WILLIAM RILEY, `0F MADISON COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI.
Letters Potent No. 101,511, dated April 5, 1870.
IMPROVED WASHING-MACHINE.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it 'may concern Be itknown that L-WILLIAM RILEY, of the county of Madison and State of Mississipphhave invented certain new and useful Improvements in Washing- Machines; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact descriptionA of the same, reiference being had to the accompanying drawing and to the letters of reference marked thereon making part of this specification, in which Figure l is a side view.
Figure 2 is a horizontal sectional view.
Figure 3 is a top View.
The nature of my invention consists in securing the lower rubber ofthe washing-machine in a sash which has its hearings in a suitable sash-frame secured in the opposite sides of a rectangular box. The sash is supported by plate springs, which are provided with adjustable bearings. The upper rubber is connected with and worked byaI rock-shaft, which receives its motion through suitable crank-gearing, as hereinafter described.
To enable others skilled in the artto make and use my invention, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation.
A isan open frame-work, in which is secured the entire mechanism.
B is the box' that contains the water, andis constructedin Vthe -usual manner. This box may be of any desired form and dimensions, but I usually make it rectangular, and about two and a halt' by four and a half feet, and three feet deep.
On the opposite sides oi' this box B are secured slats b 11, which form a frame for the sash C to work/in.
C is a sash, and is nearly square, its width beinga little less only than the longest dimension 'of the box B, so as to receive and allow of its free movement in the sash-frame b b.
This sash C- is supported by two horizontal plate- \springs, O C', the ends of which pass through 'mortisesor slots c c, cut in the upper section of the sash.
-These springs C' C' also pass through openings in an adjustable and-movable shaft D, and are permaneutly secured to a shaft, D', which is secured and works in suitable bearings at the end of the frame A.
The shaft D can readily be moved Ain a horizontal direction, and is rendered adjustable vertically, by means of screws-d d.
On the lower cross-piece of the sash-frame (l is secured the lower or clothes-support rubber E.
This rubber consists of a series of small rollers or open-slats, e e, and is held through the tension of the springs C C', both in. its normal condition .and also while the machine is in motion, at a point a little below the horizontal line, in which moves the upper rubber E.
F is a lever, which is pivoted in a suitable support, F', att-ached to the side of the box B.
This lever F passesthrough a slotted bearing-plate, f, -ou the side of the sash C, and by means ot' which thesash, and consequently the rubber E, can be .depressed at pleasure.
G is a lever, that is secured to the upper rubber E'.
This lever works iu short, upright standards or sup 'ports G G.
H is a rockshaft, which is pivoted in suitable supports h h, attached to the lever G, and h' h. attached to the main or crank-shaft K.
The crank-shaft K runs across the frame, and is secured in suitable bearings on one ol' the vertical supports of the same.
To this crank-shaft K are secured suitable crank-A levers L L', by means of which the necessary rotary motion is given to the shaft to work the entire operating mechanism of the machine. A
Instead of the lever F operating at the side of the sash C, it may be so changed as to operate-on its V center.
The operation is asfollows: Water is placed in the box B. Through the lever F the rubber E is depressed, and the clothes,
"lhe sash C, springs 0 0.', adjustable shaft D, lever F, and rubbers' E E', when the latter is worked as shown, the whole` being so combined and arranged as to operate substantially as described.
