AMMOODY WASHING MACHINE.
UNITED STATES.
PATENT oFFroE.
WASHING-MACHINE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 18, 1906.
Application filed May 14, 1906. Serial No. 316,846.
To 60M ZUZZ/OTH/ it may concern.-
Be it known that I, AMANDA MOODY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Harris, in the county of Louisa and State of Virginia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in lashing-Machines; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in washing-machines and the object of the invention is to produce a simple and efiicient device of this nature comprising a rotary rubber and the provision of a series of adjustable spring-pressed rods carrying rollers with corrugated surfaces adapted to be held above the clothes and to bear against the same as they are rotated by a rubber fixed to a rotatable shaft.
The invention comprises various other details of construction and combinations and arrangements of parts, which will be hereinafter fully described and then specifically defined in the appended claims.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view through the washing-machine. Fig. 2 is a sectional view on line 2 2 of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view showing the manner of attachment of the central shaft to the disk having projections thereon.
Reference now being had to the details of the drawings by letter, A designates the body portion of the machine, which may be of any desired shape and is provided with a series of longitudinal corrugations B upon the inner surface thereof. In the bottom of the body portion is a conical-shaped bearing-block C, with a recess 0 in the apex thereof in which a pintle D integral with the disk D is adapted to have bearings. E and E designate two sections forming the top of the machine, the former of which, E, is adapted to be stationary and the latter connected to the section E by hinges F, whereby access may be had to the interior of the body portion of the machine. Suitable screws are provided for holding the section E to the machine. A shaft M has a bearing in the section E of the wheel H, which is in mesh with a similar bev-' eled wheel I, fixed to the shaft K, which latter is journaled in the standards N, rising from the section E. A crank-handle O is fixed to the shaft K, whereby the same may be rotated. Said disk D is preferably circular in outline and is provided with a series of projections Q upon the upper surface thereof, which have corrugated surfaces and serve as rubbers. The center of said disk D has a slot or recess Gr substantially H-shaped and is adapted to receive a similar-shaped proj ection R, formed at the lower end of the shaft M, whereby the latter'may be securely held to said disk.
The section 'E of the top is provided with a ertures to receive the rods T, there being s 10WI1 in the drawings in section in Fig. 3 three pairs of said rods, one pair of which is shown in elevation in Fig. 1, and the upper portions of said rods are threaded to receive the adjusting-nuts P. Each of said rods has fixed thereto a collar T, and S S designate springs, one being mounted upon each rod and bearing between a collar T and the under surface of the top section E of the cover. The lower end of each rod T is formed into an eye T in which the spindle ends W of the corrugated rollers W are j ournaled.
In operation the clothes are placed within the body portion of the machine and on the disk having the rubbers Q. The rods are adjusted so that they will come in contact with the upper surfaces of the clothes, and by a rotary movement of the disk the clothes will be turned upon the disk and agitated by the rubbers and also by said corrugated rollers, thereby thoroughly cleansing the same.
What I claim is 1. A washing-machine comprising a body portion, a rotatable shaft mounted therein, a disk fixed to said shaft, projections upon the upper surface of said disk, acover, adjustable rods fixed thereto and depending within the body portion of the machine, corrugated rollers journaled upon said rods, and means for rotating said shaft, as set forth.
2. A washing-machine comprising a body portion, a rotatable shaft j ournaled therein, a disk fixed to said shaft and provided with projections upon the upper surface thereof, a top to the machine, spring-pressed adjustable rods carried by the cover and depending within the machine, corrugated rollers journaled at the lower ends of said rods, and means for rotating said shaft, as set forth.
3. A washing-machine comprising a body portion, a shaft j ournaled therein, a disk fixed to said shaft and provided with projections upon the upper surface thereof, a top to said machine made up of two pieces hinged together, rods passing through one of the sections of the top and provided with eyes at their lower ends, corrugated rollers having spindle ends journaled in said eyes, collars fixed upon said rods, springs interposed between the collars and top, adjustable screws mounted upon the threaded ends of said rods and adapted to bear against the outer surface of one of the sections of the cover, and gear mechanism for rotating said. shaft, as set forth.
4. A washing-machine comprising a body portion, a bearing-block in the bottom thereof provided with a central bearing-recess, a disk having a lug D having a bearing in said recess, a slot in the upper surface of the disk, a shaft having lugs projecting therefrom seated in the recess in said disk, projections upon the upper surface of the disk, a top to the machine, rods depending therefrom and positioned within the machine, rollers journaled. upon said rods, and means for rotating said disk, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
AMANDA MOODY.
