Definitions

  • the invention relates to a can body with a bottom and one from this towering, surrounding side wall surrounding an interior.
  • Can bodies are known in many forms. Very different They pack food and the demands placed on them in terms of aesthetic appearance, durability, stability and stackability switch.
  • a tin made of tin is known is circular in cross section, the side walls of which expand upwards and which has a bottom that on the bottom by means of an annular actuator Floor stands while the central area of the floor is curved upwards is not touching the floor when parking.
  • the side walls are curved.
  • the stability of the can body becomes increased, because completely flat floors could warp and In the case of production-related irregularities, this also leads to the can body is not defined on the floor, but for example only punctiform on a more or less randomly lowest point on the ground rests unstably and the entire can therefore tends to wobble.
  • control element that is the round peripheral edge, on which the can body is now rests on the floor in this known embodiment a finite width; it merges slightly into the side wall.
  • the object of the invention is therefore such To propose a can body.
  • the invention solves this problem with a can body with Floor and one that surrounds an interior and surrounds it Side wall, which with its upper edge an opening of the interior limited all around, the interior expanding conically upwards and the side wall surrounding it in a curve in the bottom passes over that a circumferential ring-shaped support line is created, the floor is initially extended further upwards, but then through a downwardly projecting circumferential annular bead a support surface with a width of 1.5 mm, in particular from 2 to 10 mm.
  • Such a can body has a significant number of advantages: Outside, its contact surface is given by an annular line when it is parked. Further inside there is an additional contact surface with a defined one Width, which is approximately parallel, also ring-shaped, to the support line extends. The combination of these two support areas comes into play Tests as extremely stability-enhancing. It arises in the transferred A kind of three-point bearing, namely by a flat and a line-shaped support, ie a section and a point on average.
  • This contact surface is not only against forces from the side, from below or also particularly stable from the can body itself, it is also immune against manufacturing tolerances and resists from inside the can body originating tensile and bending forces. These powers cannot only arise from the filling of the tin, but also when a series of empty can bodies are put together.
  • the flared side walls allow that empty cans after they are made and before they are filled in the food processing operation can be nested in a space-saving manner. Naturally this leads to forces that the empty tin can bodies exert on one another. It is precisely these forces that are created by this special training intercepted the ground.
  • the upper edge is around the opening around has an edge profile with three alternate curvatures that form a shoulder or a step edge.
  • the stacked, slightly conical containers now support each other each with the step edge from each other, so that the conical side walls otherwise not or hardly come into contact with each other and jamming is impossible.
  • the can body is made of metal.
  • metal it is also conceivable to place these shapes on plastic containers expand, in the case of metallic bodies, the inventive ones have been tested However, features proved to be particularly advantageous.
  • the rounding has a radius of curvature of more than 4 mm.
  • the curve where the side walls merge with the floor are authoritative for the extent of the line shape of the support line, too for the behavior of the can body when it is out of its rest position is brought out, for example in a filled form on the shelf of a supermarket. Due to the relatively large curvature with a large radius of curvature the self-adjustment of the can body in filled form is special cheap to do. The visual and aesthetic appearance of greater advantage; it creates a crowned, soup-pot-like shape that is special is attractive.
  • opening is circular. Of course it is too possible, oval, roughly rectangular, or completely different shapes Provide openings, the shape of which then of course extends into the floor area affects it.
  • the distance between the support line and the support surface should advantageously be between 7 and 30 mm. With these dimensions comes the even distribution of the forces acting on the ground is particularly good to advantage.
  • the diameter of the annular contact surface should be approximately 20 to 80 mm. This also reinforces the inventive effect.
  • the stacking and unstacking of non-round cans in particular further improved if the side wall is provided with corrugations.
  • the circumferential side wall is so stiff that a compression of the Sidewall does not enter. This also keeps the can body Strain its shape.
  • Such a burden can be particularly during Filling the can containers occur, especially when flaring the lid after filling.
  • Dimensional stability of the body is important to good material overlay of lid and container to each other to ensure the To allow flaring, in which yes the materials of the can body and associated lid are folded into each other.
  • the ability to stack and unstack is also important because the tin can bodies are still empty placed inside each other as possible to save space must be able to be and then, if possible, by machines must be able to be taken apart so that not at Lift off the top can body, the next one follows. this will also supported by the ripples. This is especially true when the ripples run essentially vertically.
  • the corrugations not only have the task of stiffening the Side wall, but also the leadership of the various can bodies into each other, especially during the stacking or unstacking process. Because the corrugations run upwards, this is a light, even one Can be removed.
  • a can body has a bottom 10. From this bottom 10 protrudes a side wall 20.
  • the side wall 20 surrounds an interior space 30 Interior 30 is the to be transported with the tin and in their goods to be stored, in particular foodstuffs.
  • the upper edge of the side wall 20 surrounds an opening 31 of the interior 30 all around; this opening can (indicated in Figures 3 and 5) be closed by a cover 40 and this is usually after Filling with the contents too.
  • the interior 30 widens conically upwards. This means that from the circumferential side wall 20 projecting from the floor diverges upwards. At the bottom, the side wall 20 merges into the floor 10 in a curve 21. This is done in such a way that the curve 21 is a circumferential annular support line 11 forms.
  • the curve itself has a radius of curvature of e.g. 4.5 mm or 8 mm for can bodies of typical sizes.
  • this support line 11 appears in Figure 1 as a point.
  • the floor 10 extends inwards from the support line 11 however, initially upwards, so it leaves the support level.
  • the bead 15 can also be seen obliquely from the top inwards; from the interior 30 it shows itself as a projection downwards with no shading whatsoever due to its flat, flat design. Also flat and without shading is the central area of the bottom 10, which, in contrast to the bead 15, does not lie on the bottom when the can body is turned off.
  • the opening 31 of the interior 30 is, as stated, from the upper edge the side wall 20 surrounded. This is alternating as an edge profile with three inward or outward curved curvatures that provide a shoulder 22 or form a step edge. Two containers protrude one above the other with their conically shaped side walls 20 into each other, the side walls run parallel to each other at a slight distance from each other would. The schools 22 then rest on one another. This stacking behavior will supported by the bead 15, which the stability and thus the centricity behavior the container favors.
  • FIG. 3 shows the embodiment from FIG. 2 less steeply, and the right quarter of the can body facing the viewer is cut away. A cut edge can thus be seen, which corresponds to that in the right field of FIG. 1, but at the same time also illustrates the curves and proportions resulting in three dimensions.
  • the cover 40 is shown (not cut away) at a distance above the opening 31.
  • FIG. 4 Another embodiment of a can body shows the figures 4 and 5.
  • the opening 31 is not circular but rather rectangular with rounded corners, i.e. roughly oval.
  • the ring-shaped Bead 15 and the annular support line 11 each also straight-line passages.
  • the side wall or side walls 20 are slightly conical upwards trained apart.
  • FIG. 6 A third embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 6 .
  • This embodiment is also a spherical box and has a non-round, slightly conical shape similar to the embodiment of FIGS. 4 and 5, here additionally a step edge 22 with side corrugations 25.
  • some reference numerals have been omitted here, which correspond to those of the other figures.
  • the container or can body has a relatively large radius at the transition from the side wall to the floor 10.
  • the circumferential side wall 20 is so stiff that the side wall deflects 20 does not occur. This keeps the body in shape and enables a good material overlay between the lid 40 and the container, so that a secure flanging of the lid 40 can take place.
  • the corrugations 25 run upwards in the area of the step edge 22, that is, on Height of the second shoulder, between the first and second shoulder or in the first shoulder.
  • the leadership of the side ridges 25 in connection with the Shoulder causes an extremely good wall rigidity, so that the on the side wall 20 transmitted force of the crimping tools during crimping not to theirs Deformation leads and on the other hand in the case of stacked can bodies, which are filled and sealed, even when filling the Side walls 20 the required rigidity against buckling or buckling gives.
