1769, Frenchman Juno made the world's first steam-driven tricycle.
This car is named "Caboret", with a length of 7.32m and a height of 2.2m There is a pear-like boiler on the frame, with a front wheel diameter of 1.28m and a rear wheel diameter of1.50m. When moving forward, the direction is controlled by the front wheel, every12 ~1.
The second car was made by 177 1, but it didn't really run. It is now on display at the National Gallery in Paris, France. Although Zhu Niu's invention failed, it is a watershed between ancient means of transportation (driven by people, animals or sails) and modern means of transportation (driven by power machinery), which is of epoch-making significance.

The birth of the first internal combustion engine car;
1885+00 In June, German Carl Benz (1844 ~ 1929) successfully developed the world's first car, which laid the foundation for car design in one fell swoop, even today's cars can't jump out of this box.
On 1886129 October, he applied to the German Patent Office for an automobile invention patent, which was officially approved by the Patent Office on12 October of the same year. Therefore,1886 65438+1October 29th is recognized as the birth date of the world automobile, and Ben Ci's patent certificate has also become the first automobile patent certificate in the world.
In fact, before Ben Ci, some people were already developing car engines and cars. The French newspaper reported the car invented by Renault as early as 1863. The speed was less than 8km /h, but it still ran 18km from Paris to Joveriboda.
1884, a Frenchman, Debo Thivel, made a three-wheeled car with a single-cylinder internal combustion engine and a four-wheeled car with a double-cylinder internal combustion engine with the internal combustion engine as the power source.
Long before the invention of the first automobile, there were many related inventions, such as lead-acid battery, ignition device of internal combustion engine, hard rubber solid tire, spring suspension and so on, so the automobile is a comprehensive application of many inventions or technologies.
