.Specification forming part .of Letters Patent No. l Mbmf, dated J annary 3, i871.
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, SAMUEL DE VEAU, of
Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga and State of ANew York, have invented a newand nseful' Improvement in Washing-Machines; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others to make and use'the saine, refer-l clothes are placed Within a Wheel and rotated,
the Wheel having water-litters, and being rotated within a boiler or outer vessel.
In the accompanying drawing, A, Fig. l, is the boiler. B is the cover. C is the Wheel or cylinder, and D D are the double water lift ers or buckets. The double buckets D D are placed outside of the wheel and separa-ted from each other sufficiently so that direct openings through the riin of the Wheel can be made for egress of water, and the inner end or discharge of eachbucket of the wheel so as y d, for tumbling the clothes; and by this form of discharge the Water is thrown in more toward the centeroi` the wheel, and is delivered more fairly upon the body ot' the clothes. The openings between the buckets are formed by a series of bars, Efas shown in Figs. 1, 2, and
3, or they can be formed by a perforated plate or part of the rim of the wheel. The door portion c of the Wheel is attached to the main port-ion G by hinges e, at the joint in one 'of the side disks of the Wheel, so that thc cover' is opened in direction ot' its short-est diameter, as shown in Fig. 3, and I provide the opposite side of the cover with a spring-catch, f, Figs. 2 and 3, by means ot' which the wheel is made easy of access. The springvcatch fis made double, oi' spring-Wire, as clearly shown in Fig. 2, its legs being made to engage with the catches by opening is carried up in a is extended into the chamber .l
to form a rib or bntinent,`
means of the oblique upper faces of said catches. 'lhe boxes o a., Fig. 4, in the edge of the boiler7 are formed ina wide, at bar of iron, y, that is run around the entire edge of the boiler, thus making a strong and rigid support for the wheel. Thecoverl of the boiler is made with an opening in its top toallovv the steam to escape, and this tunnel form, as more Water can shown by H, Fig. 1, so that taking on? the' be added at any time Without cover-B.v l
As the machine is placed ordinarily on a common stove, and operated While on the stove, the steam .that forinsin it tends to press the snds out' of the boiler at the joint between Ait and the cover; but, by means of the opening H, this tendency is obviated by giving the steam a free exit at the topof the machine.
The buckets are either direction,by means of which the rolling up of the clothes into a ball is substantially avoided, as Athe wheel can be turned a short time in one direction, and the clothes then nnj Wound and 4nen7 surfaces presented by reversing or changing the direction ot' the wheel. An. important part of my invention is the hin gin g to one ot' the sides ot' the latter.
ln all Wheels, so far as l have ascertained,
the Alid or door portion of the wheel is hinged so as to open endwise in line with the longest dia-meter of the Wheel. The consequence is that When the door portion of the Wheel is swung back to allow access to the interior ot' the Wheel the Wheel is thrown ont ci' balance on its pivot, and turns over toward the end Where the door portion is hinged, thus bringing the opening of the wheel to the side, instead of on the top.
By liinging the door portion as described this dii'ticulty is obviatcd,
and shown by ine and the wheel kept iirinly in position with its openimr n p, the door portion acting as a connter-bala icc.
This machine is in practical use, and gives excellent results, doing the work well and expedihously.
4 iade double so that vthe f "Wheel will work equally Woll when turned in oi' the door vportion c of the Wheel C Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Pateut, is-
1. Thewheel C, operating substantially ns described, when provided with double buckets D D', substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
2. The combination, with the Wheel coustructed substantially as described, with dou- .bl Abuckets D" D', of a boiler, A, provided With a band, g, in which bearings a are formed for the pivot lof the wheel, substantially as shown and set forth.
3. Thespring-catch f, in combination with the wheel G c and hinges e, all constructed and arranged as shown and described.
4. The Wheel C, having buckets D D', as described, when provided with a. door portion, c, which is hinged so as to open sdewise in line with the shortest diameter .of the Wheel,
substantially as herein shown and set forth.
