Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 8, 1910.
Application filed October 24, 1908. Serial No. 459,365.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, TnoMAs J. BURGESS, a citizen of the United States, residing in Kansas City, and State of Kansas, have invented anew and useful Improvement in Washing-Machines, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a novel pounder which comprises a central tube surrcundedby a cup provided with partitions, said tube having a valve arranged therein for the purpose of drawing air into the cup andfor creating a partial vacuum, so that the clothes will be thoroughly cleaned as the pounder is operated.
With these objects in view my invention consists in the novel features of construction, combination andarrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described and pointed out in the claim.
in the drawing forming a part of this specification :Figure 1 is a perspective view of my machine. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the same showing one of the pounders in section. Fig. 3 is an end view. Fig. i is an inverted plan view ofv one of the pounders.
In carrying out my improved invention, I employ a rectangular shaped vessel A formed of any suitable metahhaving corrugated rubhing plates secured on its sides and ends within the same, and a removable bottom A which can be readily removed. An opening is formed in one end of the vessel for allowing the water to drain oil when desired, and is preferably closed by a plug. The upper end of the vessel is formed with a flange, on which is adapted to rest the top B.' The vessel is supported by a cradle C, so that thebody will be held up off the floor, whereby it can be readily operated, as will be hereinafter fully described. Notches A are formed in the ends ofthe vessel, in which are mounted a crank-shaft D provided with oppositely disposed laterally projecting crank-portions D carrying plungers E adapted to operate upon the clothes placed within the vessel. Each plunger comprises a perforated tube F having a plug secured in its upper end carrying a connecting memin the county of Wyandotte in and the tube I is provided with a central tube portion I of.
adapted to be seated a valve 'J which is normally held on the seat by a coil-spring K, the upper end of which is secured to the plug.
The cup is divided into compartments by partitions H having apertures formed thereprovided with openings above its longitudinal center, so as to allow the air drawn in through the tube F to pass out through the same, so that when on the down stroke of the pounder air will be forced through the clothes and on the up. stroke of the samea partial vacuum will be created so as to suck ment the clothes will be acted upon at all times, as when one pounder is going up, the other is coming down.
For securing the shaft within the notches I provide sliding members K adapted to slide over the notches and hold the shaft in position, and it will be seen by this arrangement the shaft-with the pounderscan be readily removed, in order toplaoe clothes within the vessel, or remove the'same. A
wooden strip is also secure d tothe vessel forming a supporting member for the wrin ger, when it is desired to attach one thereto.
Having thus fully described my invention, what .l claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is A pounder comprising a perforated tube, a cup formed at the lower end of said tube,
her G for connecting it to the crank-por- .tion, and at its lower end a cup II which is the dirt out of the clothes. It will be seen by this arrange-' cup being provided with a central tube.
having openings formed therein and provided with .a valve seat, said cup being divided into compartments by partitions, a valve arranged within said central tube and a spring for holding said valve seated.
THOM as J. BURGESS.
