Any idea what these parts go to?

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

#11 two ST SQ pumps and fluid drive,possibly an early kelvinator pump above the
the fluid drive.
#19 reversing motor SQ motor and fluid drive
#20 solenoid shift SQ motor-fluid drive missing
 
more

#1 old(probably 1950s)KA dishwasher-they used this style heater for quite a while,
maybe through late '60s?
#12 older front load westy pump,probably 50s/60s-i have seen really old ones
with brass cover
looks like the two speed queen pumps in #11 are both reverse motor and solenoid
versions as each has different rotation outlet ports.
 
Westinghouse pump in frame 12.

I recognized some of the 'boxy' timers but they were fairly generic in the 50s. I had 3 of them from the scrap pile behind the appliance store. They all worked to a degree.
 
Post 555387 looks like the motor to a GE dishwasher - an impeller wash model like my 1955 and 1956 ones.
Post 555383 looks like a WP, KM, or, gasp, Inglis washer motor.
 
fluid drive

Yep,the fluid drive is basicly a slip clutch-active in spin mode,it lets the tub
get up to speed without bogging down the motor,Ones for reversing motor SQs-
Ca.1973(?)-1980 mount to the shaft with a roll pin and have a one-way clutch built
in.Earlier solenoid shift clutches have a bronze bushing center and slip over the
motor shaft,a cone clutch section on the bottom of the fluid drive engages a mating
section on the motor pulley when the spin solenoid pulls the fluid drive down to
begin spin.Internally,the SQ fluid drive is similar to an automotive torque
converter except no "stator" section-just a dome-shaped driving member with fins
underneath to drive the internally finned outer housing via the light oil inside.
