A Quick History of the Automobile for Young People Pictures And Video

Many Italians recorded designs for wind energy vehicles. Guido was the first to Pavia in 1335. This is a disc type mill to change gear, and then to the wheels. Vaturio developed a similar vehicle, which has never been also constructed. Later, Leonardo da Vinci designed a clockwork driven tricycle with a lever on the steering and the differential between the rear wheels.

Catholic priest named Father Ferdinand Verbiest has been said that there was a steam engine in the lungs of the Chinese Emperor Chien, built around 1678 No information about the event only one vehicle. Since Thomas Newcomen did not build his first steam engine until 1712 we can assume that it is possible, by a car a mechanism by which to model the steam engine or the hero, a spinning wheel with jets pushed the periphery. Newcomen engine cylinders and pistons, and the first of its kind and uses steam as the condensing agent to form a gap and walk up the beam, pull the rod to lift water. It was huge and strictly stationary. The vapor pressure is not directed only one storage tank to the cylinder open. It uses the same vacuum principle that Thomas Savery patented to lift water directly to a vacuum pump that his would be limited to less than 32 meters from the ski. Newcomen be limited only by the length of the elevator shaft and the spring force of the valve at the bottom also. Somehow Newcomen was not able to detach from the invention of Savery Savery and had to pay for rights. In 1765 James Watt developed the first engine-pressure steam, the most effective and compact, provided that the engine Newcomen to the test.

The first car was designed to move under its own power for which records of Nicholas Joseph Cugnot and constructed by M. Brézin in 1769. A replica of this vehicle is on display at the Conservatory of Arts et Métiers in Paris. I think that the museum "Smithsonian" in Washington, also has a large (half size?) Kit models. The second module was built in 1770, which weighs 8000 kg and a maximum speed of 2 mph and the cobbled streets of Paris, this is probably faster, and someone wants to do. The image shows the first model of his first trip to Paris, struck him and knocked a stone wall. It also tends to tip forward, if not the canon in the rear counterweight. To transport vehicles for special use fees to the city.

In the first steam-powered vehicles were so heavy that almost perfectly flat surface as strong as iron. Time was also made of iron bars, the standard for the next 125 years. The vehicles are larger and heavier and more powerful and as such, were finally able to pull a train of many cars full of passengers and goods.

Like a painting on the right shows, many attempts have been made in England in 1830 made for a car that has no practical need to develop the rails. A series of accidents and propaganda from the established routes caused a flurry of restrictive legislation to be adopted, and the development of the automobile bypassed England. Several commercial vehicles were built, but are more like trains without tracks.

The development of the internal combustion engine must wait for the available fuel for burning internally. Gunpowder was tried but not working. Gunpowder carburetors are still hard to find. The gas first gas actually used. They used coal gas generated by heating coal in a boiler or pressure vessel. Frenchman Etienne Lenoir patented the first practical gas engine in Paris in 1860 and drove a car on the design from Paris to Joinville in 1862 is based. His half horsepower engine has a bore of 5 inches and 24 inches stroke. It was big and heavy and turned 100 revolutions per minute. Lenoir died broke in 1900.

Lenoir had a separate mechanism to compress the gas prior to combustion. In 1862, Alphonse Bear December Rochas figured out how to be the same gas in the cylinder, which is not to burn the way we do not compress. These procedures bring the gas into the cylinder to compress, burn compressed mixture, then exhausted is known as the Otto cycle-or four-stroke engine. Lenoir claimed he started the car on benzene and his drawings showed a power supply. If so, I was the first vehicle that runs on fuel made from oil or gas, or as we call petrol gas.

Siegfried Marcus, of Mecklenburg, built in 1868, preserved and displayed in an exhibition in Vienna in 1873. Later his car along the road car about 3/4 HP at 500 revolutions per minute is called. It ran on crude wooden wheels with iron rims and stopped by pressing wooden blocks was on the wheels of iron, however, clutch, differential and magneto ignition. One of the four cars which Marcus built at the Vienna Technical Museum and can still move under its own power.

In 1876 Otto Nokolaus patented the gasoline engine, de Rochas had done, and then the basis for Daimler and Benz, Otto patent infringement, claiming a prior art de Rochas.

The left image, taken in 1885, is a seminar Gottllieb Daimler in Bad Cannstatt where he built a wooden motorcycle shown. Daimler's son Paul rode this motorcycle from Cannstatt back in Untertürkheim and November 10, 1885. Daimler has used a tube of heat ignition for the engine speed of 1000 revolutions per minute

The previous August, Karl Benz had been the driving force in his light, tubular frame tricycle around the Neckar valley, only 60 km from Daimler, where he lived and worked. They never met. Berta Benz took Karl the car one night and walked around the first car long enough to see his mother, 62 miles from Mannheim to Pforzheim in 1888 travels.

Also in August 1888, William Steinway, owner of Steinway & Sons has spoken on the Daimler factory to produce the right of the United States and an agreement by September. In 1891 Daimler Motor Company, owned by Steinway, which produces gasoline for cars trams, cars, quads, boats and vehicles in the factory in Hartford, Connecticut.

Steam engines were built in America before the Civil War, but the beginning was a bit 'as locomotives. In 1871, Dr. JW Carhart built, a professor of physics at the University of Wisconsin State and JI Case Company, a steam engine. This is practical enough to inspire the state of Wisconsin, a prize of $ 10,000 for winning a race of 200 miles in 1878> (you'll see more of the history of Frederick Dennis Williams JW Carhart) offer

200 miles race has seven entries, or two appear on the race. A car from the city of Green Bay and sponsored by the City of Oshkosh. Green Bay was the fastest car, but collapsed and the machine is ready for Oshkosh, with an average speed of 6 mph.

From now until the end of the century had almost every community in America, a mad scientist who works in a steam engine. Many old newspapers tell stories about the trials and failures to be an inventor.

In 1890, Ransom E. Olds had built his second steam engine, pictured at left. One was sold to a buyer in India, but the ship lost at sea.


Works in February 1893 and ready for road tests from September 1893 car, by Charles and Frank Duryea, brothers, is the first car built in America. First race on public roads, September 21, 1893 in Springfield, Massachusetts. Horse drawn buggy bought used for $ 70 and installed a 4 HP, single cylinder gasoline engine. The car (buggy) had a friction transmission, spray carburetor and low tension ignition. This should not work very well because Frank did not want to drive again until November 10, when he announced through the morning paper Springfield Union. This car was brought to the camp in 1894 and remained there until 1920, when he was rescued by Inglis M. Uppercu and National Museum of the United States.


Henry Ford had the engine running in 1893, but it was before he built his first car in 1896. By the end of the year, Ford sold its first car, which he called quadracycle $ 200 and uses the money to build another. With financial support from the mayor of Detroit, William C. Maybury and other wealthy Detroiters, Ford formed the Detroit Automobile Company in 1899. Some prototypes were built, but there are no production cars ever produced by this company. It 'was dissolved in January 1901. Ford will offer car sales in 1903.


The first car race at Narragansett Park closed circuit, Rhode Iceland, however, in September 1896. All four cars are on the left Duryea, is the right Electrobat Morris & Salom. Thirteen were in 1896 Duryea product of the same type, which makes the vehicle before production.


On the left is a photo of the factory produces 13 Duryea. In 1898 the brothers separated and Duryea Motor Wagon Company was closed. Charles, born in 1861 and eight years ahead of Frank Frank in publicity and patents. Frank is left alone and finally with Stevens Arms and Tool Company on the Stevens-Duryea Company Westinghouse, which was sold in 1915, forming connected. Charles tried to produce some of their rabbit brain ideas with various companies until 1916. Then he enrolled limited to books and articles. He died in 1938. Frank has an affair half a million dollars from Westinghouse and lived in comfort until his death in 1967, just seven months after his 98 Birthday.

In this recording Ransom Eli Olds is a lever on his first gasoline engine. Riding beside him is Frank G. Clark, who built the body and the back are their wives. This car is from 1896, but production of the Olds company vehicle is not in Detroit until 1899. After an early failure with luxury vehicles they established the first really successful production with classic Curved Dash Oldsmobile.


Looped Dash Oldsmobile had a single cylinder engine, steering arm and chain drive. Sell ​​it for $ 650. In 1901 600 were sold and the following years were 1902-2500, 1903-4000, 1904-5000. In August 1904 Ransom age of the company resigned to Reo (for Ransom Eli Olds) to form. Ransom E. Olds was the first mass producer of gasoline-powered automobiles in the United States, however, Duryea was the first automaker with 13 parking spaces.


Ransom Olds limited number of electric cars at the turn of the century. Little is known about them and none survive. In the figure the left is the only known photograph of one of these machines rare. It 'was taken was recorded at Belle Iceland Park, Michigan. In 1899 and 1900, has sold all other types of electric cars and electric folk Columbia by Colonel Albert Pope in August, owner of American Bicycle Company constructed.
interesting note Olds electric.

JA, and H. Lutz man Koosen Lawson in 1895. This is typical of American design in the mid-1890. It 'was really horseless carriage. Tiller steering, engine under the floorboards, high center of gravity, not designed for street use. Think before you get to drive one of them and try to cross the city and around the various corners. Kind of fear is not it?

This Daimler of 1899 was owned by Lionel Rothschild. The European project is much more advanced American plans, at the same time. Gottlieb Daimler on the London to Brighton Run in 1896, but died in 1900 at the age of 66 without ever meeting Benz. His German engines powered the automobile industry of Great Britain and France.

1908 Haynes in the background shows the rapid development of the gasoline engine compared to 1894 model in the foreground. Consider the difference between 1998 and 1984 Tarus Tarus 14 years. Some difference. Elder Haynes argues that the construction of 1894 units in 1893, but no proof.

Rolls Royce Silver Ghost of 1906 six-cylinder car that stayed in production until 1925. This is the best equipment and technology that at the moment and these cars still run smoothly and quietly now. This period marks the beginning of the end of the car.
