`SAMUEL M. ALLEN, OF DILLSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN CLOTHESPOUNDERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 168,206, dated September 28, 1875; application filed 'July 17, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, SAMUEL M. ALLEN, of
' Duisburg, in thevcounty or York and state of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clothes-Founders;
`and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof,
Vreference being had to the accompanying drawings, nand -to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of a clothespounder, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make andpuse the same, I will now proceed to d e-V scribe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, in which;
Figure 1 is-a bottoml View of my yclothessuitable dimensions, through the center of which passes a vertical tube, B, for the recep- 'tion of the handle. A suitable distance above the bottom of thecone, and within the same, is a diaphragm, G, which surrounds the tube B, the lower end of said tube extending on a line with the lower edge of the cone. The diaphragm C is perforated at E, as shown on the drawing, the perforations leading into the airchamber A, which is closed along the rim of the diaphragm C by soldering, so that water j cannot enter the air-chamber except through the perforations E, which are. arranged between the vertical anges D. The latter are p secured to the under side of the diaphragm G,
arranged in concentric circ1es,as shown, and
extending down to the same horizontal plane as the lower edges of the cone and handletube, the latter forming the center onel of the cencentric circular flanges. These anges perform two very important functions in the operation of the pounder. They prevent the clothes from coming up and choking or closing the apertures to the air-chamber, and also form beaters for the clothes.
The diaphragm C, being perforated, allows the water to enter the air-chamber A through the perforations E, whenever the pounder is forced downward in the tub, and the air in A,
being compressed, forms an elastic cushion,"
which reacts on the body of the water-under the diaphragm, giving a more elastic touch to the clothes, so that even the iinest fabric, such as laces, Ste., may be washed by the aid of my pounder without injury. pounder is lifted out of thewater, the water contained in the air-chamber A will run out in a shower through the perforated diaphragm, thereby materially aiding in rinsing the clothes. l
Having thus described my invention, I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United Statesln a clothes-pounder, the combination of the air-chamber A, having perforations E, with the concentric downward projecting Bauges or beaters D, substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own` 1 afx my signature in presence of two witnesses.
