Definitions

  • Lids and closures for containers are widely used and produced in great numbers, e.g. for containers for food or chemicals.
  • the lids are often produced by punching a blank of sheet metal in a punching tool.
  • the resulting processed blank comprises a substantially flat first surface and a skirt portion extending at substantially right angles therefrom.
  • the skirt portion normally has an uneven edge due to earring in the punching process.
  • the edge of the skirt portion is relatively sharp and hence must be processed to avoid injury to persons using or handling the lid. It is custom to trim the depending ears of the edge of the skirt portion to provide a skirt portion having an even length, to prepare the skirt portion for a subsequent curling step to produce a curled edge of the skirt.
  • the curled edge provides a smooth and safe edge for any user of the lid.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,749,258 discloses a method and a tool for forming a container body from blanks, preferably hexagonal shaped blanks.
  • the tooling comprises a die for forming a blank into a container body.
  • the die enables the use of a blank of noncircular geometric shape by redistributing metal to produce an end product without excessive earring.
  • the blank is drawn into a cup shape, and the earring provided by the drawing process is subsequently trimmed off in order to obtain an even edge encircling the opening of the container. Said even edge may then be die formed or roll formed.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,862,722 discloses a method of forming a container end from a blank of material wherein the earring is minimised by forming the container from a blank that is multi-sided in configuration rather than circular.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,005,665 discloses a method for preparing a steel blank which is less susceptible to ear occurrence during press-working into a pressed article.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,290,447 discloses a tool station for forming a can end by punching, forming and curling the can end with a single movement of the punch.
  • the normally circular blank is processed into a normally circular lid pre-form having a skirt portion with slightly uneven height due to earring. Accordingly the skirt portion normally is trimmed to provide a skirt portion of even height, and subsequently the lower edge of the skirt portion is processed to provide a curled edge.
  • the step of trimming the edge can be avoided by taking a totally different approach, namely by using the earring as a part of the final shaped container or lid
  • the present invention relates to a method of forming a metal sheet blank, the method comprising the steps of deep-drawing the sheet blank so as to produce a deep-drawn pre-form having a base portion and a skirt portion extending therefrom, the height of said skirt portion varying around the perimeter of the pre-form so as to provide a skirt having a curved edge course, and subsequently processing said curved edge to obtain a curled or bent edge having a curved course.
  • the skirt portion preferably extends substantially at right angles from the base portion, but it may extend in angles below or above 90 degrees.
  • the blank may be provided in any convenient way, such as by laser cutting, according to an embodiment, however, the method comprises an initial step of punching the blank into a circular or non-circular shape from a basic metal sheet.
  • the method comprises an initial step of punching the blank into a circular or non-circular shape from a basic metal sheet.
  • the blank have a circular shape, the deep-drawn pre-form will still have a skirt portion having earrings (a curved edge course), because of directional flow of metal in the process of drawing the blank.
  • the individual process steps may be provided as separate, temporally and spatially remote processes, according to an embodiment, however, the process steps are performed in one sequence of operations, i.e. sequentially punching the blank, deep-drawing the blank to a pre-form, and curling the curved edge of the pre-form in one go, which will be appreciated by the skilled person as an effective and convenient way of providing deep-drawn pre-forms from a basic metal sheet.
  • the method comprises the steps of:
  • the method preferably comprises the step of pressing said pre-form towards the punch before the step of processing, said step of pressing may be provided by mechanical or hydraulic or pneumatic means, such as a further punch or piston(s) provided within the cavity of the second tool part.
  • Said further punch or piston(s) preferably presses the base portion of the pre-form towards said punch of the first tool in order to keep the pre-form in position while moving first tool part towards the pre-form for abutment of the curved edge of the pre-form with the curling portion.
  • the first tool part may be maintained in its position while moving the pre-form towards the first tool part for abutment of the curved edge of the pre-form with the curling portion.
  • Punching/cutting means may be provided between the first and second tool part, preferably on the first and/or second tool part, and the step of punching may comprise moving the first tool part towards the second tool part for cutting out said sheet blank from a sheet of metal.
  • the present invention relates to tool comprising a first tool part having a curling portion, said curling portion forming a three-dimensional path in the tool to enable formation of a curled edge on a metal pre-form having a curved edge course.
  • a tool is provided which can process a pre-form having a curved edge course directly in order to obtain a curled curved edge course of the pre-form.
  • the pre-form is formed from a metal sheet blank that may be provided in any convenient way, such as by cutting or by means of a laser, for example in an independent tool.
  • the tool further comprises a cutting edge adapted to provide/cut a sheet blank having a circular or non-circular shape.

  • the sheet blank may be machined in a separate tool to produce the pre-form, according to an embodiment, however, the tool further comprises a punch movable in an opening arranged in the first tool part, whereby the punch is movable to extend beyond a plane of the first tool part.
  • the tool further comprises a second tool part having a die cavity.
  • the second tool part is oppositely arranged in relation to said first tool, and the die cavity is adapted to receive said punch upon moving said second tool part in relation to said punch so as to allow deep-drawing of a metal sheet blank, provided between the first and second tool, into said metal pre-form.
  • the cutting edge may be provided on the first or second tool so as to cut out said sheet blank upon moving said first and second tool towards each other.
  • the cutting edge may be provided on a third tool arranged adjacent to said first and/or second tool, so as to cut out said blank upon moving said first or second tool towards said third tool.
  • the blank may be cut and drawn and/or having an edge curled in the same tool, and hence it is not required to move the blank to another tool.
  • the tool further comprises a second punch or piston(s) moveable to press the pre-form towards the first tool part or to keep the pre-form in position while pressing the first tool part towards the pre-form for abutment of the curved edge of the metal pre-form with the curling portion to provide a curled curved edge.
  • the invention relates to an apparatus for deep-drawing a metal sheet blank, said apparatus comprising a female tool part for receiving a male tool part when deep-drawing said metal sheet blank to produce a pre-form having a base portion and a skirt portion extending at substantially right angles therefrom, the height of said skirt portion varying around the perimeter of the pre-form so as to provide a skirt having a curved edge course, said apparatus further comprising a curling tool for curling said curved edge.

  • the curling tool may be a kind of roller to be pressed against the curved edge and travel around the perimeter of the skirt, according to an embodiment, however, the curling tool comprises a curling portion forming a three-dimensional path in a tool part to enable formation of a curled edge on a metal pre-form having a curved edge course.
  • a simple, low-cost curling tool is provided which allows for a process of producing e.g. lids or containers with a minimum waste of material, as the step of trimming off the uneven edge is avoided, and which allows for a much less time consuming and thus a cheaper process.
  • the apparatus may further comprise cutting means for cutting the sheet blank into a non-circular shape prior to deep-drawing.
