Were once small This is the blog of a narrator who looks in the literature a space for fantasy, but really can not escape reality. Here you will find stories and reflections, The can was invented in England in 1810 by British merchant Peter Durand, who had signed an agreement with the government to provide rations. Although introduced in North America in 1817 as a means of preserving food, tinplate was virtually ignored until 1816, when the 23 northern states of the Union warred against the 11 southern states of the American Civil War Confederación.La raised the need for canned guaranteed for the troops, and popularized in the U.S. the can, as he did the War of 1812 in Great Bretaña.En 1895, food in metal containers could be found in all grocery stores. However, despite the demonstrated great ingenuity in devising Peter Durand tinplate containers, completely forgot that they needed a tool to open them. In 1812, British soldiers opened the knife or bayonet cans, and if they still resisted, to death. A can of beef that took to the Arctic in 1824 the British explorer Sir William Parry, bore the following statement: "Cut round the top with a chisel and a hammer." In fact, some historians say the war bayonet, whose first issue was built by a blacksmith from Bayonne, was not intended to be used as a weapon, but as an opener. Even the Englishman William Underwood, Early in the century that Settled in New Orleans nineteenth first cannery, deemed necessary to produce a special tool to open their packages. His advice, followed by everyone in those days was to use any tool or blunt object that had at home. In the gross, come on. However, this omission was not due entirely to a case of collective stupidity on both continents, but the reality was that the first cans were very thick and large, often of iron, and sometimes heavier than the food they contained. The can of meat used by Sir William Parry weighed, once empty, about half a kilo. Only when widespread a thinner steel container with a rim around the top, at the end of 1850, the opener had his opportunity to perform at all useful. And patented the first built in can opener that came to replace the hammers, chisels, and rifles and pistols, was invented in 1858 by the Jewish Eszra J. Warnes, Waterbury, Connecticut. He was a voluminous and impressive device. In part bayonet and sickle in part, was introduced his big curved blade at the edge of the can, and using force, he had slipped over the edge. A distraction or a slip could cause major injuries. American families, accustomed to their own methods for opening cans, ignored the invention of Warner, who only saved from oblivion its adoption by the army during the civil war. The opener, as we use today, with a cutting wheel that rotates around the rim of the container-USA was the result of inventor William W. Lyman, who patented it in 1870. Revolutionary in concept and design, throughout its long history only underwent significant modification. In 1925, the Star Can Opener Company, San Francisco, perfected the device by adding a sprocket Lyman called "feeder wheel," thanks to which the container turned, for the first time, contrary to the wheel. This basic principle is still used and was the base of the electric can opener, presented in December 1931. Today more and more unnecessary opener.
