Who invented the sewing machine?

The history of the sewing machine is a long and complicated. Brother CS6000I There are actually a lot of controversy about who invented the machine. Let's take a look at how it all started.

The first in its history goes back to England from German Charles Weisenthal in 1755, many believed that he invented the sewing machine. He had to use a patent for a needle with a particular used car, but do not know what the device was actually used. Then, in 1790,English Saint Thomas applied for a patent for a punch, which could penetrate materials such as leather, making holes. It was one patent and has never been done successfully. Subsequently, a series of ideas that never worked, as in 1804, was a Frenchman Thomas Stone and James Henderson with an idea to make a type of machine that can imitate hand-sewn. This same year was John Duncan, a patent for a sewing machine, where the needles of many that have been made toEmbroidery. But these were never marketed. Meanwhile, there were German Balthasar Krems, which is the first person to create an automatic machine in 1820, but since it does not work properly and has not applied for a patent for it, people rarely on him in the history of the machines sewing. And in the U.S., the first machine was produced by John Knowles and John Adams Doge in 1818, but were unsuccessful because the machine can not sew on any fabric.

Thimonnier Barthelemy wasfirst person who came up with a machine that operates with its prototype of a needle connected to a single thread in place in 1830 had allowed to form. Were commercially produced and Thimonnier opened his own sewing, which threatens the jobs of traditional tailoring. But the sewing machine for the first time produced commercially by Isaac Singer, the machine has a single needle moving up and down instead of side to side, just as today 's sewing machines.Unfortunately for him, has not won a patent as a mechanical engineer American named Elias Howe, the first patent. To date, there are many different models of machines with different functions. But no matter which model has the same idea of taking the original patent is based.
