Garrett+-+Automobile

 I chose for my invention research project to do the automobile. I chose the automobile because it interested me how the first car was ever made, and how they got the idea of the body of the first car.

European engineers starting messing with motor vehicles back in the 1700's. By the 1800's they have attemted all electrical motors. Before the automobile was invented everyone that worked in the city lived in the city, and everyone that worked on a farm lived in the country. But then the car was invented and people started moving into different towns and suburbs of the cites and farms because they had a way to get to work every day and they didnt want to live with all the fumes in the city.The life in the city has been more prominent than the life in the suburbs. The car has spread the life from the city out into the suburbs. Highway transportation encourages business and industry to move.

The Fardier a three wheeled steam powered, 2.3 mph vehicle was built in 1771 by Nicholas Joseph Cugnot for the French minster of war. The car was never put into production to make more of because it was so much slower and harder to drive than a horse and buggy was. Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach built the milestone vehicle in Germany in 1889. It was a 1.5 hp, two-cylinder gasoline engine. It traveled at 10 mph with a 4 speed transmission. Karl Benz, also built a gasoline powered car the same year. The automobile remained largely a curiosity for the rest of the nineteenth century, with only a handful of the being built in Europe and United States. In 1937 Amedee Bollee built an improved 12 passengersteam engine car. But the steam engine proved impractical for a machine that was meant to challenge the speed of a horse and buggy. The automobile had to want the invention of a workable internal combustion engine. `1

A lot of people think that the idea of electric cars is a new idea but it’s not, they were born in the 1930's, in Scotland by Robert Anderson, or in Holland by a Groningen professor. More electric automobiles would arrive shortly after these earliest of prototypes, as the usefulness and power of batteries gradually improved over the next fifty years.

The curved dash Oldsmobile was produced in 1901, it was built in the United States by Ransom E. Olds. Modern automobile mass production was started when the assembly line was created for Henry Ford in Detroit Michigan. He built his first gasoline car in 1896. Ford started making his Model T in 1908. In 1927 over 18 million of the cars had rolled off he assembly line.

Henry Ford is the person who freed people from their limiuse you had a car to take you to them places. In the days of the horse being transportation the limit would be 10 to 15 miles, so that meant any community or individual farm more thtations of places they can go because before he invented the car you had to walk everywhere and that wouldn’t be very far, but after he invented the car you could go wherever you wanted becaan 15 miles from a city, a railroad, or a navigable waterway was isolated from the mainstream of economic and social life.The life in the city has been more prominent than the life in the suburbs. The car has spread the life from the city out into the suburbs. Highway transportation encourages business and industry to move out to the sites where the land is a lot cheaper and a lot easier to access than it is in the crowded cities because not many people live out in the suburbs.European engineers starting messing with motor vehicles back in the 1700's. By the 1800's they have attempted all electrical motors. They didn’t know what type of engine that they were going to use in the automobile by the 1900's. They didn’t have a battery that existed that could make a car go at very fast speeds.

Now the automobile was here to stay is what was obvious. Frenchman, Panhard and Levassor was yet to alter the standard modern car. Who had the idea of putting the engine in the front of the car, but gasoline still had to fend off the competition from the electric car and steam powered cars before the gasoline engine could rule the roads. And the gas car would rule the roads.There were many people with the plan to design the first car but could not figure it out. Guido da Vigevano was the first person to design the wind powered car in 1335. They wanted to use the idea and build vehicles for the military’s in the crusades because things were going bad for them. The wind car had a windmill on the back a a strong wooden carriage. They had said that this car could go almost 30 mph.

I have now researched everything about the automobile that i would like to. I have learned that the first automobile was made in 1335. It was a windmill type powered car. There was another car that was made after that but it was never made into production.
