Letters Patent No. 94,004, dated August 24, 1869.
IMPRO'V'ED WASHIING-MACHINE The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JEROME B. KING, of the city, county, and State of New York, haveinvented a new and useful Improvementin lashing-Machines; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and
'exact description thereof', which will enable others skilled in the art to make and ns'e the same, reference being -had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements in machines for washing clothes, and has for its object to provide an eicient and economical machine.
It consists in the peculiar construction and arrangement of the parts of the same, as will be hereinaiter more fully described.
Figure l represents a transverse sectional elevation of' a machine constructed according to my invention.
Figure 2 represents a top view, partly broken, with the exterior case and one panel of the expansible case opened. Y
Figure 3 represents a detail view.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A represents the water-holding tub or case, which may be ot' rectangular or other form, within which I provide, in a horizontal position, a cylinder, B, ar ranged upon journals, for rotation, to be driven by a hand-crank, orotheiE means. Around this cylinder-I provide-a casing, C, made in segmental sections, each so arranged a's'to be capable of movement toward or from the cylinder, and being confined against the circular heads or supports D, coincident with the cylinder, at each end, by elastic springs or belts E, when not pressed away by the clothes between them. The saidheads and segmental sections are so arranged as to permit the surface ofthe cylinder and segments to come close- 1y together, but not suiciently to interfereI with the I.otation of the cylinder. The -ends of eac-h section are provided with segmental blocks F, lapping by the ends of the cylinder, to prevent the clothes from esicaping over the end of the cylinder. y
One of the sections, as C, may be au'anged to be opened, to place the clothes to be washed within the expansible case, and for this' reason, may be made shorter than the others, to work inside the bands E, and hinged'to one of the others, as shown at G, and fastened in the closed position by a hook and staple, button, or other suitable device.
To support the `door, at the spaces Where the endsof the hinged panel C or door are shortened, guards H, projecting from the heads I), are provided, or the door may be supported in any o ther preferred way.
The external surface of the cylinder, and the iu-` ternal surface of the case, are preferably grooved, to facilitate carrying the clothes around between them, and whereby the squeezing and rubbing-action on the clothes is greatly increased.
Having thus described my invention,
- What I-claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isl The washing-machine, constructed, as described, of
the segmental sections C, one of which forms a cover,
held tothe rotating cylinder B, by means of the elastic bands E, and .resting at their o uter ends upon the end disks D, bearing the guards H, each segment C being provided with end segments Fwhich are adapted to .fit between the ends of the cylinder B and the disks'D, all arranged as described, for the purpose specified.
The above specification of my invention signed by me, this 15th day of March, 1869.
J'. B. KING.
