Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

To provide a can container to achieve a higher pressure resistance strength by improving the shape of the bottom part of the can container. The can container includes a can barrel and a can bottom, the can bottom provided with, in a center thereof, a dome part concaved toward the inside of the can container along the can axis direction, and an annular convex part projecting toward the outside of the can container to shape an annular support part in an outer periphery of the dome part, wherein an inner peripheral surface extending from the support part of the annular convex part to an outer peripheral edge part of the dome part includes a recessed part where the outer peripheral edge part of the dome part is positioned in a direction of being farther away from the can axis than an innermost part of the inner peripheral surface.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A can container, comprising: a can barrel and a can bottom, the can bottom being provided with, in a center thereof, a dome part concaved toward an inside of the can container along a direction of a can axis, and an annular convex part that projects toward an outside of the can container so as to shape an annular support part in an outer periphery of the dome part, wherein an inner peripheral surface extending from the support part to an outer peripheral edge part of the dome part includes a recessed part in which the outer peripheral edge part of the dome part is positioned in a direction farther away from the can axis than an innermost part of the inner peripheral surface, and a depth of the recessed part is 0.3 mm to 1.0 mm. 2. The can container according to claim 1 , wherein an imaginary line in contact with the innermost part and parallel to the can axis intersects with a curved surface of the dome part. 3. The can container according to claim 1 , wherein the recessed part includes a linear tapered surface in a vertical cross section view along the can axis. 4. The can container according to claim 3 , wherein an inclination angle on the can axis side between the tapered surface and a support surface in contact with the support part is 100° to 125°. 5. The can container according to claim 4 , wherein a height from the support surface to an outermost part of the inner peripheral surface is 2.0 mm to 4.0 mm. 6. The can container according to claim 1 , wherein the outermost part of the inner peripheral surface is a compressive deformation bent part. 7. The can container according to claim 1 , wherein a roll forming trace does not exist on the inner peripheral surface. 8. The can container according to claim 2 , wherein the recessed part includes a linear tapered surface in a vertical cross section view along the can axis. 9. The can container according to claim 8 , wherein an inclination angle on the can axis side between the tapered surface and a support surface in contact with the support part is 100° to 125°. 10. The can container according to claim 9 , wherein a height from the support surface to an outermost part of the inner peripheral surface is 2.0 mm to 4.0 mm. 11. The can container according to claim 5 , wherein the outermost part of the inner peripheral surface is a compressive deformation bent part. 12. The can container according to claim 10 , wherein the outermost part of the inner peripheral surface is a compressive deformation bent part. 13. A can container, comprising: a can barrel and a can bottom, the can bottom being provided with, in a center thereof, a dome part concaved toward an inside of the can container along a direction of a can axis, and an annular convex part that projects toward an outside of the can container so as to shape an annular support part in an outer periphery of the dome part, wherein an inner peripheral surface extending from the support part to an outer peripheral edge part of the dome part includes a recessed part in which the outer peripheral edge part of the dome part is positioned in a direction farther away from the can axis than an innermost part of the inner peripheral surface, wherein the recessed part includes a linear tapered surface in a vertical cross section view along the can axis, wherein an inclination angle on the can axis side between the tapered surface and a support surface in contact with the support part is 105° to 110°, and wherein a height from the support surface to an outermost part of the inner peripheral surface is 3.0 mm to 4.0 mm.
