Beverage Cans Crusher Machine Patents: A Review (Part III)
Author : Ashraf ElfasakhanyVolume 8 No.1 January-June 2019 pp 1-7
Abstract
One of the compulsory tasks for inventors of can crusher machine is to scan all previous designs/inventions. Such work is very hard as well as time consuming. The study here aims at summarizing the inventions for can crusher machines that introduced in the period from 1996 to 1999, e.g., about half a decade. The study introduces a brief summary of inventions with the design layout, however, a detailed description of inventions might be presented in a separate study. A total of 42 patents were covered in the covered time period. It is planned, in the next papers, to present the inventions for other time intervals.
