On December 17th, 193, the Wright brothers from America finally made a successful test flight after a long period of efforts? Voyager one? When you see flying in the sky? Voyager one? At that time, residents near the Wright brothers' house couldn't believe their eyes. Although it only stayed in the sky for 59 seconds, it was in the record of human flight test at that time? Insist? The longest time!
The Wright brothers were able to accomplish this great pioneering work not because of their higher education, but because of their love for manned flight. It is understood that the daily work of the two brothers is to repair bicycles in the factory, perhaps because of contact with machinery at work, and they are inexplicably obsessed with invention. Before the Wright brothers invented the airplane, although some people tried to improve the principle of flying equipment, they all failed. Their success was also achieved through hard work again and again. After painstaking efforts, the Wright brothers made warped wings, changed their traditional thinking and created a flying record of nearly one minute.
After the successful flight, the two brothers had already finished half of their research results, and the world was about to change. The former suddenly closed himself up. Although the Wright brothers? Voyager one? They were successful, but they didn't want to share their research results with others. At that time, the United States was coming? Invention fever? . Others make inventions in small groups, and the research results are shared, which is inevitable to be plagiarized by others. The Wright brothers pay special attention to scientific research interests. In order to prevent future troubles, the two brothers immediately applied for a patent from the US government after the creation of the aircraft principle.
on may 22, 196, the Wright brothers? Innovative mechanism for controlling aircraft in flight? The patent application was approved and they got their wish. You think this is over? The fact is far more than that! In the years after obtaining the patent, the Wright brothers no longer focused on improving the flight principle, but focused on collecting money. Because of the patent, the Wright brothers demanded patent fees from enterprises or individuals who began to study aircraft later. As long as someone refused, they would immediately take the lawsuit.
Curtis, a bicycle repairman who was famous for designing airplanes at the same time as the Wright brothers, made it? June Beetle? Soon after its launch, it was successfully tested, which caused a sensation in the United States and was reported by major media. The news soon reached the ears of the Wright brothers, who filed an application with the court without saying anything, claiming that their patents had been plagiarized by Curtis, hoping that Curtis would destroy them? June Beetle? And compensate the two brothers for their economic losses. In this way, Curtis lost a sum of money inexplicably.
There are many similar examples. Except Curtis, American manufacturers, large and small, will be sued if they have anything to do with the Wright brothers' patent knowledge when creating aircraft and developing aircraft. The Wright brothers earned a lot of money from their own patents and tasted the sweetness that they never dared to think of before. In 1914, the U.S. court announced that since then, all aircraft manufacturers affiliated to the United States have to pay one-fifth of the patent licensing fees to the Wright brothers. Now, at first glance, it is simply sky-high, and it is really science and technology to create wealth!
