Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal can manufacturing technology, and in particular to a metal can embossed structure. Background Technology

[0002] Metal cans, commonly known as aluminum cans, have lids and bodies manufactured separately and then assembled together. There are two main materials used to manufacture aluminum cans: aluminum and tinplate. Because aluminum has a high recycling value, and for environmental reasons, aluminum is increasingly used in aluminum cans. Before the thin sheet metal is formed, it undergoes a corrugating process.

[0003] A search revealed a metal surface grinding device under publication number CN212653258U. This device includes a frame, on which a material tank, a vibration device, a rotation drive device, and an ultrasonic device are mounted. The material tank holds abrasive and metal workpieces. The vibration and ultrasonic devices drive the material tank to vibrate. The rotation drive device drives the material tank to rotate. The vibration device includes a vibratory base mounted on the frame, a connecting frame connected to the vibratory base, a vibratory motor mounted on the connecting frame, and a centrifugal block connected to the output shaft of the vibratory motor. The connecting frame is fixedly connected to the material tank. This metal surface grinding device can achieve a vintage effect by grinding metal surfaces that require an aged finish, improving processing efficiency and reducing labor costs.

[0004] While the above solution improves processing efficiency and reduces labor costs, it does not provide adequate clamping for the metal cans. The metal cans tend to wobble when moving, causing the production line to jam. Furthermore, the positioning of the metal cans during the embossing process is not accurate enough, resulting in poor embossing quality. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a metal can embossing structure. By setting up a moving unit, it solves the problem of insufficient clamping effect on the metal can and the problem of the metal can easily shaking and causing the production line to get stuck. By setting up an embossing unit, it solves the problem of inaccurate positioning of the metal can during embossing, resulting in poor embossing effect.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A metal can forming pattern structure includes a worktable, a movable unit disposed on the top of the worktable, and a patterning unit disposed on the side of the movable unit.

[0008] The moving unit includes two labeling posts fixedly connected to the top of the workbench, a limiting plate disposed on one side of the labeling posts, and a conveying assembly disposed between the labeling posts and the limiting plate.

[0009] The texturing unit includes a baffle on the other side of the two labeling posts, a texturing assembly on one side of the baffle, and a limiting assembly on the side of the texturing assembly.

[0010] Preferably, the conveying component in the moving unit includes a conveyor belt disposed between the labeling post and the limiting plate, a rotating disk disposed inside the conveyor belt, and an extension ring fixedly connected to both sides of the rotating disk and extending into the conveyor belt.

[0011] Preferably, the conveying component in the moving unit further includes a plurality of grooves formed inside the rotating disk, a first elastic column disposed inside the grooves, a first spring disposed on the surface of the first elastic column, a slider fixedly connected to one end of the first elastic column, and a first arc-shaped plate fixedly connected to the top of the slider.

[0012] Preferably, the conveyor belt in the moving unit is composed of multiple C-shaped small conveyor components.

[0013] Preferably, the texturing assembly in the texturing unit includes a driven disk disposed on one side of the baffle, a rotating motor fixedly connected to the top of the driven disk, a rotating column fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating motor, a texturing column fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating column, a plurality of texturing rings fixedly connected to the surface of the texturing column, and a base plate rotatably connected to the bottom of the texturing column.

[0014] Preferably, the limiting component in the embossing unit includes multiple cylinders fixedly connected to the top of the rotating disk, telescopic columns fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinders, a limiting disk fixedly connected to the bottom of the telescopic columns, multiple movable grooves opened inside the side of the limiting disk, a second elastic column disposed inside the movable groove, a second spring disposed on the surface of the second elastic column, and a second arc-shaped plate fixedly connected to one end of the second elastic column.

[0015] Preferably, a metal can is provided at the top of the rotating disk, the diameter of the metal can is equal to the distance between the baffle and the embossed column, and both the limiting plate and the baffle are arc-shaped.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] I. In this utility model, by setting up a moving unit, the metal can is placed on a rotating disk. Multiple first arc-shaped plates are in contact with the inner wall of the metal can under the action of the first elastic column and the first spring. At the same time, they move stably under the drive of the conveyor belt. During the subsequent rolling operation, the rotating disk can rotate stably under the action of the extension ring, thus ensuring the working stability of the production line.

[0018] II. In this utility model, by setting up the texturing unit, when the metal can moves to the vicinity of the baffle, the rotating motor is started to drive the outermost cylinder to the top of the corresponding metal can. The cylinder is then started to drive the limiting plate to descend, so that the limiting plate is inside the metal can. At the same time, under the action of the second elastic column and the second spring, the second arc plate is driven to fit against the inner wall of the metal can. Then, the rotating motor is started again to drive the texturing column and texturing ring to rotate. At the same time, the metal can also moves and rotates under the action of the rotating plate, thereby completing the texturing work. This improves the positional accuracy of the metal can during texturing and thus optimizes the texturing effect. Attached Figure Description
