Combined Washers and Wringers.
Nvo.l48,58l.

FIG. 1.
rrrcn J. HILTON SVAN, OF NEV CASTLE, DELAWARE.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. ll, dated March 17, 1874; application tiled June 11, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J. HILTON SWAN, of the town of New Castle, in the county of New Castle and State of Delaware, have invented Improvements in'Apparatus for Vashing and Vringing Clothes, ot' which the following is a speciiication:
lily invention relates to the combination of a corrugated or tinted cylinder with two rollers, in such manner that clothing may be washed and wrung by the same machine without passing from the tub.
Figure l is a front elevation ot' a machine embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse section, showing those parts ofthe machine which are to the left of the center of Fig. 1.
A A is the frame of the machine, so constructed as to sit firmly within any ordinary washing-tub. B is the driving corrugated or tinted cylinder, placed in the. center ot' theV frame, its axis revolving in slots and kept in place by concave faced blocks attached to strong spiral springs, which are let in holes bored for that purpose in cach upright or post, the blocks being marked X, and the spring S, in the drawing. Below this is the roller C, used in the process of washing. F is a springbar, for preventing the clothes from followin g 4he roller. D is the rubber roller, used in wringing. This rolleris slpported by a strong spring, QU, being' set or hung in and upon the ends of the spring, which is attached to the blocks V V, which workin ways on the inside ot' each post of the frame as far down as the tace cf the cylinder B. This rubber roller and its supportin g-spring II are moved upward an d downward by means ot' a set-screw, Z, passing through a nut set in the top bar ot' the fra-me, and fastenedto it by means of a block, T, which holds the bolt-head ofthe screw and the bolts fastening the spring. The shape of this spring U is shown by the dotted lines on the face of the blocks V V, and is thus constructed for the double purpose of raising and forcing down the rubber roller D in the process of wringing. E is a feed-guide, for the purpose of readily feeding the clothing between the rollers B and D. I is a guide-board, for preventing; the return of the clothes to the water after wringing, and when not in use'is turned up against the frame.
The clothes to be washed are introduced from the front, as shown in Fin'. 1, and, being grasped by the cylinders or rollers B and C, are by them drawn forward and backward until cleansed, the spiral springs S S, with their appendage X X, permitting the clothing, of whatever thickness, to enter between the rollers, and being of a strength sulicient to furnish the required pressure in order to properly cleanse the articles. The roller or cylinder B, being setin slots, rises and falls in the introduction and removal of the clothin 0. After washing thoroughly, the article is then passed under the guide E, introduced between the rollers B and D, (the roller D being brought down tightly and iirlnly upon the roller B,) bythe operation cf the rollers is drawn ont over the guid e-board l, wrun g, and ready for dryin 0.
rihe supporting-spring Uis constructed sufficiently stron g to present suiiicient resistance to the clothingV between these rollers to wring them perfectly.
The only operating agent in both processes ot' washing and wringing is the crank attached to the center cylinder B, no other being used in giving motion Vto any and all ot the cylinders or rollers.V
I am aware that rollers both tinted and plain have before been used in washing-machines", and, therefore, I do not claim these in themselves but NV hat I claim as my invention is- The combined washer and wringer, constructed substantially as described, with the auxiliary rollers D and C, arranged above and below the main corrugated roller B, respectively, and being provided with thefeed-gnide E and guide-board I, as and for the purposes specified.
J. HILTON SVAN.
