A bottle-shaped can in which a cap can be mounted on a neck portion without damaging slits and bridges. An annular bead comprises a diametrically largest portion, an upper inclined surface, and a lower inclined surface. An angle of inclination of the upper inclined surface is narrower than that of the lower inclined surface. A thread ridge comprises an incomplete thread portion in which a groove depth is shallower than an average groove depth of the thread ridge, and the incomplete thread portion is formed at one end of the thread ridge on the upper inclined surface at least partially. An angle of inclination of a lower wall of the thread ridge is greater than that of the upper inclined surface so that a protruding corner is formed. The slits and the bridges are situated at a level lower than the protruding corner.

A metal cap in which a linear to be held to a cap body and separable from the cap body can be formed by a series of operations for forming the cap body and press molding the liner. The liner of the metal cap has a double-layer structure including a barrier layer on a top panel wall side and a sealing layer on the inner side of the cap body, and the barrier layer is temporarily bonded to the top panel wall with a weak adhesive at the time of molding the barrier layer and separated from the top panel wall by the natural cooling of the barrier layer after molding.

The present invention relates generally to a container that may be sealed and reclosed with a threaded closure. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods of manufacturing a metallic container having an opening with inwardly facing threads. The threads are formed on the metallic container by pressing a neck portion of the metallic container against closure threads of a threaded closure which is inserted at least partially into the opening. The container threads may optionally be formed while the threaded closure is in tension. In this manner, after the container threads are formed, the closure threads can apply a force to the container threads such that the threaded closure is in tension. The container opening may be selectively sealed and reclosed with the threaded closure which releasably engages the container threads. Novel apparatus and methods of sealing metallic containers and forming threads on the metallic containers are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a press-type composite internally and externally threaded portion forming system. In this case, the press-type composite internally and externally threaded portion forming system includes an expansion-type collet core unit (10) and a contraction-type collet core unit (20) as its principal components so that internally and externally threaded portions are formed by means of a press method in a composite manner in such a way that the expansion forming force of the expansion-type collet core unit (10) and the contraction forming force of the contraction-type collet core unit (20) simultaneously act on the inner and outer circumferential surfaces of a workpiece in opposite directions.

Capsule made of aluminum, suited to seal small tubes with open hole by using a capsule made of the same metallic material as the tube, the capsule being useful in the recycling of its materials after their end use; the capsule including: a cylindrical body made of aluminum, derived from the pressure received from the punch during cavity formation; a thread, imparted within the wall of the capsule, in turn imparting a thread on the outlet of the present small tube with open hole; at least a seal, installed on the internal side of the upper face of the capsule, isolating the product contained within the small tube and to increase the sealing properties of the package; and at least a lower band, adapted to represent a security seal so as to distinguish the capsules that have already been unscrewed from those that are still new.
