Abstract:
Crushing apparatus for crushing containers which includes a tray on which the container is received and which can be positioned along side the housing of a crushing unit. A wiper panel is operated to move the container off the tray and into the crushing unit and onto a lower crushing platen. An upper crushing platen is then stroked down to crush the container. Following crushing, the lower platen is slid away from the crushing unit housing and the crushed container falls to a collection location.
