SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 774,145, dated November 8, 1904.
Application filed January 11, 1904. Serial No. 188,648. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE E. AVERILL, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Cleveland, in the county of Guyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Motors for l/Vashing-Machines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to motors for washing-machines, and has for its object to provide a motor attachment for such machines whereby the machine shall be self-operating, and said motor has a means for automatically actuating the valve in a direct-acting motor and a means connecting said motor with a rotary washer in such a manner that the reciprocal movements of the motor are converted into rotary movements transmitted to the washer, whereby the'washer shall have intermittent reversible rotary motions.
The invention consists of the structure described in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is an end elevation of a machine, showing a side elevation of the motor attachment. Fig. 2 is a partial side elevation of the machine, showing the mechanism connecting the motor With the washer. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section of the motor.
A represents a framework-support for a rotary washing-machine, which may be of any of the known varieties.
B is a motor attached to the side of the frame and consists of a cylinder C, having a reciprocating piston D attached to a-pistonrod E, passing out through each cylinderhead having suitable stuffing-boxes d (Z.
F is a cylindrical valve-chamber connected to the cylinder C, having ports 0 0 connecting the two cylinders. The ends of cylinder F are closed with chambered heads f f.
G G are piston-valves fixed on the ends of a rod G, adapted to alternately open and close said ports 0 0. Valves G G are made with two heads it it and are operated by means of an auxiliary valve mechanism beneath them. Said valves G G are fixed on the ends of a rod G, and through the space between the heads 7b 7b the water from cylinder G finds egress into the cylinder I and out through discharge-opening P.
In the valve-chamber I is provided arod K, the ends of which extend out through the heads 7c it, having suitable stufiing-boxes. L L are valves on said rod K, which alternately open in ways a n on the top side of cylinder C. 6
The depending arms M M as the piston-rod E moves back and forth strike against the ends of the rod K for actuating the valves L L.
O is the entry-port into the cylinder F, and
P is the exhaust-port from chamber I, cylin- 5 der (J, and the ends of cylinder F outside of heads 71 also exhausting through port P.
R is a lever fulcrumed onto the frame A above the rack-bar N, having segmental rackbars S S on each end, the lower one meshing with the rack-bar N, the upper one meshing with a pinion T on the journal of the washing-machine.
Q, Q are entry-ports for water to enter for operating the valves G G and controlled by 75 valves L L.
The Workings of this motor are as follows: IVater enters chamber F through opening 0. Then when the valves G G are in position seen in Fig. 3 the Water passes through the port 0 at the right in the direction of the arrow into cylinder C, pushing the piston D. When the piston arrives at the end of its stroke, the arm M strikes the end of rod K, changing the position of valves L L. This opens port Z at 8 5 the right. Then the force of the water from Q forces the valves G G over to the left, thus closing port 0 at the right to pressure and opening port 0 at the left. This admits water to the left side of piston D and makes the re- 9 verse movements of the machine. In exhausting the Waste Water passes through the ports 0 0 into chamber I, thence out of discharge P. These movements are transmitted through the medium of the lever R to the Washingmachine.
Having described my invention, what I claim is- The combination substantially as described, l carried by said arms, and said arms being consisting of a Water-motor comprising a cylinder, a piston in said cylinder, a piston-rod extending through the heads of said cylinder, a valve-chamber connected with said cylinder, double valves attached to each end of the valve-rod, an auxiliary-valve chamber connected to said double-valve chamber, valves on each end of a valve-rod extending through the heads of said auxiliary-valve chamber, arms on the ends of the piston-rod, a rack-bar adapted, at each stroke of the piston-rod, to actuate said auxiliary valves, for automatically operating said double valves, substantially as described and for the purpose set forth.
Signed by me at Cleveland, Ohio, this 27th day of November, 1903.
