1885 year

          Date, forever entering in annals of history of avtostroeniya.

     In this day the German engineer Charles Bents got a patent № 37435 on the creation is the first in the world car with a petrol motor.

     Predystoriya.
     It is possible to name steam дили­жансы the first real cars.

     In 1765 the Russian mechanic of Slide-blocks And. And. built the steam-engine of automatic action, and in 1769 she got over on по­возку.
     Its French engineer Nikola Kyun'o did. On sizes and weight she did not yield to the modern heavy trucks.

     A wagon was rough form and intended by plan of her созда­теля for transportation of artillery. She had three wheels, from which one ahead, conducting and simultaneously steering. Only water and топли­во, necessary for motion, weighed whole ton.
     Heavily гружен­ное steering wheel it was not under force to turn one. Two men got along hardly at him. A copper caldron with heating hung a heavy pear ahead of wagon and hissed, as Serpent Gorynych, wagon of ковы­ляла with speed no more than 4 км/час.

     And she moved all the same.
     In French a "driver" means "stoker", "boilerman". Actually, the driver of the first steam cars had anymore to work as a poker, what by management levers.

     It is accepted to consider Germans of Gotliba Daymlera and Charles Bentsa the inventors of petrol engine.

    But they built the search not on blank space. Many knots and aggregates were developed to them рань­ше. The number of their coauthors achieves 400. Daymlera supported one of front-rank people of togo time, Elinek, by name daughters of which is Mersedes — becoming is adopted in future known worldwide brand of cars.

    1885 year. Date, forever entering in annals of history of avtostroeniya. In this day the German engineer Charles Bents got a patent № 37435 on the creation is the first in the world car with a petrol motor.

     However, last years priority of Germans is contested by austrians, but to this collision we will return hardly later. And while will make an effort отве­тить on izvechnye questions: that does move history — case or зако­номерность? That more
important is personality or circumstances?
     After 1876, when Nicholas Augustin Otto patented the engine of внут­реннего combustion, a lot of clever people worked above his совершен­ствованием.

     And, maybe, borning in a small settlement near a city Karlsrue Charles Bents would remain one of sonma of nameless mechanics and engineers of togo time, the names of which now know only archivists.

     But a case bossed differently.
     In 1871 of рабо­тавший in a bridge building firm in Mangeyme Charles was betrothed with энер­гичной girl Bertoy Ringent. By the motto of young family of steel of word: "Faith, hope and fight". And now many historians suppose fully in earnest, that exactly showed out Bert avtostroenie on a large road.

     History of theft is a critical moment in life and career of Bentsa and already therefore deserves the detailed story.
     In 1885 Charles showed the burghers of Mangeyma the трех­колесный automotive crew with a petrol engine.

     However much a novelty caused not so much interest, how many irritation. When Bents decided to pass on a city, motor noise frightened the horse of butcher. She bore, spilling on a road gruz. To hush up scandal, Charles purchased the spoiled commodity, a car put under a cover and при­нялся to perfect him.

     A machine was "driven" away the early summer morning of 1888, when its creator slept.
     The eldest son Eugen sat down for a helm, next to him mother, behind is a cadet. They left to родствен­никам in a little small town Pfortskheym.

     However, it was only пред­лог. Adventures and agitations in transit it was enough. At that time petrol can it was be purchased only in the benchs of kerosenes, where he was sold as a mean for cleaning of clothes ot spots. Неисправ­ности had to be removed the improvised facilities — for прочист­ки of the littered petrol pipe of Bert used a long hat pin, and ribbon ot a hat — for fixing of details of the system of зажига­ния.

     But for all agitations and ordeals travelers were rewarded with usury. The habitants of Pfortskheyma gathered crowds, to stare on a three-wheeled "possessing a horse not wagon".

     All Germany knew about the distant motor race of Berty, a press paid serious attention not only to its trip but also on the car of Charles Bentsa. Thereafter and his way began to glory and success. But before all was differently.

     The first car of Bentsa, done in 1885, was a three-wheeled two-seater crew on high wheels with spokes. On him Bents put it new chetyrekhtaktnyy petrol motor with the aquatic cooling of мощно­стью 0,9 l.с.

     From 1888th Charles began to demonstrate the machines on между­народных motor-car exhibitions, but nevertheless businesses went neither shakily nor valko. A wide fame came to Bentsu only after the five-day trip of his wife.
