以齿轮为核心部件的自动机器对近代科学的建立起了非常重要的作用。首先,齿轮式钟表提供了精确计时的手段,促进了科学实验的发展;其次,齿轮机构承受了来自蒸汽机的巨大动力压力,使得印刷机等自动机器得以面世,推动了近代科学的形成与发展;最后,自动机器直接演化为自动计算机器,其影响力一直持续到今天。 The automatic machine with gear as the core component has played a very important role in modern science. First, gear-type clocks provide a precise means of timing and promote the development of scientific experiments. Secondly, the gear mechanism withstands the great dynamic pressure from the steam engine, making the automatic machines such as printing presses available and promoting the formation and development of modern science. Finally, automated machines have evolved directly into automated computing machines and their influence continues today.
