The washing machine
The first patent (UK) in 1691. Then Jacob Schaffer (Germany) 1767. UK patent To Henry Sidgier for first rotating drum machine in 1782 . The first US Patent in 1797 was awarded to Nathaniel Briggs.
the first person to really invent the washing machine is unknown. But the first U.S. patent for the washing machine was granted to Nathaniel Briggs of New Hampshire. Hope that helped.
The first washing machine was designed by H. Sidgier of Great Britain in 1782. The first patented washer in the United States was by Nathaniel C Briggs in 1797. It was a manual device. (The US Patent Office was destroyed by fire in 1836, so there are no details or drawings.) The first electric washing machine was invented in 1906 by Alva J. Fisher.

Mr. Briggs patented the Briggs and Stratton engine, which is known for its small, lightweight design suitable for lawnmowers and other outdoor power equipment. Additionally, he developed various innovations related to engine efficiency and performance. His patents significantly contributed to the small engine market and helped establish Briggs & Stratton as a leading manufacturer in the industry.
As early as 1767, Jacob Christian Schäffer of Germany created the first machine. In 1797, Nathaniel Briggs received the first patent for his invention. The washing machine inventors of the 1800s include Hamilton Smith, James King, and William Blackstone, who created one for his wife as a birthday present. By Coimbatore Service

The first English patent under the category of Washing and Wringing Machines was issued in 1691.[1] A drawing of an early washing machine appeared in the January 1752 issue of "The Gentlemen's Magazine," a British publication. In Germany, Jacob Christian Schäffer's washing machine design was published in 1767.[2] In 1782 Henry Sidgier was issued a British patent for a rotating drum washer. The first United States Patent titled "Clothes Washing" was granted to Nathaniel Briggs of New Hampshire in 1797. Fire destroyed the patent office and no description of the device exists so it is not known what kind of washing device Briggs invented. A device that combined a washing machine with a wringer mechanism did not appear until 1843 when John E. Turnbull of Saint John, New Brunswick patented a "Clothes Washer With Wringer Rolls."[3] Electric washing machines were advertised and discussed in newspapers as early as 1904.[4] Louis Goldenberg of New Brunswick, New Jersey invented the electric washing machine around the late 1800s to early 1900s. He worked for the Ford Motor Company at that time, and all inventions that were created while working for Ford under contract, belonged to Ford. The patent would have been listed under Ford and or Louis Goldenberg.[citation needed] Alva J. Fisher has been incorrectly credited with the invention of the electric washer. The US patent office shows at least one patent issued before Mr. Fisher's US patent number 966677 (e.g. Woodrow's US patent number 921195).
A patent is a grant from a patent office, such as the United States Patent Office. "Patent Pending" is a phrase that an application for a patent has been filed and is in some stage in the process of obtaining a patent. Thus, a patent can be presently enforced while a patent that is merely pending is unenforceable but can mature into a patent that can be enforced. Once the pending patent matures, the patent owner can sue for back damages or reasonable royalties starting from the filing date of the patent.

There are not training offered from the patent office on getting a patent. The patent office advises you to seek guidance from a trademark/patent attorney. A good attorney is highly suggested by the patent office. As a convenience, they have a roster of local Patent Attorneys.
Patent revocation is the removal of patent protection from an invention.
