Background of the inventor-

1)   When/where they born?

Samuel Crompton was born on the 3rd of December 1753

2)   Life before the invention.

While Samuel was a boy he lost his father and had to contribute to the family resources by spinning yarn, learning to spin on James Hargreaves's spinning jenny. The deficiencies of the jenny imbued him with the idea of devising something better, which he worked on in secret for five or six years.

Explain the invention-

1)   How it was developed.

It was developed into a hybrid that combined features of two earlier inventions which were the spinning Jenny and the water frame. At the time of the invention of the mule, roller drafting had only been developed so far as to allow the spinning of coarse cotton yarns.

2)   When it was invented.

In 1779 the spinning mule was invented.The spinning mule that combined the carriage of the spinning Jenny with the rollers of the water frame.

3)   How it worked?

The spinning mule spins textile fibres into yarn by an unsteady process. In the draw stroke, the roving is pulled through rovers and twisted on its return it is wrapped onto the spindle.

Describe how the invention impacted the world-

1)   How did it change the way things were done?

When the spinning mule was created cotton and other fibre companies could pay their workers less because you didn’t have to be skilled to use it, which meant they would make more money. They could also produce their products a lot quicker.

2)   What would the world be like if it wasn’t invented?

If the spinning mull wasn’t created they would still have to be employing hundreds of skilled threaders in cottages. The cotton would be still very expensive as not many people can make it and produce it quickly.

Samuel Morse was born on the 27TH of April 1791, Boston, Massachusetts.

Before inventing the telegraph, Morse was a well-known portrait painter. His most known work was a pair of portraits for a married couple called Mr and Mrs Latham Avery. He was educated at Yale college and was married to Lucretia Pickering Walker, and Sarah Elizabeth Griswold.

As well as inventing the telegraph and being one of history’s most renowned portrait artists, he was also a co-inventor of Morse code and as a result it was named after him.

Samuel Morse came up with the idea for the electrical telegraph while returning from Europe where he was studding art and he had heard of the newly discovered electro magnet.

The telegraph was invented by Samuel Morse in the 1830 and the.

The telegraph works with a sender on one end typing out the message which goes through the wire with an electrical current in the ground to the receiving end witch it uses the electrical current to provide power to an indicator dial, buzzer or to a device printing on paper tape

The telegraph greatly impacted the worlds communication speed. Before the telegraph, it would have several days for a letter to reach over a long distance, they even used flame beacons or light flashes with a heliograph to send messages. Once the telegraph was created, it became a lot easier and quicker to send messages using electricity. The speed of the sending massively increased, being able to send a more code message just minutes, and cross country messages in under a day. If the telegraph wasn’t invented in the 1800s, the world would be purely communicating by just voice, because the inventor of the telephone used the idea of the telegraph to make his invention, so without a telegraph, there would be no telephone, which would mean we wouldn’t be able to call as fast as we can in today’s day and age.

It was invented in 1764 by JamesHargreaves in Stanhill, Oswaldtwistke, Lancashire in England.

About James Hargreaves:

James Hargreaves was born on May 1834. He was a weaver, carpenter and inventor in Lancashire, England. James was one of 3 inventors responsible for mechanising spinning. At the time, he devised the machine, he was a poor, uneducated spinner and weaver living at Stan hill, near Blackburn, Lancashire.

How it was invented:

One of his daughters accidentally knocked over the spinning wheel. He watched the machine he noticed that the spindle continued to spin, even though it had now been turned over by the fall. He figured out that the same wheel might be used to turn many spindles at the same time. He figured out how to make a machine with eight spindles connected to one wheel. He called his machine the Spinning Jenny, after his daughter knocked it over.

How it actually worked:

In 1764 the machine got improved by James Hargreaves, it used eight spindles onto which the thread was spun from the corresponding set of roving’s. By turning the single wheel the operator could spin eight threads at once.

How did the Inventions change the world?

The spinning jenny created more jobs for people.  It was also able to fit in the homes that people lived in so they could work from home.

If it wasn’t invented:

If the Spinning Jenny wasn’t invented it would have taken much longer to spin woollen threads.

Background –

John Kay was born on the 17th of June, 1704 in Walmersley, United Kingdom and died in 1779 in France. John’s father died before he was born and his mother was responsible for educating him until she remarried. He was one of ten children, him being the fifth. He apprenticed with a hand-loom reed maker and was a manager for one of his father’s mills and improved them. He designed a metal substitute for the natural reed that proved popular enough for him to sell throughout England. After travelling the country, making and fitting wire reeds, he returned to home and, on June 29, 1725, he got married to Anne Holte.

When was it invented? -

The flying shuttle was made in 1733 by James kay.

How did it work? –

In previous looms, the shuttle was thrown, or passed, through the threads by hand, and wide fabrics required two weavers seated side by side passing the shuttle between them. Kay mounted his shuttle on wheels in a track and used paddles to shoot the shuttle from side to side when the weaver jerked a cord. Using the flying shuttle, one weaver could weave fabrics of any width more quickly than two could before.

How did it change the way things were done? –

Before the flying shuttle people had to pass through the cotton by hand, making the process extremely long and tiring for the person operating. Kay was a weaver at the time and prior to the flying shuttle the weaver could only weave from a man’s body length (arm to arm).

The flying shuttle changed the way every weaver worked and made their job 10 times easier and also more efficient. With the flying shuttle allowing the weaver to weave a further distance and at a faster rate.

What would the world be like if it wasn’t invented?

If the flying shuttle was never invented we would no doubt have a very different way of weaving, but somewhere down the road someone would of thought of an idea just as good to the flying shuttle.Without it, textiles would still be the same thing it was back before 1733, when weaving still involved 2 people and took up much more time. With the flying shuttle, weavers were able to make more clothes in less time.

Thomas Newcomen was and English inventor who created the first practical stream engine in 1712, The Newcomen atmospheric engine. He was an ironmonger by trade and a Baptist lay preacher by calling. He was born in February 1664 in Dartmouth, Devon, England, to a merchant family. In those days flooding in coal and tin mines was a major problem, and Newcomen was soon engaged in trying to improve ways to pump out the water from such mines. His ironmonger’s business specialized in designing, manufacturing and selling tools for the mining industry.
