When were roller skates invented?

Roller skating is the transition of skating. According to reports, the earliest roller skates were born in 1 100. At that time, roller skates put bones on the soles of long leather boots so that hunters could hunt in winter. The Dutchman, a scot, creatively made the first pair of roller skates in 1700. He wants to simulate the ice Sha Ting in summer, so he tries to install wooden spools under his shoes and try to slide on the flat ground. After constant failure and improvement, he finally succeeded and created the history of "skating" with wheels and shoes. Since then, roller skating was born in Europe and began to develop.

1860, Joseph Merlin, a Belgian musical instrument manufacturer, made a pair of roller skates by hand. However, when he came to the London World Expo with his masterpiece and showed it to the enthusiastic London audience, something unexpected happened. Unable to brake, he broke a big mirror and injured someone. After the matter was fully reported by the media, it caused great concern. Since then, roller skating has been regarded as a "dangerous sport" and has been neglected for a long time.

18 19, M.Peitibled recorded the first pair of inline skates in a French invention patent, which were linear skates composed of two or three wheels. However, this configuration did not reach the expected "popularity" and ended without results.

1823, Rob John of London designed a pair of roller skates and called them "Rorito".

There were five wheels on the sole, but these shoes were not taken seriously at that time.

The real roller skates were invented by James Pliem Puton of the United States in 1863. He made a pair of roller skates with four wheels side by side. In this pair of shoes, James Pliem Puton also creatively changed the wood into a metal wheel, which can turn, advance and retreat when sliding, so it is very popular. This invention greatly promoted the development of roller skating, and of course, James Pliem Puton also made a fortune.

From 65438 to 0866, James invested in opening the first indoor roller skating rink in new york, and organized the new york Roller Skating Association, which included roller skating in official sports events for the first time, and roller skating quickly spread to European countries. 1879, the national skating association was established in Britain, and four years later, roller skating was also managed by the association.

1884, Richardson and Raymond of the United States invented the ball bearing, which played a great role in improving the technology of roller skates.
