Description

  The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a bottomed cylindrical can and a can used for a can such as a two-piece can filled and sealed with contents such as beverages.

  As a can body to be filled and sealed with contents such as beverages, a bottomed cylindrical can having a can body (wall) and a can bottom (bottom), and a disc-like shape wound around the open end of the can A two-piece can provided with a can lid is known. The above can is specifically a DI can, and “DI” is an abbreviation for Drawing & Ironing.

  The can used for such a can body is formed into a bottomed cylinder by performing a cupping process (drawing process) and a DI process (drawing and squeezing process) on a disc-shaped blank punched out of a plate of aluminum alloy material. It is formed. Moreover, the diameter reduction process is given in the necking process at the opening edge part of the can body in the can which passed DI process, and a flange part is formed in a flanging process. The outer peripheral edge portion of the can lid is wound around the flange portion.

  For example, in the can manufacturing method of Patent Document 1 below, spin flow necking is applied to the opening end of the can body in the necking step. In spin flow necking, the opening end of the can body is squeezed between a pair of rolls from inside and outside while rotating the can around the axis of the can, and the opening end is directed toward the tip (opening) side. This is a process of reducing the diameter.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-58070

However, the conventional can manufacturing method has the following problems.
When the spin flow necking process is performed on the opening end of the can body, a process of reducing the diameter of the opening end in a plurality of stages, that is, a pre-neck process is performed in advance. By performing the pre-neck processing, it is possible to keep the processing accuracy stable while suppressing the processing amount at the time of spin flow necking processing to be small. On the other hand, by forming a plurality of steps at the opening end of the can body, the force to push back the external roll during spin flow necking is not constant, resulting in variations in torsional force, and can diameter May become unstable.

In recent years, from the viewpoint of environmental protection such as CO ₂ emission reduction, there is an increasing demand for weight reduction of aluminum cans by reducing raw materials used. Specifically, it is necessary to develop a lightweight can that does not impair pressure strength reduction and productivity, and that is strong against distribution pinholes, with the aim of reducing the weight of a can of 0.1 g or more (about 1% or more). Even with a reduction of 0.1 g per can, if it can be applied to 18 billion cans per year in the aluminum can market, a significant reduction in environmental impact can be achieved.
In order to reduce the weight of the can, it is necessary to reduce the weight of the blank. With this, the thickness of the opening end of the can body is also reduced. For this reason, at the time of spin flow necking, the opening end of the can body is easily deformed into an unexpected shape, and wrinkles are likely to occur at the opening end.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and when the can is reduced in weight, when the spin end necking process is performed on the opening end of the can body, the diameter of the can varies or an unexpected shape is obtained. An object of the present invention is to provide a can manufacturing method and a can that can remarkably suppress the occurrence of deformation and wrinkles and stably manufacture a high-quality can.

One aspect of the present invention includes a plate material punching process for punching a plate material to form a disk-shaped blank, a cupping process for drawing the blank into a cup-shaped body, and squeezing and squeezing the cup-shaped body. Forming a bottomed cylindrical can having a can body and a can bottom, and forming a spin flow necking scheduled portion at the opening end of the can body, and the inside of the opening end of the can body The spin flow necking process is performed after fitting a die on the outside and applying a pre-neck process to the spin flow necking scheduled part to reduce the diameter stepwise toward the outside of the can along the can axis direction. A spin flow necking process in which the diameter is gradually reduced toward the outside of the can along the axial direction of the can by narrowing the planned portion between the inside and outside of the opening end of the can body by a pair of rolls. And a necking step, wherein the blank material has a mass of 9.8 to 11.4 g, the thickness of the blank is 0.225 to 0.245 mm, In the DI step, the thickness of the thinnest portion of the can body that is located between the opening end along the can axis direction and the can bottom is 0.091 to 0.102 mm. The thickness of the spin flow necking scheduled portion is 0.153 to 0.162 mm.
One aspect of the present invention is a bottomed cylindrical can having a can body and a can bottom, wherein an opening end portion of the can body is formed with a spin flow necking scheduled portion, The thickness is 0.225 to 0.245 mm, and the thickness of the thinnest portion of the can body that is located between the open end along the can axis direction and the bottom of the can is 0.091 to 0.102 mm, the thickness of the spin flow necking scheduled portion is 0.153 to 0.162 mm, and the metal mass of the can is 9.8 to 10.8 g It is characterized by.

  According to the can manufacturing method and the can of the present invention, the mass of the blank is suppressed to a low value of 9.8 to 11.4 g. Moreover, the metal mass (mass excluding printing / coating) of the can manufactured from this blank is also suppressed to a low value of 9.8 to 10.8 g.

  Specifically, the blank is formed into a can through a cupping step, a DI step, and a necking step, but in the manufacture of the can, a trimming step of trimming the opening end of the can body is also included. In the trimming process, for example, about 0.6 g is removed from the opening end of the can formed into a bottomed cylindrical shape while maintaining the blank mass, including the concavo-convex convex portion (ear). That is, depending on the mass of the end material removed by the trimming process, the mass of the manufactured can may be less than the mass of the blank.

  In general, the mass of a conventional blank is 11.8 g or more, and the metal mass of a can manufactured from the blank is 11.2 g or more. That is, according to the present invention, a weight reduction of 0.4 to 1.4 g (at least 0.4 g or more) can be realized as compared with a conventional can.

In addition, while reducing the weight of the can in this way, the thickness of the blank (corresponding to the thickness of the can bottom of the manufactured can) is kept as small as 0.225 to 0.245 mm. A large thickness of the trunk can be secured.
Specifically, since the thickness of the blank is 0.225 mm or more, the thickness of the can bottom of the manufactured can is sufficiently secured, and bottom growth and buckling can be suppressed. In addition, when the thickness of the blank is smaller than 0.225 mm, it is difficult to maintain the forming accuracy of the spin flow necking process in the necking process.

  Moreover, since the thickness of a blank is 0.245 mm or less, a can can be reduced in weight reliably. In addition, when the surface area in the plan view of the blank is increased by reducing the thickness of the blank, it is preferable because the thickness of the can body can be easily secured.

Here, bottom growth and buckling will be described.
In general, the can bottom of the can has a dome portion recessed toward the inside of the can along the can axis direction, and an outer peripheral edge portion of the dome portion, and projects toward the outside of the can along the can axis direction and the can shaft. An annular convex portion (rim) extending along the circumferential direction is formed.
The bottom growth is a phenomenon in which the annular convex portion at the bottom of the can is deformed toward the outside in the radial direction perpendicular to the can axis while projecting to the outside of the can along the can axis direction (below the can). If bottom growth occurs, the height of the can (total length in the can axis direction) is not stable, which may cause problems in manufacturing and shipment. Buckling is a phenomenon in which the dome portion of the can bottom is inverted and protrudes outward in the can axis direction. When buckling occurs, the can cannot be shipped as a product.
According to the present invention, the bottom of the can and the buckling can be suppressed by sufficiently securing the thickness of the bottom of the can while reducing the weight of the can.

Moreover, the thickness of the thinnest part (hereinafter abbreviated as the thinnest part of the can body) located between the opening end along the can axis direction and the bottom of the can body is 0.091 to The strength is sufficiently secured while the thickness of the can body is reduced to 0.102 mm.
Specifically, since the thickness of the thinnest portion of the can body is 0.091 mm or more, occurrence of pinholes in the can body during manufacturing and distribution can be suppressed. In addition, the column strength of the can can be ensured to be as high as 1200 N or more, for example. By increasing the column strength in this way, it is possible to stably ensure the pressure resistance performance in the can axis direction of the can, particularly when the can lid is tightened. Moreover, since the thickness of the thinnest portion of the can body is 0.102 mm or less, the weight of the can can be reliably realized.

In addition, the thickness of the spin flow necking scheduled portion at the opening end of the can body is set to 0.153 to 0.162 mm to ensure a sufficiently large thickness.
Specifically, since the thickness of the spin flow necking scheduled portion is 0.153 mm or more, the spin flow necking process is performed when the rotating can is squeezed between a pair of rolls from inside and outside during the spin flow necking process. It is possible to prevent the planned portion (spin flow necking portion) from being able to withstand the molding load and being deformed into an unexpected shape. Moreover, it can suppress that a can diameter varies. Furthermore, wrinkles can be prevented from occurring at the opening end of the can body during the spin flow necking process. Moreover, since the thickness of the spin flow necking scheduled portion is 0.162 mm or less, the weight of the can can be reliably reduced.

As described above, according to the can manufacturing method of the present invention, when the can is reduced in weight, when the spin end necking process is performed on the opening end of the can body, the diameter of the can varies or the shape is changed to an unexpected shape. It is possible to remarkably suppress the occurrence of wrinkles and to stably produce a high-quality can.
Moreover, according to the can of this invention, the quality (processing precision) of a product can be improved stably, aiming at weight reduction.

Further, in the can manufacturing method, in the DI step, the thickness of the spin flow necking scheduled portion is located between the opening end portion along the can axis direction and the can bottom of the can body. The difference between the thickness of the thinnest part is preferably 0.063 mm or less.
In the can, the thickness of the spin flow necking scheduled portion and the thinnest portion of the can body that is located between the opening end and the bottom of the can along the can axis direction. The difference between the thickness and the thickness is preferably 0.063 mm or less.

  According to the above configuration, since the difference between the thickness of the spin flow necking scheduled portion and the thickness of the thinnest portion of the can body is 0.063 mm or less, the load acting on the can body during the spin flow necking processing ( Can be kept small, and the situation where the can body is twisted and deformed can be prevented.

  Specifically, at the time of spin flow necking, a pair of rolls comes into contact with the rotating can from the inside and the outside, and a load (resistance) against the rotational force acts, but the difference is 0.063 mm or less, It is possible to disperse a load with respect to the rotational force and suppress a large stress from being applied locally. Therefore, even if the can body is thinned as described above, torsional deformation during spin flow necking is suppressed.

Further, in the method for manufacturing a can, in the DI step, a dome portion that is recessed toward the inside of the can along the can axis direction and an outer peripheral edge portion of the dome portion at the can bottom, and in the can axis direction. An annular convex portion that protrudes toward the outside of the can and extends along the circumferential direction around the can axis, and is an outer peripheral wall of the annular convex portion in a longitudinal sectional view of the can along the can axial direction. In addition, a convex curved surface portion that is continuous with the can body and has a convex curve shape, and a concave curved surface portion that is continuous with the edge of the convex curved surface portion opposite to the can body and has a concave curved shape, Of the acute angle and obtuse angle formed between the common tangent line of the convex curved surface portion and the concave curved surface portion and the virtual straight line orthogonal to the can axis, the chime angle that is an acute angle is 31 to 36 °. It is preferable.
In the can, the bottom of the can has a dome portion recessed toward the inside of the can along the can axis direction and an outer peripheral edge portion of the dome portion, and toward the outside of the can along the can axis direction. And an annular convex portion that extends along the circumferential direction around the can axis, and is formed in a vertical cross-sectional view of the can along the can axial direction. A convex curved surface portion that is continuous and has a convex curved shape, and a concave curved surface portion that is continuous with the edge of the convex curved surface portion opposite to the can body and has a concave curved shape, are formed, and the convex curved surface portion and the Of the acute angle and the obtuse angle formed between the common tangent of the concave curved surface portion and the virtual straight line orthogonal to the can axis, the chime angle, which is an acute angle, is preferably 31 to 36 °.

According to the above configuration, since the chime angle is set to 31 to 36 °, the column strength of the can can be increased while ensuring a large printing area of the can body.
Specifically, since the chime angle is 31 ° or more, the inclination of the outer peripheral wall of the annular convex portion can be appropriately raised without being laid too much, so that the column strength of the can can be ensured to be large. Moreover, since the chime angle is 36 ° or less, the position of the edge (upper end of the convex curved surface portion) connected to the can body on the outer peripheral wall of the annular convex portion is the protruding end of the annular convex portion (the nose portion of the can bottom). It is possible to secure a large printing area of the can body by suppressing the excessive separation in the can axis direction.

Moreover, in the said manufacturing method of a can, in the said board | plate material punching process, mass% is Si: 0.1-0.5%, Fe: 0.3-0.7%, Cu: 0.05 as said board | plate material. -0.5%, Mn: 0.5-1.5%, Mg: 0.4-2.0%, Cr: 0-0.1%, Zn: 0-0.5%, Ti: 0 It is preferable to use an aluminum alloy made of aluminum containing 0.15% and the balance containing inevitable impurities.
Moreover, in the said can, as a material of the said can, the mass% is Si: 0.1-0.5%, Fe: 0.3-0.7%, Cu: 0.05-0.5%, Mn : 0.5 to 1.5%, Mg: 0.4 to 2.0%, Cr: 0 to 0.1%, Zn: 0 to 0.5%, Ti: 0 to 0.15% It is preferable to use an aluminum alloy made of aluminum with the balance containing inevitable impurities.

  By using the aluminum alloy having the above configuration as the material of the can, various performances of the can (pinhole resistance, column strength, dimensional stability of the can diameter, wrinkle generation inhibiting performance, etc.) can be enhanced.

Moreover, in the said manufacturing method of a can, it is preferable to use the aluminum alloy whose afterbaking proof stress is 266-304 N / mm < ² > as said board | plate material at the said board | plate material punching process.
Moreover, in the said can, it is preferable to use the aluminum alloy whose afterbaking proof stress is 266-304 N / mm < ² > as a material of the said can.

The after-baking yield strength is a method for evaluating an Al alloy material, and is a yield strength obtained by a tensile test after heating an Al alloy plate material at 210 ° C. for 10 minutes.
As described above, when the after-baking strength is 266 N / mm ² or more, the pressure resistance (bulge strength) of the can and the pinhole resistance of the can body can be sufficiently secured. Further, when the after baking yield strength is 304 N / mm ² or less, the hardness of the plate material can be moderately reduced to impart flexibility, and the occurrence of wrinkles at the opening end of the can body can be remarkably suppressed.

And an annular convex portion that extends along the circumferential direction around the can axis, and a concave portion that is recessed outward in the radial direction perpendicular to the can axis is formed on the inner circumferential wall of the annular convex portion. Preferably it is.

  As in the above configuration, by forming the concave part that dents outward in the radial direction on the inner peripheral wall of the annular convex part on the bottom of the can by bottom reforming (BPR processing), the pressure resistance strength (bulge strength) of the can is remarkable. It is possible to effectively suppress bottom growth and buckling. In addition, since the pressure resistance is increased, the range of selection of the can material (degree of freedom of selection) is expanded.

As shown in FIG.

Next, with reference to FIGS. 3 to 7, an example of a method for manufacturing the bottomed cylindrical can 10 from a plate material of an aluminum alloy material will be described.
As shown in FIG. 3, the can 10 includes a plate blanking process, a cupping process (drawing process), a DI process (drawing and ironing process), a trimming process, a printing process, a painting process, a necking process, a bottom reforming process, and a flanging process. Are manufactured in this order.

[Sheet punching process]
An ingot made of an aluminum alloy material is subjected to hot rolling, cold rolling and annealing to form an intermediate plate material having a predetermined thickness, and then the intermediate plate material is subjected to cold finish rolling to obtain a final thickness. Prepare the material (plate material).
Specifically, as the plate material which is the material of the can 10, the mass% is Si: 0.1 to 0.5%, Fe: 0.3 to 0.7%, Cu: 0.05 to 0.5. %, Mn: 0.5 to 1.5%, Mg: 0.4 to 2.0%, Cr: 0 to 0.1%, Zn: 0 to 0.5%, Ti: 0 to 0.15% An aluminum alloy made of aluminum containing the remainder and inevitable impurities is used.

Further, as the plate material, an aluminum alloy having an after baking yield strength of 266 to 304 N / mm ² is used. The after-baking yield strength is a method for evaluating an Al alloy material, and is a yield strength obtained by a tensile test after heating an Al alloy plate material at 210 ° C. for 10 minutes.

  This plate material is punched to form a disk-shaped blank W (punching) as shown in FIG. The blank W has a mass of 9.8 to 11.4 g and a thickness of 0.225 to 0.245 mm.

  Since the blank W is made of a rolled material of an Al alloy material, the anisotropy tends to increase (see, for example, JP-A-2008-126249 for the anisotropy of the Al alloy material). For this reason, an ear is generated at the open end 3a of the can W2 (see FIG. 4C) that has undergone the DI process described later. An ear | edge is a peak part (convex part) among the uneven | corrugated wave shape formed in the opening end part 3a of the said can W2. The ears are cut (trimmed) in the trimming process after the DI process, whereby the height of the edge of the opening end 3a of the can W3 after trimming (see FIG. 4D) is increased in the circumferential direction. It is aligned.

In the present embodiment, for the purpose of suppressing the height of the ears generated in the DI process, the blank W is formed in a generally disc shape in the plate punching process, but strictly, it is a non-circular shape that is not a perfect circle in plan view. . Specifically, a cut edge in a direction in which an ear is likely to occur is formed in advance in a small diameter in the outer peripheral edge of the blank W.
As a result, the height of the ear generated at the opening end 3a of the can W2 in the DI process is suppressed to be small, and the circumferential height of the edge of the opening end 3a is easily aligned, so that the cutting allowance (trim allowance) is reduced. The material cost can be reduced by reducing the material cost.

[Cupping process (drawing process)]
Next, as shown in FIG. 4B, the blank W is drawn by a cupping press (a cupping process) to form a cup-shaped body W1. The cup-shaped body W1 is a molded intermediate body that moves from the blank W to a can W2 (can 10 before trimming) described later.

  The cup-shaped body W1 has a bottomed cylindrical shape and has a peripheral wall and a bottom wall. 4B and 5A, the bottom wall of the cup-shaped body W1 has a cup-shaped body W1 along the cup axis (corresponding to the can axis O) direction of the cup-shaped body W1. A convex portion 23 is formed to project inward (upward).

  The convex portion 23 is located on the radially inner side (center side) of the outer peripheral edge portion of the bottom wall of the cup-shaped body W1, and is formed in a top tube shape coaxial with the cup shaft. The height at which the convex portion 23 projects upward from the portion (outer peripheral edge portion) other than the convex portion 23 in the bottom wall of the cup-shaped body W1 (corresponding to the depth in the bottom view of the bottom wall) is It is preferable that it is 5.5-6.5 mm. Moreover, the diameter of the convex part 23 is made larger than the diameter of the nose part 13 in the can bottom 4 of the can 10 manufactured.

  In the example of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5A, the convex portion 23 has a trapezoidal shape in a longitudinal sectional view along the cup axis direction of the cup-shaped body W1. In addition, in this longitudinal sectional view, the connecting portion between the top wall and the peripheral wall of the convex portion 23 is a curved shape (convex curve) that is convex outward and upward in the radial direction (that is, toward the outer diameter side and obliquely upward). Is formed. In this longitudinal sectional view, the radius of curvature of the connecting portion of the convex portion 23 and the circumferential length thereof are set corresponding to the circumferential length of the outer concave curved surface portion 19 of the outer peripheral wall 15 in the can bottom 4 of the can 10 to be manufactured. The

[DI process (drawing and ironing process)]
Next, as shown in FIG. 4 (c) and FIGS. 5 (a) to (d), DI processing (drawing (re-drawing) ironing) is performed on the cup-shaped body W1 with a DI processing apparatus, and the can It shape | molds in the bottomed cylindrical can W2 provided with the trunk | drum 3 and the can bottom 4. FIG.

  In FIG. 5A, the DI processing apparatus includes a single redraw die 31 having a through hole with a circular cross section for redraw processing, and a through hole with a circular cross section arranged coaxially with the redraw die 31. A plurality of (for example, three) ironing dies (ironing dies) (not shown) having the same shape, and coaxial with the ironing die, and can be fitted into the through-holes of the ironing dies. And a cylindrical or cylindrical punch sleeve 32 and a cylindrical cup holder sleeve 33 fitted to the outside of the punch sleeve 32.

  In the redrawing process by the DI processing apparatus, the cup-shaped body W1 is disposed between the punch sleeve 32 and the redrawing die 31, the cup holder sleeve 33 and the punch sleeve 32 are advanced, and the cup holder sleeve 33 is redrawn. While performing the cup pressing operation by pressing the bottom wall of the cup-shaped body W1 against the end face of the die 31 (see FIG. 5A), the punch sleeve 32 pushes the cup-shaped body W1 into the through-hole of the redraw die 31. (See FIGS. 5B to 5D).

  At this time, the tip of the punch sleeve 32 pushes the top wall of the convex portion 23 of the cup-shaped body W1, and the convex portion against the uneven inclined portion 32a located at the outer peripheral portion of the tip of the punch sleeve 32. The outer peripheral edge of the top wall at 23, the connecting portion between the top wall and the peripheral wall, and the peripheral wall are deformed so as to be brought into close contact with each other. That is, since the convex portion 23 of the cup-shaped body W1 is formed along the inclined portion 32a of the punch sleeve 32, movement of the cup-shaped body W1 relative to the punch sleeve 32 in the radial direction is restricted. ing.

  By redrawing, a cup-shaped body (not shown) having a smaller diameter than the cup-shaped body W1 is formed. Subsequently, the cup-shaped body is gradually ironed while sequentially passing through a plurality of ironing dies, and the peripheral wall of the cup-shaped body is stretched to extend the peripheral wall, thereby increasing the peripheral wall height and the wall thickness. The bottomed cylindrical can W2 shown in FIG. The can W2 is cold-worked and hardened by squeezing the peripheral wall, and the strength is increased.

  The can W2 that has been ironed is pushed forward by the punch sleeve 32, and the bottom (the portion that becomes the can bottom 4) is pressed against the bottom molding die, so that the bottom is formed into the dome shape described above. Specifically, in this DI step, the can bottom 4 is connected to the dome portion 5 recessed toward the inside of the can W2 along the can axis O direction and the outer peripheral edge portion of the dome portion 5 and along the can axis O direction. An annular convex portion 7 that protrudes toward the outside of W2 and extends along the circumferential direction around the can axis O is formed.

In the DI process, a portion other than the first concave curved surface portion (concave portion) 1 is formed in the annular convex portion 7 shown in FIG. About the 1st concave curved surface part 1, it shape | molds in the bottom reform process mentioned later.
In this DI process, an outer convex curved surface portion (convex curved surface portion) 18 and an outer concave curved surface portion (concave curved surface portion) 19 are formed on the outer peripheral wall 15 of the annular convex portion 7, and the outer convex curved surface portion 18 and the outer convex wall portion 18 are Of the acute and obtuse angles formed between the common tangent CT of the concave curved surface portion 19 and the virtual straight line VL orthogonal to the can axis O, the chime angle θ, which is an acute angle, is 31 to 36 °.

  In the DI process, as shown in FIG. 6, the thickness of the opening end 3 a of the can body 3 in the vertical direction of the can W 2 along the can axis O direction is set to a portion other than the opening end 3 a. It is molded thicker than the thickness. Specifically, with respect to the outer peripheral surface of the can body 3, the opening end portion 3a and other portions are formed to be flush with each other, and with respect to the inner peripheral surface of the can body 3, the opening end portion 3a is formed from other portions. Is molded so as to be arranged radially inside. The shape of the inner peripheral surface of the can body 3 is formed corresponding to the shape of the outer peripheral surface of the punch sleeve 32.

In the example shown in FIG. 6, the opening end 3 a of the can body 3 extends along a can axis O direction from a portion other than the opening end 3 a (portion positioned below the opening end 3 a) of the can body 3. The thickness change portion where the thickness gradually increases toward the outside (upward) of the can W2, and the thickness of the thickness change portion arranged above the thickness change portion, and the thickness is constant along the can axis O direction. And a constant thickness portion. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, in the longitudinal sectional view of FIG. 6, the inner peripheral surface of the opening end 3 a of the can body 3 may be reduced in diameter a plurality of times stepwise as it goes upward. Good.
In the DI process, the opening end 3a of the can body 3 has a spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 that extends upward from a portion other than the opening end 3a (a portion positioned below the opening end 3a). And the flange planned part 25 is shape | molded in this order.

In the illustrated example, among the opening end portion 3a of the can body 3, the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 located inside (downward) the can W2 along the can axis O direction and the can W2 along the can axis O direction. The planned flange portion 25 located on the outer side (upper side) has the same thickness.
The thickness Tf of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 is set to 0.153 to 0.162 mm.

Further, the can body 3 is formed with a thinnest portion (hereinafter abbreviated as the thinnest portion of the can body) 26 located between the open end 3a along the can axis O direction and the can bottom 4. Has been. The thickness Tw of the can body thinnest portion 26 is 0.091 to 0.102 mm.
Further, the difference (Tf−Tw) between the thickness Tf of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 and the thickness Tw of the can body thinnest portion 26 is set to 0.063 mm or less.

The thickness Tb of the can bottom 4 is the same as the thickness of the blank W, and is set to 0.225 to 0.245 mm.
An example of specifications of the can W2 included in this embodiment is shown in Table 1 below. The “empty can mass (metal mass)” shown in Table 1 represents the metal mass of the can W3 after trimming the can W2 described later (mass as a single metal excluding printing and coating). Yes.

As shown in FIG. 4C, the edge of the opening end 3a of the can W2 that has undergone the DI process is formed in an uneven shape (uneven wave shape) that waves up and down as it goes in the circumferential direction. In addition, this uneven | corrugated wave shape is provided from the time of shape | molding the blank W in the cup-shaped body W1.
Of the upper end edge of the concavo-convex wave shape of the opening end portion 3a, a portion (convex portion) that is a peak protruding upward is called an ear. A plurality of ears are formed along the circumferential direction at the open end 3a. These ears are caused by the crystallographic anisotropy of the aluminum alloy.

[Trimming process]
Next, the opening end 3a of the can body 3 of the can W2 is trimmed.
That is, since the opening end 3a of the can W2 formed by the DI processing apparatus has an ear and is uneven in height, by cutting and trimming the opening end 3a of the can W2, As shown in FIG. 4D, the height (upper end position) of the peripheral wall along the direction of the can axis O in the open end 3a of the can body 3 is evenly aligned over the entire circumference.

  By this trimming process, for example, about 0.6 g is removed from the mass of the can W2. For example, in the plate blanking process described above, cutting and removal at the time of trimming is performed by setting in advance the diameter of a portion of the outer periphery of the blank W where the ears are likely to appear in the shape of the blank W in plan view. It is possible to keep the amount smaller than the above 0.6 g. Specifically, for example, the cutting removal amount is more than 0 g and 0.6 g or less.

  Thereby, the can W3 after trimming without the ear | edge at the opening edge part 3a of the can body 3 (ear was cut off) is obtained. The metal mass of the can W3 is 9.8 to 10.8 g. The height of the can W3 in the direction of the can axis O (the height from the lower end (nose portion 13) of the can bottom 4 to the upper end of the open end 3a) is, for example, a 350 ml can as in the present embodiment. Is about 124 mm, and in the case of other 500 ml cans, it is about 168 mm.

[Printing process, painting process]
After cleaning the can W3 and removing the lubricating oil, etc., it is subjected to a surface treatment and dried, followed by outer surface printing and outer surface coating, and then inner surface coating.
Specifically, in the printing process, the outer surface is printed on the can body 3 of the can W3 using printing ink.
Next, in the painting process, after applying the outer surface coating, the inner surface coating is performed. Specifically, for example, a polyester-based paint is used to coat the outer surface of the can body 3 of the can W3, and the can W3 coated with the outer surface is heated and dried in an oven. When drying by heating in the oven, a conveyance pin extending in a substantially horizontal direction is inserted from the opening end 3a of the can body 3 into the inside, and the conveyance pin supports the can W3, It is moved by a drive mechanism including a chain, a motor, and the like. Next, the inner surface of the can body 3 and the can bottom 4 of the can W3 is coated using, for example, an epoxy paint, and the can W3 coated with the inner surface is dried by heating in an oven.

[Necking process]
Next, necking is performed on the open end 3a of the can W3.
The necking process of the present embodiment includes a pre-neck process and a spin flow necking process performed after the pre-neck process. Reference numeral 10 is used for the can after the necking step.

  Specifically, first, in the pre-neck processing, a die (not shown) (punch and die) is fitted inside and outside the opening end 3a of the can body 3, and the spin flow necking process formed on the opening end 3a is performed. The planned portion 24 is gradually reduced in diameter along the direction of the can axis O toward the outside (opening side) of the can 10.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 7A, the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 is formed with a plurality of step portions arranged in the direction of the can axis O. In the example shown in the figure, a total of four step portions are formed in the spin flow necking scheduled processing portion 24, but the number of step portions is not limited to this and may be three or less, or There may be five or more.
Further, in the pre-neck processing, the planned flange portion 25 formed at the open end 3a of the can body 3 is formed into a cylindrical shape having a smaller diameter than the planned spin flow necking processing portion 24, as shown in FIG. Mold.

After the pre-neck processing is performed on the opening end 3a of the can body 3, spin flow necking processing is performed.
Although not shown in particular, the spin flow necking device includes a base pad that sucks and supports the can bottom 4 of the can 10 in which a pre-neck is preliminarily applied to the open end 3a of the can body 3 by die necking, and the base pad. While rotating the can 10 around the can axis O, a slide roll inserted around the opening end 3a of the can 10, an inner roll inserted into the can 10 with a smaller diameter than the slide roll, and outside the can 10 And an external roll that is disposed so as to be capable of reciprocating in the radial direction.

  In the spin flow necking process, the spin flow necking scheduled part 24 in which a plurality of steps are formed is sandwiched and narrowed between a pair of rolls (an internal roll and an external roll) from the inside and the outside of the opening end 3a of the can body 3. Thus, as shown in FIG. 7 (a), the spin flow necking processing portion 24 is gradually reduced in diameter toward the outside (opening side) of the can 10 along the can axis O direction. Molded into part 8.

  Specifically, in a longitudinal sectional view of the can 10 along the direction of the can axis O shown in FIG. 7A, the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 that has been pre-necked and the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 are spin-flowed. The spin flow necking portion 8 formed by necking is formed so as to intersect with each other before and after the spin flow necking.

  More specifically, on the inner side of the can 10 along the can axis O direction from the intersection I of the spin flow necking processing portion 24 and the spin flow necking processing portion 8 (right side in FIG. 7A), the spin flow The spin flow necking processing portion 8 is shaped so as to be expanded with respect to the necking processing scheduled portion 24. Further, on the outer side of the can 10 along the can axis O direction with respect to the intersecting portion I (the left side in FIG. 7A), the spin flow necking processing portion 8 is reduced in diameter relative to the spin flow necking processing scheduled portion 24. To form.

Thereby, in the spin flow necking processing part 8 after processing, there are a linear part passing through the intersection I and a concave curved part located outside the can 10 in the direction of the can axis O than the linear part. It is formed.
In this spin flow necking process, a virtual straight line that passes through the connecting portion C between the linear portion and the concave curved portion and is orthogonal to the can axis O in a longitudinal sectional view of the can 10 shown in FIG. L, the area of the region A surrounded by the spin flow necking planned portion 24 and the spin flow necking processing portion 8 located outside the can 10 along the can axis O direction from the intersecting portion I is 3 mm ² or less.

Further, in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10 shown in FIG. 7A, the area of the region A is set so that the area of the region A is located inside the can 10 along the can axis O direction with respect to the intersecting portion I and the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 and the spin The area is smaller than the area B surrounded by the flow necking portion 8.
Specifically, the ratio of the area A to the area B (area A / area B) is 60% or less, more preferably 55% or less.

Further, in this spin flow necking process, as shown in FIG. 7 (a), the planned flange portion 25 is sandwiched and squeezed between a pair of rolls from the inside and the outside of the open end 3a of the can body 3, as shown in FIG. The diameter is gradually increased toward the outer side of the can 10 along the axis O direction, and the flange portion 9 is formed.
In the spin flow necking process, a process for forming the spin flow necking scheduled part 24 into the spin flow necking processed part 8 and a process for forming the flange planned part 25 into the flange part 9 are performed.

[Bottom reform process]
Next, the bottom reforming process is performed on the can bottom 4 of the can 10.
In this bottom reforming process, for example, bottom reforming (BPR processing) can be performed using a bottom reforming mechanism (can bottom reshaping device) described in US Pat. No. 5,704,241.
Specifically, a bottom reforming process is performed on the inner peripheral wall 14 of the annular convex portion 7 to form a first concave curved surface portion (concave portion) 1 that is recessed outward in the radial direction.

  However, in providing the shape of the can bottom 4 described in the present embodiment, FIG. 6 and FIG. 14, the shape of the outer peripheral edge of the reforming rollers (molding rollers) 26, 230, the amount of overlap in the circumferential direction (circumferential roller molding length) with respect to the inner peripheral wall 14 of the can bottom 4, the can axis It is necessary to set the shape of the inner peripheral wall 14 and the dome portion 5 as expected after forming by appropriately adjusting the roller forming position (stroke length of the reforming roller) in the O direction and the radial direction.

Therefore, although not particularly illustrated, in this embodiment, the curvature radius of the convex curve forming the outer peripheral edge of the roller is set to 0.8 to 1.2 mm in a longitudinal sectional view along the roller axis of the reforming roller. More preferably 1.0 mm.
Moreover, the overlap amount at the time of molding in which the reforming roller is rotated in the circumferential direction with respect to the inner peripheral wall 14 of the can bottom 4 is, for example, 20% (that is, the roller molding length is 1.2 rotations in the circumferential direction in total). . When the overlap amount is 20%, the molding accuracy can be stably secured, and the tool life can be extended by suppressing the molding load on the roller.

[Flanging process]
Next, the flange end 9 is formed by flanging the open end 3a of the can body 3, and the shape can be wound around the can lid.

  Specifically, in the present embodiment, the flange portion 9 is flanged (spin flow flanging) by spin flow molding in which a rotating mold is pressed against the flange portion 9 and expanded radially outward. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the flange portion 9 may be flanged using a die (punch) instead of the spin flow molding.

  In this manner, the can 10 is manufactured and conveyed to the subsequent process of the flanging process. In this post-process, the contents of a can or the like are filled into the can 10, a can lid is wound around the flange portion 9, and the can body is sealed.

According to the manufacturing method of the can 10 and the can 10 according to the present embodiment described above, the mass of the blank W is suppressed to a low value of 9.8 to 11.4 g. Further, the metal mass (mass excluding printing / coating) of the can 10 (corresponding to the can W3 after trimming) manufactured from the blank W is also suppressed to a low value of 9.8 to 10.8 g.
In general, the mass of a conventional blank is 11.8 g or more, and the metal mass of a can manufactured from the blank is 11.2 g or more. That is, according to the present embodiment, a weight reduction of 0.4 to 1.4 g (at least 0.4 g or more) can be realized as compared with a conventional can.

In addition, while the weight of the can 10 is reduced in this way, the thickness of the blank W (corresponding to the thickness Tb of the can bottom 4 of the manufactured can 10) is kept as small as 0.225 to 0.245 mm. Therefore, the thickness of the can body 3 can be secured large.
Specifically, since the thickness of the blank W is 0.225 mm or more, the thickness of the can bottom 4 of the manufactured can 10 is sufficiently secured, and bottom growth and buckling can be suppressed. In addition, when the thickness of the blank W becomes smaller than 0.225 mm, as shown in Table 1, it becomes difficult to maintain the forming accuracy of the spin flow necking process in the necking process.

  Moreover, since the thickness of the blank W is 0.245 mm or less, the can 10 can be reduced in weight reliably. In addition, when the surface area in planar view of a blank is enlarged by the thickness which reduced the thickness of the blank W, the thickness of the can body 3 can be ensured large easily, and it is preferable.

Here, bottom growth and buckling will be described.
As described in the present embodiment, the dome portion 5 and the annular convex portion (rim) 7 are formed on the can bottom 4 of the can 10.
In the bottom growth, the annular convex portion 7 of the can bottom 4 is deformed toward the outside in the radial direction perpendicular to the can axis O while projecting to the outside of the can 10 along the can axis O direction (below the can 10). It is a phenomenon. If bottom growth occurs, the height of the can 10 (the total length in the direction of the can axis O) is not stable, which may cause problems in manufacturing and shipment. Buckling is a phenomenon in which the dome portion 5 of the can bottom 4 is inverted and protrudes outward in the direction of the can axis O. When buckling occurs, the can 10 cannot be shipped as a product.
According to the present embodiment, the thickness Tb of the can bottom 4 is sufficiently secured while reducing the weight of the can 10, and bottom growth and buckling can be suppressed.

Further, in the can body 3, the thickness Tw of the thinnest portion (can body thinnest portion) 26 located between the open end 3a along the can axis O direction and the can bottom 4 is set to 0. The thickness is set to 091 to 0.102 mm, and the strength is sufficiently ensured while the can body 3 is thinned.
Specifically, since the thickness Tw of the can body thinnest portion 26 is 0.091 mm or more, occurrence of pinholes in the can body 3 at the time of manufacture or distribution can be suppressed. Further, as shown in Table 1, the column strength of the can 10 can be ensured to be large, for example, up to 1200N or more. By increasing the column strength in this manner, it is possible to stably ensure the pressure resistance performance of the can 10 in the direction of the can axis O particularly when the can lid is tightened. Moreover, since the thickness Tw of the thinnest portion 26 of the can body is 0.102 mm or less, the can 10 can be reliably reduced in weight.

In addition, the thickness Tf of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 at the opening end 3a of the can body 3 is set to 0.153 to 0.162 mm to ensure a sufficiently large thickness.
Specifically, since the thickness Tf of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 is 0.153 mm or more, when the rotating can 10 is squeezed between a pair of rolls from inside and outside during spin flow necking, It is possible to suppress the flow necking processing scheduled portion 24 (spin flow necking processing portion 8) from being able to withstand the molding load and being deformed into an unexpected shape. Moreover, it can suppress that a can diameter varies. Furthermore, wrinkles can be prevented from occurring at the open end 3a of the can body 3 during the spin flow necking process. Further, since the thickness Tf of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 is 0.162 mm or less, the can 10 can be reliably reduced in weight.

As mentioned above, according to the manufacturing method of the can 10 of this embodiment, when spin-flow necking processing is performed on the opening end 3a of the can body 3 while reducing the weight of the can 10, the can diameter varies or unexpectedly. It is possible to remarkably suppress the deformation to the shape or the generation of wrinkles, and to stably manufacture the high-quality can 10.
Moreover, according to the can 10 of this embodiment, the quality (processing precision) of a product can be improved stably, achieving weight reduction.

In addition, in this embodiment, although the structure about 350 ml can and its effect were demonstrated, when it is a 500 ml can, for example, it is preferable to set it as the following structure. Thereby, the same effect as this embodiment mentioned above can be acquired.
-Mass of blank W: 14.0-14.5g
・ Thickness of blank W (thickness Tb of can bottom 4): 0.257 to 0.280 mm
・ Thickness Tw of can body thinnest portion 26: 0.091 to 0.102 mm
-Thickness Tf of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24: 0.153 to 0.162 mm

  In the present embodiment, the difference (Tf−Tw) between the thickness Tf of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 and the thickness Tw of the can body thinnest portion 26 is set to 0.063 mm or less. During processing, the load (maximum value) acting on the can body 3 can be kept small, and a situation in which the can body 3 is twisted and deformed can be prevented.

  Specifically, at the time of spin flow necking, a pair of rolls comes into contact with the rotating can 10 from the inside and the outside, and a load (resistance) against the rotational force acts, but the difference (Tf−Tw) is 0.063 mm. By being below, the load with respect to rotational force can be disperse | distributed and it can suppress that a big stress is locally applied. Therefore, even if the can body 3 is thinned as described above, it is possible to suppress torsional deformation during the spin flow necking process.

  Further, in the present embodiment, in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10 along the can axis O direction, the common tangent CT of the outer convex curved surface portion 18 and the outer concave curved surface portion 19 in the outer peripheral wall 15 of the annular convex portion 7 and the can shaft O Since the chime angle θ formed between the orthogonal virtual lines VL is 31 to 36 °, the column strength of the can 10 can be increased while ensuring a large printing area of the can body 3.

  Specifically, since the chime angle θ is 31 ° or more, the inclination of the outer peripheral wall 15 of the annular convex portion 7 can be appropriately raised without being excessively laid, and the column strength of the can 10 can be ensured to be large. Further, since the chime angle θ is 36 ° or less, the position of the edge (upper end of the outer convex curved surface portion 18) connected to the can body 3 in the outer peripheral wall 15 of the annular convex portion 7 is the protruding end of the annular convex portion 7. The printing area of the can body 3 can be secured large by suppressing the separation from the (nose portion 13 of the can bottom 4) too much in the can axis O direction.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, as a material of the can 10, mass% is Si: 0.1-0.5%, Fe: 0.3-0.7%, Cu: 0.05-0.5%, Mn : 0.5 to 1.5%, Mg: 0.4 to 2.0%, Cr: 0 to 0.1%, Zn: 0 to 0.5%, Ti: 0 to 0.15% Since the balance is made of an aluminum alloy made of aluminum containing inevitable impurities, various performances of the can 10 (pinhole resistance, column strength, dimensional stability of the can diameter, wrinkle generation inhibiting performance, etc.) can be improved. it can.

Moreover, in this embodiment, since the aluminum alloy whose afterbaking proof stress is 266-304 N / mm < ² > is used as a board | plate material which punches the blank W, there exist the following effects.
That is, as described above, when the after-baking strength of the plate material is 266 N / mm ² or more, the pressure resistance (bulge strength) of the can 10 and the pinhole resistance of the can body 3 can be sufficiently secured. In addition, since the after baking yield strength is 304 N / mm ² or less, the hardness of the plate material can be suppressed to a moderately low level and flexibility can be imparted, and the occurrence of wrinkles at the open end 3 a of the can body 3 can be significantly suppressed. it can.

Moreover, in the manufacturing method of the can 10 of this embodiment, since the convex part 23 is formed in the bottom wall of the cup-shaped body W1 shape | molded through the cupping process, in the following DI process, the front-end | tip part of the punch sleeve 32 is formed. Drawing and ironing is performed while restraining the convex portion 23.
That is, since the convex portion 23 is formed, the relative position between the punch sleeve 32 and the cup-shaped body W1 is stabilized, and it becomes difficult to generate a non-restraining region, so that the generation of wrinkles can be remarkably suppressed. A high-quality can 10 having an excellent appearance can be produced.

Moreover, since the height of the cup-axis direction in the convex part 23 of the cup-shaped body W1 is set to 5.5 to 6.5 mm, the following effects are exhibited.
That is, in this case, since the height of the convex portion 23 is secured as large as 5.5 mm or more, unlike the present embodiment, for example, the height of the convex portion 23 is too low and the wrinkles generated in the can bottom 4 are sufficient. According to the present embodiment, it is possible to stably avoid a problem that cannot be suppressed to a high level. Moreover, since the height of the convex part 23 is suppressed to 6.5 mm or less, unlike the present embodiment, for example, when the height of the convex part 23 is too high and the cup-shaped body W1 is produced, the annular convex part 7 can be stably avoided according to the present embodiment, in which the thickness of the portion corresponding to the outer peripheral wall 15 of 7 is reduced and the column strength of the can 10 cannot be sufficiently secured.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, in the longitudinal cross-sectional view of the cup-shaped body W1, the curvature radius of the connection part of the top wall of the convex part 23 and a peripheral wall and its peripheral length are the outer peripheral wall 15 in the can bottom 4 of the can 10 manufactured. Therefore, the material can be prevented from being compressed in the outer peripheral wall 15 of the can bottom 4 during DI processing. Therefore, the generation of wrinkles due to the compression of the material can be effectively suppressed.

  Further, in the method of manufacturing the can 10 according to the present embodiment, when the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 that has been pre-necked in the necking step is spin flow necked to form the spin flow necking processed portion 8, FIG. ), The shape of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 and the shape of the spin flow necking processed portion 8 are formed so as to intersect each other before and after the spin flow necking.

  Specifically, in the longitudinal cross-sectional view of the can 10, the inner side of the can 10 along the can axis O direction (of the can 10) rather than the intersection I between the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 and the spin flow necking processing portion 8. In the lower part, the spin flow necking processing portion 8 is shaped so as to be expanded in diameter relative to the spin flow necking processing scheduled portion 24, and the outer side of the can 10 along the can axis O direction (of the can 10). In the upper part, the spin flow necking processing portion 8 is shaped so as to be reduced in diameter relative to the spin flow necking processing scheduled portion 24.

Here, since the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 is “expanded” inside the can 10 along the can axis O direction from the intersection I, the spin flow necking processed portion 8 is formed. The flow necking portion 8 is less likely to wrinkle.
On the other hand, since the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 is “reduced” to form the spin flow necking portion 8 outside the can 10 along the can axis O direction with respect to the intersecting portion I, the spin flow necking portion 8 is formed. It is conceivable that wrinkles are likely to occur in the necking portion 8.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, in a longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, a linear portion included in the spin flow necking processing portion 8 and a concave curved portion located outside the can 10 in the can axis O direction with respect to the linear portion. A virtual straight line L passing through the connecting portion C and orthogonal to the can axis O, a spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 and a spin flow necking processing portion located outside the can 10 along the can axis O direction with respect to the intersection I. The area of a region A (region having a substantially triangular shape) A surrounded by 8 is suppressed to 3 mm ² or less.

  Thereby, outside the can 10 along the can axis O direction with respect to the intersecting portion I, the processing amount when the spin flow necking processing portion 8 is formed by reducing the diameter of the spin flow necking scheduled portion 24 (reducing diameter processing). Volume to be reduced). As a result, the generation of wrinkles can be remarkably suppressed.

Here, in order to confirm the effect of the above-described configuration of the present embodiment, according to the present embodiment in which the area of the region A is 3 mm ² or less in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10 shown in FIG. Using the can 10 of the example and the can of the reference example in which the area of the region A is larger than 3 mm ^{2 in} the longitudinal sectional view of the can shown in FIG. A confirmation test was performed to compare the number of generated cans. In the test, 240 cans were used for both the example and the reference example.
The test results are shown in Table 2 below. In Table 2, the region A that is compressed (reduced in diameter) during spin flow molding is referred to as a “compressed portion”, and the region B that is pulled (expanded) is referred to as a “tensile portion”.

  From the test results in Table 2, it was confirmed that according to the example of the present embodiment, the number of cans generated in wrinkles was suppressed to 0, and that there was a particularly remarkable effect in suppressing wrinkles during spin flow necking. It was.

  As described above, according to this embodiment, when spin flow necking is performed on the opening end 3a of the can body 3, wrinkles are remarkably suppressed, and the high-quality can 10 is stably manufactured. can do.

Further, in the present embodiment, a bottom reforming process is provided as a subsequent process of the necking process, and in this bottom reforming process, a first concave curved surface portion (concave portion) that is recessed radially outward in the inner peripheral wall 14 of the annular convex portion 7. 1 is molded. Thereby, the pressure resistance strength (bulge strength) of the can 10 can be remarkably increased, and bottom growth and buckling can be effectively suppressed. Specifically, as shown in Table 1, the can 10 in which the recess 1 is formed on the can bottom 4 by performing the bottom reforming process has a bulge strength increased to 650 kPa or more.
Moreover, since the pressure strength is increased in this way, the material selection range (degree of freedom of selection) of the can 10 is expanded.

  Further, a taper that connects the first concave curved surface portion 1 of the annular convex portion 7 and the second concave curved surface portion 2 of the dome portion 5 to the outer peripheral edge portion of the dome portion 5 connected to the inner peripheral wall 14 of the annular convex portion 7. A portion 17 is formed, and the tapered portion 17 has a linear shape in contact with the first and second concave curved surface portions 1 and 2 in a longitudinal sectional view of the can 10 shown in FIG. , A common tangent of the second concave curved surface portions 1 and 2). Such a special configuration provides the following remarkable effects.

That is, the first and second concave curved surface portions 1 and 2 connected to both ends of the tapered portion 17 are formed to be bent. Specifically, in the longitudinal sectional view shown in FIG. Since the curvature radii of the first and second concave curved surface portions 1 and 2 connected to the taper portion 17 become small (the bending condition becomes tight), for these first and second concave curved surface portions 1 and 2, Stress tends to concentrate. That is, since a plurality of locations where stress is concentrated can be secured stably, the strength of the can bottom 4 is improved and deformation is suppressed. That is, when the internal pressure of the can 10 is increased, the pressure strength of the can 10 is increased by dispersing the stress in the first and second concave curved surface portions (bent portions) 1 and 2.
Thereby, bottom growth and buckling can be effectively suppressed.

  More specifically, unlike the present embodiment, for example, in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the outer peripheral edge portion of the dome portion 5 is formed in a concave curve shape, and this outer peripheral edge portion is the first concave curved surface of the inner peripheral wall 14. Compared to a configuration (not shown) directly connected to the unit 1, according to the configuration of the present embodiment, as a result of the strength analysis by the finite element method, it was confirmed that the compressive strength can be improved by 2% or more.

  Further, the second concave curved surface portion 2 is disposed adjacent to the radially inner side of the outer peripheral edge portion (tapered portion 17) of the dome portion 5, and the curvature of the second concave curved surface portion 2 in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10. Since the radius R <b> 2 is smaller than the radius of curvature of the dome top 16, the deformation of the can bottom 4 can be effectively suppressed in the second concave curved surface portion 2 near the annular convex portion 7 in the dome portion 5. it can. Therefore, the above-described effect becomes more remarkable.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to sufficiently increase the strength of the can bottom 4 while reducing the weight of the can and reducing the thickness of the can 10. Thereby, productivity of can 10 can be raised stably and quality can be maintained satisfactorily.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, since the curvature radius R1 of the 1st concave curved surface part 1 in the outer surface of the said can 10 is 0.8-1.2 mm by the longitudinal cross-sectional view of the can 10, the inner peripheral wall of the cyclic | annular convex part 7 is. By forming the first concave curved surface portion 1 by performing a bottom reforming process on No. 14, the following effects can be further achieved while the effects of suppressing the above-mentioned bottom growth and buckling can be obtained.

That is, in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the radius of curvature R1 of the first concave curved surface portion 1 on the outer surface of the can 10 is 0.8 mm or more, so that the first surface treatment layer of the can 10 is not destroyed. One concave curved surface portion 1 can be formed. That is, the performance of the surface treatment layer can be maintained satisfactorily, and the first concave curved surface portion 1 can be stably formed without impairing the beauty of the can bottom 4.
In addition, since the radius of curvature R1 of the first concave curved surface portion 1 on the outer surface of the can 10 is 1.2 mm or less in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the spring back after molding is suppressed, and the first concave is accurately obtained. The curved surface portion 1 can be formed. Specifically, since the spring back is suppressed, the desired shape of the first concave curved surface portion 1 can be stably imparted, and the pressure resistance strength can be stably increased.

Moreover, in this embodiment, since the curvature radius R2 of the 2nd concave curved surface part 2 in the outer surface of the said can 10 is 3.0-5.0 mm by the longitudinal cross-sectional view of the can 10, there exist the following effects.
That is, in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the curvature radius R2 of the second concave curved surface portion 2 on the outer surface of the can 10 is 3.0 mm or more, so that the plate thickness of the can bottom 4 is the second concave curved surface portion 2. It is possible to prevent the thickness from being excessively reduced and to stably obtain the desired pressure resistance performance.
In addition, since the curvature radius R2 of the second concave curved surface portion 2 on the outer surface of the can 10 is 5.0 mm or less in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the second concave curved surface portion 2 is appropriately bent, Stress can be easily concentrated on the second concave curved surface portion 2. That is, the stress concentration can be stably set at a plurality of locations of the first and second concave curved surface portions 1 and 2 (stress can be reliably distributed to a plurality of locations), so that the pressure resistance strength of the can 10 is stabilized. Can be enhanced.

Further, in the present embodiment, in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the center of the radius of curvature R1 of the first concave curved surface portion 1 and the outer edge of the can 10 along the direction of the can axis O in the annular convex portion 7 (the nose portion 13). ), The distance h in the can axis O direction is 2.0 to 2.8 mm.
That is, in this case, it is possible to improve processability when the first concave curved surface portion 1 is bottom-reformed on the inner peripheral wall 14 of the annular convex portion 7, to ensure molding accuracy, and to stably increase the pressure strength. . Further, the bottom growth amount (deformation amount) can be effectively suppressed.

Specifically, since the distance h is 2.0 mm or more, when forming the first concave curved surface portion 1 on the inner peripheral wall 14 of the annular convex portion 7, a forming roller of a bottom reforming mechanism (can bottom re-forming device). Can be satisfactorily maintained in contact with the inner peripheral wall 14, and the bottom reforming process can be stably performed. Thereby, the desired shape of the first concave curved surface portion 1 can be stably imparted, and the pressure strength can be stably increased.
Further, since the distance h is 2.8 mm or less, the portion of the annular convex portion 7 located below the first concave curved surface portion 1 (outside of the can 10 along the can axis O direction) is in the can axis O direction. Thus, the bottom growth amount can be reliably suppressed. In addition, it is preferable that the distance h is 2.4 mm or less because the bottom growth amount can be more reliably suppressed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the outermost surface of the can 10 (the deepest portion) positioned on the outermost side in the radial direction in the first concave curved surface portion 1 and the first in the annular convex portion 7. The distance d in the radial direction between the portion located at the innermost side in the radial direction (the topmost portion) of the portion located below the concave surface portion 1 (outside of the can 10 along the can axis O direction) is , 0.8 to 1.4 mm, the following effects are achieved.

That is, in the longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the distance d is 0.8 mm or more, so the first concave curved surface portion 1 can be formed with a sufficient depth on the inner peripheral wall 14 of the annular convex portion 7, The desired pressure strength can be stably obtained.
In addition, since the distance d is 1.4 mm or less in a longitudinal sectional view of the can 10, the first concave curved surface portion 1 in the annular convex portion 7, and below the first concave curved surface portion 1 (in the direction of the can axis O) In the portion (second convex curved surface portion 12) located on the outer side of the can 10 along the can, the plate thickness of the can bottom 4 is prevented from being excessively reduced or broken.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the chime angle θ of the can bottom 4 is set to 31 to 36 °, but is not limited thereto.
Moreover, the composition of the aluminum alloy used as the material of the can 10 is not limited to that described in the above embodiment.

Moreover, the after-baking proof strength of the board | plate material which punches the blank W is not limited to the numerical range (266-304 N / mm < ² >) demonstrated in the above-mentioned embodiment.
Moreover, although the manufacturing method of the can 10 was provided with the bottom reform process, when the bulge intensity | strength of the can 10 can fully be ensured, without forming the recessed part 1, you may skip a bottom reform process.
In the spin flow necking process of the necking step, the area A is set to 3 mm ² or less, but the present invention is not limited to this.
