Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Ap'nf, 1914:.
Application filed November 12, 1913; Serial No. 800,466.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM J. FRANK, a citizen of the United States of America, and aresident of the cityof St. Louis and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clothes-Pounders, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specificationr My invention relates to a clothes pounder, and has for its object the production of a clothes pounder containing a soap receptacle through which water may circulate freely on the downward movement of the pounder, so as to flow therefrom into the chamber of the pounder, from which it is forcibly discharged by again flowing through the soap receptacle, thereby facilitating the formation .ofthe desired soap-suds.
The invention also includes other details of construction, which will be hereinafter described and pointed out in the claim.
Figure I is a vertical section of a clothes pounder,'embodying the features of my invention. Fig. II is an inverted plan view. Fig, III is afragmentary detail view,partly in section, illustratingthe' soap receptacle and the closure therefor, the closure being separated from the soap receptacle.
In the accompanying drawings: A designates the approximately conical body of the.
clothes pounder, said body being open at the bottom and closed at the top by a handle 1, fitted to a tube or socket 2, passing through the upper end of the body A, and extending downwardly to a point below said upper end. A collar 3 is arranged between and soldered to the lower end of the tube 2 and the body A. The tube is also soldered to the upper end of the body A. It will be noted that a very strong and rigid handle receiving structure is produced by securing th tube 2 in this manner. A serlesof sheet metal pocket members 4 are soldered to the wall of the body A, and a small vent 0 enim: 5 is tn mrd in the body at a point a ove the lower-ends of the pocket members.
B designates a soap receptacle arranged tacle consists of a perforated top wall 6, an annular side wall 7, and a perforated ,removable bottom closure 8. The side wall 7 is provided with bayonet slots 9, and'the between and soldered to the lower portions of the pocket members 4:. This soap recep-* closure 8 is formed with lugs 10 adapted to enter the bayonet slots when the perforated closure is applied to the soap receptacle.
When the clothes pounder is forced downwardly in the tub or other receptacle containing clothes and water, air is compressed in the upper portion of the conical body and the water is forced through the clothes. Some of the water rises in the conical body as air escapes through the small vent 5, and
the rising water rushes through the perforated bottom and top walls. of the soap receptacle; and, during the upward strok of the clothes pounder, the air 1111der pressure in the top of the conical body. forces water through the top and bottom walls of the soap receptacle. Owing to the vent 5 admitting air to the pounder chamber to overcome suction therein, and the air under pressure in the said chambers the clothes are readily released when the pounder moves upwardly.
I desire to make mention of the fact that the pocket members 4 being closed at their upper ends and open at their lower ends, opportunity is afforded for'air present in said pocket members being compressed when the pounder is forced downwardly upon the Therefore, the air present in the pocket members affords cushions which act to force the 'clothes away from the pounder when the pounder is lifted from the clothes.
A clothes pounder comprising an approximately conical'body open at the bottom and forming a substantially conical chamber, a series of pocket members extending from the inner face ofsaid body, a soap receptacle in the lower end of said substantially conicalchamber, the top and bottom walls 'of said soap receptacle being perforated to permit the circulation of water" throu h said soap receptacle and into the conica chamber above the perforated top of said soap forcibly discharge the water through thereceptacle, the said conical chamber being soap receptacle,
closed so that the water which passes J FRANK through the top of the soap receptacle will 5 serve as an abutment in compressing the air In the presence of in the 'upper portion of the conical chafiiber, E. K. CLARK, and so that the air compressed therein will E. B. LINN.
