I want to know the history of automobile development?
The invention history of the automobile is the most amazing and inexplicable and representative example in the history of human civilization. Only 1 years ago, cars were just exciting monsters in the circus, but today there are 25 million cars running on the roads all over the country. Millions of people are using cars to make a living or travel. Cars have changed the way of life of human beings so greatly that people today can't even imagine how people will live once they leave the car. In the history of automobile invention, some days are of historical significance. In the history of mankind, the first means of transportation running by its own power was a steam car, which was driven by a steam engine. In 1769, French army captain Gunnar built a three-wheeled steam tractor to pull the cannon. When it was first used in 177, the speed was only 5 kilometers per hour. The manned power vehicle was invented by the British. In 181, the British inventor Trevisick made a four-wheeled steam caravan. In early 183, Sir Gianni built a six-wheeled steam carriage with a top speed of 24 kilometers per hour. By the middle of 183, steam carriages in Britain had become a general means of transport for passengers, and some even carried as many as 22 passengers. The development of American steam locomotives originated from an inventor and steam engine engineer named Evans. In 185, Evans completed a dredger operated by a steam engine. This dredger weighs 16 tons and is the first power machine known to travel on land and water. Many American inventors began to test and manufacture steam locomotives in the late 19th century, among which Carhart, Dodge and Roper were the most successful. Among the steam cars made by hundreds of American automobile companies, the most famous one is the steam locomotive made by Dobel and Stanley's twin brothers. Because it is difficult to start and operate, the steam locomotive is not practical, and the steam generated by the steam boiler is too slow for long-distance travel, and many people are afraid to drive the steam locomotive with open heat boiler. From 189 to 19, electric cars were very popular in America. Electric cars became popular for their quiet and easy operation. However, because its speed is only 32 kilometers per hour, and it must be recharged once when driving 8 kilometers, it is also a headache. Therefore, after the invention of gasoline engine, electric vehicles are no longer loved by people. 186 and 1885 are two years in the history of automobile invention. In 186, the French inventor Leo made a single-cylinder internal combustion engine. In 1863, Leo installed his internal combustion engine on a vehicle, which traveled 1 kilometers in two hours. So cars with internal combustion engines (also called gasoline engines) replaced steam cars and electric cars. The engine used in cars today was first made in Germany in 1885. That year, gottlieb daimler and Carl Benwin successfully built gasoline engines respectively. Daimler used his engine to propel a two-wheeled motorcycle, while Ben Ci put the engine on a three-wheeled car. The prototype of the modern car was developed in France. Lavasso and Panhart were partners in a carriage company and made their first car in 189. The following year, the first car with a front gasoline engine was built. At that time, this car, like other early cars, used chains to drive the rear wheels. In 1898, Renault replaced the chain with a drive shaft, which was a great improvement in the history of automobiles. Earlier in 189, many American inventors were experimenting with the power used in cars, and many of them claimed that they had made the first gasoline-powered car. These people include Lambert and Harris, but most people think that the duryea brothers, namely Charles and Frank, are the people who made the first gasoline-powered car and succeeded. It was in 1893, but in subsequent experiments, the car was damaged. In 1895, duryea Brothers established the first automobile factory in the United States to manufacture gasoline engines. In 1894 and the following years, it was a crucial moment for cars to move from the laboratory to the street, and pioneers of American automobile manufacturing appeared on the stage of automobile history. In 1894, elwood Haynes designed the early American cars. In 1896, Ford and charles king drove their first car around Detroit, USA. Ford successfully trial-produced the first "four-wheeled vehicle", so it was called "the man who put wheels on the world". In the same year, Oudi, who invented the steam car, also made his first gasoline engine car. Alexander winton also successfully experimented with his car. The pioneers of American automobile manufacturing industry have become very famous families in the subsequent great development of automobile industry. Today, Detroit, the "automobile kingdom" of the United States, is home to the headquarters of GM, Ford and Chrysler, and the history of the Ford family can be regarded as a microcosm of the development history of the automobile industry. In the history of automobile invention, Henry Ford (later known as Ford I) is a man who should be featured in capital letters, although Henry Ford is not an inventor, although Henry Ford's achievements are based on the work of others. Ford Motor Company is the fourth largest company in the world. Founded in 193, it now has more than 5, employees, 2 enterprises and branches abroad, and produces and sells more than 5.1 million cars and trucks every year. It is also engaged in the development and production of aircraft, tanks, radars, ballistic missiles and military satellites, and also engages in other industrial production. In 1987, Ford's profit was more than 4.6 billion dollars, making it the most profitable company in the world. And all this started with the creation of the penniless but gifted Henry Ford. On July 3, 1863, Henry Ford was born in the home of a wealthy farmer in Weiss County, Michigan. Henry began to repair clocks and watches at the age of seven, which showed his genius for playing with machinery. He once almost knocked off his finger when disassembling a thresher. When the steam pot for the experiment exploded, a piece of his lip was blown off. One day in 1876, when young Henry Ford and his father were going to Detroit in a carriage, Henry saw a steam car coming towards him by its own power. Later, Henry regarded that day as the day when he became interested in modifying the engine. In 1899, Henry Ford, with the support of William Murphy, announced the establishment of Detroit Automobile Company on August 15th. This is the earliest automobile manufacturing company in Detroit, and its capital added up to 15 thousand dollars, which was second to none in the American automobile industry at that time. It is a miracle that Henry Ford was able to rally the main pillars of Detroit's business community behind him in three years after he built that four-wheeled vehicle. On January 12, 19, he introduced a brand-new car-a delivery car powered by gasoline; High body, black and shiny shell, flat side, and a covered seat for two people protruding from the front of the car. In June 193, Ford Motor Company officially opened. On July 15th, 193, after the first customer bought a Model A car, it became the beginning of people's rush to buy Ford cars. L years later, Ford Motor Company earned its capital back. At the beginning of 195, Ford Motor Company delivered 25 cars every day, and at the same time, parts for assembling 25 cars were brought into the factory. Ford Motor Company has also set up an agent sales network to promote Henry Ford's cars. Since its establishment, Henry Ford Motor Company has adopted the mass production mode advocated by Austin. At this time, Henry Ford's car 999 has surpassed Winton. However, the internal friction between Austin and Osmoby Motor Company provided Henry Ford with a once-in-a-century opportunity to make cars. As the "originator" of American modern automobile industry, Ford also founded the Ford Museum in 1929. The colorful Ford Museum covers an area of 73 mu, which used to be the research institute of the great inventor Edison, and it contains six themes: the evolution of automobile and automobile industry; The development of roadside commercial and recreational facilities serving motorists; Recreational driving; The influence of automobile advertisement on culture; Aesthetic influence of automobile design; And how to make your car have its own style. All kinds of cars on display in the museum are described by Jane, a historian of America, a big automobile country. Whether it is the oldest water wheel, the car without a roof or the first car driving on the moon, all reveal the courage and ability of human beings to change themselves and conquer nature.
