Cotton was one the biggest and most important crops in the South of the United States. In 1794, a United States inventor named Eli Whitney produced and patented a machine called the Cotton Gin and by that time, it completely modernized the cotton industry.
This especial machine was able to speed up the production of cotton by a process, which incremented the speed in which the cotton seeds were removed from the cotton fiber. Previous to this machine the removal of the seeds has to be done by hand which was very time consuming.
even though the invention was very successful, Mr. Whitney´s success was not what he wanted, mainly because there were a lot of patent infringement problems that he has to faced, and ended up in disappointment for him.
