Specification ibi-ming 'part of Letters Patento. 395609,' dated August 15,5 1563;' aniedated Y March 13, 1ste. l s
Beit known that I, JAMES YOUNG, ofthe city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Machine for Dyeing, Bleaching, and Washing; and I' do hereby Adeclare that the following isla full,
clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this speciiicatiomin which- Figure l represents a plan or `top view of my invention; Fig. 2, a transverse -vertical section of the same, the line .fr w, Fig. 1, indicating the plane of section.v Fig. 3 is an inverted plan of the hammer, which forms the principal working part-of my invention. Fig. 4v is an elevation of one oi' the rollers detached.
.Similar letters of reference indicate correspondingvparts in the several gures. p. 4 v The oo )eet'of this invention 1s to furnish to. hatters and dyers a machine for beating 1n their dyes, and save time and labor, and to bleachers a machine to clear and wash the goods of chemicals and acids, and replace the india-rubber tubes, or of bristles or of any `other suitable material, through which the water'is conducted while the same acts on the This hammer is operated by a treadle, and its stroke is adjustable by different-shaped stirrups, -according to vthe quantity and quality ot' the clothes to be l acted upon. lSaidvhammer is also provided.
with a self-acting` cut-off, which stops the discharge ofthe water through the :hammer as soon as the latter rises from the goods or clothes, and which allows the water to ow as soon as the hammer descends.V The goods or clothes are placed on an endless apron, which moves over corrugated rollers of glass, and the liquid used for dyeing or bleaching, or water for washing or rinsing, is taken from diti'ercnt tanks, which are intended to be filled with the various iiuids to be used in dyeing or bleaching, or when used for family wash- 4ing, one with soapsuds and one with hot water, or any other liquid that maybe found to be of advantage; and thesetanks may be subdivided into more apartments `to hold other fluids for dyeing, bleaching, or washing purposes, `"the discharge of said liquids being regulated by a series of faucetsthat are ina Vconvenient position to be reached by tl1eop-` erator. r
To enable those skilled in the art to make and use-my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation with reference to the drawings.
The table'A, which supports the working parts of my invention, rests onVv four legs, B,
which are united near to theirbottom ends, and
strengthened by rods c. The top of the table is divided into two parts,b c, one part, b, to
support the subdivided tank C and. the other part, c, to support theendless apron D and the t wringer E. 'The tank C rests on standards d, 'l Y and it is divided into aseries of compartments, l, ef g, to contain'different sorts of liquids to be used during the operation o't' dyeing, `bleach- 4 king, or washing. From this tank the liquid is conducted through a flexible pipe, F, to the -hammer G, and each compartment' of the v tank is provided with a separate stop-cock, e'-
f g', so that its contents ,can be cutoff or let l The stem of the ha-mmeris partially hollow, s0 that the liquid from the r tank can pass through it to the head of the on at pleasure.
hammer, and its solid rear end is pivoted'to,
the upper end of aworking-beam, H, to which' an oscillating motionis imparted by means of a treadle, I, the operation of which is assisted by a flywheel, J. The stroke of said working-beam is adjustable by vmeans of a series of holes, h, in its lower end, which allow -Y l` .of changing the connectingrod t'. By the action of the working-beam a reciprocatingmotion is imparted to the hammer, and the amount `ofmotion imparted to the hammer depends upon thestroke of the-working-beam' H. Therearcndof the stem of the hammer l is guided' by a grooved roller, j, which is movedin a longitudinal direction on an arbor, k, so that it matches with one or the other of a series of stirrups, L, that are secured to the rear end of Vthe stem of the hammer. The
arbor Iaof the guide-roller j may be so ar. l ranged that it can be raised or 1owered,and the stir'rups lare of different form, and 'they` arel soshaped that during` a portion of its stroke the' hammer is raised higher or lower, l according to the' position of the guide-rollcrj. The head ci the hammer G consists of' a me$ a sacos tallic case, m., tilled with a number o f indiarubbertubes or with bristles, and it is sea ranged that the liquid, which ilows from vthe tank through thehollow stem of said ham'v mer discharges thrcngh the india-'rubber tubes or through or between the bristles contained in the case m. moved by the action of the working-beam H,
sweeps over the endless apron-D,-which is ar.
ranged on the front part, c, ofthe' table A. This part c is inclined, so that the liquid used during the operationof washing, dyeing, or ";eieae'hiig discharges over tneside of'th' tafM rollers, q, which have their bearin gs and 'which rotate freely in the upright lugs or flanges fr. The shape of these rollers is such as represented :in Fig. e, and for the sake of cleanliness v l intend to construct the same of glass in preference to 'anyether material, though zinc, hard rubber, or seasoned wood can be also used as an equivalent, The goods or clothes to be dyed, bleached, or washed are spread piece after piece on the apron'D and under thehammer G; and the rollers are made corrugated in order to hold the goods in place, also tosecure the friction necessary te remove the soil or stain or chemicals, and also to equalize the action of the hammer on such`portions of the clothes Wlwhiclrwh en supportedfby. cylindrical roller-s,
would be liable to'fbe acted upon by the ham.y
mer with more force than desirable. The apron is moved along through under the hammer by means of a crank, s, attached to the end of the axle of the roller p, said crank being op! erated with one hand, while the other hand is f engaged in keeping the clothes or goods on the apron in proper position. The speed with which the apron D is movedvdepends entirely upon the nature ofA the particular piece of goods to be dyed, bleached, or washed, and each portion of said piece can be exposed to the action of the hammer until it is perfectly clean, 85e. sary waste of liquid, the hammer G is provided with a cut-oli', L, which is operated automatically by the motion of the hammer itself. Said cutoff consists vof a stop-cock,- the handle t of which entends into an arched guidepiece, u, which rises from the top of a standard, taand which in of such a. shape that itcauses the stop-cock to open and to allow a freel discharge of the liquid whenever the hammer descends on the apron D, but as soon as the hammer rises, through the action of the stirrups l, the liquid is cut oit'. By these means o the liquidv is allowed to iiow only during that portionof the stroke of the hammer when `the latter'acts on the goods or clothes to be dyed, bleached, or washed-that is, only at such intervals when the liquid is needed. After the goods or clothes are thoroughly dyed, bleached,

rubbedeand beaten until it is perfectly clean.
lWith, ordinary washing-machines all the parts of the clothes, the clean as wellas the dirty, are equally acted upon, and the operator is unable to see when' the dirt from a certain piece or part of apiece of clothing is removed it is all guess-work, andat the same time the whole mass of water inthe tub or in the box must be churned or -kept in motion or displaced, which renders the operation of ordinary washing-machines hard and laborious.
