TO ALL WHOM IT-MAY CONGERN:
Be it known that I, JAMES WHITNEY, ot` Bristol, in the county of Addison, and State of Vermont, have invented a. new and improved Combined Washer, Wringer, and Table; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- AFigure lis a. vertical longitudinal section of my improved machine, taken through the line y y, i'g. 2, part of the table-leaf or cover being shown in place.
Figure 2 is a. detail sectional view of the same, taken through the line a: w, fig. 1.
vSimilar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
My invention has for its object to furnish an improved machine by which clothes may be washed quickly and thoroughly without wearing or tearing them, by which they may be conveniently wrung out when washed, and which, when not in use for washing purposes, may be used fora work-table. And it consists in the construction-of` the sliding-frame, in which the lower cylinder is.pivoted, inthe constructionof the wringer, and' in the combination of atable-leaf, constructed as described, with the box or tub; the whole being constructed and arranged as hereinafter more fully described.
A isthe box or tub, which is made rectangular in form, and of such a length that there may be suihcient space at each end for the reception of the clothes to be operated upon, and which 'is supported upon legs of convenient length. B and are grooved or iluted cylinders, the upper one, B, of which is stationary, and lrevolv'es in bearings in the sides of the box A. To the projecting end of one of the journals of the cylinder B is attached a crank, D, by which the machine is operated. The lower cylinder C is pivoted to the side timbers e', of the frame E, which slides up and down vertically in the central part of the tub, being kept in its proper relative position by cleats a attached to the sides of the tub A. The frame E rests upon rubber or other springs F, made of such a material as will not corrode by the action of the water, said springs being kept in their relative positions by guide-pins passing through them, and entering holes in the side timbers el of the frame E, as shown in g. 1. This construction enables the rollers to adjust themselves to the thickness of the clothes passing between the cylinders. The side timbers el of the frame are connected to each other by the inclined timbers or aprons e2, which also act as guides to the clothes in passing to and from the said cylinders. G is thewringer, the lower edge of the frame oi' which is slotted to fit upon the edge of the box A, as shown in iig. l. The lower roller H is stationary, and is revolved by mea-ns of the'crank I, attached to the projecting end of one of its journals. The journals of the upper roller J revolve in slots in the upper part of the wringerframe, and are held down by rubber springs, K or their equivalents, placed in the said slots, andl the lower ends of which rest upon blocks L, which ride upon the journals of the said roller J. M are rubberor other elastic straps, the ends of which are secured to the sides of the wringerfframe, which pass over the upper edge ot" the said wringer-frame, and against'which the upper ends of the rubber springs K press, as shown in figs. l and 2. By this construction the rollers H and lare enabled to adjust themselves to the thickness of the clothes passing between them, so as at all times to exert the necessary. pressure. N- is a removable top or cover fitting upon the top of the box A, and which is kept in place by the cleats Oattached toits under side, and which are of such a length as to iit into the box A, as shown in iig. 2. The cleats O are perforated longitudinally, or have grooves formed in their upper sides for the reception of the sliding bars P, as shown in fig. 1. R is a when raised, is held in a. horizontal position by the sliding bars P, as shown in iig. 2. i
By this construction, when the machine is not in usefor washing purposes, by removing the wringer G, and placing the cover N upon the box or tub A, the machine can be used as a. work-table.
I claim as new, and desire to secure byLetters Patent- The combination of the tub A, sliding frame E, rubber springs F, tinted cylinder B C,"wringers GrZ constructedl as described, and theV table-leaf N, R, O, und P, as herein set forth for the purpose specified.
