glatten tatrs tttrnt @ffice A. T. WILLIAMSON, OF LA GROSSE, WISCONSIN. Letters Patent No. 625,676, dated September 10, 18467. I
turnover WASHING MACHINE'.
TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, A. T. WILLIAMSON, of La Crosse, in the county of La Crosse, and State of Wisconsin, have invented an Improved Washing Machine; and I do hereby declare that the following isa full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation ofthe same, reference being hadto the aecompanyingdrawings and letters marked thereon, making a part of this description, in which- Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional elevation of my invention.
Figure 2, :i perspective representation of the arms or elbows of the lever, together with the washer to which they are attached. Y
Figure 3,V a. perspectiveview of the movable wash-board. A
The nature of my' invention consists in the use of sleeve-elbows for connccting'the levers witlr the movable washer, arranged withy a recessed face, and perforated with a series of holes, in order to let the water pressed through the clothes pass out into the washing-box freely; and vin the use of a backboard, which Vis also perforated and arranged with wings, so that the dirty water may pass through, and also that theclothes may beheld in a suitable position for washing; and further, in providing a half lid for covering 4the wash-boards when desired, and leave the balance of the washing-boxopen for the purpose of sudsing,` &c., which is necessary in the ,process of washing. The means of joining the lids'together is also new, consisting in i'abheting their edges and holding them in place by means of the battens which strengthen the wider lid.
To enable othersskilled in the art to make and use my invention, I have marked corresponding parts with similar letters, and will now give a detailed description. i
Arepresents a common washing-box, to which my device is applied. A false bottom-n, is tted in box A, Aand madeto support a back-board, L, gs.' 1 and 3, having wings, m, attached to its ends `for the purpose of giving it strengthfholding it in position, and preventing clothes from gettinginto the anglesof the box A, where they could not he properly washed.l `The board has also a series of holes made through it 'Brlthe purpose of allowing Water forced through the clothes to pass into the space between said board 4and the end of box A, from whence itfcan return into space l", at the rear of the washer K, by means of an opening, Q. The sleeve- 4 elbow F has a peculiar construction, as seen at gs. I and 2, and is made to support the levers B and washer 2' Ic h, and in order torsecure them firmly in place, I make a recess in the upper parts, j, of suiiicient depth to receive said levers B and bolt them fast, and also make recesses in the shanks g, to conform to the'shapeot the washer, and insert its ends in said recesses with alittle force, and then prevent the Shanks from becoming detached, bythe use of screws or otherwise, as most convenient. That part of the washer shown at K is recessed back far enough to form a shoe, z', for gathering the clothes from the bottom of the box, or part n, and also to form a stop-borard, z, for preventing clothes from falling over back of the washer K before the dirt is removed. A small lid, E, is hinged to box A, and rahbeted so as to iit the movable lid D and pass underbattens C secured to said lid. This arrangement is very simple and convenient, and permits the machine tobe used with closed lids or open, as desired.
p Operation. l lThe box A canv be filled as usual with suds, and the clothes put between the was-hert' k h and the back L, after which the levers B can`bc worked up and down, which will produce the required friction and pressure to wash clothes in a short time and in a neat manner, the dirty water" or suds passing through the perforations in parts K L, carrying the dirt to the'bottom of the box. V Having thus fullydescribed my device, what I claim, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is- 1. The combination ofthe sleeve-elbows F, having recesses conforming tothe shape of levers Bandwashcr z' k h, arranged substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. The combination of back-board L, having wings m, in combination' with the recessed washer t k 7L, sleeveelbows F, levers B, and the double lids E D, arranged substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
A. T. WILLIAMSON.
