Léon Guillaume Bouly
Léon Guillaume Bouly (* 1872 , † 1932 ) is believed to be a French inventor who was the originator of the term Cinématographe . On February 12, 1892, the application was filed under the name for a patent for an "appareil réversible de photographie et d'optique pour l'analysis et la synthèse des mouvements, dit le Cynématographe Léon Bouly". It came to the French state patent, number 219,350. On December 27, 1893, a change was made to the name of his apparatus: Cinématographe.
The cinématographe works with paper and roll film without perforation according to the principle of the clamp . The film drive is accomplished with a segment roll compared to a full roll.
When the annual patent fee had not been paid in 1894, the term cinématographe became common property and the following year it was reserved for the Lumière brothers .
Two of his apparatus are kept at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers in Paris. A replica of the device has been available since 2012.
