Velcro
De Mestral gave the name "Velcro", a portmanteau of the French words "velour" ("velvet") and "crochet" ("hook"), to his invention as well as his company, which continues to manufacture and market the fastening system.
W. H. J. Grout
William Henry James Grout (1839–1915) was a pioneering inventor and manufacturer of bicycles. He patented the "Grout Tension Bicycle" in 1870 which introduced several innovations including hollow forks to save weight, rubber tyres for a better ride and adjustable spokes which could be tensioned to align the wheel. He also devised a portable version of the penny-farthing, whose front wheel could be dismantled into four sections for carrying.
