Can Crushing Mechanism Abstract An apparatus for crushing cans (10) uses a pair of guide rods (21 and 23) having an anvil (25 and 26) attached at each end, and a pair of sliding rams (30 and 31) sliding on the guide rods (21 and 23). Can support wire members (50) are positioned between each ram (30 and 31) and anvil (25 and 26) to support a can during crushing. A ram drive cam (36) alternately drives each ram (30 and 31) to crush a can against its associated anvil (25 and 26). The single drive cam (36) is connected through reduction gearing (53 and 55) to a flywheel (56) which is driven by an electric motor. Each ram (30 and 31) has a cam follower (42 and 45) and the rams (30 and 31) are connected together with springs (34 and 35) to maintain the cam followers (42 and 45) in continuous contact with the cam (36).
