When in work: 1) the necking conveyer belt 60 drives the tank body to move to a tank body necking station; 2) the telescopic assemblies 613 in the telescopic rotating mechanisms 611 on the two sides of the tank body respectively drive the positioning discs 616 to extend into the inner holes on the two ends of the tank body, and drive the side surfaces of the pressing discs 615 to be attached to the two end surfaces of the tank body so as to clamp the tank body; 3) the rotating component 614 drives the pressing disc 615 to rotate so as to drive the tank body to rotate, and the feed driving component 618 drives the necking tool 610 to be close to the end face of the tank body and to be embedded with the necking groove 617 to perform necking on the necking part of the tank body; 4) the head pre-pressing device 62 pre-presses the two heads to the two ends of the tank body, and the head pressing device 63 presses the heads to the two ends of the tank body to complete the tank body necking and head assembling processes. In the mode, the tank body is subjected to necking instead of the end socket; as shown in fig. 11, the head necking apparatus includes a rotary driving device 71, a head positioning device 72, a head compressing device 73 and a head necking tool 74, wherein an output end of the rotary driving device 71 is connected with the head positioning device 72, and the head positioning device 72 is used for supporting a head in a sleeving manner; the end socket pressing device 73 comprises an end socket pressing cylinder 731 and an end socket pressing head 732, and the output end of the end socket pressing cylinder 731 is hinged with the end socket pressing head 732; when the end socket is contracted: placing the seal head opening downwards and positioning the seal head lower end opening by a seal head positioning device 72; the end socket pressing cylinder 731 drives the end socket pressing head 732 to move downwards to press the upper end of the end socket; the rotary driving device 71 drives the end socket positioning device 72 to rotate so as to drive the end socket to rotate, and the end socket necking tool 74 is close to the end socket to perform necking on the end socket to complete the end socket necking process. In this way, the end socket positioning device 72 provides positioning support for the upper part of the end socket necking part and does not provide support for the inner side of the end socket necking part; when the end socket necking tool 74 extrudes and necks the end socket necking part, the end socket necking part is deformed due to the fact that only one-side force is applied to the end socket necking part, and therefore roundness of the end socket after necking is low. In the necking mode of the can body, the necking tool 610 is close to the end surface of the can body and is embedded with the necking groove 617 when necking the necking part of the can body, namely the necking part of the can body is supported and limited by the outer surface of the necking groove 617; thereby avoiding the condition that the tank body necking part is stressed on one side and improving the roundness of the tank body necking part.
