IMPROVED 'WASHING MACHINE.
dille dgrhnle' nitriet tu ie tigen Enters lutiut mit mating not nf tigt time,
TO ALL WIIOM IT MAY CONCERN:
` Be it known that I, J. STENGEL, of Groton, in the county of Ncwayge, and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Washing Machines, and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and complete description of the constructionand operation of the same, reference being had to the accompany" ingdrawings, making e. part of this specification, in which Figure l is a perspective view of the machine.
Figure 2 is a vertical transverse section.
Iiilie letters of reference refer to like parts in the views.
This machine-consists et' the case A, iig. l, in which is suspended from the shaft B o. pair of wash-boards, B, and which are constructed in the following manner: C are strips of wood, across which are secured in any desirable way the rubbers D, which may be more or less in number, and of the shape in the drawino. D is a brace, E a shaft, bythe means et' which the boards are suspended to the shaft B by the arms F; the position of these boards relatively to each other is shown in 2. The lower ends or" the wash-beards-are connected to each other by e. chain or string of movable rubbers G, `which are in shape similar' to those constituting the boards B. This string of rubbers forms the bottom of the wash-boards, and by their dependent weight draws the lower ends of the boards together more or less, as the number upon the string` may increase its` length and weight. rifhe shape of the case is such as to conform to the tapering or wcdging character of the boards, thus produced by the weight of the attached movable rubbers, as shown in Eg. 2.'
The operation et' this machine is as fellows: The clothes to be washed are placed between the boards trom the front I-I, which is a shelf for the accommodation of the washer. The necessary water and soap being)r thrown in, 'the boards are then operated by the handle'Lby pushing it backward and forward, thereby producing a vibratory action ci' thc shaft B; this in' -turn produces an alternating vertical action of the boards, between which are the clothes,`thus rubbing from both sides and against each other at the same time. The movable rubbor;` :y their being adjustable, rise alternately with the boards, and by their eircuiar action cause the clothes to turn between the wash-boards, and thus from time to time bringing the unrubbed parts of the clothes to the boards, until all have been fully rubbed, which can then be reir-.overl and finished oil' iu atub, or the Waslnboards may be removed from the case and the washing completed in the same.' It will be observed that as each beard descends it is brought nearer to the opposite one; by this the clothes are subjectedvto a pressure or slight pounding at the saine time they are being rubbed; hence by this double action of the machine the process oi' washingV is easily and thoroughly accomplished. By shortening,r the chain or string of adjustable rubbers by removing seine oi' them, the boa-rds are brought closer together, thereby increasing the force oi' the rubbing, it also reduces the size or" the machine, and thus adjusting it to small washings or increasing it by the addition of others', as he case ine-y be- 1What I claim as my improvement, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
E. The pendent Wash-beards I3', provided with alternate rubbers D and spaces, and hinged or pivotcd to the shafts E, in Combination 'with the adjustable rubbers G', and case A, arranged and ,operatingVA conjointly as and for the prirpose set forth. l
f2. The shafts I3 E and arms F, in combination with the sidcpieces C, rubbers D G, and A, arranged and operating asA and for the purpose set forth.
` JOST STENGEL.
