NATHAN BOOTH, OF CHEsHIHn, CONNECTICUT.
` i lMPRovEMENT In WASHING-MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letterslatent No. 115,272, dated May 30, 1871.
To'all whom it may concern.:` i
Be it known that I, NATHAN BOOTH, of
`Cheshire, in the county of New Haven and State of (lonnecticuahave invented a new and `Improved VVashing-Machine; and I do hereby declare that thefbllowing is a'full, clear, and
exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art `to make and use the i same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part `of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements in washing-machines; and it consists in a roller or shaft covered `with sponge, and a tinted or ribbed roller arranged together in a case or tub for passing the clothes-between them, the
tinted or ribbed roller being so arranged as to compress the sponge at the same time that it `presses the clothes upon it, in such a manner that the water is forced through the clothes in to be very efficient in' clean- Figure lis a longitudinal sectional elevation through the rollers and the tub; and Fig. 2 is i a transverse'section ofthe rollers; also a sectionofthetub-` y,
A represents a shaft, or it may be a small j roller, arranged horizontallyT in `bearin gs of any kind in a tub, B, and having a disk orflange,
` `11],"ateach end, one being secured by a key, screw, or other means by which it may be readily detached; and between these disks the roller is provided with a sponge, C, wholly surrounding it, being applied, preferably, by
making a hole through the sponge and passing the'shaft through said hole 5 but it maybe appliedi-in any approvedway, whereby a regular cylindrical covering of sponge can be ap-V plied, the pieces of sponge being selectedof uniform size for the purpose. They need not be made fast to theshaft in any other way, as they are'not required to be turned by it, nor to turn, it being immaterial whether they turn on the shaft or the latter turns with it. D is `aroller of Wood, mounted abovethe shaft A,
parallel with it, and provided with the long ribs or cogs E, which form a deeply-tinted surface. The said ribs have recesses F formed in the sides, which are attached to theroller for making slots, through which the water may escape when the sponge is forced up into the grooves as they pass over the sponge, to prebearings G, and one end is provided witha crank for turning it. H represents elastic or other cords or straps stretched across the sponge between the disks B to be used for holdin g the clothes to the sponge-roller to carry them between it and the tinted roller, one being lifted, and the clothes, or one end thereof, tucked under it, so as to be held when the cord drops back.
The piece ofclothing to be washed will wind around the sponge-roller and the Water will be forced through it back and forth by the contraction and expansion ot' the sponge, being forced through when the sponge expands by the capillary attraction, which takes up the water rapidly, and when contracted by the expressing ofthe Water by the tinted roller. This action is such that in the case of a long piece of goods, as a sheet or the like, which winds several times around thespongeroller, the inner layers or plies will be Washed as eifectuall y as the outer ones.
Having tnus described my invention, I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters P atent- l. The combination of the tinted roller D and the sponge'roller C, substantially as specified.
Y 2. Thefcombination, with the sponge roller, of the cords or straps H, substantially as specilied.
3.' The slots F, between the ribs and the surface of the roller D, in combination with the roller C, substantially as specified.
" f The above specication of my invention signed by `me this 13th day of March, 1871. Witnesses: NATHAN BOOTH.
