Letters Patent No. 93,382, dated August 3, 1869.
IMPROVEMNT IN WASHING-MACHINES.
The Schedule referred 'to in these Letters Patent and making of Ehe same.
To whom it may concern Be it known that we, ARETUS A. WILDER and JOHN WILDER, of Detroit, in the county of Wayne, and Stateof Michigan, have'invented a new and useful Improvement inMachines for Cleansing Clothes; and we do declare that the following is a true and accurate description thereof,'reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked lthereon, and being a part of this specification.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of our invention.
Figure 2 is a sectional view of the same, upon the line :l: x in iig. 1.
Like letters indicate like parts in each gure.
My invention consists in providing a rotating washing-machine, with a hollow journal, connecting with its interior, to which journal a drip-pipe is attached, for the purposes hereinafter described. j The revolving case A is snpportedupon aframe, B, suitably constructed and braced to support the case which contains the clothes and wash-water.
This case is formed by two circular heads,- C and D, connected together by suitable staves, in such a manner as to make a water-tight box,'into which the wash# water and clothes may be introduced through a door,
E, which is properly packed with India rubber, felt, or other appropriate material to form water-tight joints, and provided with any appropriate fastening to secure said door in place. p
The ease is suspended upon journals, turning on suitablebcarings on the frame, and these journals are attached, instead of to the centre of the heads, near the point of juncture between the sides vand heads of the case, the journal at one end of the case being near the upper, while the opposite journal is near the lower side of the case, as shown in the drawings, for the purpose of giving an eccentric motion to said ease.
The journal F is made with a tubular. opening, traversing its entire length, thus forming a free atmospheric communication from the outside to the interior chamber, and preventing any atmospheric distnrbance on the part of the air' withinv the chamber resisting the movement of the clothes and water with the rotation of the case, which is e'ii'ected by means of the winchG. j
Journalled upon the end of this tubular shaft, and attached to the frame, is thedrip-pipe H, forthe purpose of conveying to any proper receptacle any water that may enter said shaft in the rotation of the case.
As one importantv object sought to be effected by this improvement is the thorough cleansing ofthe clothes without rubbing them between surfaces, a treatment found in practice to be so detrimental to the fabric, itis important to provide a sufficient gentle friction, in connection with theagitation of the water in which they are immersed, to effect the requisite purification. I I
This is done by means of the wedge-shaped ribs I, two of 4which areatt'ached to the inner walls of the case, at opposite sides, and placed, relatively to cach other, as shown'in Iig. 2 of the drawings, so that the clothes, with the rotation ofthe case, shall be forced to travel from end to end of the saine, the weight of the clothes compressing into the lower angular corners of the case, with each revolution, and'allowing the water to percolate through the meshes of the fabrics.
-It 'will not bel expedient to turn the winch rapidly, so that the centrifugal Aforce holdingthe clothes at the upper angular corner of the case, will prevent the proper action of the machine,
What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- A j The combination, in a washing-machine, of the cylindrical case A, withv door E, ,turning eccentrically upon journals, and provided with wedge-shaped ribs I, hollow journal F,d1ippipe H, and handle G, all arranged and'operating as herein described.'A
- A. A. WILDER.
