Necked-in aerosol container-method of forming

摘要

An apparatus and method for forming integral domed can bodies for aerosol cans. The apparatus is in the form of plural sets of tools, each set of tools including an inside tool and an outside tool so related as progressively to reduce the diameter of an end portion of the tubular body and in doing so gradually increasing the axial extent of an intermediate frustoconical portion. Each frustoconical intermediate portion is increased in extent axially by seating the previously formed portion on the inside tool and then shaping the blank on that same surface, whereby there is no interruption or stepping of the formed frustoconical intermediate portion of the blank.
