Cannot say how this washer worked. Guess impeller or whatever that thing is on bottm of tub created some sort of vortex wash action.

@Jamiel
Yes, early 1900 washers touted their (then) hand driven washing machines had far more gentle washing action because things were moved through a "whirlpool" of water. www.google.com/books/edit... Guess concept of impeller wash action goes back further than one imagined. Who knew? http://youtube.com/shorts/PDq1uuLZznM |

Whirlpool was using a direct drive system on this machine way back then. Interesting how a couple of these ideas played out over the history of their automatics. |
