WASHING-MACHINE.
No.179,357, Patented June 27,1876.

JAMES H. SHAUT, OF HORNELLSVILLE, NEW YORK.-
IMPROVEMENT IN WASHING-MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 179,357, dated J une 27, 1876; application filed May 13, 1876.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J. H.'SHAUT, of Hornellsville, in the county of Steuben, and in the State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Washing Machines; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of a washingmachine, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of my machine. Fig. 2 is a transverse vertical section of the same. Fig. 3 is a detailed section of a part of the same.
A A represent the side pieces of my washing-machine frame, connected near the top by a board, B, and near the bottom by a round, 0, which are firmly secured to them. Below'the round 0 is a roller, D, and above said round are two rollers, D D, set a suitable distance apart on a level, and all the three rollers having their journal-bearings in the side pieces A A. The rollers D D and D are surrounded in the center by an endless band or apron, E, which is held in the proper place on the rollers by the bottom roller D, being provided with circumferential shoulders at a, between which said band is placed. Gr represents the large washing-roller, which is corrugated longitudinally, as shown particularly in Fig. 2, and has itsjournals placed in vertical slots in the side pieces A A, one of the journals being extended beyond the frame, and formed or provided with a crank, H. In the slot of each side piece Ais placed a flanged slide, I, to bear down on the journals of the corrugated washing-roller G. J represents a cross-bar,
the ends of which are placed in the slots of the side pieces, on top of the flanged slides I. At each end of the cross-bar J is secured a strap, 1), which passes upward to the top of the cross-bar, and then down through a hole into a recess, 0, formed in said cross-bar from the bottom edge. Within this recess the strap 1) is. fastened to a rubber band, (I, which is held in a groove on the cross-bar B by a pin, f. -Through the bar J, and through the recess therein, are made holes at, for the insertion of a pin, h, which is to pass through the rubber band 01.
It will readily be seen that by changing the pins h in different holes or the tension of the rubber bands 01 is increased or diminished, as required, and hence the pressure of the large washing-roller correspondingly regulated.
This machine is simple, cheap, and durable, and not liable to get outv of order. The band or apron E prevents the clothes from running down between the lower rollers and obstructing the machine.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination of the roller G, slides I I, cross-bar J, having recesses c c, straps I) 1), rubber bands (I 61, pins], and the tension-regulating pins h h, substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
2. The combination of the frame A B O, rollers D D and D, with endless apron E, corrugated roller G, slides I, recessed crossbar J, straps 1), rubber bands d, pins f, and regulating-pins h, all constructed and arranged to operate substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 24th day of April, 1876.
JAMES H. SHAUT. t. s]
