Author : Ashraf ElfasakhanyVolume 7 No.2 July-December 2018 pp 62-69
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present a review study for patents of can crusher machines. This review is very useful for any inventor to get detailed information of the early patents for the can crusher machines. The review here covered the patents between the period from 2008 to 2018 (include my patent in 2016). The study presented a summary for 45 patents, however, detailed descriptions for each patent are going to be presented in a separate study. The current study presented title of each patent, patent number, name of the inventor and the patent issued date. This review work is thinking to be useful for inventors worked on patents for can crusher machines.
