WASHING- MACHINE.
SPECIPICA'I'ION forming part of Letters Patent No. 313,318, dated March 3, 1885.
Application filed July 26, 1853.
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JAMES GILLEsPIE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lincoln, in the county of Logan and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in \Vash'ing-Machines,of which the following is a specification, to wit:
This invention relates to an improvement in washing-machines; and it consists in certain peculiarities of construction and arrangement, substantially 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 accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is an end elevation. Fig. 2 is a cross-section. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section, and Fig. 4 is a detail view of one of the boxes.
A represents a cylindrical box or casing, consisting of solid end pieces connected by stay-rods a a and covered with zinc a, and is formed with a hinged cover or lid, A, having suitable means for fastening it shut. This casing is mounted upon legs A as represented in Fig. 1, and is-thus raised to a convenient height for operation. Each end of the cylindrical casing A is provided with a removable section, a. sliding in vertical grooves in the end pieces and carrying the upper half of a two-partjour11al-box, b, the lower side of which is secured to the end of the casing. In these boxes I) b rest thejournals b b of a slatted cylinder B, also having a hinged cover, B. This cylinder is but little smaller than the interior of the outer casing, and the slats I) l) are beveled alternately upon the inner and outer sides, as represented in the section in Fig. 2. One of the journals 1) extends entirely through the box I), and is provided on its outer end with a crank, B", by which the slatted cylinder is revolved.
Within the cylinder B is a roller, 0, formed and has its end squared for the attachment of a (N0 model.)
crank, when desired. Ordinarily this roller is held stationary by a metal strap, 0 secured upon the outer end of the main casing, and engaging the squared end of the pin when the crank is removed. The journal-pins G are preferably formed with a screw-thread or a feather upon their points, so that when driven into the end of the roller they will be prevented from accidental displacement during the use of the machine.
In operation, the clothes to be washed are placed in the slatted cylinder and hot water poured into the outer casing. When the outer lid or cover is closed, the heat and steam are all confined within the machine, and as the cylinder is revolved the steam and heated water are effectually forced through the clothes, cleansing them much more rapidly and thoroughly, as well as much easier, than by the ordinary mode of rubbing upon a board, and
does not wear or otherwise injure the garments. The alternate beveling of the slats upon the surface of the revolving cylinder not only enables this to be more easily operated, but serves to force the currents of water through the cylinder and its contents. The inner fluted or corrugated roller may be revolved in an opposite direct on to the cylinder by detaching the metal strap which holds it and replacing it with a crank, and the operation of the cylinder and roller in opposite directions effects a cleansing of the garments much more rapidly.
Having thus fully described my invention,
