Brown,
George |
George Brown
(Tylersville, Illinois) patents a series of innovative planter patents
starting in 1853, and into the 1860s : “Furrows that open with edged
runners; corn 'precisely placed’ under the control of an operator; and
a closing wheel that covers seeds automatically and in check to allow
for cultivating in both directions.” Brown’s is the first successful
horse-drawn, two-row pull-type planter, with manual stick-type
metering. (A hand lever and seat on the front part of the machine allow
a second operator to mechanically drop the seed.) In 1858, Brown
improves his planter by adding a “shoe” or furrow opener to break open
the ground for the seed; he further improves it in 1860 by curving the
shoes to better open the furrow. Kinze History of Planting - [source: http://www.kinzemfg.com/company/plantrev/timeline.html] |

Mayer,
Oscar F.; Mayer, Gottfried; Mayer, Max |
Oscar F. Mayer
and his brothers Gottfried and Max started a meat market in Chicago. By
1906, Oscar MayerŽ is one of the first meatpackers to obtain the
Federal Meat Inspection stamp of approval. Business had become so good
that, instead of hand-carrying large orders to customers' homes in the
neighborhood (as most meat markets customarily did), the Mayer's made
their deliveries by horse-drawn wagons to all of Chicago - and its
suburbs. In 1904, when some of the largest packing houses were still
selling their own meats anonymously, the Mayer's took the bold step of
affixing a brand name to their products. In 1924, it introduced
packaged sliced bacon, for which it received a U.S. patent. And in 1929
(a year after Oscar F. Mayer was elected Chairman of the Board of
Directors and his son, Oscar G. Mayer, named company President), Oscar
Mayer & Co. began wrapping its wieners with a yellow paper band.
This made OSCAR MAYERŽ Wieners recognizable at a time when most wieners
were sold in bulk, without any packaging, from a display box. The
yellow band was applied by hand, and bore the company name and U.S.
government inspection stamp. In 1936, "Little Oscar and the
WIENERMOBILE" started the advertising campaign for Oscar Mayer &
Co. In 1963, the famous "wiener jingle" first appeared in Oscar Mayer
commercials. General Foods Corp. bought Oscar Mayer & Co. in 1981.

Chicago - Elisha
Gray invented a number of telegraphic devices and in 1869 was one of
two partners who founded what became Western Electric Company. Here's
an extract from Elisha Gray's Patent Caveat filed on February 14, 1876:
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, Elisha Gray, of
Chicago, in the County of Cook, and State of Illinois, have invented a
new art of transmitting vocal sounds telegraphically, of which the
following is a specification: It is the object of my invention to
transmit the tones of the human voice through a telegraphic circuit,
and reproduce them at the receiving end of the line, so that actual
conversations can be carried on by persons at long distances apart.
...... On February 14, 1876, Alexander Graham Bell's telephone patent
application was filed at the United States Patent Office; Elisha Gray's
attorney filed a caveat for a telephone just a few hours later. Bell
was awarded the patent. When Bell first transmitted the sound of a
human voice over a wire, he used a liquid transmitter of the microphone
type previously developed by Gray which was unlike any described in
Bell's patent applications to that date, and an electromagnetic
metal-diaphragm receiver of the kind built and publicly used by Gray
several months earlier. [Read more: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/telephone/peopleevents/pande02.html] |

Folding Cabinet
Bed - Sarah E. Goode was the first African American women to receive a
U.S. patent, #322,177, which was issued on July 14, 1885. She was a
business woman and inventor. Goode invented the folding cabinet bed, a
space-saver that folded up against the wall into a cabinet. When folded
up, it could be used as a desk, complete with compartments for
stationery and writing supplies. Goode owned a furniture store in
Chicago, Illinois, and invented the bed for people living in small
apartments. Goode's patent was the first one obtained by an
African-American woman inventor (patent #322,177, approved on July 14,
1885) [Source: http://www.enchantedlearning.com/inventors/1800b.shtml]

Food Preservation
Processes - 1925 - An industrial food chemist, Lloyd Augustus Hall
revolutionized the meatpacking industry with his development of curing
salts for the processing and reserving of meats. He developed a
technique of "flash-driving" (evaporating) and a technique of
sterilization with ethylene oxide which is still used by medical
professionals today. Born in Elgin, Illinois on June 20, 1894, and
raised in Aurora, Illinois,. Hall invented new ways to preserve food.
In 1925, Hall was the chief chemist and director of research at
Griffith Laboratories and it was there that Hall invented his processes
for preserving meat using sodium chloride and nitrate and nitrite
crystals..... Hall also pioneered the use of antioxidants [Source: http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/bll_a_hall.htm

Kool-Aid - The
powdered drink Kool-Aid was invented in 1927 by the chemist Edwin
Perkins of Nebraska Omaha. Perkins started a company in 1914 that sold
perfume and calling cards; it was called the Perkins Products Company.
Originally located in Hendley, Nebraska, they moved to Hastings,
Nebraska (about 90 miles west of Lincoln) in 1920, and expanded their
product line to include spices, medicines, more toilet preparations,
and other household items. Kool-Aid was originally a liquid called
"Fruit Smack," and was sold in a 4-ounce bottles. It was later renamed
Kool-Ade (and later, Kool-Aid), and sold in powdered form in packets.
The seven original Kool-Aid flavors were: Cherry, Lemon-Lime, Grape,
Orange, Root Beer, Strawberry, and Raspberry. The Kool-Aid factory
later moved to Chicago, Illinois, and was bought by
General Foods Corporation in 1953.[source: http://www.enchantedlearning.com/inventors/1900a.shtml

Judson, a Chicago inventor with dozens of patents, invented the a metal

"clasp-locker," a somewhat reliable hook and eye fastener. Later in
1893, he exhibited this new invention at the Chicago World's Fair. He
never succeeded in marketing his new device. The zipper was improved by
the Swedish-American engineer, Gideon Sundbach, and was named by the
B.F. Goodrich company in 1923. Judson died in 1909, before his device
became commonly used and well known. [Source: http://www.enchantedlearning.com/inventors/1800b.shtml] |
