m vw 2 Wig/4 M H m mwb Q .aa if VIRGIL A. WHITE, OF NEWVTON, IOWA; E. C. OGG, ADMINISTRATOR 0F SAID XVHITE, DECEASED, ASSIGNOR TO SARAH J. WHITE, OF NEWTON, IOWA.
GEARING.
Application filed July 26, 1909.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, VIRGIL A. WVHITE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newton, in the county of Jasper and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Gearing, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is first, to reduce the power required to impart reciprocating rotary motion to the vertical shaft in the center of the tub and the agitator carried by the shaft; second, by the same mechanism that operates the agitator to simultaneously actuate a vertical shaft at the side of the tub and a balance wheel at the bottom of the tub and at an increased speed as required to coact with the applied power to multiply that power in the operation of the machine; third, in the arrangement and sub-combinations of elements to produce a simple, strong, durable and efficient machine specially adapted to be manually and advantageously operated.
My invention consists in the portable machine hereinafter set forth, pointed out in my claim and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a. top View of the machine and shows the mechanism for applying manual force for operating the central shaft that carries the agitator. Fig. 2 is a bottom View of the machine that shows the mechanism for operating the balance wheel in combination with the mechanism for operating the agitator. Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view of the machine and shows the arrangement and combination of all the parts. Fig. 4 is an enlarged detail View that shows a guide for the reciprocating rack bar on top of the machine.
The letter A designates a tub supported upon legs B fixed thereto. C is a cover hinged to the fixed portion D of the cover on top of the tub.
The numeral 10 designates the vertical shaft mounted in the center of the hinged cover O by means of a fiat bar 12 fixed on the cover and provided with a bearing in its center and an arched bearer 13 fixed on top of the cover as shown in Fig. 3, or in any suitable way as required for retaining the shaft 10 perpendicular when in operation.
A fiat plate 14 having integral bearings at Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 14, 1910.
Serial No. 510,156.
its outer edge is fixed on the stationary cover portion D. A gear wheel 15 is mounted in one of said integral bearings of the plate 14. A shaft 16 having a small gear wheel 17 at its top is mounted in the other integral bearing of the flat plate 12 and provided with a fixed crank handle 18 for rotating the wheels 15 and 17 by hand. (A modified manner of mounting the shaft 15 and wheels 16 and 17 is shown in Fig. 8 where a bracket fixed to the side of the tub A is used in place of the fixed flat plate 14 on top of the tub.)
A rack bar 19 is pivoted to the wheel 15 to engage a gear wheel 20 fixed to the top of the shaft 10 and a guide 21 for the rack bar is pivoted on top of the fiat bar 12, as clearly shown in Fig. 4, in such a manner that it will vibrate with the reciprocating rack bar 19 and by means of a shoulder 22 at its outer end will retain the rack bar engaged with the gear wheel. By this peculiar arrangement and combination of elements a plurality of revolutions of the crank handle 18 the shaft 10 and the agitator 23 carried thereby are readily produced by hand power.
At the bottom of the tub is fixed to the legs B a frame 24 in which is a central bearing for the shaft 16 and on the bot-tom of said shaft is a gear wheel 25 and to the inward extension 26 of said frame is fixed a shaft 27 that has a fixed pinion 28 that en gages the gear wheel 25 and to the lower end of the shaft 27 is fixed a balance wheel 29 in such a manner that by the rotation of the crank handle 18 and the shaft 16 a plurality of revolutions are imparted to the balance wheel 29 and its speed, relatively to the wheel 15, greatly increased as required for advantageously utilizing the power of the balance wheel for diminishing the hand power applied to the crank handle for operating the machine.
A support 30 for a clothes wringer is fixed on top of the tub and fitted t0 the edge of the hinged cover C as required to allow the cover to be opened and closed.
Having thus set forth the purposes of my invention and the manner of its construction and operation the advantages and utility thereof will be obvious.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters-Patent, is:
A gearing for a washing machine comprising a central heater shaft, a gear Wheel on said shaft, a rack, a second gear Wheel to which said rack is eccentrically connected, a second vertical shaft at the side of the machine upon Which said second gear Wheel is mounted, a third shaft, a pinion on said third shaft and meshing with said second gear Wheel, a handle on said third shaft, and a balance Wheel geared to said third shaft whereby impetus 0f the shaft is maintained. 1%
