UNITED STATES MARTIN W. CARTER, O'F TOCCOA, GEORGIA.
WASHING MACHINE.
Application filed March 31, 1923. Serial No. 629,058.
To all whom 2'2? may concern.
Be it known that I, MARTIN W'. CARTER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Toccoa, in the county of Stephens and State of Georgia have invented certain new and useful Improvements in lVashing Machines; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention. such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention has relation to a machine for washing clothes by a combined action of boiling and agitation, the machine embodya drum for receiving the clothing or articles to be washed, a boiler for containing the drum and suds water, and means for imparting a rotary movement to the drum.
A further purpose of the invention is to combine with the machine a pipe for supplying clean water, whereby to rinse the clothes after the dirt has been loosened and made free, the parts being so arranged that the dirty suds water may be drawn off and clean water supplied for rinsing the clothes without removing the latter from the boiler, thereby obviating the handling of the clothes until the same are removed from the machine to be placed upon a line for drying.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent and suggest themselves as the nature of the invention is understood.
While the drawings illustrate an embodiment of the invention it is to be understood that in adapting the same to meet diiferent conditions and requirements, various changes in the form, proportion and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the nature of the invention.
Referring to the accompanying drawings forming a part of the application:
Figure 1 is a front view of a washing machine embodying the invention, parts being broken away, and
Figure 2 is a vertical transverse section on the line 9P2 of Figure 1.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and designated in both views of the drawings by like referencecharacters.
The numeral 1 designates a boiler which is provided with a pressure gage 2 and pipes 3 and 4. This boiler may be of any construction and capacity and is designedto receive a quantity of water which is heated to generate steam which is subsequently used in the process of washing and for operating the drum containing other articles to be washed.
The numeral'5 designates a vessel which may be of any dimensions and in which are arranged vertical partitions 6 which are secured in any substantial manner to the bottom and opposite sides of the vessel a short distance from the ends thereof. Openings 7 are formed in the lower ends of the partitions 6 and other openings 8 are formed in the upper ends of said partitions. In the operation of the machine, the steam and hot suds water flow through the openings 8 into the end spaces and the cool water passes from the end spaces into the lower portion of the vessel through the openings 7. A cover 9 is fitted to the upper edge portions of the partitions 6 and the side walls of the vessel 5 comprised between said partitions and has a close fit to prevent the escape of steam. A bail 10' serves as means to secure the cover 9 and prevent displacement thereof. A pipe 11 is carried by the cover 9 and is arranged upon the lower side thereof and is provided in its length with a plurality of openings constituting outlets for water. A pipe 12 connects with the pipe 11 and supplies water thereto from a suit able source.
A drum 13 is located within the chamber 14 comprised between the partitions 6 and opposite side walls of the vessel 5. The drum 13 is journaled in the partitions 6 and has a portion 15 hinged whereby provision is had for placing clothing to be washed within the drum and removing the same after being washed. The hinged portion 15 when closed may be secured by any suitable fastening means. One of the journals of the drum is extended beyond the partition 6 and has a gear wheel 16 fast thereto. A pinion 17, in mesh with the gear wheel 16 and secured to the inner end of a shaft 18, operates as means for applying power thereto. A steam turbine 19 or other form of motor adapted to be operated by steam is secured to the outer end of the shaft 18 and is adapted to be driven by steam supplied thereto from the boiler 1 by means of pipe 4. The pipe 3 extends into the lower portion of the chamber 14 and supplies steam thereto.
The vessel 5 is provided with two drain outlets l9 and arranged one above the other whereby to insure a given depth of clean water in the vessel. After the washing has been completed, both drain outlets 19 and 20 are opened to draw off the dirty suds Water, and after the same has been drawn off, the outlets 19 and 20' are closed and clean water is supplied to the vessel by means of the pipe 11 and after the clothes have been thoroughly rinsed, the water is again drawn off by openingthe outlets l9 and 20 and upon closing the outlet 20 the water will accumulate in the lower portion. of the vessel until it reaches the level of the outlet 19 and at this time the supply of water is cut off and the outlet 19 is. closed, thereby insuring a predetermined amount of water in the vessel for the washing operation.
What is claimed. is:
A washing machine comprising a vessel, upright partitions in opposite end portions of the vessel forming end spaces and an intermediate chamber, said partitions having openings in their upper and lower end portions, a drum within the chamber journaled in said partitions, gearing in one of the end spaces for operating the drum, means for operating said gearing to impart rotary movement to the drum, a cover for closing the chamber, and a pipe carried by said cover for supplying rinse water thereto.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
NIARTIN CARTER. Wi tnesses Mrs. WV. J. RANNAY', W. J. HAYES.
