JET TYPr'wAsHER Filed Aug. 27, 1953 FIGZ INVENTOR.
ORLO. c. NORTON BY United States Patent JET TYPE WASHER Orlo C. Norton, Erie, Pa.
Application August 27, 1953, Serial No. 376,938
Claims. (Cl. 68-181) This invention relates to washing machines and more particularly to jet washing machines for washing clothes, fruits, vegetables, and machine parts. This application is a continuation in part of application Serial Number 50,130, now Patent Number 2,650,708 on September 1, 1953.
In washing machines made according to previous designs and with which I am familiar, the washer was usually of a complicated design and required some sort of external power for its operation. This type of washer was expensive to manufacture and inconvenient to use.
It is, accordingly, an object of my invention to overcome the above and other defects in prior washing machines and it is more particularly an object to provide a washing machine which is simple in construction, economical in manufacture and cost, and simple to use.
Another object of my invention is to provide a washing machine wherein the pressure of fluid from a supply source provides the actuating force to circulate the fluid therein for operating the washing machine.
Another object of my invention is to provide a washing machine wherein a simple container is connected to a fluid jet and the fluid jet prevents the parts contained in the washer from being discharged through the outlet of the washing machine.
Another object of the invention is to provide a washing machine wherein the fluid coming through the inlet prevents clothing and parts being washed therein from being discharged through the outlet.
With the above and other objects in view, the present invention consists of the combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes may be made in the form, size, proportions, and minor details of construction without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 shows a washing machine according to my invention; and
Fig. 2 is a side view showing the details of the discharge opening on the Washing machine according to my invention.
Now with more specific reference to the drawing, I disclose in Fig. 1 a washing machine 1 made up of a container 2 having generally cylindrical side walls 3 and a bottom 40 curved at the corners 4 and extending upwardly in the center at 5.
The material of one side of the washer about half way between the top and bottom at 6 is struck outwardly to provide an outwardly extending hook at 7 having the ends thereof rolled back at 8 to form a smooth surface. Likewise, the bottom portion of the struck out portion at 9 is rolled over. The upper edge of the container at 10 is likewise rolled over to form a smooth surface.
ice
The hook 7 has a hole 11 formed therein and the jet nozzle 12 is fitted in the hole 11. The jet nozzle 12 has a flange 13 and a serrated portion 14 for receiving a hose 15. The end of the nozzle 12 remote from the hose 15 is threaded at 18 to receive a pawl or nut 19. The end of the jet 12 may be beveled at 20 to form a neater design of device.
The aperture 21 through the nozzle 12 is tapered inwardly at 22 and has an outlet jet passage 23 from which the liquid is discharged.
When the hose 15 is connected to a supply of fluid, the pressure of the fluid will discharge fluid in a stream indicated by the arrows 24 and the stream of fluid will form a circulation in the bottom of the container 2.
n It will be noted from the direction of the arrows that the incoming jet causes the clothes 26 being washed to circulate in the washing machine 1, thereby causing any solid material to be removed therefrom. The incoming fluid circulates in a more or less spiral path in the center of the machine 1 and overflows over the rolled edge 9. The jet prevents any clothing from flowing out through the overflow outlet. The bottom of the container 2 is curved upwardly in the center and the corners are curved at 4 to facilitate the flow of the fluid inside the container 2.
In the foregoing specification, I have set forth the invention in its preferred practical forms but I am aware that the structure shown is capable of modification within a range of equivalents Without departing from the invention which is to be understood is broadly novel as is commensurate with the appended claims.
The embodiments of the invention in which an exelusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows:
1. A washing machine comprising a container having upwardly extending sides terminating at the upper edge thereof in a rim, a bottom, an opening in one side of said container a substantial distance above the bottom thereof, said opening being disposed below the lowest point of said rim, a nozzle, and means attaching said nozzle to said container for directing a jet of fluid under pressure across said opening, through said opening, in close proximity to the lower edge of said opening, into said container and toward the bottom of said container, the fluid collecting in said container and overflowing through said opening, said nozzle discharge adapted to urge clothes in said container away from said opening.
2. The washing machine recited in claim 1 wherein the opening in the container side is more than half way from the bottom of the container to the top thereof.
3. The washing machine recited in claim 1 wherein the center of the bottom of said container is convex inwardly whereby the circulation of fluid in said container is facilitated.
4. The washing machine recited in claim 3 wherein the edges of said opening are rolled to form a smooth surface therearound.
5. The washing machine recited in claim 1 wherein said nozzle is disposed below the lowest point of said rim.
