Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 17, 1907.
Application filed May 15, 1907. erial No- 373,807-
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1', WILLIAM G. MANNING, a citizen of the United States, residing at New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Clothes- Line Windlasses; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specifi cation, and represent, in-
Figure 1 a front view of a clothes line Windlass constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 a sectional side view of the same showing a clothes line connected therewith.
This invention relates to an improvement in clothes line Windlass, that is, a device used in connection with clothes lines extending from a point adjacent to a window to a support at a distance therefrom, and in which it is necessary to move the rope back and forth in hanging out and taking in clothes.
The object of this invention is a simple arrangement of parts whereby the rope may be turned back and forth, and which will hold the rope when moved to the desired extent; and the invention consists in the construction as will be hereinafter described and particularly recited in the claims.
In carrying out my invention I employ a frame comprising a base 2, uprights 3, 4, connected by a top 5, the base being adapted to be secured to any convenient point by a screw bolt 6 or any other convenient means.
Mounted between the sides 3, 4, are parallel shafts 7 and 8 one above the other, the shaft 8 having a gear wheel 10 which meshes with a gear wheel 9 on a shaft 7 which shaft projects beyond the frame at one side to receive a handle 11 by which the shaft may be turned, and so that the turning of the shaft 8 turns the shaft 7.
Upon the shaft 8 is a grooved roller 12, and upon the shaft 7 is a similar roller 13, the rollers being arranged in different planes but close to each other.
Projecting inward from the side 4 is an arm 14 having a hole 15 in line with the groove in the pulley 12, and projecting inward from the side 3 is an arm 16 having a hole 17 in line with the groove in the pulley 13.
The rope 18 entering through the hole 15 passes around the pulley 12 down and preferably once and a half around the pulley 13 so as to obtain necessary fric tion to prevent slipping and out through the hole 16, and by turning the shaft 8 in one direction or the other the rope is drawn back and forth, and owing to the fact that it runs in the grooved rollers it will not creep from side to side, and as the rollers are in different vertical planes, the rope will not bind or foul by overlapping.
I claim:-
The herein described clothes line Windlass comprising a frame, two parallel shafts mounted therein, means for driving said shafts, grooved rollers mounted on said shafts in different vertical planes, said frame provided with inwardly extending arms, and holes in said arms in line with the grooves in said rollers.
In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
WILLIAM C. MANNING.
