till 'r i l PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN KJFLSHINSKY, 01E HOBOKEN, NEW JERSEY, ASSIGNOB TO NEW JERSEY CAN COMPANY, OF VTEEE'IAVTKEII, NEW? 3' A CORPOEATZON OF NEW JERSEY.
STEAM: iFJ'ftSHING-IVIACHINE.
Application filed July 28, 1919.
To all who mat may concern: 1
lie it known that l, dorm liasnrnsnr, a citizen ot the United Fatates, residing at l'lobolrcn, in the county oi l-luoson and o oi New Jersey, have invented cert tain new and useful Improvements in Steam W ashing-liflachines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in washing machines and one object is the provision of a machine which will subject the clothes to a thorough and even action of the water in the operation of washing to entirely remove all dirt or soil from the clothes and to prevent injury thereto.
.llnother object of my invention is the provision of washing machine which will permit ready and instant access to the clothesreceiving drum to permit insertion and r moval of the clothes therefrom and which can be operated without tiring or fatiguing the user.
Still another object of my invention is the provision of a wa hing machine which will possess merit in point of simplicity, durability and cheapness of manufacture, which will be of small size and large capacity and which generally, in all important respects, will prove thoroughly efficient and practical.
To attain the desired objects the invention consists of a washin machine embodying novel details of construction and combination of parts, substantially as shown, described and particularly defined and distinguished by the claim.
For a more complete understanding of the invention, its construction, operation and advantages, reference is had to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 represents a central vertical sectional. view of a washing machine constructed in accordance with my invention, and
Fig. 2 represents a top plan view of the machine, the cover being removed to show more clearly the form and construction of the clothes-receiving drum.
The invention is of the simplest possible construction and comprises a receptacle 1 adapted to receive suds-water 2 and provided with a discharge spigot 3 for draining said receptacle, and fitted upon the mouth a of the receptacle is a flange 5 of the cover 6, such cover 6 having a flat top 7 adapting the cover for use as a convenient and handy receiver for the washed clothes specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 26, 1921.
Serial No. 313,748.
or garments. The upper edge of the receptacle is provided with recesses S which provide bearings for the trunnions 9 and 10 forming a mounting for the clothes-receiving drum, which will be hereinafter more particularly described, the trunnion 10 being formed with a crank 11 having an operating handle 12.
From this construction it will be observed that the drum is suspended in the receptacle and is given a rotary motion about a horizontal axis through the medium of the crank and the drum is of peculiar and novel formation; said drum being the important feature of my invention and consisting of a central cylindrical portion 13 and end members in the form of truncated cones 1a. The drum as an entirety is made of sheet metal and is provided over 'ts entire area with perforations 15 to permit entrance of the cleansing liquid through the entire drum to insure complete saturation of the clothes or garments contained in said drum, the drum having one of its cone-shaped ends 14 hinged at 16 to the cylindrical central portion 13 and provided with a spring catch 17 for en gaging the rim 18 on the hinged end member for securing such member in closed position.
This construction permits the garments or articles to be washed to be easily placed in the drum and retained therein-at the same time permitting their instant removal after being cleansed.
As illustrated in Fig. 2, the members 9 and 10 are arranged horizontally and are connected to opposite sides of the annular drum 13 so that the drumand the coneshaped ends 14 will revolve about a horizontal axis.
In operation the articles to be washed are placed in the perforated drum and the cover fastened. Upon rotation of the. drum through the medium of the hand crank, the drum revolves in the water and forces the water through every portion of the garments and simultaneously the rotation of the drum causes a suiiicient agitation or action to entirely cleanse the clothes while the entire inner surface of the drum, as clearly shown in Fig. 1, is free of obstructions or protrudportions, thus positively preventing any wear and tear or other injury to the clothes.
It will be noted that the rotation of the drum can be accomplished Without fatigue and a rapid and thorough cleansing is insured. The hinged end of the drum is disposed in such relation to the receptacle that it will open upward and outward and be supported upon the rim of the receptacle thus retaining the drum from movement and exposing the entire inner portion to insure easy access thereto for filling the drum with articles to be washed and for removing such articles after the cleansing operation.
The washing machine is preferably made of sheet metal and of the desired size to be placed upon the top of a stove to heat the water used in washing. It will be noted that the structure, while capable of large capacity, may be small in size and light in W6l l1t to make handling of it easy.
aving thus described the invention, What is claimed as new is:
A Washing machine comprising a receptacle; a perforated horizontally arranged drum disposed Within the receptacle and inclusive oi? an intermediate annular portion, an end member rigidly secured to said an nular portion and a hinged en member carried by said annular portion, said drum being provided with means for locking said hinged end member; trunnions extending radially from opposite sides or said annular portion and rotatably passing through said receptacle one of said trunnions being provided with an operating handle; and a cover applied to said receptacle, the hinged end member of said drum being adapted to rest upon the upper end of said receptacle when open.
In testimony whereof I my signature.
