Who is the inventor of hot air balloon?

Inventors of hot air balloons: the Montgomery brothers.

A hot air balloon is an aircraft lighter than air, with an atmospheric sphere on the upper part and a hanging basket on the lower part. Air is heated inside the balloon, and the air density is lower than that of cold air outside, which plays a role in buoyancy and makes the whole body shift; Hanging baskets can carry passengers and heat sources (mostly open flames). Modern sports balloons are usually made of nylon fabric and the opening is made of refractory material.

Can be used in air sports, photography, tourism and so on. The first manned hot air balloon was made by Montgolfier Brothers, and was launched in Jean-Fran, Paris, France on June1783+065438+1October 2 1. ois Pil？ Trederozil and Fran? It was initiated by Ois Laurent d'Arlandes.

Extended data:

Balloon Council (CIA) under the International Aviation Federation (FAI) classifies balloons into four categories according to the different gases filled:

Model 1, AA:

Gas lighter than air, such as hydrogen or helium, is filled, the airbag is not sealed and there is no heating device;

2. Axe type:

The air bag is filled with air, which is heated by the device to make it lighter and get lift, also known as hot air balloon;

3.AM type:

Balloons filled with "light gas" (such as hydrogen or helium) and equipped with heating devices are also called Luo Ze balloons.

4. AS type:

Inflated with "light gas" (such as hydrogen or helium), the airbag is sealed and its height can be controlled by the amount of inflation, so it is used for scientific research.
