MORGANL. GROVER, OF LAVALLE, WISCONSIN.
WASHING-MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patentl No. 327,159, dated September 29, 1885,
Application filed October 2, 1884.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, MORGAN L. GRovER, of Lavalle, in the county of Sauk and State of Visconsin, have invented a new and Improved Vashing-Machine, of which the following isa full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in that class of Washinginachines in which a rocking clothes box or tub is provided and the clothes are washed and cleaned by rocking the said tub, Vall as hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.
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 iigures.
Figure l is a longitudinal elevation of my improved washing machine, parts being broken out and parts in section; and Fig.2'is a cross sectional elevation of the same on the line :v x, Fig. I.
A box or tub, A, having segmental sides, has a curved bottom, B.
The box Ais held to crossed braces C, unitbars, E, uniting the ends of the rockers, and provided with upwardly or horizontally projecting handles E', either straight or curved. The box or tubA is thus held between two rocking frames, with which the said tub or box can be rocked.
The top F of the box A is provided with a tight-fitting cover, F', and directly below the cover a transverse shaft, G, is journaled in the box, from which a swinging beater extending across box A is suspended.
The beater is formed of a bottom bar, a, having the cross-section of a truncated cone, a cylindrical bar, I), above the bar c, an oval bar, c, above the bar b, and a diamond-shaped bar, d, at the top of the bars, decreasing in thickness, size, and cross-section from the bot- (Model.)
tom to the top. They are suspended by a rope or cord, l, from the shaft G.
In place of the bars described, bars of any other desired crosssection may be used.
Transverse boards B', having grooves IL, are secured on the inner surface of the bottom B at the middle and ends. The bottom bars ot' the beater H are grooved longitudinally on all sides.
Spaces B2 are formed between the under sides of the boards B and the in nersn rface of the bottom, through which spaces the water passes, thus causing an under current, which keeps the clothes loosened and throws them against the grooves at the end ot' the box.
The clothes are placed in the box or tub A with asufficient quantity of hot soap-snds,the cover F' is closed tightly, and the box A is rocked. The clothes are thrown from one end of the same to the other, and are beaten by the swinging beater H.
The clothes are cleaned very rapidly, and comparatively little power is required for operating the machine.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure 4by Letters Patent- 1. In a washing'machine, the combination, with the box or tub A, of the rockers D, the top bars, E, and the braces C, uniting the top bars and rockers, and to which braces the box A is secured, substantially as herein shown and described.
2. In a washing-machine, the combination, with the box or tub A, of the transverse grooved boards B, secured on the inner surface of the bottom, theswinging flexible beater H, and rockers secured to the tub or box, substantially as herein shown and described.
MORGAN L. GBOVER.
