Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
Y JACOB W. sPANGLEE AND BENJAMIN r. REICH, or YORK, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN WASHING-MACHINES.`
p Specification forming part of Letters Patent No.133,956, dated December 1T, 1872.
To all lwhom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, JACOB W. SPANGLER and BENJAMIN F. REICH, of York, count-y of construction of a washingm achine, simple and effective in operatlon, and which is adapted equally well for washing large or small articles; and it consists in the combination and arrangement of parts which will be more fully set forth hereafter.
Figure l is a plan view of' my invention. Fig. 2 is a section of thesaine.
a represents the box or frame of our machine, which may be of any desired shape or p form, and which rests upon the legs b. In the bottom of this box is placed a' false perforated bottom, c, which inclines downward toward Secured down into it, are two or more springs, d, to which the wash-board is fastened. This board Y consists of a number of thin slats, c, secured I to the blocks h so as to present a rounded surface to the washer, the slats being either faced with rubber or not, just as may be desired.
By constructing the wash-board in this manner it has a free downward and backward movement, is very elastic, and presents a rubbin gsurface which is equally adapted for washing the smallest or largest articles.
Pivoted to the upper part ofthe box are the two levers t', which are united at their outer ends by the handle lc. These levers are adj ustable, and connected to the downwardly-projecting legs l by the casting, Fig. 1, which conssts of a suitable socket, a, for the ends of the levers, and the connecting-bar o, which is fastened to the sides of the legs l by the plate p. To these legs are secured the slats r in a slightly concave form, which form the washer, and which may be also faced with corrugated rubber, if so desired. Attached to the false bottom, and placed just between the washer and the wash-board, is a convex piece, t, of such a shape that these two in their movements just sweep over its surface, and which serves to keep thearticles being washed up to the face of the Wash-board.
By using slats on the washer and wash-board instead of a solid corrugated board we make them much lighter and cheaper, besides being more elastic and better adapted for washing iine articles. By constructing the handle `in the manner described we obtain a greater 1everage and make the washer more easily managed, so that by its slightest movement it produces a most excellent rubbing motion.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new, anddesireto secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-
1. The wash-board, when composed of the elastic slats c and springs d, substantially as described.
2. The false bottom c having convex pieces t, in combination with the washer and washboajrd, substantially as specified.
3. The combination of the levers t', the castings u o p, legs l, and slats r, when combined to form a washer, substantially as shown.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our invention we hereunto ax our signatures this 13th day of November, 1872.
JACOB W. SPANGLER. BENJAMIN F. REICH.

JOHN A. WILSON, D. FULTON.
