UNITED STATES VBATENT OFFICE.
J. B. VINCHELL, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
WASHING-MACHINE.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N0. 49,672, dated August 29, 1865.
To all whom fit may concern:
Be it known that I, J. B. VINCHELL, ot' Chicago, Cook county, State of Illinois, have inventedanew andlmprovedIVashing-Machine; and I do hereby declare that the followingis a full, clear, and exactdescription thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specitication, in which- Figure l is a longitudinal section taken in a vertical plane through the machine. Fig. 2 is a planview ofthe machine. Fig. 3 isa sectional view similar to Fig. l, but showing the rubbing-board over the wash-board and in a position to operate upon the articles. Fig. 4t is a cross-section, showing the mode ot' attaching the rubbing-board to the sides of the wash-box.
Similar letters of reference indicate correspondin g parts in the several iigures.
This invention relates to that class ot' washing-machines which are constructed with a reciprocating rubbing-board that is moved over an inclined wash-board or bed of rolling-surfaces.
My invention consists in a reciprocating rubbing-board which is pivoted by an elastic yielding connection to sliding blocks or bearings that move in slotted guides, in conjunction with an inclined wash-board of rollin g-surfaces and a wash-box having two distinct apartments, as will be hereinafter described.
The invention consists in providing a washbox having two apartments with a hinged wash-board and a reciprocating rubbing-board, as will be hereinafter described.
The invention also consists in providing a hinged wash board having perforations through it with an inclined bottom, said parts being arranged in a wash-box having two independent apartments, as will be hereinafter described.
To enable others skilled in the art to understand my invention, I will describe its construction and operation.
In the accompanying drawings, Arepresents an oblong wash-box, which is mounted upon legs BB, two of which have wheels ac applied to them, for the purpose of enabling a person to move the machine conveniently by elevating the opposite end to the box to which said rollers are applied.
TheboxA is divided centrally into two apartments, C C', by means of a transverse partition, b, which extends up from the bottom of the wash-box a suitable distance to admit of the arrangement ot' a portion of the wash-board over it, as shown in Figs. l and 3.
Two slotted strips, c c, are secured to the sides of the wash-box, over the apartment C, and serve as bearings for the three lowermost rollers, d d d, of the wash-board D, and also as guides for the sliding bearing-blocks e cof the rubbing-board E. These blocks e c are oblon g, and slide in inclined slotsff in the strips c c, and are attached to the sides of arms g got' the rubbing-boardEbymeans ofpivots'i'i. (Shown in Fig. 4.) These pivotst't pass through slots in the slidingblocksce, in which slots india-rubber or metal springs h h are confined for the pury pose of holding the forwardend of the rubbingboard down to its work by an elastic yielding pressure.
The rubbing-board E has a corrugated or roughened surface, as shown in Figs. l and 3, and this board is secured between two side strips, g g, of which the armsgg and the arms g2 g2 form a part. The bottom edges of said side strips are in a plane with thelower edges of the corrugations,so as to protect these edges from undue wear in moving the rubbing-board over the wash-board.
The arms g2 g2 of the rubbing-board are curved upward, and are connected together at their rear ends by means otl a transverse bar, gi", which is grasped by the hands to give the rubbing-board a reciprocating motion.
The rollers d el d d', which constitute the wash-board, are arranged transversely across the wash-box, over the apartment C', and they are also arranged in an inclined plane incliniug toward the partition b, as represented in Figs. l and 3, said plane being parallel, or nearly so, to the plane ot' the slotsf f in the strips c c.
The three rollers d d d have ixed bearings; but the rollers d d are applied to side strips, It k, which are pivoted at m m to the sides of the box A, their rear ends extending back and abutting against the rear end of said box, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3.
Beneath the rollers d d' of the wash-board D is an inclined board, D', the object of which is to conduct thedirtywater which is squeezed from the articles upon the wash-board toward the partition b, and prevent this water from falling upon clean articles which may bein the apartment C.
It Will be seen that the Wash-board D nearly covers the apartment C', and that by hinging a portion ot' this board so that it can be thrown up the part C can be conveniently got at for introducing or removing articles from it.
The articles to be Washed are soaked in the apartment C and removed therefrom one at a time and placed upon the wash-bed D. Here thearticleis subjected to a rubbing and squeezing action by moving the rubbin g-board over it back and forward and applying all the required pressure. When the articles are thus cleaned they are placed into the rinsing-apartment G.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The combination of a reciprocating rubbing-board, E, and wash-board D with a washbox which has two apartments, CC', separated by a division board, b, substantially as described.
2. The arrangement ot' the hinged Washboard D over the apartment C', in combination with the apartment C, substantially as described.
3. The combination ot' ahinged Wash-board, D, and reciprocating rubbin g-board E with the two apartments U C', substantially as described.
4. The construction of oblong bearing-blocks e e With rubber or metallic springs h 7L and movable pivot-connections i i for the arms'ot' the rubbing-board E, snbstantiallly as described.
5. Theinclined board D', in combination with the hinged wash-board D, substantially as described.
