SETH J. MOREY, OF CLAYTON, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN WASHING-MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 161,893, dated April 13, 1875; application filed September 29, 1874.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SETH J. MOREY, of Clayton, Adams county, State of Illinois, have invented certain Improvements in WashingMachines, of which the following is a specification:
My invention consists in forming and placin g a water-tight cylinder on a suitable frame, said cylinder being so constructed that the upper part acts as a lid on hinges, through which another perforated cylinder is placed inside the water-tight cylinder, and made to rotate therein by aid of spindles, crank, and iiy-wheel. This inner perforated cylinder is provided with water-tight ends, to which a cross-frame is fastened, to the ends of which again ribs are fastened, running parallel to the sides of the cylinder. In the side of the perforated cylinder is hinged a lid, through which the clothes to be washed are introduced. \Vater of a suitable temperature, mixed with soap-suds, being introduced into the lower part of the water-tight cylinder, will naturally penetrate the clothes in the interior cylinder, which, in being rotated, will cause the clothes to rub against each other and against the frame and ribs, shifting position by each rotation.
In the front of the frame of the machine is placed a reservoir, serving as a wash-tub for soaking and rinsing the clothes.
In order to more fully describe my invention, I refer to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification.
Figure I is a plan view of a washing-machine embodying my invention. Fig. II is a sectional view through line 00 00, Fig. I.
A is the frame; B B, the legs; 0, the watertight cylinder D, the lid for the same, hinged at a, a; E, the perforated cylinder, with lid F, hinged at b I), provided with fastenings c c. G G are the water-tight ends. H H are crossframes, fastened to ends G G; I I, ribs, fastened to the ends of frames H H 5 J J, spindles or axles, fastened in the center of ends Gr Gr, and resting in journals to 10. To spindle J is attached a crank, d; to spindle J, a flywheel, e. fis a hole for introducing a faucet, in order to draw off the water after use from the cylinder 0. g g are holes for placing the legs of a clothes-wringer therein. K is a water-reservoir, with lid h. mis a hole for placing therein a faucet to draw 011' the water.
Having thus fully described my invention, I desire t0c1aim The Water-tight cylinder O, with lid D, in combination with the perforated cylinder E, with lid F, crossframe H, ribs I, spindles J and J, substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore set forth.
SETH J. MOREY.
