Application filed July 6, 1901. Serial No. 67,381.
the free separation of the rolls without undue friction,
and also to propel the rolls in the easiestand most effective manner. I accomplish these ends by means of the mechanism illustrated inthe accompanying drawing in which Figure 1 represents a partly sectional front view of a clothes wringer constructed in accordance with my invent ion, certain parts of the same being broken away, Fig. 2 an end view on the line 2'2 in Fig. 1, Fig. 3 a top view on the line 3-3 in Fig. 1, Fig. 4 a view of the bell crank lever, and Fig. 5 a view of a modification the cons1 ruetion being the same as that shown in Fig. 1 except that a lever is used in place of a pulley and chain.
Referring by letter to the drawing, A indicates the left hand end piece of the wringer frame, A the right hand end piece of the same, Bthe upper cross bar, E the upper wringer roll, F the lower wringer roll, and E and F the respective roll shafts. A drive shaft, D, has at its right hand end a stationary bearing in abearing block, (3, and, outside the bearing is supplied with a spur pinion, D. The other end of said drive shaft has stationary bearing'in a casting, i (which is secured to the end piece A) and, outside the bearing, is provided with a sprocket pinion, D and crank, G. The block C is secured in the slot of the end piece A by bolts, f, and furnishes stationary bearing for one end of the roll shaftE The other end of said rollshaft has upward play in the slot of the end piece A, (its end coming in sidethe casting i) and has bearing against the lower end, I), of a bearing frame, 0, said bearing frame consisting through most of its length-of two parallel arms, one on each side of the drive shaft, and fitting loosely in the slot of the end piece A. Outside the block 0 said roll shaft is provided with a spur wheel, E, in mesh with the spur pinion D. The right hand end of the lower roll shaft has bearing in a block, F said block being supported by a stirrup, H. Grooves are cut in the sides of the block C so that the parallel arms ofsaid stirrup may freely slide therein. The other end of the lower roll shaft has stationary bearing in the lower part of the end piece A in the usual manner, and, outside the bearing, is provided with a sprocket wheel, F. Said sprocket wheel is connected with the sprocket pinion D by a link belt D In the construction shown in Fig. 1 a pulley, e, is supported by a pivot, j, in the cross bar B, between the centor of id cross bar and the right hand end of the piece A and the center of said cross bar.
wringer frame. A chain, 2, runs over said pulley and a hook at one end thereof is attached to the upper end of the stirrup, H. The other end of said chain furnishes bearing for a hook at one end of a bell crank lever, (I. Said lever is provided with upper lateral trunnions d, and lugs, d, and with lower trunnions, (1. Upon the upper part, b, of the bearing frame, C, one end of a bar, b, rests. The other end of said bar has hook branches at rest on the trunnions d and under the lugs d of the lever d. One end of a spiral extension spring, 0, is at tached tothe trunnions (1 by means of a double hook, c, the end of the lever passing between the two parts of the hook so thatcach part catches one of the trunnions. The other endof the spring is attached to a depending branch of the bar b by means of an eye bolt, g, and nut g The bar b, lever d, and spring 0, together form a most effective pressure device and practically form an elastic pressure bar, its resisting power being largely regulated by adjustment of the nut g, and the pressure is adjusted to the rolls by turning a thumb screw, (1, which has bearing in the cross bar, B, between the end The outer end of said pressure bar bears upon one end of the upper roll,
-While the inner end bears upon the inner end of the chain 0. thus lifting the outer end thereof, and with it the stirrup and one end of the lower roll. In Fig. 5 a lever, e, is pivotally supported so as to be capable of oscillation on a hanger, J, depending from the cross bar B. The result is the same in either construction as the pulley e, and the lever c each act as an oscillating support for the inner end of the pressure bar.
