IMPROVEMENT m WASHING-MACHINES.
Specification forming part ofLettsrs Patent No. 159,094. dated January 26, 1875; application filed November 21, 1874.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, SILAS W. H0LB of Catskill, in the county of Greene and of 'N ew York, have invented a new an ful Improvement in Washing which the following is a specific ..Figure 1 is'a vertical section machine, taken through the Fig. 2 is a horizontal section 0 through the llizu y y, Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
The invention is an improvement in the class of washing-machines distinguished by a vertical revolving ribbed cylinder and vertical ribbed or corrugated yielding plates or staves, forming part of the inner surface of the clothescontaining tub or box. The'invention relates to the arrangement of the yielding plates forming the continuous inner wall of the sudsbox, and being freeto move at each end between parallel guide-blocks, as hereinafter described.
A represents the suds-b may be made cy noon, State d use- -Machinc, of ation:
of my improved line at m, Fig. 2. f the same. taken ox or tub, which lindrical or slightly tapering in form.- B is a circle of staves or upright bars, the forward or inner sides of which are icorrugated or ribbed longitudinally, and which two inches, more or less, from the sides of the tub A. The upright bars are held out to their places, and at the same time are allowed to yield to accominodate themselves to the varying thickness of the clothes being washed, by springs O, interposed between them and the sides of the tub A. The bars or stavesB are made to move out and in radially by guide-blocks l), interposed between their ends, or between tenonsformed upon their ends. The lower set jigt'gnide-blocks D. is secured to the bottom orifto the sides of the tub A, and the upper set of guide-blocks D is secured to the sides 'of the said tub A. The bars or uprights B are kept from moving so far zinward as to inner ends of the guide-blocks D. F is a cylinder, seven inches, more or less, in diameter, the lower end of Which is pivoted to the center of the bottom of th'etub A, and to its upper end is attached a shaft, G, which passes out through a hole in the cover H, and to its upper end is attached a bevel-gear Wheel, 1, into the teeth of which mesh the teeth ofa bevel-gear wheel, J, attached to the inner end of the shaft K. The shaft K revolves in bearings L, attached to the cover H and tub A, and to its outer end is attached a crank, M, by means of which the machine is operated. The cover H is made in two parts, the larger part, through which the shaft Gr passes, being permanently attached to the tub A. To the sides of the cylinder F are attached ribs or wings N, to take hold of the clothes and carry them around as the said cylinder F is rotated. The lower hoop, E, is beveled ofi' upon its inner side, and the lower end of the cylinder-F is surrounded with a beveled ring, 0. This construction prevents the clothes from getting in beneath the lower ends of the uprights B and cylinder F, and being wornorcut. The clothes to be washed are put into'the space between the ribbed spring uprights B and the ribbed cylinder F, and are carried around through said space by the revolution of the said cylinder, and are washed clean in a very short time by being rubbed against the being carried around thro Having thus described as new and ent- The combination ofthe v E, guide-blocks l), and sp being arranged to form th of the suds-box, at either end, as
