What inspired TomJ Marshal to invent the fire extinguisher?

Thomas J Martin had an 1872 patent for a "Fire Extinguisher." He didn't invent the portable fire extinguisher; it had been around for over 100 years before he made his contribution to fire sprinklers. His motivation is not known.


Where did Tom J Martin invent the fire extinguisher?

Thomas J. Martin had nothing to do with invention of what is today called the fire extinguisher. It was invented well before he was even born. What Martin did patent was a system of pipes and sprinklers that could be used in highrise buildings. His patent just happened to have the title "Fire Extinguisher".


Where can you find a picture of Thomas J Martin the man who invented the Fire Extinguisher?

You can find a picture of him on google. Just go to google and search up thomas J Martin Images and his pics will show up.. or click on images on the left side :) youre welcome Also worth noting that Thomas Martin may have invented "A" fire extinguisher, but not "THE" fire extinguisher. Today, his invention would be properly titled as "Method of piping water inside for use in fire suppression." It has nothing to do with a PORTABLE fire extinguisher, which was invented at least 70 years earlier.


What black American got patent for a fire extinguisher in 1872?

Thomas J. Martin. However, US Patent 125,063 issued to Thomas J. Martin, on March 26, 1872, entitled "Fire Extinguisher", has NOTHING to do with a portable fire extinguisher. The portable fire extinguisher had been invented by others many years prior to Martin's invention. What that patent discloses is a way to use pressurized water pipes inside buildings, supplied from pipes in the street, with valves you could open on each floor and use the spray to put out a fire.


Why did tj marshall invent the fire extinguisher?

There is no indication that anyone named "T.J. Marshall" invented any fire extinguisher. However, there was a US Patent 125,063 issued to Thomas J. Martin, on March 26, 1872, entitled "Fire Extinguisher". Actually it was a type of fire standpipe and sprinkler in which water pressure from a reservoir and pump pushes water up pipes and into a building to a valve that can be opened to make the water spray out of nozzles. This is nothing like what came to be known as the "portable fire extinguisher" we have now.

According to US Patent 125,063 issued to Thomas J. Martin on March 26, 1872, entitled "Fire Extinguisher", it was a system of pipes (presumably metal) in which water pressure from a reservoir and pump pushes water up pipes and into a building to a valve that can be opened to make the water spray out of nozzles. This is nothing like what came to be known as the "portable fire extinguisher" we have now.

Who invented the fire Extinguisher'?

Records show that Ambrose Godfrey patented a fire extinguisher in England in 1723 and that George William Manby invented the "modern" extinguisher in 1818. One could also argue that a bucket full of water or sand is also a "fire extinguisher" and was invented about the time people started living in houses. There are some who incorrectly believe that Thomas "T.J." Marshall invented the fire extinguisher in 1872. Others say, "Ochoa L.C Bailey July 18,1899". See the related questions about Thomas J. Martin for more about 1872. (Martin's patent is titled "Fire Extinguisher", but describes an improvement to a system of pipes installed inside a building, like a sprinkler system, nothing like a portable "fire extinguisher" of today.)


Was the fire extinguisher invented in 1872?

No, not really. A patent issued that year was entitled "Fire Extinguisher", issued to one Thomas J. Martin, but it was related exclusively to a systems of pressurized pipes installed in buildings for operating sprinklers (or for other purposes). Such an invention clearly has no relevance to any "portable fire extinguisher", or any other self-contained fire extinguisher, portable or not.


In what year did Thomas J Marshall invent a fire extinquisher?

Perhaps you refer to Thomas J. MARTIN (not "Marshall") who had a patent. A US Patent 125,063 for a "Fire Extinguisher" was issued to Thomas J. Martin on March 26, 1872. It described a pressurized water pipe for running spray nozzles inside buildings. It is nothing like what we now refer to as portable "fire extinguishers". If you know of any related inventions by anyone named T.J. Marshall, please let us know.
