Melville Reuben Bissell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Melville Reuben Bissell (September 25, 1843 – March 15, 1889) was an American entrepreneur and inventor of the carpet sweeper.[1] The Bissell corporation is named after him.
Life and career[edit]

Bissell was born in Hartwick, New York and grew up in Berlin, Wisconsin. As a young adult, he opened a grocery store with his father in Kalamazoo, Michigan. He made money manufacturing crockery and investing in real estate.
Following the Panic of 1873, Bissell began working on a carpet sweeper. In 1876 Bissell patented a sweeper with a central brush, rubber wheels, and other improvements on vacuum technology. A fire in 1884 destroyed his first factory, but he was able to overcome the loss and expand his business.
Following his death from pneumonia, his wife Anna Bissell took control of the company, becoming America's first female corporate Chief Executive Officer.[2]

Melville Reuben Bissell,**(born Sept. 25, 1843,*Hartwick, N.Y., U.S.—died March 15, 1889,*Grand Rapids, Mich.),*U.S. inventor of the carpet sweeper.

After growing up in Berlin, Wis., Bissell joined his father in business at Kalamazoo, Mich., where they opened a grocery store. Selling crockery led the younger Bissell into the crockery business in Grand Rapids, where, by the time of the economic panic of 1873, he had made a fortune in industry and real estate. With business temporarily at a standstill, he turned his attention to the carpet sweeper and its large potential market. He soon patented (1876) a device with a central bearing brush; his device was made thoroughly practical by the addition of rubber tires and other improvements. Despite a disastrous fire (1884) in his first factory, he headed a highly successful business with worldwide production and marketing facilities.
