a
guide block 10. This is shown in more detail in fig. 3. Thetrailing edge 11 is arranged in asecond guide groove 12 ofblock 10. - After the described tangential in-feed an axial transport is performed in the direction of
arrows 13 by means ofcarrier fingers 114 and guide rails 115. - The tangential in-feed and axial transporting are carried out around an
arm 14 which serves to bear awelding roller 15 and aspray nozzle 22, 23 (see also fig. 2 and 5). - The bending of sheets 3' by the rollers 7 takes place such that the
edges 8, 11 press through the tension of the sheets 3' themselves against the bottoms of theguide grooves 9, 12. These grooves gradually increase in depth in the direction ofarrows 13 as will be apparent from comparing figures 3 and 4. The leading edge 8 and trailingedge 11 of sheets 3' are thus placed in overlap such that after leavingblock 10 they can be welded fixedly to one another by the above mentionedinternal welding roller 15 and anexternal welding roller 16. - An
electric power unit 17 is connected via apower supply cable 18 to theouter welding roller 16 and via apower supply cable 19 to theinner welding roller 15. Thecable 19 extends through thearm 14. - The
arm 14 is supported by a frame 20 and is also arranged to encase diverse lines, at least one of which can be connected to a reservoir for powder which has to be applied in a manner to be described hereinafter to the inner surface of the can bodies to be manufactured by device 1. The relevant powder line can also be connected to a source of medium under pressure, in particular compressed air, for transporting and distributing the powder. - In this embodiment the mentioned
spray nozzles arm 14. The guiding of the can bodies 3' in the vicinity of thewelding rollers rolls 24, the guiding function of which is taken over in the region of thespray nozzles guide ropes 25. An encasing 26 serves via asuction line 27 to draw off excess powder at the position of thespray nozzles - The positioning of the
spray nozzles external rolls 28 which are supported via the meanwhile finished, i.e. fixedly welded, can bodies 3'' by means ofrolls 29 present on the end of thenozzles - The spray nozzles 22, 23 distribute the
powder 30, electrically charged in a manner to be further described, homogeneously over the inner surface of the finished can bodies 3''. A homogeneous application of a coating consisting of powder hereby takes place. As a result of the electrical charge transferred to thepowder 30 thispowder 30 adheres well to the relevant inner surface. - As fig. 2 shows, the
spray nozzle 22 delivers thepowder 30 at itsextremity 31. - The variant according to fig. 5 also comprises a slot-like
powder delivery opening 32 which is arranged on top of thespray nozzle 23 and which is provided on its side edges with brushes 33. Theopening 32 delivers a directed jet of electrically chargedpowder 30 for applying a coating over theseam 34 of the said overlapping zones of the can bodies 3'', namely the leading edge 8 and the trailingedge 11. Thespray nozzle 23 thus first performs an application of powder onto theseam 34 and then applies a layer of powder homogeneously over the whole inner surface. Thus achieved is that a coating of increased thickness is situated over the saidseam 34. - By means of a heat treatment station (not drawn) placed downstream of the
spray nozzle powder 30 present on the inner surface of the can bodies 3'' melts, runs out and enamels, and can subsequently cure through cooling. - In this latter respect it is pointed out that applying a coating according to the invention can be carried out not only by making use of powder but use can also be made for instance of liquid means.
- Means for electrically charging the powder are arranged in the
spray nozzles - Use can for instance be made of a high-voltage transformer which receives its supply via the
arm 14 and the frame 20. One of the mentionedlines 21 can therefore provide such a supply. A high-voltage transformer can be arranged in thespray nozzles - The embodiments of the invention discussed here are equipped however for charging the
powder 30 by means of triboelectricity. Fig. 7 shows thespray nozzle 22. This comprises eight chargingtubes 35 for electrically chargingpowder 30 passed through at great speed according toarrows 36. - Fig. 8 shows such a charging
tube 35. It comprises aPTFE tube 37, anintermediate tube 38 arranged therearound which is conducting because it contains carbon and, arranged around this latter, analuminium tube 39 which is connected toearth 40 for draining static charge. This structure is capable of charging thepowder 30 through electrokinesis or frictional electricity to a voltage in the order of 40-80 kV, whereby a very effective coating of the powder on the inner surface of the can bodies 3'' is ensured. - With regard to welding together of the
edges 8 and 11 of the bent sheets 3' for forming the can bodies 3'' it is noted that at the location of the welding operation these sheets 3' and the bodies 3'' may not lie adjoining each other so as to avoid electrical short circuit. Use is made in practice of a mutual interval of several millimetres. It will be apparent that this is requirement is not necessary beyond the welding station and that particularly in the applying of the powder it could even be advantageous if the bodies 3' processed there were to lie at least practically adjoining, since this could possibly stimulate the effectiveness of the application of the powder. - No attention is paid in the figures and description to control and measuring elements, such as temperature sensors, which can form part of the device.
- The invention offers a method and a device enabling can bodies with internal coating to be manufactured with very simple means from metal sheets in one processing run. The performing of an additional manufacturing step, particularly the applying of a lacquer layer, is no longer necessary according to the invention. In the embodiment of fig. 5 the critical seam can be provided with an extra coating, while the rest of the surface is provided with the single, thinner layer. This is an advantage compared to the prior art, wherein the layer thickness must always correspond with the required relatively great layer thickness for covering a seam. On the one hand a cost saving can be realized, while on the other hand a better quality can also be ensured.
