CLOTHES-WRlNGER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 356,641, dated January 25, 1887,
Application filed February 15, 1886. Serial No. 192,034. [No model.)
To 0.15 whom it zit-a3; concern.-
Be it known that I, HENRY O. HOPKINS, J12, a resident of Covington, in the county of Ken ton and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clothes- Wringers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in clothes-wringers, and it consists in the construction and combination of parts hereinafter described and claimed.
Figure 1 represents a broken elevation of my improvement. Fig. 2 is a similar view, showing the rolls relieved of pressure. Fig. 3 isa detail view of the connecting-rod. Fig. 4 is a detail view of one of the end pieces of the frame.
A represents the brackets by which the wringer is attached to a tab.
0 D represent the ordinary U springs. The forward ends of the springs are made of semicircular form,to serve as hearings for the rollershafts E E.
F represents a frame end piece, one of which is placed at each end of the wringer-rolls.
l 2 represent the wringer-rolls.
3 represents a vertical slot in the lower part of each end piece, F, through which the ends of the lower shaft project.
t represents a horizontally-inchned slot in the end piece, F, through which the ends of the upper shaft project.
5 represents flanges which project beyond the peripheries of the rolls.
6 represents a socket, into which the tenon on the cross-piece 7 enters. 7
Each end of the wringer is provided with a similar frame-piece, Reach of which is the counterpart of the other, one being right and the other left hand.
8 represents a; lug projecting out from one side of the end piece, F, and under the upper arm of the spring 0 D.
The rollers and shafts are secured to the wringer in the ordinary manner, and their ends are placed in the slots 3 and 4 and held in position by the springarins G and D, which tend to draw the shafts together and hold th em normally in the position shown in Fig. 1.
When it is desired to relax the pressure of the rolls, pressure is applied to the cross piece 7, pushing it forward, the lower end of the frame-piece F turning on the shaft E, which serves as e fulcrum, and the upper end of the frame-piece F sliding laterally on the shaft E. The slotset, which are slighty inclined from the horizontal, move over the shaft E into the position shown in Fig. 2. During this movement the log 8 strikes the arm D of the spring upon its under side, causing said arm to rise and relieve the rolls from pressure, as shown in said Fig. 2.
hen it is desired to use the wringenpress ore is applied to the crosspiece 7, and the parts are brought back into the position shown in Fig. 1.
This form of construction is very cheap and simple, and it enables the cross'piece which is used to steady the frame end pieces, F.-to be used as handle for pushing the log 8 against the arms of the springs to relieve the rolls.
It will be seen that by giving the slots at a slight inclination from the horizontal the rolls 1 and 2 will he withdrawn from contact when the end frames, F, are tilted forward, as shown in Fig. 2. At the same time the slots 3,which receive the journals of the lower roll, amply provide for the play of the rolls when the wringer is in use, since, when heavy articles pass between the rolls, the spring-arms 0 D will spread, the upper roll and end frames lifting and the lower ends or slots 8 approaching thejonrnals of the lower roll. 7
Having described my invention, what Iclaim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s
1. The combination, with the wringer-rolls and their shafts E E and springs G D. of the framepieces F, having vertical slots 3, which receive the journals of the lower roll. and be ing provided with the inclined slots 4 and logs 8, substantially as described.
2. The combination of the wringer-rolls having shafts E E, the framepieces F, having slots 3 and 4, sockets 6, and logs 8, the connectingiod 7, and the springs G. I), substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have herenntoset my hand.
HENRY G. HOPKINS, JR.
