INTRODUCTION
Itis a device used for
crushing aluminium soda cans
for easier storage in recycling
bins.
They are primarily used to
save space and recycling.
They make it possible to
make small stackable piles
that save space.
This is a single type.
Types of can crusher :1. Vertical can crusher
2. Horizontal can crusher
Horizontal can crusher
Horizontal can crusher can be installed any
where and any place
Vertical can crusher
Vertical can crusher only installed on vertical
surface like wall etc .
Different types of need arising for the use of
can crusher
Now a days the consumption of cans has been increased
due to the usage of soda water, cold drinks, food
storage, alcohol storage (bear).
DOMESTIC USE :- These days the food is generally
dehydrated for future use thats why dehydrated food
are stored in cans. Some examples are juices, fish etc.
INDUSTRIAL USE :- In industry cans are manufacture for
storage of various things like juice, cold drinks, food
storage etc. Therefore huge amount of cans are gathered
at some places and these cans equip large amount of
space. Due to this reason there is reduction in space
storage system thats why its need to crush for proper use
of space.
Therefore in can manufacturing industry can crusher is
used to save space of storage system and recycle the can
for further use.
SOME PICTURES OF CAN
STACKS
INSPIRATION
It came from the large stocks of
waste cans during festivals.
There were many problems in malls
and restaurants due to waste cans.
In canteens of big company often
the winter holidays involve large
parties where people gather and
consume a lot of canned beverages
large number of waste canes created
big problem of disposal.
Thus, it only makes sense that
there should be an easy way to
dispose of cans properly during
these large social gatherings.
So these problems of disposal
of waste cans inspired us to
make cane crusher.
OPERATION
The can crusher was designed with
simplicity and aesthetics in mind. In order
to produce a very cheap can crusher, a
manual is used this reduces the need for
an external power supply, and it does not
require much force to operate. The fact that
there are few parts to the product allows
repair to be easy.
OBJECTIVE
It provides small industries and giving job
to the people.
It reduces garbage of cans at any places
using can crusher.
It save electrical power because it is
operated manually.
It saves land pollution made by can stack.
Slider crank mechanism
A single slider crank chain is a modification of
the basic four bar chain. It consist of one sliding
pair and three turning pair. It is usually found in
reciprocating steam engine mechanism. This
type of mechanism converts rotary motion into
reciprocating motion and vice versa.
DESIGN
The can crusher will be made
up of various parts:1. Crank arm
2. Pedal
3. Base frame
4. Can bin
5.
Piston
cylinder
arrangement
6. Chain & Sprocket
7. Bearing
8.Seat post
CYCLE FRAME
The mechanical
core of a bicycle,
the frame
provides points of
attachment for
the various
components that
make up the
machine.
CRANK ARM
A crank arm is used
rotate the connecting
rod ,chain and it is also
used to rotate the
sprocket.
The crank arm should
be made of metal.
PEDAL
Themechanical
interface between
foot and crank arm.
There are two
general types; one
secures the foot with
a mechanical clamp
or cage and the
SPROCKET
A sprocket or
sprocket-wheel is
used to transfer the
motion from one
sprocket to another
with the help of chain
mechanism.
CHAIN
Chain is used to
transfer the motion
from one sprocket to
another. It is driven by
a toothed wheel called
a sprocket for power
transmission.
BASE FRAME
The stand which
supports the complete
assembly is made up
of 1 inch angle bars.
It is used to give the
base to the cylinder
and can storage frame.
It is mainly made from
cast iron and steel.
PISTON & PISTON CYLINDER
Piston is the reciprocating
part which reciprocates
inside the cylinder to crush
the aluminium can.
In this arrangement the
piston is moving part where
cylinder is rigid part.
It provides a base for the
can.
CAN BIN
Can bin is used to
store the crushed
bin.
It can be made
from wood ,tin
,steel and polymer.

APPLICATIONS
It is used in can manufacturing
industry for recycling of can.
It is used in many places where
cans are accumulated.
It is used in festivals.
It is used in bars.
It can be used in scrap
industries for crushing cans.
It can be used in multiplexes,
malls ,and in places where there
CRUSHED CAN
Crushing
ADVANTAGE
Self-loading : First of all, we will store all the CAN in bucket. One
after one can will take a position in crushing cylinder to crush.
Inexpensive : The cost of this can crusher is not so much. So,
every one can afford this.
Reliable : The design of the can crusher is so simple and it is easy
to use. So, the operating and crushing problem will not come. To
make it more reliable we are using sprocket, chain and gear in the
place of spring and pneumatic.
Not time consuming : This type of can crusher takes very small
time to crush the CAN.
Simple : Its design is very simple.
FUTURE SCOPE
Industry application: In future,
crusher may be applied to crush various
things other than can. Examples: Plastic
bottles, Food Preserving bottles etc.
Pollution control: A can crusher do
not pollute environment because for
reducing the volume of goods we do
not have to use the fuel. It does not
emit harmful gases or liberate liquid to
pollute air or water resources
respectively.
LIMITATION
Low production rate .
It takes more time to crush more
can ,because it is single crusher and
it crushes one can per cycle.
It cannot be operated by one people
simultaneously.
CONCLUSION
Taking into this analysis into account, the construction of the can
crusher should be relatively cheap, and can serve as an attractive
decorative product for the upcoming market (as compared with
current market can crushers). The crusher is easy to use, and has
an open slot at the bottom end so that the entire can crusher can
be placed horizontally over a recycling receptacle.
In terms of design, more elements may be added to the can
crusher; any location on which has a very high factor of safety
can be hollowed out to reduce costs.
