@uiten gisten @stent @ffice DAVIDv HANNA, or no RNnL'LsvI-LLE, NE-w YORK. Letters .Patent No.'` 68,981,4 dated September 17, 1867.
IMPROVE!) WASHING MACHINE;
TO ALLW'HOM ITMAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, DAVID HANNA, of Hornellsville, in the county of Steuben, in the State of New York,
have invented certain new-and useful improvements in Washing Machines; and the following is a full, clear,
and exact description of the same, rcfercnce'being had'to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Y f Figure 1 represents a perspective view of the machine open,for putting in or taking out theblothes.,
Figure 2 shows a longitudinal section through the box and revolving cylinder. i
Figure 3 shows a cross-section of the same'. g V
The object ct' my invention is the cleansing of clothes or any textile fabrics whichgbecome soiled and dirty by use, either in large or small quantities, without in the least injuring the articles or rubbing them more than by constantly changing their position while the process of cleansing is going o n. i
My invention consists in a revolving cylinder, with internal cone-shaped slet-covering, and a movable crosshead, made adjustable by ascrew, to which the crank-handle is attached, so that the space or `area of thercylindenmay be varied in size,faccording'to thc'number of articles or quantity of` clothing to be cleansed, and also be used to compress and squeeze the suds and water out of the clothes before they *are wrung out to be placed in the boiler for boiling. Y 4 i To enable others to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe it moreifully, referring to the drawings andto the letters marked thereon. l 1 A i Y I i A square4 or oblong box, A, -of any desired siz'e, and supported on four legs aa tta, may be made in the usual manner. A cylinder, B, large enough to iill the box A, is fitted into it, soI that it can be turned `by a crank, C, at the end. The cylinder B is made of hard wood, the heads o b having holes c'ccc through them, and projecting ribs d d at rightangles from the centre.- A movable head or follower, D, constructed in like manner, is placed in the cylinder, so as to be `moved from end to end by a screw, E, which extends throughthe nutF, which forms one of the journals for the cylinder to hang on. A thumb-screw, f, is tted into the. journal F, :n the outside of the box A, for the purpose of setting against the-screw E and holdingit in the journalt nut F, so that the cylinder Bca-n be revolved by it and the crank-handle C attached to the screw at its outer end. The internal portion of the slats e e e'e,iwhchcover the cylinder B, is made with right-angled corners, j
pointing to the centre, so that the clothes, as'they arebeing tumbled from side to side, as the'cylindcr, revolving, lifts them outof the water, are slightly chafed onthe sharp edges of' thefslats, and` theirposition changed, so that the .dirt is easily removed when the clothes are compressedlby the action of the screw E forcing the follower D toward 4 the left'hand end of the cylinder BL i i When a few number of pieces, or a small washing-is to be done, by loosening the thumb-screwf thescrewf E may be turned in, so `that the space G in the cylinder, between the head b and the follower D, will be in proportion to the quantity; and when a large washing is to be done, the -follower D may be brought to near vthe t right-hand end. The thumb-screwf being tightened, the crank C operates to revolve the cylinder in any 'position the follower mayfbc placed, and whenthe thumb-screw is turned back,and the-'cylinder held" froml revolvirg,'by turning the crank C the follower compresses the clothes and squeezes the dirty water ont of them,` which is drawn oil" at the spigot 7i at the bottom of the box. The clothes are then in the bestcondtion to be wrung out for boiling.
A very good substitute for boiling is to put the clothes back again into the cylinder, after they have `been Wrung out once, and put into the machine boilingwatcr, and turn the cylinder ivc or ten minutes, which will" cleanse them more than half an hours boiling.
The advantages ofmy improved-washing machine, constructed and operated in the manner above described, arc-very great over others in use that have ever come to my knowledge, it havingbeenv practically demonstrated that from one to twenty dozen'pieces can be washed Vequally well with the machine, by adjusting the follower,
making the space in thc cylinder to conform to the quantity or bulk of the articles. The finest fabrics will t not be drawn, or in the least injured, and the dirtiest clothes can be thoroughly cleansed in from thirty min.
i utos to cue hours operation.
The lid H of Vthe boxjmay be supported in a horizontalposition, open, by the propfstick I, resting on the ledge J, so as to form a table on which to lay the clothes to be placed in,*or,when taken out ofthecylindelgv-in 1 which a. suicient number of slats are hinged to form en'opening, a.nd when elo-sed are secured byihooks or buttons, so that the .articles are confined inside of the cylinder, and ere cleansed by the operation of turning the cylinder, and expressing the dirty suds and Water from them, in the manner herein described.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The cylinder B, covered with slats e e e e, eon'struciped in the manner described, when eombinedwith a movable head. or follower, l), and an adjustable screw, E, nut-journal F, thumb-screw j', and opereted by a crank, C, in the manner herein described, for the purposes'set forth.
In testimony whereof I subscribe myA name inthe presence of-- DAVID HANN A.
