Abstract: An apparatus for automatically feeding an oil filter(s) (3, 3A) into a crushing zone to shear a canister (18) from a connector plate (38, 38A). The apparatus feed the oil filters into the crushing zone one at a time for the crushing by a movable wall (208) against a fixed wall (211) to flatten the canister while blade (209) shears the canister from the connector plate. The apparatus enables capture of oil and recycling of the canister and connector plate.
