User: Who Invented the Zamboni
Assistant: A zamboni is also known as an ice resurfacer.   It was invented in 1949 in California, by Frank Zamboni.  Zamboni was an American inventor and engineer.   His inspiration came from the fact that he owned an ice skating rink in California and the process to resurface the ice was very time consuming.   Through his refrigeration background during the years of 1941-1947 he began working on the first prototype.
