To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. 'Voss, a citizen of the United States, residing at Davenport, in the county of Scott and State of Iowa, have invented new and useful Improyements in. Mechanical Movements for 'Wringers, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to mechanism for actuating washing machine wringers, and particularly that class or type of machines having a momentum or balance-Wheel that assists in the reversal movement of the agitator, and a wringer driven. thereby, mechanism adaptedto be actuated either manually or through the medium of a suitable motor (electric, gas-engine or other power) for operating the same.
In operating Wringers of this particular type, it often becomes necessary to reversethe wringer or to stop it instantaneously, or to operate the wringer independently of the other mechanism, and vice'versa.
It is, therefore, an object of my invention to accomplish these functions in an efficient manner, and at the same time to provide novel mechanism for reversing the operat ing gears for the wringer.
Still another object of my invention is to. so construct and arrange the various clemerits of the driving and reversing meehanism that they may all be disposed or mounted below the'bottom of the tub or suport so that the number of parts to be carried y the top or cover thereofis reduced to a minimum, and said mechanism will be out of the way of the operator.
Another object is to provide effective means for mounting and recessing the bracket upon which the lever for manually operating the mechanism is pivoted.
.These and other objects 1 accomplish by the means and in the manner hereinafter fully described and as particularly pointed out in the claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, in which-- Figure l is alvertical side elevation of a washing-machine showing my im rovemcuts applied thereto. Fig. 2 a simi ar view on the opposite side of the tub. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section taken on line 3 3, .l ig. .1, below the plane of the bottom of the tub. Fig. 4: is a fmgmentary view of the lett- States for mechanical movement :['or washing machines, filed by me January 18, 1913, Serial No. 742,785,, and the niccl'ianism herein shown relating to agitator ruminating ele ments need not/h e particularly described, in this spcciiicatiom Suiiice it to mention, in a general way that, the support for my improved wringrer mechanism comprises the usual tub ft. ha ing a hinged cover 13 in which an anil'ator-slmft C is journalechand which reslsupoil and is elevated above the floora suitable distance by means of legs I), thatmay ,or may not be provided with rollers on their lower ends, as desired, which lg'ggs are connected together and braced by a rectangulanslmped metallic frame (I. The agibuor-shaft (l is given a rotary reciprocablc movement by suitable mechanism that is welt-known in laundry apparatus and need not be described, although the same is illustrated in the drawings, it being imnuzlcrial in what manner the same is constructed, or of what mechanism it consists in so far as the objects of my in'iprovements are convex-m ll. 'lhe mechanism is. preferably, driven through the medium of a vertically disposml lever-G of the first class tulcrunied mediate its ends between the lateral pivotal lugs 1 oil a Verti- (rally disposed ll'lill'liti 1/ serured to xlu': side of the tub. lirarli-et 1, as shown in detail in Fig. El, preferably. comprises a suitable elolr gated casting tuning: an upper substantially T-shaped uuunbor and a burnbifurcated or arms of the upper nuuuber are. preferably. curved to conform lo and lit the side of the tub to which the same is secured by means oi screws or bolls tapped through openings in the ends of the same. The bifurcations 5/" of the lower member extend to a The transverse tion to the small idle-gear ,l l, locks Wll1ll a large ldle-gearll through the fin saves point in the horizontal plane of the tub 'theq en ds of sha t are secured and which bottom and are then bent iiuvardly and updcr the lower ends oithe tub-stoves, and in order to strengthen the same the ends of these lugs are connected together by a horizontally disposed cross-bar 51 substantially as shown. This'construction considerably lessens the strain on the bolts and avoids to a great extent the pulling out or loosening of said bolts.
Motion. is nected at. one end to the operating lever Gr, above described, and the opposite end to a suitable crank :2 that projects from the outer end of a sleeve X, which latter is loosely mounted on the end of a horizontally disposed main drive-sh aft j ournaled at one end in said sleeve X of the crank engaging bearings at, and at the other end in bearings 5 supported upon the frame (Z, hereinbetore mentioned. Crank 2 is adapted to be connected with or disconnected. from shaft 3 through the V medium of clutch; members 16 l7 thrown in and out by bar 241,, and when the machine is hand drivem it is actuated through the medium of gearing which enables me to utilize the momentum of a spceded up balance-Wheel loosely mounted on said sha When the machine is actuated by a iitable motor 8 it is done through. the medium. of a. belt 7 directly ongaging the balance-wheel and, in this event the gearing referred to imparts a reduced speed to shaft TV hen the clutch is operated, recessedmember 1?, which constitui s the female member thereof, is engaged by the projections 1.6 on the opposuig' annular edge of the hub of a gear 15, which isiast on shatt- 3. This gearengages and imparts its mowhich intermedium of a tenon and groove engagement of the contacting ends oft-heir hubs at 13. and the larger idle-gear 11, engages and actuates the pinion l0 loosely mounted on shaft Pinion 10 has its hub interlocked with the adjacent end of the hubot a flywheel 6, and imparts the speeded up move ment of gear theretoyand the momentum of this flywheel regulates and greatly assists the work of: moi "in o; the lever back and forth during the operation of the machine. The hubs otthe fly-Wheel and of pinion l0 and gear 15 are extended so as to prevent longitudinal movement of the two former between gear 15 and bearings 5 of shaft 3. Idlers l land 11, are. preferably. loosely mounted on a stationary shat l5? and their hubs are likewise extended so to fill up the space and prevent loiigitruliria movement thereof between the be i lower half oi? the casing. 'it'ltlHlLWlliGll hook untransmitted to'a pitman 1 con-- cutting out a wringer mounted on two'idle-bevel-gears and posite latcd and driven either Sh a it 11 and l0 and isaty 1.5, 14, tached to and supported by the frame Shaft extends beyond its bearings has suitable driving and reversing gear mechanism for imparting motion to and for 4 the tub. This gear mechanism, preferably, comprises 31; that face each other and are loosely mounted on shaft 3 and. are normally disengaged therefrom and independent thereof. The'teeth of these gears are comparatively small and are spaced as far apart as possible .so as to avoid binding of the same when shifted in one direction or the other. Rigidly secured to and mounted on drive-shaft 3 between these bevel-gears is the counter-part 32, of a clutch, which is preferably, cylindrical and is provided. with recesses or depressions 33, 33, in its ends that are adapted to be engaged by suitable projections made integral with and extend from the adjacent ends of the hubs of bevel-gears 30 and. 31. Meshing with both bevel-gears 80 and 31 another bevehgear 35 that is secured to the lower end of a substantially vertically disposed shaft 36, which latter extends upward. to the wringer. The'lower end. of she t 36 is journaled'in. tl'ie tubular shank of aspiderthat has corresponding arms m. w, projecting in diametrically opposite directions therefronn Whose extremities are turned toward and pivoted to lugs 87 projecting from the spherical casing that in closes the nest of bevel- gears 30, 31 and 35. T his casing, preferably, comprises an upper and alovver hemispherical shell 39 and 40, respectively the latter of which (4:0) has horizontally aliningbearings 41 on its opsides through which said drive-shaft passes. Said casing-is free to be moved or reciprocated longitudinally on the latter without revolving therewith in order to adapt it to be used to move gears '30 and into and out of engagement with the clutch The fact that the outer ends of the hubs of gears 30 and 3'1 engage said casing and pinion prevents said gears moving toward each other, causes one or the other of? said gears to engage clutch 3, when the using is moved one ay or the other in the direction of length of shaft 3, and to take the motion of said shaft, and, as the latter is revolved continuously in one direction during the operating of the machine, one or the other of'said gears will drive pinion 35) in one direction and the other gear rill drive it in the opposite dimotion, and the shaft 36 be thereby rolorward or A back-- may he, and when neither gear 3f: or 1-31. is gagged by clutch 32 the mine ationary. order to bodily more the casing, as
ward the case 8- that are 5and' Leashes d, and make the upper end 44. of this lever spherical or ball-shaped and seat it in a correspondingly shaped depression or socket 45 on the underside of the lower shell 40 ol the casing. This lever 42 is pivotally connected to and is rocked by means of an elongated treadle 46 that extends in a horizontal direction under the tub, and has a foot-plate 46 on its outer end. Near said foot-plate the treadle is pivotally connected to the outer lower end of substantially crescent shaped bell-crank lever 4'7. This bell-crank is pivotedadjacent its upper end to a suitable hanger 4t projecting from frame 03 and has an'upwardly projecting lateral extension or arm 48 to the outer end of which an operating rod 49 is secured in any suitable manner, preferably, by a swivel connection. Rod 4C9 extends upwardly alongside of the tub and terminates at a oint slightly below the horizontal plane of t e top thereof where it passes up through the bottom of a pocket 50, attached to the side of the tub, and is then bent laterally at substantially rightangles to itself and provided with a handle. This lateral portion extends out through a suitable slot 51 in the shell of said pocket, so that, by raising said handle and then turning it, it will catch on the shoulders of saidslot, according as desired. When the foot-treadle is raised or depressed, as the case may be, the gear-casing 4041 will move so that one or the other of gears 30 or 31 will engage clutch 32. The up er end-of bell-crank 47 pivoted to hanger 1 extends beyond its pivot and a coiled contractionspring 5-3 connects the same to the foottreadle.
The upper portion of shaft 36 extends through suitable bearings in a spherical casing 54 and its end inside said casing is provided with a beveled pinion 55 that is in mesh with and drives a beveled pinion 56 secured to the adjacent end of the axle or shaft of the driving roller 57 of a Wringer 58 of conventional construction.
In order to accommodate thebearings of the transmi ssion-rod to the slight reciprocation of the gear-casing 40 -41, I prefer to connect the upper bearing-sleeve 59 to the casing 54 surrounding the Wringer driving gears by means of a universal or swivel joint 60 similar to that illustrated at the lower end of said rod, which it is unnecessary to again describe.
In mounting the motor 8, I prefer to conncct two of the supporting legs of the tub by a cross-bar Y and swing the motor therefrom by means of brackets y that have eyes in their upper ends through which said bar passes. Any slack in the belt 7 may be cent portion of the frame a.
After the laundry has been Washed, the clutch 16+-17 is thrown out which stpps the agitator'or dolly and the loot-treadle L6, or "rod 4:9 is moved so as to shift thecasing 39- i0 longitudinally on shaft 3. This shifting of the casing will move the gears 30 or 3 that the boss of one the same will engage its respective depression in the clutch counter-part 32 which causes the transmission shaft to revolve thereby drive the wringer in a forward or reversed direction through the medium of the gears at the upper end of said transmission shaft. By releasing the foot treadle the clutch nnnnbers become iliscngaged and the Wringer will be stopped almost instantly.
What I claim as new is l. A mechanical movement comprising drive-sl'iaft, beveled gears loosely mounted thcreoi'r a driven-shalt extending at an angle from said drive-shaft, a fixed pinion mounted on said driven-shaft in mesh with said gears, a devi 0 adapted to connect one or the other of said gears to said drive-shaft, and shifting mechanism adapted to alternatcly more said gears into and out of ongagcment with said device' 2.
