ABSTRACT:
A bottle crusher formed of an enclosed chute into which bottles are dropped, with a motor driven rotating plate arranged at the lower end of the chute to receive and break the bottles. The motor is located below the plate and mounted upon brackets arranged at spaced points around the periphery of the plate. Vanes are formed upon the upper surface of the plate, with the vanes sloped upwardly from the center of the plate toward the edges and with at least one vane terminating considerably inwardly of the plate edge to form a high point for breaking bottles landing upon it. The bottles are broken by the impacting of the vanes and fragments are thrown upwardly by the slope of the vanes for repeated dropping and impacting, as well as for breaking the bottles between the brackets and vanes, so that the crushed fragments of glass fall off the plate for collection below the plate and motor.
