Every time we use any machine or any other simple object for that matter, sometimes we wonder about the history behind this invention and its inventor. So to quench your thirst, Chimes Radio is here to talk about the inventions of the various countries across the globe. After covering India, Russia, America, and China, we are now going to discuss a few of the biggest inventions from British/England. We all love eating chocolates, don't we? But do you know the inventor of the first chocolate bar? Back in 1847, a man named Joseph Fry created a new formula, where he mixed cocoa powder & sugar together creating the first chocolate bar. We do always hear from our elders the benefits of brushing our teeth twice a day but did you ever think who brought this idea of cleaning our teeth? Before toothbrush was introduced, people used the mixture on a rag to clean their teeth. But it was apparently very time-consuming. So to make this process super efficient, a man named Willam Edis introduced the concept of the toothbrush. Though back in those days the brushes were not this appealing or fashionable as we find in the market these days. Telegraphs have used as a mode of communication to deliver messages from one place to the other using wires and electrical signals for decades. The first commercial telegraph was introduced in 1837 by Charles Wheatstone and William Cook. This invention paved the path for the invention of cellphones too. Can you guess the full form of ATM, which our parents go to take out money from their bank accounts? It is an Automated Teller Machine. This machine was first installed in the Enfield Town of London in 1967. This machine was invented by a team of engineers led by John Shepherd Barron. In case of fire, we use a red cylindrical machine to extinguish it. This safety mechanism is called a fire extinguisher which was invented in 1723 by Ambrose Godfrey. Then from 1818, modern extinguishers came in use which was designed by William Melby, a British Captain. So hope you liked this episode and we will bring the inventions from another country in our next episode. www.chimesradio.com https://www.facebook.com/chimesradio/ https://www.instagram.com/vrchimesradio/ https://twitter.com/ChimesRadio
