A first end region of the closure piece is connected to the surrounding lid face via a pivot bearing. The can lid also comprises a tear-open element which acts on a second end region, opposite the pivot bearing, of the closure piece, so that it is possible to pivot the closure piece out of the plane defined by the opening by pulling on the tear-open element. The micro-gap is interrupted between the first end region and the second end region by at least one holding piece by which the closure piece and the surrounding lid face are integrally bonded to one another.
B65D 17/28 - Réceptacles rigides ou semi-rigides spécialement conçus pour être ouverts par coupage ou perçage, ou en perçant ou en déchirant des éléments ou des parties frangibles le long de lignes ou à partir de points de moindre résistance
A can end comprises a metallic end surface having a first flat side and a second flat side facing away from the first flat side, wherein an opening is formed in the end surface, which opening is bounded by a closed margin of the end surface and closed by a closure piece that is separated from the surrounding end surface by a microgap extending along the margin of the end surface, wherein a first end region of the closure piece is connected to the surrounding end surface via a pivot bearing; and a tear-open member that is arranged at the first flat side and that engages at a second end region of the closure piece, said second end region being opposite the pivot bearing, so that a pivoting of the closure piece is made possible by pulling at the tear-open member, wherein the microgap is interrupted between the first end region and the second end region by at least one holding web. A pressure relief wave is embossed into the end surface and extends at least partly around the opening.

An apparatus for manufacturing a can end, which has a can end part composed of sheet metal and at least one plastic part joined to the can end part, comprises two pressing tools that can be brought together and that form a press for pressing together the can end part and the plastic part; and an inductor for supplying an alternating electromagnetic field into the region of the press to inductively heat the can end part and thereby to join the can end part to the pressed-on plastic part. A fluid passage is formed in at least one of the pressing tools, with a temperature control apparatus being provided that is configured to convey a temperature control fluid through the fluid passage in order to stabilize the temperature of the press.
