Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a method for making a hollow metal object of truncated pyramidal form in which: - at least one blank of rectangular shape is cut out in a metal sheet, - two opposed edges of the said bottom are brought into a specified position, so as to form a body of cylindrical shape, - welding together the said edges in the said position, - the said body of cylindrical shape is shaped so as to obtain a body of truncated pyramidal shape, - a retention ring is produced on the periphery of the said body and in the vicinity of one end of the latter, the concavity of which faces outwards from the said body, the depth of the said concavity varying continuously between a maximum value on the small sides of the said body up to a substantially minimum value in the centre of the two large sides, so that the said end has a uniform edge. <IMAGE>
