- Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed May 9, 1907, Serial No. 372,819.
ratentpd Dec. 29, 1908.
To all whom it ma'y concern:
v Be it known that I, WiLLARD C. FOSTER, a
citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Kalamazoo, in thecounty of Kala-' mazoo, State of Michigan, have invented 2.
- new and useful ashing-Machine, of which the'following is a s ecification.
-My invention re ates toforcin a portion of the wash water through the c othes, as a means of removing the dirt from the clothes, in lieu of scrubbing, or agitating.
The objects of my invention are the me chanical means herein described and claimed, to transfer portions of wash water which is in the machlne, onto and through the garments, with ease, speed, force, and volume, and to continue said repetition of the opera.-
' tion of the water afew times until the clothes of the washing machine as when being operated; Fig. 2 a plan of the machine with the.
i vation of the machine with parts broken water spout in cross section.
are clean. Please note this regarding my objects. .Everyth'ing about-my machineincreasing the ease, speed, force, and volume of handling water in, agiven time, onto, and
through the clothes, contributes to those obj ect's.
In-the accompanying drawing formin a part of this specification-Figure lis a pan covers and crank removed Fig. 3 a side eleaway, and parts in section. on dotted line a-.a. inFig. 2, showing'the interior; Fig. a
Referring "to the parts of the drawing pointed out by numerals, the mairiftub 5, of the machine may be made ,of any desirable material. It is open at the top, and'sets on ""the bottomin an upright posltion when in j clothes hole in the main cover, I
eoverchas a rail- 8 on its upperface to-attach a. clothesw'ringer to when used. The design -is to show that a wringer may be used and not a particular construction for holding'it.
o era-tion. .40
I The cover 6, forms really a part of the main w ich are used when machine is in operation.
Muc shorter than the height of the intelri'or of'the'. tub 5, is what, for c-onvenience, -I call a basket, 11. The basket is two or three inches, more or less, smaller all around than the interior of-t e tub'5. The top or upper end of the has et is open, and has Iio -top closure. The basket -11 clears a little It has ,a cover 6,-and 7, both of the bottom of the tub 5. It has a bearing in the center ot the tub 5, on the inner bottom at 1 2, in which it revolves easily. It is attached to the shaft 14, the .latter having easy bearings in the central hole of the cover 6,
when turned by crank 15 Slantingly up and down on the exterior wall of the basket 11, are 8 open spouts 16, separated a little from each other around the basket, between 'it and the interior wall of the tub 5, one edgebeing soldered to the wall of the basket 11. The concave portion 17 of the open spout stands out from this to catch the water when the crank is turned as explained the operation. The number of spouts 16. may
vary, their arrangement is shown by tog N view at 16, and by downward and forwar extended portions shown. by dotted lines22 Fig. 2. The. free. edge of the spouts 16, at; 20., a e.- tumed for s if ening. the spou for: handling them, Fig. 4;. By referring to Fig. 3; it will be. seen by he. sp ce. below h co ers what afreedom there is for the delivers ance of much water, with great force in here over the clothes, which is forced onto and down through the clothes. L
It is shown in Fig. 3 that the sidewall of v the basket 11 has perforations 18, and in Fig. 2perforat'ions 19 through the bottom. The idea is to make the basket as much as possible like open skeleton work, like open wire work so that the dirty-water from the clothes wiil readily mix with the water in the tub 5, and not be retainedin the basket 11;
In the operation perhaps it is better to fill "the basket 1 1, nearly. full of clothes at a time. Fill the tub 5 and basket about even with top 'of basket with water.
Add whatever soap desired. Then turn the crank15 first in one direction, thenin the other de-.
is to raise it by the spouts 16, up the side of the basket 11, with great force against the under face of, the covers 6, 7, and it reacts down upon and through the clothes. I The water has to be lifted by turnin the crank,
hence by turning the crank brisk y the water is necessarily raised with much speed and force. The result is the short time it takessired, or do the Washing by turning one direction if preferred. The basket turns exceedingly easy, and the effect upon the water to do 'a washing, without boiling the clothes,
just use hot water, and nodamage to the clothes. As many times as the machine has to be filled with clothes in doing a washing refill with clean water.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United'States isf 1.; A washing machine comprising a tub shaving a central bearingon the bottom thereof, an annular cover to the tub having an annular rim or flange to form asupport for the clothes wringer or like device and provided with a central removable cover portion, an open Work cylindrical basket adapted to act as a clothes container, a shaft passi ing through the basket and journaled in the bearing on the bottom of the tub, and conremovable-portion, a cylindrical basket in the tub adapted to act as a clothes container,
a shaft form ng a support for the basketand journaled in the bearing on the, bottom of the tub and in the removable portion of the cover, a handle on the upper extended end of the shaft, and concave curved channeled ribs slantingly secured on the exterior walls of the basket, the .ribs having angular stiffening edges set at an angle oppositeto the channel in the ribs. t
3. A washing machine comprising a tub having a center bearing on the bottom thereof, a tight fitting cover to the tub haventeeing' a central removable portion, a brokeii annular supporting rim on the cover a shaft journaled 1n the bottom bearing and passing up through. the removable portion of the cover, a cylindrical perforated casing carrier by the shaft and having an open upper end and concave curved channeled .ribs secured at an incline to the outer walls of the casing, said ribs having overturned angular edges and making close engagement With the walls of the tub. i
4. A washingmachina comprising a tub having a center bearing on the bottom thereof, a tight fitting cover to the tub having'its edge projecting out beyond the rim of the tub engaging the inner wall of the tub and provided with a central removable portion, a shaft journaled in the bottom bearing and passing up through the removable cover portion, a handle on the upper extendedrend ofthe shaft, a cylindrical perforated casing supported on the shaft having an open upper end to form aclothes receptacle, and concave curved channeled-ribs slantingly secured to the outer walls of the casing, the ribs having reversed angular edges and making close en gagement withthe walls of the tub the ribs being inclined in a forward direction so that as the cylinder is revolved the Water'in the.
tub is elevated. Y
