Brief introduction of the founder of Mercedes-Benz
Gottlieb daimler (1834- 1900) was born in a handicraft family in Dover, Schon. He was an engineer of Deutz Gas Engine Co., Ltd., improved the Otto four-stroke engine, manufactured the Daimler horizontal engine, and transformed the horizontal engine into a vertical engine. 1885 On August 29th, Daimler installed this engine on a car and obtained the patent of "riding a two-wheeled vehicle", which is actually the first motorcycle in the world. In order to celebrate his wife Emma's 43rd birthday, he installed a vertical engine on the carriage, and Daimler's first carriage was born, which was closely related to the birth of Ben Ci's patented car. Together with Ben Ci, he is called "the father of cars". The world-famous Daimler-Benz Company is named after them.
Mr. Karl Benz is one of the pioneers of the world automobile industry (1844- 1929), the founder of the German Benz Automobile Company, and is known as the "originator of automobiles". He was born in a craftsman's family in Karlsruhe, Germany. He loved natural science since he was a child and earned some pocket money by repairing watches. He was an apprentice in a machinery factory, a painter and designer in a large-scale factory, and a foreman in a bridge construction company. Ben Ci has no workshops or funds, so his wife sold her dowry and jewels. After several years of hard work, he changed the design and assembled the engine. With the support of royal photographer Biller, he improved the Otto four-stroke engine. Finally, Carl Benz successfully trial-produced the world's first three-wheeled car with a single cylinder engine on129.
The origin of Mercedes-Benz logo
Daimler applied for the patent of Samsung logo on 1909, but Ben Ci belongs to the round badge. Mercedes-Benz logo comes from Daimler's letter to his wife. He thinks that the stars he draws on the house will bring him good luck. This three-pointed star also symbolizes the development of Mercedes-Benz in three directions: land, sea and air. 1909, in order to commemorate the mass production of his VELO car, Mr. Daimler changed the gear pattern in the three-pointed star to laurel branches to show victory, and the "Mercedes-Benz" in the logo was taken from the name of Emile Jelinek's beautiful daughter. "Mercedes-Benz" means lucky in Spanish. Unfortunately, this beautiful woman died in an unhappy marriage at the age of 40, but the practice of naming her after her has not disappeared. 19 16, the star logo and the name of Mercedes-Benz finally merged into one, and with the merger of the two oldest automobile manufacturers, the factory applied for a patent right for the trademark again, and the star logo on this ring evolved into today's pattern, which has been in use ever since. And become one of the top ten famous trademarks in the world.
