Black American invention clothes drierIn 1892, George T. Sampson, a black American inventor, patented what was titled a “Clothes-Drier” (U.S. No. 476,416). In the patent description, he said “The object of my invention is to suspend clothing in close relation to a stove by means of frames so constructed that they can be readily placed in proper position and put aside when not required for use.” Thus, it was a passive drying frame. A few years earlier, on 17 Feb 1885, he had been issued a patent for a “Sled Propeller” (No. 312,388), being adapted from a tricycle frame by adding two runners, and a chain-driven rear wheel for propulsion.« |
