MARTIN v. JnN'NNGs, or o-EN'TRALIA, MISSOURL Letters Patent No. 73,978, dated Fe'uary 4, 1868.
i IMPROVED ,WASHING-MACHINE.
"attr rlgehule wenn tt in tigen intim ttentmn mating ont uf metano.
To ALL WHoM 1T MAY ooNoERN: i i
Be'it known that I,.MARTIN V. JENNINGS, of Centralia, Boone county, State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful AImproved Washing-Machine, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the annexed drawing, representing a longitudinal section thereof, and making a. part offthis specification.
Similar lettersindicate like parts` My invention consists of a square -wooden box, A, of anypdesired size, supported upon four legs, two-of which are shown at b b', and having a closely-fltting cover, C, working on a hinge, d, the cover being somewhat shorter than the box. "Around the interior ofthe box arearranged six corrugated Wash-boards, thus converting it from a square to an Octagon. Three of these are shown at' e e e, and the lower side of. each is of circular form, as shown at 7c 7c kQ-which allows a free circulation of the water into the corners of the box. Passing through the centre of thefcover is a spindle, m, having upon its upper extremity a pinion, n, gearing with a spur-wheel, o, whose axis is atfright angles witlLthe spindle audits bearings in the standardspp. kThe spindle also has its bearing in a projection, s, from the standard p'. A lever,f, attached to the spur-Wheel o, is used' to give the s'pindlea reciprocating motion. To the spindle are attached live or more dash-arms, vwhich 'may be adjusted by slipping the head w up or down, it being kept in the desired position by the set-screw x. Three of these dash-arms are shown at g g g. The front of the box is extended, as shown at y, and thetop sloped at z; the one serving to catch the water thrown outl by the motion ofv the machine, and the other causing it tov flow back again. A plug will be placed in the most convenient'. position to draw the Water olf.
' Y'.[fhe articles to be Washed and the water having been put in the box, the dash-arms are set in.motion by the lever, and, drawing the clothes against the wash-board, soon cleanse them all, since none of them are unacted upon by the machine, as there are no corners for the small articles to oat into and be out of reachof the dash-arms; while, by leaving thespaces beneath the Wash-boards, more Water'can be used and a freer circulation had than though it were round.
By having the dasharms adjustable, the machine can be made to wash any quantity of clothes, however smaller large, since it can he so ixied as to reach anything placed in the box.
I do not claim to be the irst inventor oi' the gearing described, nor of the rotatingrdasher; but
What I do claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters'Patent, is
The combination, in a. washing-machine, of the corrugated wash-boards e e e, Ste., with an adjustable dasher, w, 'when the same are arranged, constructed, and operatedsubstantially as shown and specified.
