Sometimes, ideas for inventions, and arise spontaneously, as a rule, they are translated into successful products. Joe Casale - free inventor, the portfolio is more than 200 inventions and patents. But for the consumer market, he began working a few years ago. His recent invention for the kitchen - a board-float became a real bestseller and one of the sought-after products in the field of household goods.
The idea to create such a product came to Casale chance during a weekend at the parents when the family was busy preparing dinner. He watched as his brother cleans vegetables when he was visited by a sudden hunch: there must be some sort of device that allows you to make this process easier.
Already a few days later he drew the first prototype of a grater on the floor. Further, he conducted the necessary studies, analysis of all similar kitchen appliances presented in this market.
When the design of the new product has been completely finalized, he decided to take part in the television show "Everyday Edisons." His idea of kitchen grater was selected among 14 other successful ideas judges show further embodiments. All the necessary procedures - patenting, design, development - the instruction of the program "Everyday Edisons" held its own.
Name for the new product has been chosen too original - Koku. This Japanese word means one measure of rice, needed for one person for one year. Casale agreed that this name is perfectly suited for its float.
Currently grater Koku successfully sold in the shops of Bed, Bath & Beyond throughout the country.
