An old engraving showing how early cotton gins work. It is from a Victorian mechanical engineering book of the 1880s. A cotton gin (cotton engine) is a machine that separates cotton fibres from their seeds. The fibres are then processed into various cotton goods. The seeds can be used to make cottonseed oil. The mechanical cotton gin was invented by American Eli Whitney in 1793. Whitney's gin used a wire screen and small wire hooks to pull the cotton through, while brushes removed the loose cotton lint. The top illustration shows a version of his gin, the bottom gin is a variant. Stock Photo
