Ekuqaleni kokunakekelwa kweselula: ukuzalwa kwe-ambulensi enemoto
Ukusuka Emahhashini Kuya Ezinjinini: Ukuvela Kwezokuthutha Eziphuthumayo Zezokwelapha
Umsuka Wokuqamba Okusha
The i-ambulensi, njengoba siyazi namuhla, ine- umlando omude noyinkimbinkimbi kusukela ekhulwini le-15 eSpain, lapho kwakusetshenziswa khona izinqola zokuthutha abalimele. Kodwa-ke, isinyathelo sokuqala sangempela sokwenza izinto zibe sesimanje senzeka ngasekupheleni kwekhulu le-19 lapho kwethulwa i-ambulensi enezimoto. Lolu shintsho lwezinguquko lwenzeka ngo Chicago, lapho 1899, Michael Reese Hospital wethule i i-ambulensi yokuqala enemoto. Le nqola, esebenzisa igesi, yayimelela ukugxuma okuphawulekayo ukuya phambili isuka ezinqoleni ezidonswa amahhashi ezazisetshenziswe kuze kube yileso sikhathi.
I-Evolution Kwezokuthutha Eziphuthumayo
Ekuqaleni kwekhulu lama-20, ama-ambulensi aqala ukuba izimoto ezikhiqizwa ngobuningi. Ngo-1909, UJames Cunningham, Indodana & Inkampani yaseRochester, eNew York, yakhiqiza uchungechunge lokuqala lwama-ambulensi anezimoto, okuphawula ukuqala kwenkathi entsha kwezokuthutha zezokwelapha eziphuthumayo. Lezi zimoto bezifakwe injini enamasilinda amane, angu-32-horsepower futhi zivunyelwe ukuthutha ezinye. imishini kanye nabasebenzi, okwenza ngcono kakhulu ukusebenza kahle kwezimo eziphuthumayo.
Kusukela eMpini Yezwe I kuya Enkathini Yanamuhla
Ngesikhathi Impi Yezwe I, ama-ambulensi anezimoto abonakala ebaluleke kakhulu. Izinhlangano ezifana ne I-American Volunteer Motor Ambulance Corps wasebenzisa iFord Model-T, okwathi ngenxa yokumiswa kwayo nokulungisa kalula, yaba imoto ebalulekile enkundleni yempi. I-ambulensi enezimoto isize ukuchaza kabusha incazelo ye-ambulensi, iguqule isuke ekubeni yindlela elula yokuhamba yaba yinto ebalulekile ekusindiseni izimpilo zabantu.
Intuthuko Iyaqhubeka
Ngokuhamba kweminyaka, ama-ambulensi aqhubekile nokuvela, abe amayunithi ezokwelapha eselula ezobuchwepheshe. Namuhla, i i-ambulensi yesimanje ifakwe ubuchwepheshe obuphambili bezokwelapha nokuxhumana futhi yakhelwe elolini kanye ne-van chassis ukuze kwandiswe isikhala nokusebenza kahle. Lokhu kuthuthukiswa kudalwe isidingo esiqhubekayo sezimoto zokuphendula izimo eziphuthumayo ezisheshayo, eziphephile, nezihlakaniphe kakhudlwana.
