Abrégé

A transferring device for transferring and/or receiving cans, can blanks, or other containers out of or into a transferring or respectively receiving axis (U) which extends at an angle to a transport path (T), with multiple suction elements (3), which can be moved along the transport path (T) during transfer, each of which has at least one suction opening (4), and which can be connected to a negative pressure source, in order to retain the cans, can blanks, or other containers by means of suction during transport along the transport path (T), wherein the suction elements (3) are designed and/or arranged in a movable manner between a retracted and an extended position at least along some sections of the transferring and/or receiving axis (U), characterized in that the suction elements (3) are designed and arranged so as to be reversibly deformable during the movement along the transferring and/or receiving axis (U) such that the movement of the suction openings (4) together with the suctioned cans, can blanks or other containers is able to be brought about along the transferring and/or receiving axis (4), exclusively on the basis of the reversible deformation of the suction elements (3), said deformation being caused by the suction effect of the negative pressure source (5), and wherein a transfer path able to be overcome exclusively by deformation of the suction elements (3), for the cans, can blanks or other containers along the transferring and/or receiving axis (4) is at least 1 mm.

Abrégé

A necking machine (1) having a plurality of processing stations on a rotating tool carrier (7). The motion of the tool carrier (7) with respect to the work pieces is carried out by a crankshaft (25). This is carried out by a non-constant gear. The gear includes two non-round gearwheels (21, 23) that improve a rotational-speed profile of the crankshaft (25) and thus a velocity profile, in particular, in an area of the dead center.

Abrégé

A process and apparatus to make an edge or a collar featuring a complex structure on extruded, deep-drawn and deep-drawn/wire-drawn metal rough pieces with which bottles for the beverage and food sector or for technical use are particularly obtained, suitable for the application of a closing cap and fit to use on a tapering machine. The process includes a starting operating stage to deform an upper end portion of a metal holder by turning it outwardly so as to obtain an edge or a collar with a basically circular section, one or more intermediate operating stages to deform the edge or collar by squeezing in the radial direction and stretching towards the bottom of the metal holder, a final operating deformation stage to obtain an edge or collar with a complex ovoidal profile for the application of at least two caps of different types.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a device for the extrusion of round blanks (1), comprising an extrusion sleeve (2) and a die (3), by means of which the round blanks (1) can be pressed in the extrusion sleeve (2), as well as a feeding device (4, 5, 6) by means of which the round blanks (1) can be transported between the die (3) and the extrusion sleeve (2), wherein the feeding device (4, 5, 6) comprises a guide rail (4) in which the round blanks (1) are arranged one behind the other and at the lower end thereof means (5, 6) are arranged for separating the round blanks (1). The invention is characterized in that the separating means (5, 6) comprise a separating cam (5) that is rotatable about a rotating axis (5a) in a direction of rotation (5b), the outer surface of said separating cam comprising at least one convex region (5c), whose distance to the rotating axis (5a) decreases in the rotating direction (5b) of the cam (5), and at least one concave region (5d), whose curvature radius is adapted to the diameter of the round blanks (1).

Abrégé

A process for the shaping of the side surface of a metal body or container (10) such as an aerosol or a beverage bottle for food or technical use, obtained by progressive deformation operating steps of its side surface carried out in sequence on a machine having an intermittent rotating table, an opposite alternate translatory motion plate, a loading drum, gripping pliers of the bodies, deformation and possibly embossing and/or debossing tools and an unloading drum of the same bodies, the process including the steps: feeding the bodies (10) on the machine provided with an intermittent rotating table and of an opposite translatory motion plate; gripping the bodies along a limited area (12) between 10.0 and 35.0 mm, of their side surface from the bottom with a fixed or an axially rotating gripping plier; carrying out a broad deformation (18) on the side surface of the bodies (10) with tools working from the inner and/or outer part of the same bodies.
