JOHN S. HEADEN, OF FREEMAN, MISSOURI.
IMPROVEMENT IN WASHING-MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 152,799, dated July 7, 1874 application filed October 25, 1813.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN S. HEADEN, of Freeman, in the county of Cass and State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful I1n provement in ashinglliachine, of which the following is a specification:
Figure 1 is a longitudinal section of my improved washing-machine, taken through the line 00 m, Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a cross-section of the same, taken through the line y y, Fig. 1.
V Similar letters of reference indicate correspoudin g parts.
This invention has reference to that class of washing-machines in which a stationary washboard arranged within a suds-box is combined with sliding heaters or press-boards acting a1- ternately on the opposite sides of the same. My invention, which is specially designed to avoid certain objections existing in machines of this description, consists in combining with the heater or press-board frame a cover in such a manner that the same is free to reciprocate with the beater-frame for preventing spatterin g of the water, the cover being also detachably applied, so as to enable the clothes to be readily inserted and removed.
A is the box of the machine, which is made rectangular in form, and is supported upon legs B of such a length as to raise the machine to a convenient height. The end parts of the box A are covered with stationary boardsO to prevent the water from spattering out when the machine is being operated. l) is a perforated board, the ends of which are inserted in vertical grooves formed in the center of the side boards of the box A. E is a frame about two-thirds the length of the box A, and of such a size as to fit into and move back and forth freely in the box A. To the base-bars of the frame E are attached small wheels or rollers F, which roll along the bottom of the box A, and thus diminish the friction as the said frame E is moved back and forth. To the frame E, near its ends are attached two vertical boards, G, extending from side to side of the box A- H is a detachable cover laid loosely upon the top of the frame E, and to the lower side of which, near its ends, and in such positions as to rest against the outer sides of the upper edges of the boards G are attached two cleats, h, as shown in Fig. 1. The frame E is made of such a height that the end parts of the cover H may pass in beneath the boards O, as shown in Fig. 1. To the middle part of the upper side of the cover H is attached a handle, I, by means of which it and the frame E are moved back and forth.
In using the machine, the frame E is moved to the middle part of the box A, and the cover H is removed. The clothes to be washed are divided into two equal parts, and are placed one part upon each side of the stationary board D between it and the boards Gr, and the cover H is put on. The frame E is then moved back and forth, compressing the parts of the clothes alternately between the boards G and- D, which forces'out the water and dirt, washing them quickly and thoroughly.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent-- In combination with the box A and siationary perforated wash-board l), the reciprocating beater-frame carrying two closed wash boards, G G, and provided with a detachable cover, H, having a handle, I, for reciprocatin g the beater-frame and for raising the cover, as herein shown and described.
