The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a metal container, and more particularly to a method for manufacturing a metal container having a circumferential overlap seam on the side surface, particularly a bottle-shaped metal container. The upper body and the lower body, each made of a cup-shaped molded body formed by drawing or drawing-ironing a metal material, are lap-joined at the open end on the circumference, and the circumferential side seam is The formed bottle-shaped metal containers have many advantages over so-called can-shaped metal containers. Among conventional metal containers for packaging, those called three-piece cans have a can lid double-sealed to the top and bottom of the can body, which has side seams, to form a sealed part, and those called two-piece cans In this case, a sealed portion is formed by double seaming between the open end of a cup-shaped can body formed by drawing or drawing-ironing a metal material and the can lid. However, such a double-sealed metal container is subject to major limitations in terms of pressure resistance of the sealed portion and in terms of saving the metal material. That is,
In double-sealed joints, the material that makes up the joint deforms first due to the load applied to the joint, and this deformation causes joint leakage and joint failure to occur with relatively small loads. . In order to prevent this, the material itself must be considerably thicker. In addition, in packaging containers, it is always required to make the metal material used thinner, both from the standpoint of economy and from the standpoint of reducing the weight of the container, but when making the container body wall thinner, there are two There is a problem in that buckling is likely to occur due to loads applied in the axial direction of the container during heavy seaming processes or preparatory processes such as flange processing. A metal bottle made by lap-joining an upper body and a lower body each made of a cup-shaped molded body at their open ends will not cause any deformation of the material at the seam, even if the material forming the seam is extremely thin. figure,
It is possible to withstand up to the shear strength of the seam, which is independent of the thickness of the material, and since there is no need for a seaming process, it has the advantage that the side wall of the container can be made thinner without fear of buckling. However, when the upper and lower bodies are lap-jointed at their open ends to form a circumferential side seam, there are several problems that are different from the case of ordinary can body lap-joints. In other words, in the case of a straight lap joint of the can body, both ends of the joint are mechanically fixed by seaming to the can lid, but in the case of the circumferential side joint described above, the joint is secured all around the entire circumference. Since there is no mechanical fixation across the joint, dimensional deformation of the seam itself is likely to occur easily. Furthermore, since the diameter of the open end tends to change due to temperature changes, stress is likely to occur in the adhesive layer. Furthermore, when bonding with a straight lap joint, it is easy to apply the necessary pressing force to the overlapping portion that becomes the joint, but in the case of a joint where cups are fitted together,
It is difficult to apply the pressing force necessary for adhesion. At this time, due to the dimensional difference between the outer diameter of the inner end of the joint and the inner diameter of the outer end of the joint,
When a pressing force is generated in the adhesive layer, it becomes increasingly difficult to fit these open ends together by pushing them together, and even if forced fitting is performed, the adhesive strength, sealing performance, pressure resistance of the seam, or these problems may be affected. This tends to cause drawbacks regarding the durability of properties. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to manufacture a metal container having the above-mentioned circumferential side seam so that the open ends can be easily fitted together, the adhesive strength and sealing properties are excellent, and the mechanical strength of the seam can be improved. The present invention also seeks to provide a method by which improved containers can be obtained. Another object of the present invention is to provide a metal container having a circumferential seam that is economical and free from leakage, with uniform adhesive strength around the entire circumference of the seam. Still another object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a metal container in which cups can be easily fitted together and the pressing force necessary for adhesion can be easily obtained. In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention has the following steps: (A) When manufacturing a metal container by joining a cup-shaped upper body and a cup-shaped lower body by overlapping and joining their open ends, (A) a circumferential shape; The open end of the upper body, which is the outside of the side joint, is made to expand outward with a curvature or taper from the vertical inner wall of the upper body, and (B) the inner diameter of the vertical inner wall, which is the joint of the upper body. of
D 2 , the outward expansion dimension of the curvature or taper portion is n, the outer diameter of the vertical outer wall that forms the joint of the lower body is D 1 , and the thickness of the adhesive layer provided at the joint is d A , each The dimensional relationship of the members shall satisfy the following formulas D 2 + n > D 1 + 2d A (1) and D 1 + 2d A > D 2 (2), (C) The upper body or lower body (D) Apply a thermoplastic adhesive to at least one of the open ends of the upper body, and (D) fit the two together by pressing the tip of the lower body against the curvature or taper of the upper body while the adhesive layer is solidified. (E) The fitting part is heated to melt the adhesive, and then the adhesive is cooled to join the upper body and the lower body. The invention will be explained in detail below. In FIGS. 1 and 2 showing an example of a metal bottle according to the present invention, this bottle includes a lower body 1 made of a seamless cup-shaped molded body made of metal such as a tin-plated steel plate, and a seamless cup-shaped molded body made of metal such as a tin-plated steel plate. These cup-shaped molded bodies have open end parts 3 and 4 which are overlapped and joined to form a circumferential side seam 5, thereby forming a container. integrated into the shape. In this embodiment, the lower body 1 is a cup consisting of a tall thin side wall 6 formed by highly drawn and ironed metal material and a thick bottom 7 that has not been substantially ironed; On the other hand, upper body 2
is a short side wall 8 formed by shallow drawing of metal material.
It is a cup consisting of a top wall 9 and a top wall 9. The height of the side wall portion 8 of the upper body 2 is within a range that is equal to or slightly larger than the width of the joint 5. The upper wall 9 of the upper body 2 has an upwardly convex tapered surface, and a spout 10 for filling or taking out the contents is formed in the center thereof. It will thus be clear that the upper body 2 is joined onto the lower body in the form of a so-called shoulder and neck of a bottle. According to the present invention, the part that is outside the circumferential side seam, that is, the open end 4 of the upper part 2 in the figure, is expanded outwardly with a curvature or taper from the vertical inner wall part 8 of the upper part 2. Prepare as follows. Furthermore, in the preferred embodiment shown in FIG.
The open end portion 3 of the open end portion 3 is narrowed to have a smaller diameter than the other body wall portion 6 through a neck portion 11 by a neck-in process at a portion adjacent to the open end portion 3. At least one of the open ends of the lower body 1 or the upper body 2, in the figure the open end 3 of the lower body 1, is provided with a thermoplastic adhesive layer 12, and the open end that is on the outside of the seam is provided with a thermoplastic adhesive layer 12. 4 is fitted on the outside of the open end 3 which is inside the seam, and this fitted part, that is, the overlapping part is heated to melt the adhesive layer 12,
Then, by cooling the upper body 2 and the lower body 1
Glue and fix. In FIG. 3 illustrating how to fit the open end 4 of the upper body 2 to the outside of the open end 3 of the lower body 1, the open end 4 of the upper body 2 is tapered outwardly. Alternatively, the inner surface 13 has a curvature. Thus, the end portion 4 of the upper body 2 has a vertical surface 14.
D 2 is the inner diameter of the tapered surface or the curved surface 13.
Dimensions of outward expansion of the tip 15 (increase in diameter)
When n is the outer diameter of the open end 3 of the lower body 1, D 1 is the thickness of the adhesive layer 12 provided on the outside of the open end 3, and d A is the thickness of the adhesive layer 12 provided on the outside of the open end 3, each of these members is expressed by the following formula D The dimensional relationship is such that the following relationship holds: 2 +n>D 1 +2d A (1) D 1 +2d A > D 2 (2). According to the present invention, the surface 13 has an outwardly expanding taper or curvature on the inner surface side of the open end portion 4 that is outward.
By providing this, significant advantages can be achieved in terms of ease of fitting the cup-shaped molded body, adhesiveness, and prevention of joint deformation. That is, by forming the tapered or curved surface 13 that expands outward as described above, the tip of the inner open end portion 3 comes into contact with this tapered or curved surface 13 when the two cup-shaped molded bodies are fitted together. Then, the two open ends are smoothly slid and guided along this surface to a position where they are fully overlapped, and the two can be easily fitted together without using any special equipment. be exposed. In particular, by providing the tapered or curved surface 13 that satisfies the above formula (1), even if the open end 3 of the part 1 on the inside of the seam is slightly deformed from a perfect circle, both Even if there is a slight deviation in the axes of the open ends of the parts, the tapered or curved surface 13 of the outer part 2 itself acts as a guide, and the fitting of both parts can be easily and smoothly carried out. . When joining circumferential open ends together via an adhesive layer, in order to provide adhesive force to the joint, thermal bonding must be performed under conditions that create an appropriate pressing force between the open ends. As mentioned above, it is necessary to do this. According to the present invention, the above formula (2)
As shown in , even when the dimensions of each member are such that a pressing force is applied to the intervening adhesive layer 12, the two parts can be fitted together very easily, making it possible to form a seam with excellent adhesive strength. becomes possible. Moreover, according to the present invention, since the inner surface of the open end of the outer body is made into a tapered or curved surface, the inner surface of the open end of the outer body is made into a tapered or curved surface. Fitting and adhesion are possible, and a container with uniform adhesive force over the entire circumference of the seam can be obtained. In other words, in containers whose open edges are glued together in a deformed state, the seam tends to deform into a circular shape when internal pressure is applied, and this creates large stress in the adhesive layer, resulting in long Although problems such as adhesive deterioration and leakage are likely to occur over time,
In the method of the present invention, even if the open end is made very thin by drawing and ironing, deformation of the end during fitting is prevented, and adhesive deterioration and leakage over time are prevented. Furthermore, if the inner wall of the outer part or the outer wall of the inner part is scratched, the protective coating on the metal material will peel off, and the metal will be directly bonded to the adhesive layer in this area. However, since the adhesive force between the metal and the thermal adhesive layer is much smaller than when the two are bonded through a protective coating, scratches like this are still likely to occur.
This causes adhesive deterioration and leakage, but according to the present invention, such causes are also eliminated. Furthermore, in the present invention, forming a tapered or curved surface 13 that widens toward the end at the open end of the outer member provides a significant advantage in making the seam stronger. That is, by creating a structure in which the open end is bent, the rigidity of the outer open end 4, and therefore the rigidity of the entire joint 5, becomes extremely high.
The joint 5 as a whole has a structure that is extremely resistant to deformation. That is, according to the present invention, not only can the final joint shape be made into a perfect circle or nearly a perfect circle, which is desirable for preventing adhesive deterioration and leakage over time, but also
When fitting both parts, it prevents the end of the inner part from deforming, and if the end of the part is deformed, the effect of straightening it to a perfect circle is even more effective. There is also the advantage of being able to obtain In the present invention, according to a preferred embodiment shown in more detail in FIG. When formed, the above-mentioned effects are further enhanced. That is, this network portion 11
Due to the presence of , the rigidity of the seam 5 becomes even higher, and the deformation prevention function of the seam 5 is further increased. Further, the adhesive layer 12 interposed between the open end portions 3 and 4 is bonded to the tapered or curved surface 13 and the neck portion 1 due to the axial load applied during fitting or bonding.
1, and the seam 5 can have a significantly high adhesive strength in this portion. Furthermore, the tapered or curvature surface 13 and the neck portion 1
1 through the adhesive layer 12,
The advantage is achieved that the fit between the two always takes place in a constant position, so that a container of constant height is obtained. In the present invention, the average taper angle of the tapered or curved surface 13 is 1.5 in terms of ease of fitting.
A range of 45 degrees to 45 degrees, particularly 3 to 30 degrees is desirable. On the other hand, if this surface 13 has a curvature, the curvature (l/R) is preferably in a range of 1/100 to 2 mm -1 . In addition, the aforementioned expansion dimension n is 0.2 mm or more, especially 0.6
It is desirable to set it to mm or more. In the present invention, the metal materials constituting the container include untreated steel plates (black plates), various surface-treated steel plates, such as tin-plated steel plates (tin plate),
Galvanized steel sheets such as galvanized steel sheets, aluminium-plated steel sheets, nickel-plated steel sheets, chrome-plated steel sheets; electrolytically treated steel sheets such as electrolytic chromic acid treated steel sheets; chemically treated steel sheets such as phosphoric acid and/or chromic acid treated steel sheets;
A light metal plate such as aluminum or a composite material thereof is used. In order to form a drawn and ironed cup, the metal material described above is punched into a shape such as a disk, subjected to one-stage or multi-stage drawing processing between a drawing punch and a drawing die, and the drawn cup is used as a drawn and ironed punch. It is subjected to multi-stage ironing process between the die and the die. The operations and conditions for these drawing and ironing processes are known per se. The thickness of the metal material to be processed varies depending on the final dimensions of the container and the type of material, but it is generally desirable to be in the range of 0.2 to 0.5 mm, especially 0.2 to 0.35 mm. The thickness of the side wall formed by processing is 0.05 to 0.20 mm, especially 0.06 to 0.20 mm.
It is best to set it to 0.17mm. Although it is not particularly necessary in the case of metal materials with excellent workability such as aluminum, in general, the ironing rate of the open end of the cup that is subjected to neck-in processing is
It is advantageous to set the ironing rate to a light ironing rate that is 5 to 30% lower than that of the other sidewall portions in order to prevent damage to this portion during neck-in processing. For this purpose, the ironing process is performed in multiple stages of three or more while gradually narrowing the gap between the punch and die, and at this time, in the final stage of ironing, the open end of the cup should not be ironed. be able to. Drawing and ironing The cup-shaped neck-in process is performed so that the above-mentioned dimensional relationships are satisfied. This metal material may be coated with a corrosion-resistant protective coating prior to forming the cup, or the cup may be trimmed and, if necessary, treated with a cleaning treatment, e.g. with phosphoric acid and/or chromic acid. After the surface chemical treatment, at least the inner surface is coated with a corrosion-resistant protective coating. As protective coatings, any coatings consisting of thermosetting and thermoplastic resins may be used; for example, phenolic epoxy coatings, amino-epoxy coatings,
Modified epoxy paints such as epoxy paints: For example, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, partially saponified vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate-maleic anhydride copolymer, epoxy modified, epoxy amino modified -or vinyl or modified vinyl paints such as epoxyphenol-modified vinyl resin paints; acrylic resin paints; synthetic rubber paints such as styrene-butadiene copolymer, etc. are used. These paints can be applied in the form of solutions in organic solvents such as enamel or lacquer, or in the form of aqueous dispersions or solutions, by spraying, dipping, electrostatic coating,
Applied to the cup in the form of electrophoretic painting, etc. Of course, if the resin paint is thermosetting, the paint may be baked if necessary. The above-mentioned shallow-drawn cup serving as the upper body is formed by shallow-drawing a metal material pre-applied with the above-mentioned paint using a press mold or a combination of a drawing punch and a drawing die. After the molding, the upper wall of the cup is punched to form a spout to form the upper body. In the present invention, any thermoplastic resin adhesive that can be heat-sealed can be used as the adhesive layer 12, but the following are preferably used. Nylon adhesives such as nylon 13, nylon 12, nylon 11, nylon 6, 12, or copolyamides or blends thereof; polyester adhesives such as polyethylene terephthalate/isophthalate, polytetramethylene terephthalate/isophthalate, etc. Adhesive: acid-modified olefin resin, ethylene-acrylic acid ester copolymer, ionically crosslinked olefin copolymer (ionomer),
These include olefin adhesives such as ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. The adhesive described above is applied to the open edges of the cups to be joined prior to mating the cups together. This adhesive layer has a resin layer thickness of 10 to 200 μm,
In particular, it is best to apply it so that the thickness is 20 to 150 μm, and the width of the overlapping joint, that is, the lap width is 1.
It is preferable to apply the coating to a thickness of 30 mm to 30 mm, particularly 2 to 20 mm. Adhesive resins can be used in various forms, such as films,
The adhesive of the present invention can be applied to the desired part of the cup in the form of powder, slurry, solution, plastisol or emulsion.In particular, the adhesive of the present invention is easy to handle and apply, and can be easily dried and other operations. It is also an advantage that they can be applied in film form. Adhesive application methods include lamination, extrusion, electrostatic powder coating, electrodeposition coating, spray coating, nozzle discharge, dip coating, roll coating, brushing, etc., depending on the form of the adhesive. A coating method can be adopted. When the protective paint is applied to the parts of the metal materials to be joined, the paint acts as a primer for the adhesive and provides desired adhesion. Of course, it is also possible to pre-apply a paint that will become a plasma to the metal material prior to applying the adhesive. Furthermore, when the circumferential open ends of the cups are overlapped and joined together, the cut edge of the metal material is inevitably exposed inside the joint. This cutlet,
The cut edge may also be protected by wrapping it with adhesive tape or applying an adhesive powder, slurry or solution to the cut edge prior to fitting the cup. The adhesive can be applied to the outside or inside surface of the open edge of the cup, which is the inside or outside of the seam;
It can also be applied to both sides. The adhesive-applied cup is fitted onto the other cup as described above, and the adhesive present in the overlap is melted and then cooled to form a seam.
Heating of the overlapping part can be done by high frequency induction heating, infrared heating, hot air heating, heat transfer heating from a heating element, etc., and cooling of the joint can be done by any operation such as air cooling, air cooling, water cooling, etc. . In the present invention, by employing the above-described means, the fitting of both open ends can be performed even at room temperature.
A significant advantage is that it results from relatively small axial compressive forces. Although this compressive force differs depending on the dimensional relationship in equation (2) above, it is generally between 0.1 and 2.
80Kg, especially in a relatively low range like 0.5 to 60Kg. Of course, if desired, the outer open end may be expanded by heating when the cup is fitted. The bottle according to the present invention is particularly useful as a container for contents having autogenous pressure such as carbonated drinks, beer, and low-malt beer, and as an internal pressure container for filling nitrogen gas, liquid nitrogen, etc. together with the contents. The metal bottle obtained by the present invention is different from the conventional plastic bottle (polyethylene terephthalate 2
It has significant advantages over axially stretched bottles) and glass bottles. Table 1 summarizes these advantages.

[Table] The method of the present invention can be modified in many ways without departing from the spirit described above. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, not only the lower body 1 but also the upper body 2 may be formed into a cup formed by drawing and ironing so that the circumferential side seam 5 is located at the center of the body.
Further, instead of narrowing the open end 3 of the lower body 1 to a small diameter by neck-in processing, it can also be made straight. The invention is illustrated by the following example. Example 1 A tin-plated steel plate with a base thickness of 0.3 mm is punched out to a diameter of 120 mm, and formed into a cup shape with an inner diameter of 85 mm between a drawing punch and a drawing die according to a conventional method. Next, after subjecting this cup-shaped molded product to a re-drawing process, the diameter
Ironing was performed using a 66.10 mm ironing punch and several-order dies. The inner and outer surfaces of this lower body were painted and baked with epoxy paint, and the outer diameter was 64.12 mm. Next, 5mm from the open end of this lower body.
A thermoplastic adhesive was applied in a circumferential manner to a width of 60 μm and a thickness using a conventional method. On the other hand, the upper body is a bright tin-plated steel plate (T-1 material plating amount #25/50) with a base thickness of 0.23 mm that has been coated with epoxy ester paint on both sides and baked.
was punched out into a 96 mm diameter disc, and formed by conventional press processing, so that the tip of the open end was closer to the vertical inner wall.
Expands outward with a diameter of 1.0mm and a curvature of 1/4mm at the end.
Processed to be -1 . A spout was also provided on the upper wall of the upper body. The diameter of the vertical inner wall of the upper body is 64.20.
It was warm in mm. Next, the upper body and the lower body were fitted together at room temperature, the fitted portion was heated by high frequency induction to melt the adhesive, and then cooled to join the upper body and the lower body to form a bonded metal container. At this time, we investigated the fitting yield, scratches on the upper body wall, and variations in adhesive strength. The results are shown in Table 2. Note that the adhesive strength was measured by cutting out a 5 mm wide circumferential portion of the joint and measuring the 90 degree peel strength. Example 2 The tip of the open end of the upper body is closer to the vertical inner wall of the upper body.
A bonded metal container was produced in the same manner as in Example 1, except that it was processed to have a diameter of 1.0 mm, expand outward, and have an inclination angle of 15 degrees at the end. At this time, the fitting yield, scratches on the upper body wall, and variations in adhesive strength were investigated. The results are shown in Table 2. Comparative Example 1 The lower body was manufactured in the same manner as in Example 1, and the upper body was manufactured in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the open end was processed so that it did not expand outward from the vertical inner wall. Similar to Example 1, an attempt was made to fit the upper body and the lower body together at room temperature, but the ends collided with each other and it was not possible to fit them together. Comparative Example 2 An upper body and a lower body were produced in the same manner as in Comparative Example 1, and then the open end of the upper body was heated to 200°C to expand its diameter and fitted into the lower body, and the fitted part was heated by high-frequency induction heating. The adhesive was melted and then cooled to form a bonded metal container. At this time, the fitting yield, scratches on the upper body wall, and variations in adhesive strength were investigated. The results are shown in Table 2.
