CLARENCE PHILLIS, OF PITTSBURG, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO THOMAS SAWV, OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA.
COMBINED WRINGER, WASHER, AND MANGLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 328,516, dated October 20, 1885.
Application filed February 9, 1885. Serial No. 155,456. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CLARENCE PHILLrs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Pittsburg, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have made a new and useful invention, consisting of a Machine for Washing Clothes, in Combination with a \Vringer and Mangle, which will be readily understood from the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure 1 represents a front elevation of the entire machine, with its wash-tub in vertical section; Fig. 2, a side view of the entire structure; Fig. 3, a top view of the wash-tub and means for operating a scrubber therein.
To put my invention into practice I construct a suitable frame, A, provided with widely-spread feet, whereby it may stand firmlyin a vertical position. This frame I prefer to make of cast-iron, and as a matter of convenience comprises several parts properly bolted together. The upper part, B, supports in suitable bearings two rollers, the one, C, being arranged parallel with and above the other, D, and each formed of such elastic material as is generally employed in the construction of wringer-rolls,and each fitted with an iron spindle, a, fluted in the direction of its length, so as to form four concave sides, I), along and between its journals, whereby the elastic covering constituting the rolls 0 D is securely held and prevented from easily getting loose or out of place. These rolls are geared together at one end and outside of the frame by suitable cog-wheels, E F, and the upper roll, 0, is pressed down toward its fellow roll D, and made adjustable in that respect by means of an arched spring, G, the tension of which is regulated by a centrally-arranged screw, H. To the spindle of the lower roll, D, is affixed a balance-wheel, I, provided with a handle, 66, by which a rotary movement may be imparted to both rolls and in either direction, to admit of their being used after the manner of compression wringers. From each side of these rolls C D a table, K, extends outward, whereby they are adapted to such requirements as will answer the purposes of a mangle.
Across the front of the main frame A, and secured thereto in proper bearings, is a horizontal shaft, L, one end of which is provided with a cog-wheel, N, whereby said shaft may have imparted to it a rotary movement when its cog-wheel is in suitable position to engage that on the spindle of the lower roll, D, or it may be allowed to remain stationary by simply shifting its cog-wheel outward sufficiently far to disengage the same. Affixed to this horizontal shaft L, at or near its middle, is an eccentric, g, surrounded by a yoke, h, from 6 which extends an arm, '5, connecting the same with the wrist-pin Z of a crank, n, on the upper end of a vertical rod, R, supported within a journal box, m, provided with a hinged hasp, e, that will admit of being opened or closed for the introduction or removal of said rod. This journal-box m is rigidly held in proper position by means of long branches t, the extremities of which are bolted to the main frame A, so that the vertical rod R shall extend down into a wash-tub, P, arranged underneath and between the legs of the machine, where it is made fast by two thumb-screws, q. Around the vertical rod R is a spiral spring, S, the tension of which can be increased or diminished by an adjusting-nut, f, whereby a proper degree of pressure may be brought to bear upon a circular and corrugated disk, T, attached to the lower extremity of said rod when within the tub.
The machine as constructed will enable the rolls C D to be used exclusively as a wringer or mangle, as hereinbefore stated; and when the horizontal shaft L is thrown into gear therewith its eccentric y will cause the crank 11 to 8 5 move back and forth at each rotation and bring about a like movement of the corrugated disk T upon any clothes placed in the tub beneath it, and thus act as a washing-machine.
Iam aware that wringers, washers, and man- 0 gles have heretofore been combined in a single machine, and I do not claim such broadly.
I am also aware that various forms of mechanism have been employed for making the connection between the roll operating machinery and the washer, and I would not be understood as claiming more in that particular than is hereinafter set forth in the claim and shown in the drawings. I am also aware that the partially-rotating rubber is old, and that the spring to give an elastic pressure is also old, and I do not claim such; but,
Having briefly described my invention, I c1aim A combined washing machine, wringer, and
mangle consisting of the frame A, having the 5 tables K and set-screws qq for the tub, the
rolls 0 D and gears E F therefor, the horizontal shaft L, having a movable gear upon it for making and severing connection with gearsE F, the eccentric g, fixed to the shaft L, and
10 provided with a projection, i, the rubbingdisk '1, rod R, and spring S, having the adjusting meansf, thecross-rod t, box-m thereon, having the open side closed by section 6, and the crank n, secured to rod R above box m, andconnected to extension 6, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
CLARENCE PHILLIS.
