Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 8, 1910.
Application'filed June 12, 1909. Serial No. 501,860.
To all whom it may concern: 1
Be it known that 1, JAMES MoGREeoR, asubject of the King of Great Britain, and resident of Fordsburg, near Johannesburg, Transvaal, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Washboiler Attachments, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a new or improved device or means for washing or cleansing clothes such as wearing apparel, bedclothes, table linen or other domestic fabrics, or for other textile fabrics or fibers or articles made therefrom.
The object of the invention is to construct a device in which a continuous circulation of the hot water is obtained through the clothes.
The invention will be more fully described by aid of the accompanying draw ing, wherein Figure 1 represents a front elevation of the device. Fig. 2 is a plan of Fig. 1 without the screen or shield (17 or with it removed. Fig. 3 is a view of the spiral passage or channel (9) or a view of the cone (3) as seen from the underside. Fig. 4 is a sectional elevation of the contrivance comprising the cone 3, spiral passage or channel 9, and tubular piece 10. Fig. 5 is a plan of the screen or shield 17. Fig. 6 is an elevation of Fig. 5. Fig. 7 is a plan of the cone 3 showing the curved vanes 16. Fig. 8 is a sectional elevation of the deflector 12, and Fig. 9 is a plan of Fig. 8 as seen from the underside.
l-is the vessel or receptacle for the clothes and water. It is shown as a hollow cylinder although it may have any other desired shape. The lower end of the cylinder 1 is closed by means of a conical bottom 2 and the top may be left open as shown or be fitted with any suitable cover providing suitable outlets for the steam. The vessel 1 may be placed on an open fire, on a stove, or the heat be applied to the bottom and lower portion thereof in any other suitable manner.
3 represents the contrivance located inside the vessel 1 above the conical bottom 2. This contrivance as shown more particularly in connection with Fig. 4, comprises a truncated conical piece to the underside of which is soldered or otherwise suitably fixed a spirally disposed strip or piece of metal 5, which as shown in Fig. 3 is attached at a point indicated at 6 in the base rim of the cone 3 and terminates at a point 7 in the hole 8 formed at the center of the cone at the top, so that when the contrivance is arranged in position over the conical bottom 2 it forms a continuous spiral passage or channel 9 from the side walls of the vessel 1 to the central hole 8. In the central hole 8 is soldered or otherwise suitably fixed a short hollow cylindrical or other suitable tubular piece 10. Over this piece 10 is fitted (see Fig. 1) the vertical pipe or tube 11, which latter extends to within a' short distance of the top of the vessel 1. To the top of the pipe or tube 11 is attached a deflect ing shield which as shown in connection with Figs. 1 and 8 comprises a right hollow cone 12 to which on the inside is soldered or otherwise attached an inverted smaller cone 13.
14 are short legs or projections which serve as clips or supports for attaching the deflector to the upper end of the pipe 11.
A passage 15 is formed around the inside of the larger cone 12 and the top of the pipe 11 through which the uprising current of Water flows to be deflected by the internal walls of the cone 12 on to the top of the clothes in the vessel 1.
The device as above described is complete in itself but I preferably combine therewith as shown in connection with Figs. 7 and 4 curved vanes 16 for conducting the water to the base rim of the cone 3 and for imparting thereto a rotary motion in the direction the water flows in its passage through the spiral passage or channel 9. These vanes 16 as shown in connection with Fig. 7 may be soldered or otherwise suitably fiXed to the top of the cone 3. They are attached at one end to the cone 3 or to the hollow tubular piece 10, and then downwardly curved to the base rim. Any suitable number of these vanes 16 may be pro vided on the top of the cone 3.
As shown in Figs. 4, 5 and 6, a perforated or wire gauze screen or shield 17 is arranged over the curved vanes 16 to prevent contact between the clothes and vanes and to allow the water which passes through the interstices or perforations in the screen or shield 17 to fiow freely down the curved channels 18 formed between the vanes 16.
It will be apparent that the vanes 16 might be attached to the underside of the screen 17 instead of to the top of the cone 3.
Although I show the Vessel fitted with one of the water circulating devices it will be apparent that two or more may be provided in the one vessel.
What I claim as my invention and desire to protect by Letters Patent is 1. In a Wash boiler attachment, in combination, a base member having on the underside a spiral passage for conducting the water from the outside to the center thereof, a tubular member in communication with said spiral passage, through which member the uprising current of water flows, a deflector at the top of said tubular member, and means on top of the aforesaid base member for conducting the'down-flowing water to the outside of said base member and for imparting rotary motion thereto in the di- 1 rection in which the water flows in its passage through the aforesaid splral passage.
2; In a wash boiler attachment, in combination, a base member having on the underside a spiral passage for conducting the water from the outside to the center thereof, a tubular member in communication with said spiral passage, through which member the uprising current of water flows, a de flector at the top of said tubular member,
curved vanes on top of the aforesaid base member for conducting the down-flowing Water to the outside of said base member and for imparting rotary motion thereto in the direction in which the water flows in its passage through the aforesaid spiral passage, and a perforated guard above said vanes. V
3. In a wash boiler attachment, in combination, abase member comprising a conical part having a central hole and a spiral member fixed to theui'nderside of said conical part and providing a spiral passage for conducting the water from the outside of the conical part to the aforesaid central hole, a vertical tubular member fixed t0 the top of the conical part around the central hole through which tubular member the uprising current of water fiows, curved vanes fixed on top'of said conical part for conducting the down-flowing water to the base rim of said part and for imparting rotary motion thereto in the direction in which therwater flows in its passage through. the aforesaid spiral passage, a conical perforated guard above said vanes, and a deflector fixed tothe top of the aforesaid tubular member.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribingv witnesses.
