History Of Car

Car (short of an automobile which comes from the Greek 'autos' (self) and Latin 'movére' (move)) is a wheeled vehicle that carries four or more own machines. Type of car including buses, vans, trucks. Operation of the car is called driving.

History

The first vehicle that works with steam may first designed by Ferdinand Verbiest, circa 1672. She designed toy vehicle measuring 65 cm for Chinese kingdom, which can not carry passengers. It is not known if Verbiest made vehicle models ever produced or not.

In 1752, Leonty Shamshurenkov, a Russian national, construct a human-powered vehicle. He also equips his vehicle with the odometer. Vehicles that he made similar to a sleigh.

The first steam-powered vehicle was made in the late 18th century. Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot successfully demonstrated that three-wheeled vehicle in 1769. The first vehicles are powered steam engines, steam engines may increase the most recognized, developed in Birmingham, England by the Lunar Society. And also in Birmingham car power station was first made in Britain in 1896 by Frederick William Lanchester who also patented the disc brake. In the 1890s, ethanol is used as a source of energy in the United States.

Popularity

Cugnot discovery of low usage seen in his native France, and the findings forwarded to Britain, where Richard Trevithick runs a steam-wagon in 1801. Vehicles are considered weird at first, but after the discovery of the decade, such as the hand brake, multi-speed transmission, and increased speed and steering wheel, making it a success.

Today, America has more cars than any other country. Japan took the lead in the manufacture of cars, but the Japanese population could not afford to run a car because parking a rare and expensive fuel prices

Innovation

The first automobile patent in the United States granted to Oliver Evans in 1789; in 1804 Evans demonstrated his first car, which is not only the first car in the U.S. but also the first amphibious vehicle, the vehicle could power the steam-way on land and in the water wheels used wheels padel.

Generally the first automobile internal combustion engines using gasoline made almost simultaneously in 1886 by German inventors working independently. Karl Benz on July 3, 1886 in Mannheim, and Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in Stuttgart.

On 5 November 1895, George B. Selden granted U.S. patent for a two-stroke engine. This patent gives a negative impact on the development of automobile industry in the U.S.. Spectacular breakthrough made by Berta Benz in 1888. Steam engine, electricity, and gasoline competed for decades, with gasoline internal combustion engines achieving dominance in the 1910s.

Large-scale production-line manufacturing of affordable cars made by Oldsmobile in 1902, and later developed a large scale by Henry Ford in the 1910s. In the period from 1900 to the mid-1920s the development of automotive technology was rapid, due to the large number (hundreds) of small car makers are all vying to grab the attention of the world.

Major developments including electronic ignition and electronic self-starter (both by Charles Kettering, for the Cadillac Company in 1910-1911), independent suspension, four tires and brakes.

In the 1930's, mostly in automotive technology have been created, though often re-created at a later date and given credit to someone else. For example, the front-wheel steering recreated by Andre Citroën Traction Avant in the launch in 1934, although this technology has appeared several years earlier in cars made by Alvis and Cord, and in racing cars by Miller (and may have appeared as early as 1897 ).

After 1930, the number of car manufacturers drastically reduced berpasan with industry join together and mature. Since 1960, the number of producers is almost fixed, and reduced innovation. In many cases, the new technology only improvement from the previous technology. Dengam exceptions in the discovery engine management, which entered the market in the 1960s, when electronic goods become cheap enough for mass production and strong enough to handle the harsh environment of the car. Developed by Bosch, these electronic tools can make car exhaust is drastically reduced while increasing engine efficiency and power.

Security

Car accident nearly as old as the car itself. Joseph Cugnot crashed into the steam-powered car "fardier" with a wall in 1770. First fatal car accident recorded was Bridget Driscoll on August 17, 1896 in London, and Henry Bliss on 13 September 1899 in New York City.

Every year more than a million people died and about 50 million people were injured in traffic (according to WHO estimates). The main cause of the accident was the driver drunk or under the influence of drugs, is not a concern, too tired, dangers on the road (such as snow, holes, animal, and careless drivers). Facility security has been made in the car for years. Cars have two basic safety problems: They have drivers who often make mistakes and lose tire friction when braking close to half of gravity. Automatic control has been proposed and made an example of.

Initial research focused on improving the brakes and reduce the fire hazard fuel system. Systematic research in crash safety began in 1958 at Ford Motor Company. Since then, much research focuses on energy absorption outside with panels that easily destroyed and reduce human movement in the passenger compartment.
