MOTOR SUPPORT FOR Application filed June 1,
This invention relates to washing machines.
More particularly, the invention relates to means and manner of supporting a motor in a cushioned or yielding relationship to the framing of a washing machine structure, and incidentally, to "means and method of rendering the motor and its connecting members which constitute an integral unit when assembled for use, susceptible of ready re moval as an integrated unit.
The invention includes the provision of a motor support, suspension members therefor, adjustable positioning members and also, generally, to means for simple placement and removal from the operative relationship with washing machine parts.
Referring to the drawings Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a washing machine, showing among other things, a motor and means for attaching same to a washing machine framing;
Fig. 2-is a perspective View, including a diagrammatic showing of framing members and also showing a motor, its support and attaching connections of the motor support with the framing;
Fig. 3 is a detail view, partly in section, showing the manner of attaching hanger bars to a framing member.
Further referring to the drawings, 10 is a tub or container; 11 is a circular framing member; 12 is similarly a circular framing member; 13 are reach members serving as legs for the frame, and 14 is a crossframing member. 15 is a motor which, in practice, serves to effect movement of certain operating parts of a washing machine.
Referring particularly to Fig. 2, 16 is a support, to which motor 15 may be attached by the means shown, or any other suitable means, such motor and support constituting an integral unit adapted for suspension in conjunction with the washingmachine framing. To the motor unit, and as shown, to motor support 16, are attached suspension bars 17 which are laterally deflected at their upper ends to form attachment fingers 18, the same being perforated, as at 19, to permit entrance of key members 20. 21 are reinforcing bars adapted to contribute to the maintenance of bars 17 in permanent vertical relationship to support 16. Framing mem- WASHING MACHINES.
1926. Serial N0. 113,068.
Special attention is called tothe detachable unit organization of the motor, and its support with respect to the washing machine framing as a unit, and to the simple means for relating the motor unit to the framing, whereby detachment of the former may be quickly and readily effected by the simple removal of key members and a nut member, thereby contributing materially to convenience of assembly and separation, as between said motor and framing, as obviously desirable and serviceable in Washing machine structures.
WVhat I claim is:
1. In a washing machine, a frame mem ber, means for suspending a motor from said frame, said means including a motor supporting block, a motor secured to said block a bracketattached at one end to said block, the other end of said bracket being provided with an offset T-shaped portion, the leg of which is detachably mounted in the frame to provide a pivotal support for the block and motor unit, and means for holding said motor supporting block in various positions of angular adjustment, said holding means comprising a rod pivotally connected to the block at one end, the other end of said rod being threaded, the threaded end of said rod extending through an opening in the frame, and means on the threaded end of the rod for limiting the movement of the rod through the opening in one direction, the rod being free to move through the opening in the opposite direction. s
2. In a washingmachine', a frame member provided with an opening therein, means for suspending a motor from said frame, the said means including a substantially horizontal supporting block, a motor secured to the lower surface of 'said block, a vertically eX-- tending bracket having the upper end bent at right angles to the mam body portion thereof and extending through the opening in the frame member, means for preventing the ,withdrawal of the end of the bracket from the opening, and means for holding said motor supporting block in various positions of angular adjustment, the said holding means including a rod pivotally connected to the block at one end, the other'end of said rod being threaded, a depending member secured to the frame, and having an opening therein, the threaded end of said rod extending through said opening, and means on the end of the rod to limit the movement of the rod through the opening in one direction, the rod being free to move through the opening in the opposite direction.
'In testimony whereof I have hereunto aifixed my signature.
