ABSTRACT:
A can crusher includes two endless belt assemblies arranged alongside each other with the mutually facing runs of said belt assemblies being arranged to define a converging gap therebetween in the direction of motion of the belt so that a can to be crushed fed into the converging space is progressively crushed as it moves between the belts. One of the belt assemblies is pivotally mounted relative to the other such that the angle of convergence can vary, the conveyance movement being controlled by, for example, gas-springs.
