Description
1M5 n. v. HOWELL. J6 v WASHING MACHINE.
HLEDJUNE 301 i919.
"ltlthtttl nnvrn v. HUWELL. or IVTEONROE, new roan.
WASHING MACHINE To aZZ'wlwm it may concern Be it known that l, Davin V. HOWELL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of. Monroe, in the county of Orange and State of New York, have invented new and useful improvements in Washing Machines, of which the fol-lowing is aspecification.
This invention relates to dish washinginachines andhas for itsprimary object the-provision of a means whereby the cleansing agent employedmay be. so agitated as to cleanseor washthe dishes 'as a result of the contact of the cleansing agent with the dishes. i
A further object of the invention is topro:
viole in a machine of the above mentioned character a means whereby the dishes may be easily and quickly raised or loweredfroin the receptacle adapted to receive the cleansingagent. 1 i
A further object of the invention is to provide a machine of the above mentioned character which is simple in construction, inexpensive tomanufacture and reliable in operation.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description taken in" con nection with the accompanying drawings.
In the drawingsforming a part of this specification wherein like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same, y
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device embodying my invention, and,
Figure 2 is a detail view of the operating mechanism employed, certain elements there of being shown in section.
i In the drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred form of my invention, the numeral 5 indicates a preferably cylindrical receptacle adapted to receive therein a suitable quantity of cleansing agent such as hot water having a suitable amount of soap in solution to facilitate the removal ofdirt or grease from the dishes desired to be cleansed. To the sides of the receptacle 5 there is suitably secured a vertically disposed U-shaped supporting member 6, the supportingmember 6 having its: depending arms secured to the receptacle 5by means of rivets or bolts as shown at 7. Upon the ll-shaped member 6 substantially intermediate its ends there is disposed a second ti -shaped yoke 8 having its ends bent sub stantially to right-angles and secured to the application filed June 30, 3919. serial No. ?,6U i.
U-shaped member 6 by means of riv'ets or the like as shown at 9. Within the vertically disposed til-shaped member 8 there is ournaled a rotatable shaft 10 provided with collars 11 which are adapted to prevent longitudinai movement of the h ft 10 ithi its supporting yoke The shaft 10 is extended an appreciable distance and is provided at its extension with a crank or handle 12 by means of Which rotation is imparted to the shaft ll). 'lothe shaft 10 there is suitably secured a bevel gear which meshes with a relatively small bevel igear 1d, the bevel gear i l being provided on its un-. der face with a'chan'nel or groove 15 adapted to receive a plurality of ballbearings 16 arrangedwithin a groove 1? of a supporting base 18 which. is suitably secured torthe U- shaped member 6 substantially intermediate the angularly bent portions of the Ill-shaped yoke 8. To the gear 14 there is centrally secured a depending shaft 19 which projects downwardly through the supporting base 18, and a relatively large opening provided in the [ti-shaped member 6, the relatively large opening being indicated by the numeral 20. To the lower endof the shaft 1) there is connected a chain 21 constructed of preferably square links. To the chain 21 there is connected a book 22 which is adapted to receive a plurality of preferably wire handles 23 connected as clearly shown in Figure 1 to the corners of a wire gauze basket 24, the basket being preferably rectilinear in shape as is shown in Figure 1 and adapted to rotate Within the receptacle 5 when power is applied to the handle 12.
in use, the dishes which are to be cleansed are placed within the basket or receptacle 24: which is then hung upon hook 22 and suspended within the receptacle. 5 which carries therein a suitable quantity of water or other cleansing agent to completely cover the dishes. The gear 13 is then rotated by the means hereinbefore described, causing rotation of the shaft 19 through the instrumentality of the gear carried thereby. VVhen-the shaft 19 is rotated the basket or receptacle 24: carrying the dishes therein is likewise rotated, agitating the cleansing agent within the receptacle 5 and due to the swift movement of the dishes through the cleansing agent the dirt or grease is removed therefrom. It might be necessary to rotate the basket 24 alternately in opposite directions to produce the mostsatisfactory cleansingeffect. The construction of the device as a whole is-oi'f such a nature, as is apparent, as to permit alternate, opposite rotation of the basket 24.
t is apparent that because of the peculiar situation of the ball bearings 16 the weight of the dishes within the receptacle or basket 24: is supported thereby and consequently the machine as a whole is more easily operated by hand than would otherwise be possible. It is further apparent that the ball bearings 16 confined between the gear 14 and the supporting base 18 are protected from dirt or grit because of the depending flange carried by the gear 14, the flange being clearly shown in Figure 2 and adapted to snugly fit the peripheral edge of the supporting base 18. The depending flange not only serves as a means for protecting the ball bearings 16 from dirt or grit but serves further as a means for confining any desired lubricant between the gear 14 and the supporting base 18, the lubricant being used as a means for lubricating the ball bearings 16 and the depending shaft 19. An important advantage of the flexible connec tion between the hook 22 and the shaft 19,
is that by means thereof, shocks upon the dishes in the receptacle 24 are prevented,
should power be suddenly applied tending to rotate said basket;
It is to be understood that the term of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that Ylll'lOllS changes in the shape.
sine and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure and rotect by Letters Patent of the United btates, is:
A. dish washing machine comprising a receptacle, a supporting member secured thereto, a. yoke supported by said men'iber above the receptacle a gear rotatably mounted in said yoke, means whereby said gear may be actuated, a second gear rotatably mounted on said supporting member and meshing with the first gear, a shaft depending from said second gear, a hook having a flexible connection with the lower end of said shaft, and a torannnous receptacle having supporting means positioned to engage said hook.
