Applicatcn` led March 24, 1924.
My invention relates to improvements in gearing, especially adapted for use in conjunction with spherical or globular washing machines, the object of the invention being to provide a system of gearing so constructed and arranged as to be guarded to prevent injury to the operator of the machine.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
rlhe invention consists in the combinations and arrangements of parts hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention will be bestl understood by reference to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specilication, and in which,
Fig. 1 is an end view of a washing machine equipped with gearingl embodying the invention,
F ig. 2 is an enlarged section taken on line 2 2 of Fig. 1,
Fig. 3 is a section taken on line 3 8 of Fig. 1.
The preferred form of construction as illustrated in the drawings comprises a driving gear 4 the body of Which is made solid and convex in form, in the general form of a bowl. rIhe gear 4 is secured to the projecting end 5 of a shaft projecting from a spherical or globular washing machine casing 6, said shaft being the operating shaft of said washing machine. The conveXity of the gear 4 is arranged to correspond with that of the casing 6 so that said gear fits over and partially around the adjoining portions of said casing. The periphery 7 of the gear is provided with the usual spur gear teeth as shown and this periphery is enclosed in an annular housing 8 secured to casing 6 by means of brackets 8. By this arrangement it will be noted that the gear teeth of the gear 4 are entirely protected and guarded so that it is impossible for the operator to become entangled in said gear teeth and injured thereby. The convex form of the body of the gear also serves as a guard to prevent the entry of the hands or fingers between the gear and the adjoining edges of the housing. This convexity of the gear also serves to save space by means of the arrangement showin.
Serial No. 701,417.
The gear 4 is arranged in mesh With a similar but smaller gear 9 enclosed in an annular housing 10 formed integral with the housing 8. Gear 9 is secured to a shaft 11 and meshes with a pinion 12 enclosed in housing portion 13 and driven by shaft 14. By this arrangement it will be observed that the entire train of gearing is fully enclosed and guarded so as to prevent accidents.
Whilc I have illustrated and described the preferred form of construction for carrying my invention into eiiect, this is capable of variation and modification without departing from the spirit of the invention. l, therefore, do not wish to be limited to the precise details of construction set forth, but desire to avail myself of such variations and modifications as come Within the scope of the appended claims.
Having described my invention what l claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. rl`he combination with a spherical casing of a shaft projecting from said casing; a gear secured to the projecting end of said shaft, the body of said gear being convex in form corresponding to the convexity of said casing; gear teeth on the periphery of said gear; and an annular housing enclosing the periphery of said gear, substantially as de scribed.
The combination with a spherical body; of gearing comprising gears arranged on the spherical body, one of said gears having a body portion of convex form extending partially around the spherical body; and annular housings enclosing the peripheries of said gears, substantially as described.
3. rlhe combination with a spherical member; of a driving gear supported thereon, said driving gear being convex in form corresponding to the conveXity ofthe spherical member; an annular housing enclosing the periphery of said driving gear, the convex ody of said driving gear projecting through the center of said housing, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof l have signed my name to this specification. f
JAMES F. EVERETT.
