UNITED STATES PATENT (DEEICEo S. W. CLARKE, OF NEW MILFORD, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN WASHING-MACHINES.
Specitication forming part of Letters Patent No. 99,060, dated January 25, 1870.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, S. W. CLARKE, of New Milford, Litcheld county, in the State of Connecticut, have invented certain Improvements in Washing-Machines, of which the following is a specitcation:
This invention consists in the arrangement and combination of the several devices, as hereinafter set forth, for the purposes of a washing-machine and work-table.
Referring to the drawings annexed, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the whole when used as a work-table. Fig. 2 shows the under side of the table top or cover to the machine. Fig. 3 shows the position of the rub-board, rollers, levers, Sto., when the cover is to be put on; Fig. 4, the position of the same parts when used for washing; Fig. 5, a top View of the parts when in the position shown in Fig. 3 Fig. 6, an end view with the cover removed; and Fig. 7 showing the method of attaching the legs of the machine.'- A
Referring to Fig. l, the top of the table is about three feet six inches in length, land two feet two inches in width, the rollers being moved back, letting the handles or levers J J down out of the way. The suds-box B, being in a rectangular form, is supported by four legs, l l, which are secured by the rods 1t R and dowels d d, and braced by the bars N N near the feet. The bars A A connect the springs B Battached to the bars N N with the cross-bar D, thus forming a movable fulcrum for the levers J J.
The apparatus for rubbing the clothes con sists ofthe levers J J, connected together by the cross-bars F and l), and also connected by the standards L L with the rub-board C, which is pivoted to the standards L L by means of the pins M- M projecting from the ends of said rubboard, allowing the rubboard suicient play to accommodate itself to the inequalities of the clothes and the sweep of the connecting-bars A A, the play being governed by the sprin g T attached to the rubboard, and held in place by the pins E E.
The rub-board C plays back and forth over a series .of rollers, H, set in the frame h h, which is elevated on the posts i t', so as to form an inclined plane, on which the clothes are laid, and which frame is held in place by the pins a a fitting into sockets ou the under side ofthe frame.
When the machine is to be used as a table for ironing or other work the cross-bar D is pushed forward into the grooves 7c k, the rollers H moved back to the position shown in Fig. 3, and the levers, rub-board, standards, Sto., placed in the position shown in the same ligure. The cover P is then placed over the whole, the cleats n u dropping outside the ends of the suds-box,' and the cleats n n tting inside the sides of the suds-box, thus keeping it in place, and forming the table, as shown in Fig. l.
By attaching the legs to the suds-box by means ot' the dowels d d and rods R R, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7, the machine can be readily taken apart for shipment.
To the under side of the suds-box is attached the soap-box s, by means ot' a pivot, so that the same may be turned under the box when not in use. m is a plug for drawing of the suds. t
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is* 1. The arrangement and combination of the rubbing-board C, standards L L, pivots M M and E E, levers J J, and spring T, as shown and described.
2.. I also claim the combination ot' the frame h It and its series ot' rollers, inclined as shown, with the devices set forth in the first clause of my claim, the cover P, and the mode of attaching the legs l l l l by means ot' roads R R and dowels fl cl, as set forth.
S. W. CLARKE.
