Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a lifter plate for raising and lowering a can body for raising and lowering the can body when the can body mouth edge portion is curled up.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a seamer used to form an outer winding curb on the rim portion of a can body of a top-cut can is used in combination with a seamer used to fasten an ordinary top plate around the can body. .

That is, as shown in FIG. 6 (a), the lifter plate 45 used in a normal seamer is a flat plate body.
The locking means of the can body was not attached, but the can body was moved horizontally, placed on the lifter plate 45, and the can body was moved up and down.

Further, the seaming chuck 46 used in the conventional seamer has a groove 49 into which the flange 48 of the seaming roll 47 can be fitted, and the seaming roll 47 has the flange 48 and the flange 48. A winding tightening groove 50 having an arcuate cross section was formed below 48 (FIG. 6A). Then, the operation places the can body 5 on the lifter plate 45 and raises the lifter plate 45 to the position of the seaming chuck 46. The seaming chuck 46 is placed on the inner side of the upper edge of the can body 5, the seaming roll 47 is rotated in a horizontal plane, and the collar 48 of the seaming roll 47 is moved along the groove 49 of the seaming chuck while gradually narrowing the radius of rotation. The can body mouth edge 6a into the winding groove 5 of the seaming roll 47.
While pressing with 0, the seaming roll 47 is rotated along the groove of the seaming chuck 46 to fasten the first winding and then the second seaming roll 27a to fasten the second winding (FIG. 6 (b)).
The outer winding curb was formed at the mouth edge of the can body.

[0005]

When a normal top plate is wound around a can body, the knock-out pad 51 and the lifter plate 45, which are moved up and down at the center of the seaming chuck, sandwich the top plate and the can body and move up and down. In addition, since the position of the upper edge of the can body is determined by the top plate fitted to the seaming chuck, the vertical position of the can body when tightening can be accurately determined with respect to the position of the seaming chuck. . But,
In the heaven-cutting can because there is nothing to hold the upper edge of the can body because there is no top plate, the position of the upper edge of the can body 5 (heaven switching morbidity) could not be restricted. Furthermore, when changing from seaming of the normal of the top plate to the edge winding of the top cutting cans, the seaming chuck 4 6 Noboru <br/> drop-off, the vertical position of the upper edge of the can body 5 Had set.

Therefore, in the seaming chuck 46, the upper edge of the mouth edge portion 52 of the can body 5 may be located above the lower edge of the groove 49 of the seaming chuck 46. When the flange 48 of the seaming roll 47 is fitted into the groove 49, the can body mouth edge portion 52 is inserted into the groove 4
There was a risk of being caught inside 9 (Fig. 6 (c)). Furthermore,
When the rim portion 52 of the can body 5 is wound into the groove 49, the knockout pad 51 cannot operate because there is no top plate, and only the lifter plate 45 descends so that the rim portion 6a is attached to the seaming chuck 46. It will be left in the locked state. Therefore, the conventional lifter plate 4
In No. 5, it was impossible to remove the rim 6a of the can body 5 from the groove 49 of the seaming roll 47. Even if the mouth edge portion 6a of the can body 5 is not wound in the groove 49, the can body 5 is fitted to the seaming chuck 46 at the time of the edge winding, so that the outer diameter of the seaming chuck 46 and the inner diameter of the can body 5 are different from each other. Are as close to each other in size as possible (ie, can body 5
Can be fitted into the seaming chuck 46), the winding can be performed more accurately without deforming the can body. In this case, again, the seaming chuck 46
The inner edge of the can body 5 is locked, and the conventional lifter plate 45 has no locking means for locking the can body 5, so that the can body 5 cannot drop only by its own weight, and only the lifter plate 45 descends. The body 5 has a seaming chuck 46 and a rim 6
There is a problem that a is left in a locked state.

[0007]
