DRAIN BOARD. APPLICATION FILED MAY I9, 1921.
Patented Oct. 25, 1921.
HANS HANSEN. OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI.
DRAIN-BOARD.
Application filed May 19, 1921.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, HANS HANSEN, a citiv zen of the United States, residing at Kansas City, in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Drain-Boards, of which the following is a description, referring to drawings which accompany this specification.
The invention relates to wringers used in laundry operations and refers to the drain board attachments to the housings of the wringers and to specified functions thereof as later described.
Figure 1 is a top view of a wringer showing the drain boards employed therewith. Fig. 2 is an isometric view of the stationary drain board. Fig. 3 is an isometric view of the pivotally mounted drain board. Fig. 1 is a front view of the wringer seen in Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a rear view of the wringer seen in Fig. 1. Fig. 6 is an isometric view of the wringer housing. Fig. 7 is ,a vertical section of the wringer combination seen in Fig. 1 as arranged for wringing operations. Fig. 8 is a vertical section of the wringer combination seen in Fig. 1 showing drain board pivoted. Fig. 9 is a vertical section of the wringer combination seen in Fig. 1 showing pivoted drain board released;
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout all the figures of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, the wringer 10 includes a bottom roll 11 and a top roll 12 arranged in parallelism and mounted in bearings contained within the right and left side housing members 13, 14. Either or both of the rolls 11 and 12 are gear driven in the customary manner.
Rigid with each housing member 13 and 14 .are portions 15, 16 respectively to which the drain board members are attached as disclosed. The portions 15 and 16 project rearwardly from the housing members 13, 14 to form the downwardly sloping top edge surfaces 17, 18 respectively, and upon which sloping surfaces the drain board normally rests.
The drain board 20 at the front of the wringer is preferably flanged along the sides 21, 22 and rear 23 for stiffening and water shedding purposes and is permanently secured by rivets 24 or otherwise to the front portions 15 and 16 and in the downwardly sloping position as indicated.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 25, 1921. Serial No. 470,897.
The drain board 19 has flanged sides 25, 25 perforated as at 26 to receive a bolt. The portions 15 .and 16 are each provided with slots 27 and 28 which are situated beneath and parallel with the sloping top edge portions 17, 18.
The drain board 19 in Fig. 7 is supported in the sloping position indicated, being disposed upon the sloping edges 17, 18. The upper end 29 of the drain board 19 preferably continues beyond the upper end of the flanges 25. Slots 30, 80 are made down ward in the upper portion 29 adjacent the flanges 25, as disclosed in Fig. 3. It will be noted that the plane of the top sloping edges 17, 18 will coincide with the axis of the roll 11, if produced. Thumb bolts 31, 32 passed through the perforations 26, 26 and the slots 27, 28 have nuts 33 engaging therewith. In Fig. 7 the bolts have been screwed up tight 011 their respective nuts with the drain board upper end 29 contiguous to the bottom roll 11. The rolls are revolved in the direction of the arrows as the wet washings are progressing between the rolls as fed in the direction of the horizon tal arrow. The water is collected and discharged by the drain board 20 into a proper receptacle. As the wrung clothes pass between the rolls, they normally slide clownwardly upon the drain board 19 into a basket or other receptacle.
Occasionally however, clothes in wringing operations tend to travel around the bottom roll; this clogs the rolls. In my invention the close proximity of the edge 29 to the bottom roll 11 tends to minimize this tendency since it is easier for the clothes to continue down the drain board 19 than to pass between the roll 11 and the edge 29. If, however, the wrung clothes continue around the bottom roll, then they would force the drain board 19 to pivot on the bolts 31, 32 till the edge 29 rested upon the edge 23, in order to produce a gap 8 1 sufiiciently wide for the clothes to pass. The slots 30, 3O straddling the edges 17, 18 permit this pivoting. This condition is illustrated in Fig. 8 and the new position of the drain board 19 serves as a signal to the operator that the wringer is not properly functioning. The wringer is stopped, the thumb bolts 31, 32 then being released, the drain board 19 is dropped to the position seen in Fig. 9, the slots 27, 28 being sufficiently elongated to permit dropping the edge 29 entirely free of the bunched washing. The rolls are then reversed in movement and the clogged washing unwound from the rolls. Therolls being then stopped the drain board 19 is again slipped back to the position seen in Fig. 7 and wringing operations resumed.
Such modifications may be employed as lie within the scope of the appended claims. Having fully described my invention what I. now claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: V
' 1. In a 'wringer', side housing members and wringer rolls in operative arrangement therein, each side housing member having anextended base portion provided with a slot therein and a downwardly sloping upper edge thereon; a drain board pivotally mounted upon bearings arranged in said slots' said drainboard being normally disposed upon the sloping edges and with its own upper edge lying contiguous to the bottom roll of the wringer.
2. In a wringer, Side housing members and wringer rolls in operative, arrangement therein, each sidehousing member having a rearwardly extending base portion provided with an elongated slot therein and a downwardly sloping upper edge thereon, said slot being inparallelism with said sloping edge; a drain. board fixedly fastened to said housing members forward of said rolls, a second drain board pivotally mounted upon bearings arranged in said slots, the said second drain board being normally disposed upon the sloping edges and with its own upper edge lying contiguous to the bottom roll of the wringer but adapted to pivot away therefrom to a supported contact upon the upper and inner portion of the fixed drain board for the puroses specified. r 1
