Latas Patent No. 95,565, dated october 5, 1869.
IMPROVED WASHING-MACHINE.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
.To all whom il: may concern.-
Be it known that I, E. HALL Govan, of` the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new :and 'improved lashing-Machine; ,and I dohereby declare the following to be a full and exact description thereof, reference being had toI the accompanyl'ingl; drawings, making part of this specification. in W HC 1- Figure l is a vertical sectionl of a machine embodylng my invention.
Figure 2, a plan view, with part broken away, show ing the vertical ribs. I
Figure 3, a plan view of the dashers, removed.
l l Figur(I 4, a view showing the funnel-shaped thim- Like let-ters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all of theigures.
My invention has for its object the cleansing' of clothing without the vlaborious process of rubbing, by the agitation of currents of water, produced by a suitable rotary device, as hereinafter' described.
As represented in the drawings- A is a vessel, made of a cylindrical orauy other suitable form, having a removable top or cover, B. I
Around the interior sides of the vessel are aiiixed four or more vertical ribs c c c c.
Upon a suitable step or bearing, G, in the centre ot the bottom, is arranged a shaft, D, which passes through the ,cover B, and is Iprovided upon its upper end with a bevelled pinion, H, which gears with the driving-wheel'l, 'having a crank, M, on its axis K, by which motion is imparted thereto.
This shaft is 'surrounded by a sleeve, o, which is alixed, to 'a cross-piece at the top of the ves'sel, so as to maintain it in a fixed position, thus preventing the tendency of the clothing to follow the current ofthe water, and become' wound around the shaft during its revolution. v
'At the lower extremity of the shaft D isaxed a disk, E, and upon this, extending radially from the shrft, are four, or any desirable number of dashers, h"
These dashels are concavely formed at their sides or laces, or so inclined as to elevate or force the water upward in a vel/tical direction during their revolution'.4 .Being alike ou both sides, the satire result will follow if the dashers yare rotated in either direction, but if preferred, they may be made withone side only curved or inclined, with the same effect if rotated always inl the same direction. v l
Attached to the dashers, or to the upper side v,of
-the disk, are one or'more double-mouthed funnels or the shaftl) is put in motion by revolving. the crank v The curved or inclined surfaces of the dashers, in theirrevolution through the water, force upward that portion ofthe liquid that they meet in their course, While those portions which are. immediately infront 0f the aperture of the funnel or thirnble, pass through it, producing a horizontal current.
By this arrangement, two diverse and opposite currents, one vertical,- and the other horizontal, are pre duced, while' the xed ribs c c c c arrest the circulatory current, and maintain a counter or reverse horizontal one.v y,
The effect of' these three agencies is to cause a violent agitation ofthe liquid, which eiectually .removes all impurities from thefabnics subjected to its opera'' tion in a rapid manner, and with a slight expenditure of labor. Y
I construct the cylinder of the vessel with'a compound bottom, consisting f the part K and the subdisk or supporting part J.
The legs L are secured lto the latter piece by bolts or otherwise, when the vessel is placed upon it, and may be attached, if desired, bynails, driven 'into-the staves or sides, from the under side of the part J.
This invention is simple in construction, and the operation of cleansing is morerapid and effectual than the ordinary means, while clothing-of the most delle cate texture can be washedl without liability of in- Jury.
What I claim as 'my invention, and desireto secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In combination wnuvule shaft 1),-disk E, and A inclined dashers F, the stationary` sleeve o, substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore described.
2. In combination with the dashers F F/and disk E, the funnel-shaped thimbles, substantially as shown and described. lVitnesses: EQHALL COVEL.
