ZIPPER AND BIRTH DAY OF MAHAMANAV (a great man)

Yesterday was "Earth Day" my daughter featured something from our house to commemorate the day…आज 'पृथ्वी दिवस' है, दुनिया को एक बडे कूडे के ढेर से बचाने के लिये पुरानी चीज़ों का रचनात्मक प्रयोग एक सकारात्मक प्रकिया है और इसी को अंजाम देते हुए बनाया गया है यह 'रैथ' रेडीमेड होती जा रही दुनिया में पुरानी चीज़े कचरे में तब्दील होती जा रही हैं, रचानत्मक चीज़े श्रम मांगती हैं और श्रम से हम दूर भागते हैं. आज इस दिवस पर हमें खुद सोचना है हमारा इस धरा को योगदान क्या हैं

Could today be a SEWING Day? Would be cool, ha? But it turns out, today is 132nd birth anniversary of Gideon_Sundback - the inventor of the ZIPPER! So, it is still related to garments and sewing! Although some of you may not realize how valuable and important the invention of The Zipper is (of course it's not a discovery of bulb!), I dare say it involves more imagination and creativity. Indeed- Gideon came up with a solution to a problem. He did not discover something which was already there, created by nature!

I think it is a pleasure to know the great minds and people through Google’s  search engine. Today  it created ripples with its latest “DOODLE”, a giant zipper running down the centre of its homepage featured by me above. To experience this Doodle, Visit Google Homepage Below-

Yes!!!!!!!! the Zipper doodle is Google’s tribute to commemorate 132^nd birth day of Gideon_Sundback who perfected the zipper. Today, i.e. April 24 is Sunback’s birthday. Gideon Sundback was a Swedish-American businessman. Born in 1880, to a wealthy farmer of Smaland, Sweden. His big bet would be to radically improve an already made Zipper

When the humans began to dress, a need arises to open and close the clothing. The invention of different Velcro closures and clasps grew the idea of front zipper.

He was trained as electrical engineering in Germany. Then he migrated to the US in 1905.

After a stint at electric company in Pennsylvania, joined the Universal Fastener Company in New jersey. A zipper design was developed in 1893 by Whitcomb Judson, but was designed for shoes. Even earlier, already in 1851 an American sewing machine designer, Elias Howe, received a patent for design of “locking Slider.”

In short engineers have been working to develop a fastener interlocking for over 20 years before Sundback perfected the zipper.

His innovation revolutionized the clothing industry- gone were the days of cumbersome butons and hook-and –eye fasteners. Sundback’s smart design-a dimple on the underside of each tooth and a nib on the top-ensured that no single tooth has enough room to come apart, hence making the zip strong.

Yes!!!!! the best version of the zip was released and patented on August 24, 1914 as‘Seperable Fastner‘. In 1931 in Sweden the usage of metal zippers has been increased . The business expanded and Gideon Sundback became rich. He died in 1954 he left a fortune of USD $ 13 million.

Happy Birth Day !Great Man!
