In fact, Edison held a number of patents related to the electric vehicle, including Electric Generator or Motor (1884), a Means for Propelling Electric Cars (1891), a Reversible Galvanic Battery (1900), an Electrode for Batteries (1901), an Alkaline Battery (1904), and an Electrical System for Automobiles (1912). Edison’s patent on a Means for Propelling Electric Cars (1891) related more to trolleys than automobiles, but his general description laid the groundwork for his 1904 Electric Automobile Patent. • https://insideevs.com/revealed-thomas-edison-shocks-world-with-1904-electric-automobile-patent/ J.

    Henry Ford: Driving America Into the Future

    Henry Ford: Driving America Into the Future Junior Division Group Documentary Michelle and Frances Kroll Process Paper: 500 Words Process Paper For our 2015 National History Day Project, we have decided to research Henry Ford. Ever since we were little, we have been interested in engineering and how things work. We thought of many innovators throughout history who have invented or engineered something that has changed people’s lives. Some different leaders we were considering were Thomas Edison, the Wright Brothers, and Nikola Tesla. Although all these people fit this year’s theme, we decided to go with Henry Ford because we can relate to him. His innovations greatly affect the lives of people just like us. We conducted our research for our project in an organized manner. While one group member spent their time researching secondary sources, the other researched primary sources. This way, we made sure to research both types of sources. We found our primary sources on online archives and museum websites, and we found our secondary sources on credible history websites and a variety of books. We conducted one of our interviews at Cal Poly Pomona with Professor John Lloyd. Then, we went to the Automotive Driving Museum where we interviewed two specialists. The last interview we conducted was at the Petersen Automobile Museum with Chief Curator Leslie Kendall. Our best source was The Henry Ford because it had many pictures and primary documents that provided further insight for our documentary. Once we finished citing, our bibliography contained many different sources, showing the diversity in our research.
