UNITED STATES PATENT IMPROVEMENT IN WASHING-MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 179,336, dated June 27, 1876; application filed April 25, 1876.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS MUIR, of An des, Delaware county, New York, have invented a new and Improved Washing-Machine,
fected, and by the use of two-reversed conical rollers the clothes are made to pass straightly through the rolls.
Figure l is a plan view, and Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional elevation, of my improved machine.
Arepresents the tub; B, the flu ted or grooved roller extending across it in the upper part, and
being fixed in bearings in the sides, and having a hand-crank, D, for turning it. E E represent the conical rollers located on the fluted roller, and pressed down on it by a Weighted lever, F, to which the bearing-blocks G are attached by rods H and the cross-bars I.
The weight can be shifted along the-lever to vary the pressure, as may be desired.
The surface-speed of the rollers E varies according to their taper, so as to efl'ect a rubbing action on the clothes, thus makingthe machine very efficient,notwithstanding its simplicity.
, Having thus described my inventiomlclaim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent The combination, in a washing-machine, of the vertically-adjustable conical rollers E with the fluted bottom roller B, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
THOMAS MUIR.
