Description
G. D. PERRISQ WASHING MACHINE! (Model Patentgd' May 1, 1883,
INVENTOR:
BY My ATTORNEYS.
WITNESSES: @5 23 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE D. FERRIS, OF MEXICO, MISSOURI.
WAS HING- MACHINE.
SPEOIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 276,795, dated May 1, 1883.
Application filed September 16, 1882. (ModeL) To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE D. FERRIS, of Mexico, in the county of Audrain and State of Missouri, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in \VashingHachines, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to washing-machines in which a perforated cylinder for holding the clothes and means for agitating them is arranged to rotate about a horizontal axis Within a boiler; and the invention consists in a combination, with the boiler, of acertain construction of the rotating perforated cylinder, which is provided with a series of concentrically arranged open -ended and perforated tubes extending across and through the cylinder, substantially as hereinafter described.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.
'Figure 1 represents a vertical section, upon the line y y in Fig. 2, of awashing-machine embodying my invention and Fig. 2, a further vertical section of the same in a plane at right angles to the former figure, and taken as indicated by the line 00 w in Fig. 1.
A is the body of the boiler, which is of square-or rectangular form, and is closed by an arched or semi-cylindrical lid,
G O is the revolving cylinder in which the clothes are put to be washed, and which is supported by axial shafts or side trunnions, b b, in open hearings in the upper edges of the sides of the body A of the boiler. G is a crank by which the cylinder or clothes-holder O U is rotated. The cylinder 0 G is segmentally divided to form a lid or opening and closing section, 0, which is hinged, as at c, to one side of the body 0, to provide for the insertion and removal ofthe clothes, and which is secured by a fastening, d, on its opposite side when closed. This cylinder is of such capacity as to leave a free space for steam and water all around and on opposite sides of it within the boiler. Said cylinder may be made of perforated tin, or it may be made generally close with a series of enlarged apertures, e, in its periphery, arranged in rows parallel, or thereabout, with the horizontal axis of the cylinder.
D D are a series of tubes arranged parallel with the axis of the cylinder, or thereabout, at a suitable distance from the center thereof, and extending across the same in proximity to the periphery of the cylinder and over or opposite the rows of apertures 0. These tubes are open at their ends, so as to form clear passages through the cylinder 0 O, and have a series of perforations, f f, in or around them at different points throughout their length. This arrangement of the perforated tubes D D keeps the center or main portion of the interior of the cylinder 0 0 clear, and facilitates the introduction or removal of the clothes.
When using the washer the body A of the boiler is filled about one-third with water and the boiler placed on the stove, after which the cylinder 0 0, containing the clothes to be washed, is put in its place in the boiler and its lid-section (3 closed and fastened. The lid B of the boiler is then put on, and when the water boils sufficiently hard the cylinder 0 C is rotated by its crank (l for a comparatively short interval, after which the clothes may be taken out and wrung perfectly clean. The open-ended and perforated tubes D D not only permit of a free circulation of steam and water through them and through the clothes, but they turn ortumble the clothes, lifting them up and droppingthem continually without presenting any salient angles to inj ure the clothes, and readily freeing themselves of any old or stagnant water after use; also, by their concentric arrangement, presenting no barrier to the washing of large piecesot' clothing within the cylinder and its inclosingboiler.
Having thus fully described my invention,I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The washing-machine consisting of the water holder or receptacle A, with the cover B, and of the fabric-cylinder (l 0', having peripheral rows of perforations e, and the several concentrically-arranged tubes or turners D, disposed one in each quarter of and near the periphery of the cylinder, said perforations 0 being arranged opposite the tubes D, tially as shown anddescribed, and'for thepurand the said. tubes or turners D opening pose set forth. through the heads of the cylinders and having rows of apertures, f, one row being arranged in each of four sides thereof, said. cylinder being rotatable in said receptacle, and having a crank 0r handle for its operation, substan- GEORGE D. FEBRIS.
