S. A. MORT, OF DAYTON, O'HIO.
llVlPROVED WASHING-MACHINE.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. dl, dated November 22, 1864.
To .all whom it may concern Beit known that I, S. A. MOR-fr, of Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented a new and Improved Clothes-lashing Machine; andl do hereby decla-re that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specication, in which- Figure l is a side sectional view of my invention taken in the line :t Fig. 2; Fig. 2, a plan or top view ofthe same; Iii g. 3, a detached view of one of the end pieces, in which the rollers ofthe concave are iitted, Fig. 4, an edge or end view of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
This invention relates to a new and improved clothes-washing machine of that class in which a concave of rollers is used in connection with a iiuted cylinder.
The object of the invention is to obtain a clothes-washing machine ofthe class speci- 'lied which will perform its work in a thorough manner, and possess advantages over those of a similar kind hitherto constructed, as will be hereinafter set forth.
A represents the suds-box of the machine, which is supported at a suitable height by legs a., and has vertical ends b and inclined sides c c.
B is a square or rectangular frame, secured at one end by screws c to the ends b of the sudsbox. This frame B has a tluted cylinder, O, itted within it, and to one of the shafts of this cylinder a crank, D, is secured, for the purpose of turning the former. This crank may be fitted on either end of the cylindershaft, or both ends of said shaft may be provided with a crank, so that two persons may turn the cylinder it' required.`
'E represents a concave, formed of rollers F, the journals of which are fitted in curved segments G G, two at each end, connected by a hinge or joint, d, at their lower parts, as shown in Fig. 3. Each pair of segments constitutes a semicircle, and they are connected by a spring, H, of india-rubber or other suitable material. These segments G G (each pair) are connected to vertical slides I I,
which are fitted between suitable guides attached to the inner surfaces of the ends o'f the sudsvboX A, and these sides are connected at their upper parts by springs c to the ends of the suds-box. The segments G are connected to the slides I by the pi'ntles j' of the hinges or joints cl of the segments. l
The suds'box A is provided with two partitions, J J, which inclose the concave E, the upper ends of said partitions being nearly on a level with the upper parts of the end rollers, F, of the concave. (See Fig. l.)
The operation is as follows: The suds box A is supplied with a requisite quantity ot' suds, and the frame B being turned over the box A, the iluted cylinder O fits within the concave E. The clothes to be washed are passed between the cylinder C and concave E, and the cylinder O is turned iirst in one direction and then in the other, and the clothes thereby subjected to the necessary rubbing and friction, the concave, in consequence of its rollers being tted in the segments G, connected by springs H, being allowed to yield laterally, while the slides I admit of a vertical downward movement or yielding of the concave. By this arrangement all undue friction on the clothes is avoided, and they cannot be injured during the process of washing, while the pressure of the vcylinder O on the clothes may be graduated as desired by pressing more or less hard in a downward direction on the outer part of the frame B.
The space between the partitions J J contains the suds, which act upon the clothes between the cylinder C and concave E, and it soon becomes foul, while the suds at the outer sides of said partitions will be clean, and maybe used for rubbing portions of clothes clean on a hand-board, K, at one side of the suds box.
I am aware that a tluted cylinder and a concave of rollers have been previously used for the purpose herein set forth, and I do not claim, broadly, such device; but,
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new anddesire to secure by Letters Patentl. The fitting of the journals of the rollers F of the concave in segments G, connected at their lower parts by a hinge or joints, d, provided with springs H, and att-ached to slides I,
which have springs e attached to them7 in arranged relatively with the concave E, subcombination with the lluted cylinder C, placed i stantially as and for the purpose herein set in an adjustable frame, B, all being arranged 1 forth.
to operate in the manner substantially as and S A. MORT. for the purpose herein set forth. WVtnesses:
2. In combination with the above, the par- 1 AUGUSTUS KUHNS,
