If it's not Horatio Nelson, then it should be.

It was the Shakespeare clue that gave it away.
OK, my turn: I was an inventor whose best-known invention wasn't produced until some nine years after it was patented. It's neither a hand grenade nor a spice grinder, but it played a significant role in keeping me alive in one of the worst places on earth.

Nope, not as well-known as Fleming, and the invention is certainly not as well-known as penicillin. I'll give another clue later today if nobody guesses it before then.

It's been a little over 24 hours, so here's another clue:
The name of my best-known invention (really the only one I was known for) is the feminine form of my first name.

Heh heh, not my first name, the inventor's first name! Any clues given in first person refer to the inventor, not me. And yes, of course Fruit Pie Jones is my real name! I thought we were all using our real names here!

Another clue: For many years, my invention was much loved by rally racers for its durability and ease of use.

Nope. (I don't even know who that is.)
