Guran Concertina inventor(s) (37) Concertina inventor(s) 05 Dec 09

Many encyclopedias and other sources say that "Charles Wheatstone invented and patented the concertina". The time for the event may differ a great deal however, for example 1825, 1829 or 1844, and there is also the German Konzertina which usually is linked to Karl Uhlig and having no relation to Charles Wheatstone.
So - what is *the* Concertina/Koncertina actually and WHO "invented" or "patented" what in reality?
