Excerpt: ...by an arm, and which can be readily collapsed to allow of its diameter being reduced, is provided on its periphery with two lateral grooves corresponding to the position of the wires in the edges of the tire and also preferably, a central ridge corresponding approximately to the curvature of the tread portion of the tire. Each side of the drum is provided with a series of hooks or an annular groove for the reception of a tension band. The fabric which is to form the tire is placed in position around the periphery of the drum, the tension bands being placed on it and employed to assist in smoothing out the fabric and holding it in position while the wires are being placed in the edges and the latter turned over. When the process of building up is completed, the drum is collapsed and the tire removed therefrom. Another form of collapsible drum has a flat periphery in which are formed grooves for the reception of the wires, but no central ridge. This drum may be employed to form pockets of fabric containing the retaining wires, the fabric being stretched and smoothed out with the aid of the tension bands and then the edges folded over the wires. After the latter has been put in position, the edges of the fabric meeting about the center of the strip, the latter is cut down the center so as to leave the two pockets complete with the wires therein. To facilitate the shaping of the tire previous to its completion a third form of collapsible drum is provided with a periphery grooved so that the cross section corresponds to the cross section of the channel or tire receiving face of a wheel rim. The tire carcass previous to the outer rubber covering being applied thereto, is placed on this drum and inflated, when the fabric of which it is formed...

This book was released on 2016-04-06 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Alternative History of Bicycles and Motorcycles: Two-Wheeled Transportation and Material Culture accounts for the nineteenth-century creation and development of two-wheeled vehicles, both human-powered and motorized. Specifically, the book focuses on the period from 1885 (which saw the appearance, simultaneously, of the Safety bicycle and the Einspur, the first motorcycle) to 1920, while exploring implications for later bicycling and motorcycling. We argue that invention of these vehicles, rather than the product of gifted individuals, should be seen as the consequence of a number of historical, economic, cultural and political forces that intersect so unpredictably that the notion of a genius inventor is reductive. The common evolutionary model of development from the bicycle to the motorcycle oversimplifies both the technology and its origins. Stripping the vehicles of all their material and cultural associations, such a model fails to advance our understanding of the devices, their creators, and their riders. Taking a contemporary vehicle and tracing its lineage creates a false sense of evolutionary necessity in its creation, and fails to account for the many possible developmental paths that were, for whatever reason, abandoned. By contrast, our book adopts a material culture approach, a form of inquiry that stresses the connections between artifacts and social relations. We consider not simply the bicycle and motorcycle as material objects but focus also on the complex socio-political and economic convergences that produced the materials, materials that in turn themselves shaped the vehicles’ appearance, function, and adoption by riders.

Download or read book The Rise and Fall of the Amazon Rubber Industry written by Stephen L. Nugent and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this engaging book, Stephen Nugent offers an in-depth historical anthropology of a widely recognised feature of the Amazon region, examining the dramatic rise and fall of the rubber industry. He considers rubber in the Amazon from the perspective of a long-term extractive industry that linked remote forest tappers to technical innovations central to the industrial transformation of Europe and North America, emphasizing the links between the social landscape of Amazonia and the global economy. Through a critical examination focused on the rubber industry, Nugent addresses myths that continue to influence perceptions of Amazonia. The book challenges widely held assumptions about the hyper-naturalism of the ‘lost world’ of the Amazon where ‘the challenge of the tropics’ is still to be faced and the ‘frontiers of development’ are still to be settled. It is relevant for students and scholars of anthropology, Latin American studies, history, political ecology, geography and development studies.
