Paper Clip (1867)
According to the Early Office Museum, the first patent for a bent wire paper clip was awarded in the United States to Samuel B. Fay, in 1867. Despite the early patent, Fay's design never really took off; instead the Gem paper clip, which was never patented, took off in Great Britain. It's still the design we use today, producing 18 billion in the US alone.
回形針（1867年）
根據(jù)早期辦公室博物館的資料，能彎曲的金屬絲回形針的專利最早出現(xiàn)在1867年的美國(guó)，發(fā)明者是塞繆爾•B•非伊。但盡管他很早就申請(qǐng)了專利，他的設(shè)計(jì)卻從沒(méi)流傳下來(lái)。真正流傳下來(lái)的是從未注冊(cè)過(guò)專利的寶石牌回形針，在英國(guó)打開(kāi)了市場(chǎng)。我們今天使用的回形針仍然是這一樣式，僅在美國(guó)一國(guó)每年的產(chǎn)量就達(dá)180億枚。
