WASHING MACHINE..
No. 338,778. PatentedJan. 5., '1886.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
SAMUEL W. PARSONS, OF YPSILANTI, MICHIGAN.
WASHING-MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 333,778. dated January 5, 1886.
Application filed May 13, 1885.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL W. PARSONS, of Ypsilanti, in the county of Washtenaw and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in VVashingMachines; and I do hereby declare that the 'following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in washing-machines of that class which are provided with an oscillating rubbing-board and adapted to accommodate itself to the thickness ofthe article to be operated upon.
The invention consists in certain constructions, arrangements, and adaptation of parts,
as will be more fully hereinafter set forth, and
specifically pointed out in the claim.
Figure l is a perspective view of my improvement. Fig. 2 is a Vertical central section attached to a tub.
In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, A represents a tub, and B the cover thereof, provided with any suitable means for locking or securing thc same to place.
O represents the metallic frame-work of my device,provided with the feet a,th rough which screws or bolts pass to secure it to the cover. In the head of this framework O is properly journaled the shaft D, upon which is secured by the set-bolt b the mutilated drive-gear E.
F is a pinion, which meshes with the gear E and is secured by means of a set-screw, c, upon the circular portion of the vertical hollow shaft G, the upper end of which has a bearing in the lower face of the lug H, projecting laterally from the head of the framework O upon one side, while the hub of the pinion, being in close proximity to the upper face of the girt I of the frame, prevents such shaft G'from dropping down or becoming displaced. W`ithin this hollow shaft G is placed a coil-spring, J, the upper end of which impinges against the head of the hollow shaft G, while its lower end rests upon the head of the rectangular link K, the lower end of which engages loosely with the socket L of the plate M, whichin turn is rigidly secured upon the upper face of the circular rubbing-board N.
Serial No. 165,293. (No model.)
The lower end of a rod, O, is secured in any convenient manner to the head of the link N, and passes thence up through the coil-spring J and head of the hollow shaft G, projecting through and beyond the lug H, receiving a nut, P, upon its end. By these means the link and spring are retained in their proper positions.
The gear E is provided with asocket, E, to receive a handle, It, by means of which the device is operated.
In practice, where the articles to be washed have been placed in the tub, the cover is closed and secured to place, with the rubbing-board resting upon thel clothes, adjusting itself to varying thicknesses by the link sliding up within the hollow shaft and depressing the spring.
As the method of operating devices of this character is so well known, I do not deem it necessary to enter into a full description thereof.
I am aware of Patent No. 285,411, of 1883, in which the rubber socket embraced the end ofthe oscillating shaft; but in that construction any unevenness in the body of clothes which would serve to tilt the rubber would bind or pinch in the joints, and would tend to rack the shaft-bearings.
In my device I forni a slightlyloose joint between the rubbing-board and the link; but I provide against any wrenching or pinching between the link K and shaft G by the rod O, which, being rigid with said link, passes up through the shaft and out at its upper end. This is an important feature ot' my construction.
lVhat I claim as new is The combination,with the frame C, as Shown, having the perforated lug H, of the oscillating hollow shaft G, journaled in the lower part of said lug and supported by the part I, and having rectangular socket, the link K, fitted loosely in the rubber-board and having a rigid rod, O, which passes up through the lug H, and the spring J, housed in theV hollow shaft G, all arranged for joint operation, as set forth.
SAMUEL IV. PARSONS.
