Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 152 words
A steel sheet for drawing and ironing worked cans, characterized in that a center-line average surface roughness Ra of said steel sheet is within a range of 0.1˜4.0 μm, and a microscopic shape constituting said surface roughness is comprised of trapezoidal mountain portions having a flat top surface, groove-like valley portions formed so as to surround a whole or a part of the mountain portion and middle flat portions formed between the mountain portions outside the valley portion so as to be higher than the bottom of the valley portion and lower than or equal to the top surface of the mountain portion and satisfies the following relations: 1.0≦Sm/D≦1.7 30≦d≦500 (μm) , wherein Sm is a mean center distance between the adjoining mountain portions, D is a mean diameter in the outer periphery of the valley portion and d is a mean diameter in the flat top surface of the mountain portion.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 152 words
