2. Description of the Related Art A two-piece can, which is widely used as a can for beverage cans, is generally provided with a desired pattern or character on its body by offset printing. However, with the diversification of designs, a gravure-printed can body with a more beautiful printed surface is required, and as a means for overcoming the drawbacks of a two-piece can body, which is difficult to apply gravure printing directly in the manufacturing process. Various methods have been proposed to obtain a can body having a more beautiful printed surface by sticking a thermoplastic synthetic resin film (hereinafter, referred to as a film label) such as a polyester film, which has been gravure-printed in advance, to a molded can body. (Eg, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2597020,

[0003] In the above-mentioned conventional method for manufacturing a film label pasting can body, a can body formed into a bottomed cylindrical shape is mounted on a revolving mandrel, and a thermosetting adhesive is applied to a heated can body. The applied printed film label is attached by an attaching roll. Since the can body to which the film is adhered is generally washed and dried after the forming process, and is also washed before filling the contents, the outer peripheral surface is not particularly washed immediately before the film is adhered. Therefore, in a conventional production line for a film label pasting can body, an outer peripheral surface cleaning device for the can body is not used, and such an apparatus is not known. On the other hand, in a can-making line, a filling line, and the like, a method of cleaning an outer surface of a container or the like with a cleaning liquid is generally employed.

There is a case where fine dust or the like adheres to the surface of the can body before the film is adhered. In such a case, the dust is placed under the film label adhered to the surface of the can body. Is confined, and the appearance and the adhesiveness are impaired. Therefore, in order to obtain a more beautiful appearance, it is necessary to remove dust and the like adhering to the outer peripheral surface of the can body immediately before attaching the film label. However, cleaning with a cleaning liquid, which is a conventional general cleaning method, is troublesome in handling the cleaning liquid, and requires a drying apparatus for drying after cleaning, which increases the size of the apparatus and requires time for cleaning and drying. There is a problem that speeding up is hindered.

The apparatus for cleaning the outer surface of a cylindrical article according to the present embodiment is configured as described above. The can body which is gravity-supplied to the star wheel 2 while being laid down from the chute 1 is supplied from the star wheel 2 to the transport turret 10, It is rotatably sucked and held in the pocket 33 and transported to the delivery position to the mandrel roll. In the meantime, in the section where the cleaning means 11 is disposed, the endless adhesive belt 15 comes into contact with the surface of the can body held in the pocket 12, so that the can body rotates (rotates) in the pocket.
Orbiting while revolving. Therefore, the can body moves while rolling on the surface of the adhesive belt, and the body of the can body is at least one.
By rolling contact more than the rotation, dust and fine plastic powder adhering to the entire outer peripheral surface of the body are removed from the surface of the can body by adhering to the adhesive belt and transferring. Since the removal is performed by the adhesive, fine dust can be easily and reliably removed.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various design changes can be made within the scope of the technical idea. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the invention is applied to a film label sticking line to a can is described.However, the invention is not limited to the can and can be applied before a labeling step to other cylindrical containers such as a plastic bottle and a glass bottle, Further, the present invention can be applied as a dust removing device for the outer peripheral surface of other cylindrical articles. Also, even in a normal printing can, if dust adheres to the outer surface of the can before printing, productivity and appearance are greatly impaired. In particular, when dust is transferred to the blanket of a printing press, defective cans are continuously produced for the first time. Therefore, the present invention can also be applied to cleaning of the outer peripheral surface of such a normal printing can before printing.

Further, the transport of the cylindrical body is not limited to the sideways shape,
The transfer in the upright state is also possible. Further, the conveying means of the cylindrical article is not limited to the conveying turret, and a guide is provided on the side facing the adhesive belt along the conveying path of the conveyor traveling on a straight or curved track, and the container is sandwiched between the guide and the adhesive belt. It is also possible to adopt a means in which the cylindrical body is conveyed while being in rolling contact with the adhesive belt by conveying in a state. The endless adhesive belt is preferably used as the dust removing belt, but the cassette-type adhesive belt wound up and stored in a roll is fed out along the moving path of the cylindrical article so that the cylindrical article comes into rolling contact. It is also possible. In that case, the adhesive belt may be disposed of in a single use, or may be reciprocated and used repeatedly. When used repeatedly by reciprocating, by arranging the cleaning means and the drying means near the other take-up reel,
Activates the adhesiveness of the used adhesive belt to enable repeated use.
