Description

UNITED STATES PATENT" OEEIoE.
CONVERSE COLE, OF MERIDEN, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
IMPROVEMENT IN WASHING-MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 136,970, dated March 18, 1873.
Nature and Objects of the Invention.
My invention relates to a roller washingmachine, adapted for use in a common wash 7 tub or box, prepared for its reception by the application of suitable socket pieces or seats to the inside of the tub on opposite sides; and my improvements specially consist in the combination of the fluted cylinder, presser-rolls, side rails, and guard plates, whereby the clothes are kept in proper position to receive the rubbing and squeezing action necessary to cleanse them, and are prevented from binding or catching underneath the lower rolls.
General Description.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is a plan or top view of my improved machine applied to a wash-tub. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, partly in section, on the line as m. Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line' 3/ Fig. 2. Figs. 4 and 5 are detached perspective views of the seats or socket-pieces.
A represents a fluted cylinder. fixed upon a shaft, F, mounted in standards D D, and provided with a handle, G. The standards D D are attached to sills O O, which rest, at their ends, in cleats. H and I, the former having sockets J J, to hold-the forward ends of the sills firmly against movement in any direction, and the cleat I, with, notches z i, to support the rear en("s. B B B B are small rolls journaled at their ends in the standards D, and arranged concentrically, or nearly so, around the lower part of the fluted cylinder A. E E are springs, attached at bottom to the standards D, and. at top to straps c e, which encircle the crank-shaft, and cause the springs to hold the fluted cylinder A down upon the rolls B, or to press upon clothes inserted be tween the said fluted cylinder and rolls. C V
O are metallic guard-plates, attached to the faces of the sills O, and projecting upward to about the mid-height of the two outer bedrolls, and in close proximity with the peripheries thereof, so as to prevent clothing from passing under them, or catching and binding between them and the sills G. The cleats l} and I are screwed to the inside of the tub, as represented.
To prepare the machine for use, the forward .ends of the sills G are inserted in the sockets J, and their rear ends rested in thenotches i. The washing is effected by introducing the clothing underneath the fluted cylinder A upon the bed-rolls B, and imparting a reciprocating or rotary movement to the said fluted cylinder by means of the handle G. I
I claiin-- In combination, the guard 0, made of thin plates of non-corrosive metal, the sills G, cleats H I, standards D, springs E, fluted cylinder A, and bed-rolls'B, all constructed and arranged substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
Witness my hand this 3d day of February,
CONVERSE COLE.
