BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a metal container lid, and more particularly to an easy-open can lid which can easily open a part or almost the entire surface of a can lid manually, and can be used for a wide range of beverage cans, general food cans and the like. Used for purposes.

2. Description of the Related Art An easy-opening can lid that allows a part or almost the entire surface of a container lid to be opened easily by hand is a tear-off system in which the handle and the opening piece are torn off and the can body is separated, and both the handle and the opening piece are opened. The Steintab method, which remains fixed to the can body even after the can is put into practical use, has been put into practical use. In any of the methods, most of the easy-open can lids are manufactured from aluminum plates for the reasons of manufacturing technology, and steel plates are currently used for some limited purposes.

As a typical example of the prior art, a coated aluminum plate or steel plate is used as a material, and after punching into a basic lid shape, the lid body is placed on a flat lower die, and a desired contour shape is formed from the upper surface thereof. By pressing the sharp blade which it has and making its blade bite into the lid main body, an opening piece shape surrounded by a cutting guide groove having a V-shaped cross section was formed as shown in FIG.

With respect to the formation of the cutting guide groove, it is necessary to violently press the sharp blade up to about half to 2/3 of the plate thickness before processing, and the depth of the cutting guide groove is very important. That is, when the depth of the cutting guide groove is too shallow, the can openability is poor, and when the depth is too deep, the impact strength against shock from the outside is insufficient, so that considerable accuracy is required.

Therefore, the machining tool is required to have a considerable degree of accuracy, but the tool life is a problem because the sharp blade is required to press hard. Particularly in the case of steel plates, there is a drawback that the tool life cannot be maintained. Further, in order to secure the corrosion resistance to the contents or prevent the rusting of the outer surface, it is necessary to carry out repair coating on the portion where the metal surface is exposed by the processing of the cutting guide groove.

As a measure for extending the tool life, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Sho 55 has been proposed.
As disclosed in JP-A-70434 and JP-A-57-175034, a method of forming a cutting guide groove by composite extrusion molding has been proposed. This known method was premised on the use of steel plates, and was an effective measure for extending the tool life, but the cross-sectional structure of the cutting guide groove part is complicated, so cutting with ordinary spray painting methods There was a drawback that the paint did not spread to all parts in the guide groove, and sufficient corrosion resistance could not be obtained even if repair painting was performed.

As described above, the easily openable lid, which is preliminarily coated regardless of whether an aluminum plate or a steel plate is used as the material, is used.

[0008] The coating is not only complicated in the baking process, but also requires a long heating for baking, and a large amount of solvent contained in the paint is discharged during the baking process, which causes pollution. In view of this, there is a problem that the discharged solvent must be incinerated in a special incinerator. Further, heating in coating baking and incineration of solvent cause carbon dioxide emission, which is a problem from the global environment.

Further, there are the following major problems in the recycling process. The material for the current easy-open can lid,
Vinyl chloride-based paints, particularly vinyl chloride organosols, are widely used as paints on aluminum and steel sheets because of their excellent processability, corrosion resistance of the coating film, retention of the flavor of the contents, and price. Moreover, a coating film made of a vinyl chloride-based paint produces extremely toxic dioxins when heated and burned. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the generation of dioxins when the used metal can body is recovered and incinerated or re-melted in the case of the easily openable lid using the vinyl chloride-based paint. At present, it seems that research and development of paints to replace vinyl chloride-based paints are also being made earnestly, but there is no promising one that can be used for a wide range of contents.

Regarding metal recycling, in the case of metal cans, so-called "monometal cans", in which the can body and the can lid are made of the same material, are suitable products for recycling. Most of the open can lids are made of aluminum. On the other hand, most of the can lids except the can body and the easy-open can lid are made of steel plate. Therefore, it has excellent openability,
It is eagerly desired to develop a method that can manufacture not only aluminum easy-opening can lids, which have no need of painting at all, and have excellent corrosion resistance, but also steel plate easy-opening can lids with high productivity.

When the shoulder radius is smaller than 0.1 mm, the portion of the shoulder radius is sharp, so that the laminating resin film of the material to be processed is flawed or broken during processing. Further, when the pressing process is performed under the condition of more than 1.0 mm, the material is pressed in a wide area. At this pressed portion, the adhesion between the metal and the resin deteriorates due to the processing. Forming a poor adhesion portion more than necessary causes feathers. Further, the poor adhesion portion of the coating film is not preferable in terms of corrosion resistance.

At the time of processing, the peripheral edge of the opening piece is pressed between the upper and lower molds so as to reach the desired thickness, thereby forming a thin-walled portion having a gradual plate thickness change. The metal thickness of the thinnest part needs to be ½ or less, more preferably ⅓ or less of the metal thickness before processing from the viewpoint of can openability.

By this processing, the breaking position at the time of opening the can is determined, but in order to improve the can opening property and to make the shape of the opening after the opening desirable, the opening piece portion extruded upward or downward is formed. Push back to near the previous level. There are various processing methods for pushback processing. As an example, as shown in FIG. 3, there is a method of forming a thin cutting guide groove by bending a thin portion formed by the pressing process and having a smooth plate thickness change into a V-shaped cross section. Furthermore, there is a method in which the shape of the opening is made desirable by forming a bead or a step in the vicinity of the thin portion having the gentle plate thickness change formed by the pressing process.
