Einstein Refrigerator

Einstein, possibly one of the greatest minds of all time, sat down and decided to create a home refrigeration unit. Not many people know this fact but it is true. From the years of 1926 till 1933 Einstein and one of his former students Leo Szilard worked on a refrigeration unit. They finally finished it in 1933 and decided to get their patent for it.

Here is what the patent schematic for the Einstein Szilard refrigerator looked like:

The thing that made this specific device so special is that it does not require any electricity to run. It only requires that a pump be operated so it can easily be operated by solar power if necessary.

Recently scientists have been looking into this patent with the possibility of reviving it to create refrigeration units that could possibly be as much as 4 times the efficiency of the original model. This would be a great asset to have in any home as it would reduce the electricity costs of running a full scale refrigerator as well as being relatively safe for the environment. This could possibly make it a very good purchase for most homes. A low cost, environmentally safe, durable refrigeration unit.

I am ready to buy one!
