Abstract

One of the first step for inventors to avoid repetition of existed inventions is to study all previous inventions in the area. In view of that, we summarized here all early inventions for CAN crusher machines within years 1988 to 1991, while other periods will be presented in separate work. The study covered about 38 patents. A summary of each patent is presented in a very brief way. However, details about each patent could be presented in a separate study.

Keywords: Review; patents; CAN crusher machines; period 1988-1991

A Brief Summary of Can Crushers Patents
