A new clothes wringer uses a reciprocating wheel and a spring chain drive to move the rolls continuously. The mechanism sits separate from the wringer frame and rails, preserving intermeshing gear teeth while avoiding the need for a turning crank. Continuous motion is achieved as the handle moves up and down.
