UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
AMMI M. GEORGE, OF NASHUA, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
IMPROVEMENT IN CLOTHES-POUNDERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 156,562, dated November 3, 1874; application filed September 5, 1874.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, AMMI M. GEORGE, of Nashua, in the county of Hillsborough and State of New Hampshire, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Clothes-Pounders; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to theletters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 of the drawing is a representation of a front view of my clothes-pounder.
This invention has relation to devices for cleansing fabrics by pounding them, wherein an inverted cup-shaped pounder is combined with devices for giving it rapid vertical motion.
The nature of my invention consists in an inverted cup-shaped pounder having a valve in its upper end, and secured to a verticallyreciprocating rod, in combination with a leg A, which wheel engages with the teeth of a larger spur-wheel, c, to which a hand-crank, F, is secured.
By turning. the crank F, the pounder D will receive a rapid reciprocating motion.
The pounder is a conical frustum, and it is provided with an air-inlet valve, d, in its upper end; also, with crossed rods 0 at its lower end. Valve 01 admits airinto the pounder whenit performs its upward strokes, and the rods e materially aid in beating the fabrics.
' G designates a leg, which is secured to a head, g, that receives through it the tubular portion B, and to which head a set-screw, g, is applied.
By means of the leg G the device is supported on the bottom of a tub, and by means of the screw 9 the device is adjustable vertically.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In combination with the clothes-pounder and operating mechanism, as described, the adjustable leg-support G, provided with head 9 and set-screw g, tubular guide B, and handle a, whereby the apparatus is made portable, and, also, adjustable in a waslbtub, sub stantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presenceof two witnesses.
' AMMI M. GEORGE.
