UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
J. C. DICKEY, OF SARATOGA SPRINGS, NEW YORK.
IMPROVEM ENT IN CLOTH ES WRINGERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 57,485, dated August 28, 1866.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, J. C. DICKEY, of Saratoga Springs, in the county of Saratoga and State of New York, have invented an Improved Ulothes-Vringer; and l do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference bein g had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification- Fignre l being a side elevation of my improved Wringer; Fig. 2, a transverse vertical section thereof.
Like letters designate corresponding parts in both gnres.
My improvement belongs to the class of clotlies-wrin gers in which elastic or india'rubber rollers are employed, and it consists in making the surfaces ot' the rollers with alternate longitudinal ridges and depressions of regular form, so that the ridges of one roller will closely tit into the depressions of the other roller, substantially as hereinafter described.
ln the drawings, let A represent the side standards, connected by cross-pieces a, a, and having notches B B in their lower ends, to lit over the sides of the tub, on which they are held by set-screws b b, or their equivalents, all substantially as employed in the ordinary wringers of this class.
The rollers G D have their central portions or shafts f j' of a ridged or corrugated form, more or less similar to the outlines of the rollers when complete. This central portion or shaft may be made of malleable iron or other suitable material.
The indiarubber coverings d d are molded l l I their entire length, 111 combination with the into the proper shape to tit over the iron shafts when made, and are then slipped over the shafts, fitting tightly thereon, and are secured there by the usual means; but the shape of the solid portion obviously enables the indiarubber or elastic portion to be held firmly thereon Without any other means, except to t closely. This is a considerable advantage incident to the form of the rollers, and obviates a considerable ditiieulty in the use of india-rubber rollers.
The thickness of the rubber may be about as indicated in Fig. 2, more or less.
The outlines of the ridges and depressions, in order to fit each other closely, should most properly be of a rounded form, as represented, but may be varied somewhat and still Work well.
The number of 'ridges on each roller is not im portan t.
The lower roller, D, has its shaft extended at one end, as at G, Fig. 1, for attaching acrank, H, as usual. No gearing is required to couiiect the rollers, their intermatcliing forms servii'ig that purpose-another advantage de rived therefrom.
The journals ot' the shafts turn in oblong vert-ical slots, one in each standard, as indicated by dotted lines at g, Fig. 2.
The upper roller, C, may be pressed down upon the lower roller, D, by springs, the force of which may be regulated by set-screws in the ordinary manner.
The lower cross-piece a. may be widened to a few inches in breadth on the side next to the operator, in order to sustain the clothes for rubbing soap on them at any time as they pass between the rollers, since I design to use the wringer frequently during the process of washing, and not merely after the washing is completed.
WVhat l claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
Two cores with alternate depressions and elevations meshing with eaeli other through rubber covering that conforms both externally and internally to the inequalities of the core.
J. C. DICKEY.
Witnesses J. L. BROWN, WM. F. BROWN.
