WASHING-MACHINE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 9, 1909.
of the rotating rubber type, and has for its object the provision of an improved constructlon of rubber consisting of an inverted U-shaped casing open at its ends and havingits lower ends secured to elongated open loops, and a tubular member in the upper portion of the inverted U-shaped casing, the whole structure being secured to a shaft, having a crank-handle secured thereto.
Our invention will be described in detail hereinafter and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of the tub and cover showing the rubber and crankshaft in elevation; Fig. 2, an end view of the rubber; and Fig. 3, a bottom plan view.
In the drawings similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts in the several views.
A indicates the tub of ordinary construction for holding the clothes, and B the top that is secured on the tub in any suitable manner.
1 indicates a vertical shaft journaled in top B and having a crank-handle 2 extending therefrom. The lower end of the shaft 1 is extended horizontally, as shown at 3, and then bent to form an elongated loop 4, with parallel sides 5, and curved ends 6.
7 indicates an inverted U-shaped casing of sheet-metal, open at its ends and having its lower edges bent around the parallel sides 5 of loop 4, as shown at 8, and 9 a tubular member in the upper portion of casing 7, the shaft 1 passing through said casing 7 and tubular member 9 and secured thereto by means of solder or other suitable securing device.
In operation the loop 4 and bent lower edges of easing 7 form the rubbing surface, while the open ends of the casing 7 and tubular member 9 serve to agitate the water and soap suds, the water being thrown out of the ends of the casing by centrifugal force creates a vacuum in the casing which causes a suction of the water up through the clothes into the casing, and this action being continuous causes the clothes to be quickly and thoroughly cleansed. At the same time the tubular member 9 catches the suds at the top of the water and by the agitation incident to the rush of the water out of the two ends of the tube thoroughly mixes the soap and water.
Having thus described our improvement, what we claim is 1. In a washing-machine, a rubber consisting of an inverted U-shaped casing open at its ends, an elongated open loop having parallel sides secured to the lower edges of the casing, and a vertical shaft secured to the casing, substantially as shown and de scribed.
2. In a washing-machine, a rubber consisting of an inverted U-shaped casing open at its ends, an elongated open loop secured to the lower edges of the casing, a tubular member in the upper portion of the casing, and a vertical shaft secured to the casing, substantially as shown and described.
3. A washing-machine comprising a tub, a cover for the tub, a vertical shaft journaled in the cover having a crank-handle on its upper end, the lower end of the shaft formed with a horizontal extension and bent to form an open loop having parallel sides and curved ends, an inverted U-shaped casing secured to the shaft and having its lower edges secured to the parallel sides of the loop, and a tubular member secured to the shaft and located in the upper portion of the casing, substantially as shown and described.
In witness whereof, we have hereunto set our hands in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
