IMPROVEMENT IN wAsi-nue-naoniaes;
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 158,770, dated January 12, 1875; application riled June 13, 1374.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, HORACE G. WILLIAMS, of Hamilton, in the county of Marion and State of Iowa, have invented anew and useful Improvement in VVashing-lVIachme, of which the following is a specification:
Figure 1 is a vertical section of my improved machine, taken through the, line a: m, Fig. 2.
Fig. 2 is a top view of the same, part'of the cover being removed. Fig. 3 is a detail sec,- tional View on line y y of Fig. 2.
Similar letters'of reference indicate correspondin g parts. i
The object of my invention is to provide an improved.washing'inaohinaeto be attached to cross-bar and its attachments can be readilydetached from the tub when desired. It F G is the presser or rubber, which is made of such a size as to readily enter the tub A. E is a cross-bar, to the lower side of which are attached a number of parallel bars, F, of such lengthsthat their ends may reach to, or nearly to, the sides of the tub A. To the upper sides of the ends of the bars F are attached two curved bars, G, or sections of a rim, to prevent the clothes from getting over the ends of 4 v the bars F. To the center of the bar E is rig-- idly attached the lower end of a shaft, H, which passes up through a hole in the crossbar B, and through a hole in the guide-arm I,
,formed upon or attached to the bracket or standard J, attached to the bar 13 a little at one side of its center. The upper end of the shaft H is bent at right angles to pass through its lower end rests upon the bar .B, orupon a plate attached to said bar 13. To the sleeve L is rigidly attached, or upon it is formed, an arm, M, which projects outward and upward, and to theiouter end of which is pivoted the end of the lever K; The sleeve L and arm M thus serve as a fulcrum to the said lever, so
that, by raising the free end of the lever, the presser E 1* G- may be raised from the bottom of the tub A, the shaft sliding freely through the sleeve at the same time that it turns with it. To the sides of the cross-bar B are hinged the parts of the cover N.
In using the machine the clothes are placed upon the bottom of the 'tub A, a sufficient quantity of soap and water are putin,;and the free end of the lever K is worked up and down, which alternately presses the water out of the clothes, and allows them to again become saturated. MAS the lever K is being worked up and down itis, at the same time, moved to one orthe other side, so that the presser E F G- may strike the clothes each time in a new place.
By this construction the clothes can be washed quickly and thoroughly.
.1 do not claim a vertical shaft. or rod and a lever so combined with a rubber or ribbed disk that it may be situated, and also raised vertically, within the tub 5 but The combination of the standard J ,wsleeve L, guide-arm I, and fulcrum-bar M with the lever K and vertical shaft H, attached to the presser, all constructed and arranged substan tially as and for the purpose described.
HORACE G. WILLIAMS.
