Abstract: A conversion press wherein a crankshaft drives the motion of the tooling assemblies within a number of lanes is provided. The crankshaft is structured to move the tooling assemblies associated with less than the total number of lanes. That is, for example, a four lane conversion press could include two crankshafts each actuating the tooling assemblies of two lanes. In an exemplary embodiment, each lane has a single associated crankshaft.

Abstract: A printing plate pressure adjustment system for a can decorator including a printing plate cylinder assembly having a printing plate cylinder drive shaft, and a blanket wheel. The system includes an actuator, a control system structured to control operation of the actuator to adjust a pressure between the printing plate cylinder assembly and the blanket wheel, an eccentric bushing disposed around the printing plate cylinder drive shaft, wherein rotation of the eccentric bushing causes the printing plate cylinder to move toward or away from the blanket wheel, and a drive mechanism coupled between the actuator and the eccentric bushing, wherein operation of the actuator causes the drive mechanism to rotate the eccentric bushing.

Abstract: A zero-scrap method and associating tooling for manufacturing can bodies is provided. A metal sheet is shorn into strips, and each strip is wound to form a cylindrical tube. Each tube is cut into two or more can bodies using a zigzagged pattern, such that each can body has one planar edge and one zigzagged edge with triangular formations. Each can body is mounted on a mounting base for support while steps are performed to form the zigzagged edge into the can body base. A folding die folds the triangular formations until their apexes all coincide with one another and with the central axis of the can body. A flattening die then flattens the folded formation into a flat end of the can body. A friction stir welding assembly then stir welds the entire flat end of the can body at one time in order to seal all seams.

Abstract: A can base with a friction coating adhered thereto is provided, with the can base including a seating formation structured to cooperate with an external surface when the base is disposed on the external surface. The friction coating is structured to increase friction between the seating formation and the external surface relative to what the friction would otherwise be if the seating formation were not coated with the friction coating.

Abstract: A turbine system structured to generate electricity from waste gas includes a combustor structured to burn gas to heat air, a heat exchanger structured to receive the heated air, and a turbine energy conversion system including a compressor turbine structured to compress ambient air and provide the compressed air to the heat exchanger, wherein the heat exchanger is structured to heat the compressed air with the heated air, a generator turbine structured to be turned by the heated compressed air from the decompressor turbine, and a generator structured to be turned by the generator turbine and to generate electricity in response to being turned. The turbine system further includes a mixer structured to receive excess air from the heat exchanger and the generator turbine and to mix the excess air with ambient air to a desired temperature.

Abstract: A connection rod coupling assembly includes a settable shape mounting second component having a lateral, primary axis and a bearing assembly including a bearing assembly body. The bearing assembly body includes a substantially cylindrical outer surface and a center axis. The bearing assembly body is coupled to the settable shape mounting second component in a non-aligned configuration. That is, the bearing assembly body center axis is offset from the settable shape mounting second component primary axis. Thus, the position of the bearing assembly body center axis is adjustable by repositioning the settable shape mounting second component relative to a settable shape mounting first component on a swing lever. The adjustment of the bearing assembly body, in turn, adjusts the range of the ram assembly and the ram assembly body.

Abstract: A can curing oven including a housing assembly, a transfer assembly, and a number of heating units. The housing assembly defines a generally enclosed space. The transfer assembly is structured to support and move a number of can bodies. The transfer assembly includes an elongated transfer belt. The transfer belt is movably coupled to the housing assembly and is structured to move through the housing assembly enclosed space. The number of heating units are structured to generate an effective amount of received heat.

Abstract: A can end including a central panel with an expandable bubble disposed thereon is provided. The use of an expandable bubble allows for an expandable rivet button and thereafter an expandable rivet that has an enhanced overlap of a tab body. Such an expandable rivet allows for the use of a metal sheet with a thinner base thickness.
