The invention relates to the technical field of battery recovery, in particular to a lithium iron phosphate battery crushing device and method. Comprising a crushing box; a hammering unit is rotationally connected to the position, close to a port in one end, of the inner wall of the crushing box, and a returning unit is rotationally connected to the position, close to a port in the other end, of the inner wall of the crushing box; the material returning unit comprises a second transmission rod; the second transmission rod is rotationally connected to the inner wall of the end, away from the hammering unit, of the smashing box, and the central axes of the two coincide. A second turntable is mounted on the second transmission rod; a plurality of sets of rotary table extension rods are distributed on the side wall of the second rotary table in an annular array mode, filter screen installation rods are installed at the other ends of the rotary table extension rods, and the other ends of the filter screen installation rods horizontally extend in the direction of the material hammering unit. Waste lithium iron phosphate battery fragments large in size are rebounded through the inner wall of the filter hopper for secondary smashing, and the smashing quality is improved.
