THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION: TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES , INVENTIONS TO IMPROVE LIFE

  • THE SEED DRILL

    THE SEED DRILL
    A plow at the front created the row, and a harrow at the back covered the seed with soil. It was the first agricultural machine with moving parts. It started as a one-man, one-row device, but later designs sowed seeds in three uniform rows, had wheels and were drawn by horses. Using wider spacing than previous practices allowed horses to draw the equipment and not step on the plants.
  • THE PIANO

    THE PIANO
    The piano was invented by Bartolomeo cristofory in 1709. The piano is a big table what makes music thanks a keys and in the big table are there are mini keys, pus the keys and the piano expels de sound. the keys hit a mini table with a rope and the rope hit a another rope and make the musik. The piano touge for a big misician, In 1713 the musicians learn the notes and touge the piano bery well.
  • FIRST MERCURY THERMOMETER

    FIRST MERCURY THERMOMETER
    thermometers measure temperature by using that change in some way when they are heated or cooled. IN the thermometer are mercury or alcohol. the liquid spand on the thermometer, when it 's hot the mercury up in the thermomether. The termomether was inbented in 1724 for Gabriel farenheit.
  • THE FLYING SHUTTLE

    THE FLYING SHUTTLE
    In 1733, John Kay invented the flying shuttle an improvement to weaving looms and a key contribution to the industrial revolution.
    Kay was born on June 17, 1704, in the Lancashire hamlet of Walmersley.His father, Robert was a farmer and wool manufacturer but died before he was born. He apprenticed with a hand-loom reed maker and also designed a metal substitute for the natural reed that became popular enough to sell throughout England.
  • Spinning Jenny

    Spinning Jenny
    During the 1700s, a number of inventions set the stage for an industrial revolution in weaving. Among them were the flying shuttle, the spinning jenny, the spinning frame, and the cotton gin. Together, these new tools allowed for the handling of large quantities of harvested cotton. Credit for the spinning jenny, the hand-powered multiple spinning machine invented in 1764, goes to a British carpenter and weaver named James Hargreaves.
  • SPINNING FRAME

    SPINNING FRAME
    The spinning frame was a device that could produce stronger threads for yarns. the first model were powered by waterwheels so the device came to be known as the water frame. It was the first powered, automatic, and continuous textile machine and enabled the move away from small home manufacturing towards factory production, kickstarting the Industrial Revolution.
  • ELECTRIC TELEGRAMH

    ELECTRIC TELEGRAMH
    The electric telegraph is a now outdated communication system that transmitted electric signals over wires from location to location and then translated into a message. His system was visual and used semaphore, a flag-based alphabet, and depended on a line of sight for communication. The optical telegraph was later replaced by the electric telegraph, which is the focus of this article.
  • SPINNING MULE

    In early civilizations, yarn was spun using simple handheld tools: the distaff, which held the raw fiber material, such as wool, hemp, or cotton and the spindle, onto which the twisted fibers were wound.The technology is thought to have traveled from Iran to India and was eventually introduced to Europe
  • THE COTTON GIN

    THE COTTON GIN
    A cotton gin is a machine that removes the seeds from raw cotton fiber, a previously labor-intensive process. In one day, a single Whitney cotton gin could produce nearly 60 pounds of clean, ready to weave cotton. By contrast, hand-cleaning could produce only a few pounds of cotton in a day.
  • BATTERY

    BATTERY
    Constructed of alternating discs of zinc and copper with pieces of cardboard soaked in brine between the metals, the voltaic pile produced an electrical current. The metallic conducting arc was used to carry the electricity over a greater distance. Alessandro Volta's voltaic pile was the first battery that produced a reliable, steady current of electricity.
