IMPROVD WASHING-MACHINE.
. The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it 'may conce/rn:
Be it known that I, SEBASTIAN OEDAMER, of Muscatine, in the county of Muscatine, and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Yashing-Machines; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
In the accompanying drawings- Figure l is a longitudinal vertical section of the lower part of the machine, with a direct lateral view of the upper part of the standards, and the parts connected therewith.
Figure 2 is a detached lateral view of the lower end of o ne of the swinging arms.
Figure 3 is a detached view of the swinging roller, or upper rubber.
My invention consists .chiefly in a peculiar novel construction of elastic rubber, formed by the combination of a fiuted rollerwith rubber rings thereon.
.In the construction of my improved washing-maA chine, a suitable rectangular box, E, is made with two upright standards B.
In the bottom of this box is placed a frame, D, with aseries of small rollers, A, grooved as shown in fig. l.
This frame and series of rollers are made removable, so that one end of the frame may be raised upon the edge of the box, and the rollers thus employedl like the common wash-board.
The ends or axes of these rollers, and also those of the upper rubbe1,'g. 3, are made of wood, instead of iron, asnsual, and then 'a ring, .or thimble, S, is put uponsuch wooden axle to prevent wear, and to allow of easy repair by a new tbimble,.\vhen out of order from rust or long use.
The upper rubber, iig. 3, consists of a grooved roller, surrounded by a series of rubber rings, F, thus forming a very elastic and elicient rubber, which will not wear or tear the finest fabric.
It will be seen that the water will pass between Ythese rubber rings, and into the grooves of the roller, as it is pressed from the clothing, by the sudden and ever-varyin g action of the irregular surface of the roller.
This roller has an elastic bearing, G, fig. 2, which is self-adjusting, by means of a rubber spring, or band,
H, which passes through the bearing and fastens the same to the swinging ami I, fig. l.
The two swinging arms are connected by a cross-bar, K, and supported on a sliding roller, L, which in'turu is suspended on the rubber springs M, fand also up'on the arms of a long wooden spring, N, extending across andsome distance beyond the standards B, While the Wooden spring is supported only at its middle.
By this arrangement, the arms I, as they swing to and fro, slide freely up and down in the slots of standard, B by and thus follow the horizontal series of rollers at the bottom of the box, acting with full force to the ends of the box, while the springs or bands allow the bearing G to yield to extraordinary pressure in passing an unusual obstacle or amount of clothes.
I am aware that rubber rings have been used on a common smooth roller, thus giving equal pressure all around the roller, but I believe it is a great improvement to use a iluted roller, with rubber rings, thus giving different pressure at different points, and producing a rush of water through the clothing.
Having thus Afully described my invention,
I claim- I. The upper rubber, g. 3, when' made of a luted4 Witnesses:
