WASHING-MACHINE SUPPORT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 21, 1908.
Application filed May 7, 1907. Serial No. 372,360.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANK M. SINCLAIR, citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Washing- Machine Supports, of which the following is a specification.
This invention appertains to a laundry appliance designed for supporting a tub, and means for agitating clothing or articles to be cleansed without subjecting the same to rubbing or pounding which tends to weaken the fabric and to tear the same.
The invention combines a support for the suds receptacle and sustaining means for the washer, the latter comprising cooperating complemental rolls which are forced together by spring pressure to admit of their yielding to the bulk of the clothing or fabric passing between them.
For a full description of the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction and the means for effecting the result, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings.
While the invention may be adapted to different forms and conditions by changes in the structure and minor details without departing from the -spirit or essential features thereof, still the preferred embodiment is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:c
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the machine set up for use. Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing the device closed. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view showing more clearly the means for supporting the rollers comprising the washer.
The stand portion comprises bars l which are connected by rungs 2, 3 and 4. Other bars 5 considerably shorter than the bars 1 are pivoted intermediate of their ends to the said bars 1 by means of the rung 4. The bars 5 are adapted to turn freely upon the rung 4 and are connected near-their ends by rungs 6 and 7. The bars 5 are arranged upon the inner sides of the bars 1. Other bars 8 are pivotally connected with the bars 1 by means of the rung 3 and are formed with longitudinal slots 9 through which the rung 6 connecting the upper ends of the bars 5 passes. The bars 8 are connected at or near their outer ends by means of a rung 10 and are arranged upon the inner sides of the bars 5.
from the outer ends The parts are so arranged as to admit of the bars 5 and8 folding into the plane yol' the bars 1. N otches 11 are formed in the inner or rear edges ofthe bars 5 to receive the rung 3 and thereby admit of said bars 5 being turned when folded to lie wholly in the plane of the bars 1 so as to occupy the smallest amount of space.l When the bars 5 are unfolded, they are limited in their outward movement by the rung 6 engaging with the outer ends of the slots 9. The bars 8 with the cooperating run 's 3, 6 and 10 form a support for a tub or suc s receptacle 12, said support occupying an approximately horizontal position. The bars 5 with their connecting rungs and the bars 1 with their connecting rungs, form in effect folding leg sections of the main framev and support the washer and the suds receptacle.
In practice, when the leg sections of the frame-work or stand are unfolded, the support for the tub or suds receptacle occupies an approximately horizontal position and receives the said tub or receptacle. The washer is adjusted so that the rollers come over the tub or suds receptacle with the lower roller 17 dipping into the water. The clothing to be washed is passed between the rollers 17 and 21 either in a continuous direction or backward and forward, the
compressive force exerted by the rollers removing the dirt from the meshes of the fabric by forcing the water therethrough,V
the same carrying oifthe dirt or foreign matter.
When the machine is to be set aside and is not required sections and the support for the tub are llO for immediate use, the leg top of the shorter leg section, the parts being arranged to fold into a common plane, and 15 bars piyotally connected to the upper end of the longer leg Section, and adapted to be held in an approximately horizontal position to form a support Jfor a clothes washer.
