Albert Einstein was co-inventor of a refrigerator with no moving parts, and was awarded a US patent in 1930.

Albert did not actually invent anything, but he developed the concepts by giving theories. For example he developed the concept of Space-Time, by giving the General theory of Relativity and proved that there is no absolute time. His famous equation E= mc2 states the special theory of realtivity. According to this equation nothing can travel faster than light, because as the speed increases the mass also increases and thus the energy required to increase the speed further increases. At a speed almost equal to light, the mass is infinite and thus infinite energy is required to increase the speed.

This how he developed theories and did not invent anything per se.

Until Einstein, no one knew why the speed of light was the same regardless of what speed you were traveling relative to it. Einstein invented the theory of relativity, which has been demonstrated by experiment numerous times, especially in particle accellerators. You can't accellerate a particle faster than the speed of light, matching Einstein's theory. Furthermore, the greater a particle's speed, the more mass it gains, also matching. Einstein explained all that before we even had particle accellerators. Imagine that.

Albert Einstein was a theoretician, not an inventor. He is best know for his theory of relativity (summed up by the equation E=MC^2), but he contributed quite a few theories and concepts to the science of physics.

While most people know Albert Einstein for his theory of relativity, he won the Nobel prize for his work on the photoelectric effect. That work resulted in the development of quantum mechanics. He was able to show that energy in light comes in packets that are called quanta.

Albert Einstein (German pronunciation (help·info)) (March 14, 1879 – April 18, 1955) was a German-born theoretical physicist widely considered one of the greatest physicists of all time.[1][2] While best known for the theory of relativity (and specifically mass-energy equivalence, E=mc2), he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his 1905 (Annus Mirabilis) explanation of the photoelectric effect and "for his services to Theoretical Physics". In popular culture, the name "Einstein" has become synonymous with great intelligence and genius.

He was known for many scientific investigations, among which were: his special theory of relativity which stemmed from an attempt to reconcile the laws of mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field, his general theory of relativity which extended the principle of relativity to include gravitation, relativistic cosmology, capillary action, critical opalescence, classical problems of statistical mechanics and problems in which they were merged with quantum theory, leading to an explanation of the Brownian movement of molecules; atomic transition probabilities, the probabilistic interpretation of quantum theory, the quantum theory of a monatomic gas, the thermal properties of light with a low radiation density which laid the foundation of the photon theory of light, the theory of radiation, including stimulated emission; the construction of a unified field theory, and the geometrization of physics.

Einstein became into yet another paedo who did no longer have a clue what he became into speaking approximately he says WW3 would be fought with sticks and stones nicely does not look that way with all the nukes pointing in each and every course like an previous guy on Viagra

As far as I know, he didn't invent anything. He developed the theories of special relativity. The advance in knowledge of nuclear physics led to many advances, not the least of which was the development of nuclear weapons.
