Know little about kites
There are three legends about the origin of kites.
First, the hat and the leaves say; Second, sailing boats and tents; Third, said the bird. However, the conclusion that kites originated in China is generally recognized by the kite industry in the world.
Both the hat and the leaves say that the hat is an ancient rain-proof and heatstroke-proof appliance, which was used when people changed from fishing and hunting to farming, especially in tropical and subtropical areas. At that time, the hats were simple to make, and the tethers were all made from local materials, using soft leather fibers. It is said that a farmer was plowing the field when a strong wind suddenly rolled up his hat. The farmer ran after him and grabbed the tether.
It happened that the tether was very long and the hat flew in the air like a kite. The farmer thought it was very interesting. He often put hats on the villagers in the future, and later he turned into flying kites.
It is said that these leaves come from the south of China. It is said that ancient people worshipped the phenomenon of leaves flying all over the sky, so they tied the leaves with hemp and other things to play, which gradually evolved into a kite-flying activity.
Gaoshan nationality in Taiwan Province province of China and Li nationality in Hainan island made kites from leaves of bread trees earlier. Sailing boats and tents say that people have used wooden boats for a long time, and they have been used in production as early as 2000 BC.
Then the sailboat. Legend has it that there are sails on the boat when you are there.
Sailing is a machine with the help of wind power, so people set kites and fly them according to the principle of sailing. It is also said that kites originated from tents in the north. The earliest kites were made by people imitating the phenomenon of strong winds blowing tents in the air, and later gradually evolved into an entertainment activity.
Bird said that from the current historical records and the discovery of ancient kites, its structure, shape, painting technology and so on. A prominent symbol is birds with many shapes. So it is concluded that the first kites were inspired by birds, imitated by birds and named after them.
Advocating, loving and imitating birds to make kites is people's pursuit of a better life. It is natural that kites are born of it.
Exploring the history of Weifang kites can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period more than two thousand years ago. At that time, people used birds as shapes and wood as materials to make "wooden kites" to fly in the air.
According to "Everything is done by Han Feizi, the foreign reserve says left", "Mozi is a wooden kite, which was made in three years and lost in one day." His student Lu Ban, according to his vision, "cut bamboo into magpies and they will fly in three days", and later "made a wooden kite to see Song Cheng", which is the earliest kite recorded in history books.
Mo Zhai and Luban are both ancient Qingzhou people, and now they are both in Weifang. It can be seen that kites were flying over Weifang two thousand years ago.
The development of kites: After kites came into being, they became attached to the war. In 203-202 BC, Chu and Han contended, and Liu Bang led 400,000 troops and besieged Xiang Yu in Gaixia (now Lingbi County, Anhui Province).
In order to demoralize Xiang Yu, Han Xin made a big kite out of cowhide and let the flute boy lie on it and play a tune. The faint tunes and Chu songs sung by the Han army made the Chu army homesick. As a result, Xiang Yu broke up without a fight. Kite, as people's favorite entertainment, began in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
At that time, due to the development of paper industry, people began to paste kites with paper, which was easy to obtain and cheap. In the Five Dynasties, Ye Li flew kites in the palace and put bamboo whistle into the air along the wires.
When the wind blows the bamboo flute, it sounds like A Zheng, which is very pleasant. From then on, "paper kite" was gradually called "kite". By the Song Dynasty, flying kites had become a folk entertainment and custom activity.
In the Song Dynasty, the meticulous "Old Wulin Stories" recorded that people rushed to fly kites in the suburbs every time they went to Tomb-Sweeping Day, and they were reluctant to set foot on their way home until nightfall. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, kites became more popular. They not only entered the lives of ordinary people, but also merged into the works of literati.
Xu Wei, a poet and painter in the Ming Dynasty, wrote 37 poems about kites. One of them wrote: "Wicker thread and cotton are enough to find and fly kites, and how much power is dissipated by the spring breeze, taking children to the sky." The period of Ganjia in Qing Dynasty was the heyday of kite development in China.
Every time I go to Tomb-Sweeping Day, people take advantage of the spring to return to the earth and when thousands of trees revive, they go to the suburbs to play and fly kites with great interest. This is especially true in Gu Wei County, which is famous for its handicraft industry.
In the eighteenth year of Qianlong, after Zheng Banqiao, the magistrate of Wei County, was dismissed from office, he wrote the poem "Flying a kite at leisure" in his poem. During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, Guo Lin, an epigraph writer and poet in Wei County, wrote: "After 104 days of cold food, I traveled to the Bailang River.
The son of a kite can swing better than the new Chun Yan, which vividly describes the scene of boys and girls flying kites and swinging on the beach of Bailang River in the Qingming period when spring is blooming in Wei County. Weifang kites flourished in the 1930s, and the so-called "kite family" mainly lived in that period.
At that time, there were many folk kite competitions, and there were three large ones sponsored by the government. 1in the spring of 933, the county government decided to hold a kite competition every two years according to the requirements of the people, and every competition was held in Tomb-Sweeping Day.
The first competition was held in the county government hall, and 80 kites from the county participated. Show the kite first, and then fly it.
On that day, the exhibition was located in the front hall of the county government, and the people watching it were crowded with the streets and alleys in the city, which made a sensation. In the flying competition, 70 or 80 kites were launched at the same time with the whistle. Soon, many kites were bitten together, some flew away and some were slowly lost. The scene is both spectacular and lively.
Among them, the most striking ones are the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea written on the blackboard by Tang Jia and the Four Seasons Flower God written by Yang Jiabu. Since then, two more competitions have been held in 1935 and 1937.
In the 1937 competition, Hu He's leading centipede, as well as Guo Defu's production and Mou Dan's painting, were outstanding. Since then, the Japanese invaders invaded China, the territory fell, the people were in dire straits, and kites disappeared.
1949, People's Republic of China (PRC) was founded and people lived and worked in peace and contentment. 65438-0956 National Arts and Crafts Exhibition held in Beijing and Weifang Kite Exhibition.
1958 At the Guangzhou Spring Fair, 200 folding eagle kites in Weifang were snapped up by foreign businessmen. Since then, Weifang kites have traveled all over the world.
1960, Hu's "leading centipede" rose in the Mexican air, and thousands of people competed for this China kite.
2. Knowledge about kites
Kite Introduction Kites were invented in China. According to legend, Mo Zhai made wooden birds out of wood, which took three years to develop successfully. This is the earliest origin of human kites. Later, his student Lu Ban used bamboo to improve the materials of kites in Mo Zhai, and even evolved into today's multi-line kites.
Kites originated in the Spring and Autumn Period and have a history of more than 2,000 years. According to legend, "Mozi is a wooden kite, which was made in three years and lost in one day."
In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, kites began to be a tool for transmitting information. Since the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
With the development of paper industry, people began to paste kites with paper. Flying kites became a popular outdoor activity in the Song Dynasty.
Song people's meticulous "Old Wulin Events" wrote: "During the Qingming Festival, people fly kites in the suburbs and return at sunset." "Kite" means kite.
Zhang Zeduan's The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival in the Northern Song Dynasty and Su Hanchen's The Hundred Zi Map in the Song Dynasty have vivid scenes of giving kites. Nowadays, flying kites in China plays an important role in foreign cultural exchanges, strengthening friendship with people all over the world, and developing economy and tourism.
The history of kites began to spread all over the world after Italian Kyle Poirot returned to Europe from China in the13rd century. According to ancient records: "In the Five Dynasties, Li Zheng made a paper kite in the palace to attract kites to ride the wind as a play, and then used bamboo as the flute head to make the wind enter the bamboo, making it sound like A Zheng, hence the name kite."
So those who can't make a sound are called "paper kites", and those who can make a sound are called "kites". Ancient kites have been used as military reconnaissance tools, ranging, crossing dangers and carrying people.
Southern and Northern Dynasties-Kites were once used as a communication tool for asking for help. In Liang Wudi, Hou Jing surrounded Taicheng. Bamboo slips tasted like paper kites, but they flew out in a hurry. As a result, he was shot and defeated, Taicheng fell, and Liang Wudi starved to death, leaving the story of this kite calling for help.
Levin in the Northern Qi Dynasty tied people's wings and made them jump off the tower and die, which was called "Sheng". During the Han Dynasty-the struggle between Chu and Han, Han Xin once had a big kite made, fitted with bamboo whistle bowstring, and floated out of Chu camp at night to make it make strange noises, so as to break the morale of Chu army.
Tang Dynasty-Kites used for military purposes were gradually transformed into entertainment purposes, and kites were flown in the palace. Song Dynasty-Kites were used as exercise functions. When people are in Tomb-Sweeping Day, they will fly kites high and far, then cut the strings and let them take away the bad luck accumulated over the past year. Ming Dynasty-Explosives were carried by kites, which detonated the fuse on kites according to the principle of "kite collision", thus killing the enemy.
Qingganlong-that is, there are two pieces of paper to control the detailed size and description of the kite. During the Japanese occupation era, flying kites was forbidden for military reasons, because bright kites could send information to the enemy and provide targets for aircraft bombing.
In World War II, the US military used stunt kites as moving targets for shooting training. 1980, kites began to be widely loved, except for the initial double line, which evolved into three-line and four-line technical kites or stunt kites.
The origin of kites The true origin of kites is now impossible to verify. Some folklorists believe that the ancients invented kites mainly to miss the sophisticated relatives and friends, so when the death gate of Tomb-Sweeping Day was briefly opened, they pinned their sympathy on kites and gave them to the dead relatives and friends.
The earliest kites were not toys, but were used for military and communication. In the late Tang Dynasty, it was called "kite" because someone added strings to the kite, which sounded like a guzheng when the wind blew.
In BC 1000, people in China first flew kites. It is said that people in China could fly kites long before they believed in history.
According to legend, in the 4th century BC, Lu Ban, a famous craftsman in China, made a kite and took off for three days without falling. There is also a story in which a general surrounded the palace and used a kite to measure the distance between the palace wall and his own army.
Kites can be used to send bricks to and from home, or to tie hooks to the tail of kites for fishing. In 1600, oriental kites (diamonds) were introduced to Europe by the Dutch.
/kloc-In the 9th century, the British inventor Clay was inspired by kites and invented the glider. Texas actor Cody "Captain" once used a kite to drag a folding boat across the English Channel. 190 1 year, I made persistent efforts to fly kites with double boxes, which aroused great interest from the British War Department.
Soon, the plane replaced the military kite, and Cody, the "captain", died in an air crash while flying his new biplane on 19 13. 1970, the American space program designed various "flying wings" to make kites become toys for adults again. For example, the Rogge Lele folding flying wing was originally designed for the safe landing in the Mercury spacecraft cabin, and was later replaced by a parachute; But this folding wing was originally the wing of today's hang glider.
Flying a kite provides the principle and inspiration for the plane to fly into the sky. Kites were called "kites" in ancient times and "kites" in the north.
Most people think that kites originated in China and then spread all over the world. This is a traditional folk handicraft. In fact, the earliest kites in China were made of wood.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Eastern Zhou philosopher Mo Zhai (478-392 BC) "used a wooden kite to fly into the sky in three years." .
Mozi was in Lushan (now Weifang, Shandong). "Cypress is a kite. It took three years to make it, but it was lost in one day." This means that Mozi finally made a wooden bird out of a board after three years of research and trial production, but it broke down after only one day's flight.
This "wooden kite" made by Mozi is the earliest kite in China and the earliest kite in the world. (about 300 BC), 2400 years ago.
It was not until Cai Lun invented papermaking in the Eastern Han Dynasty that kites were made of paper, which was called "paper kites". Therefore, it can be inferred that China kites have a history of more than 2,000 years.
Mozi passed on his kite-making career to his students' open class (also called Luban), which said that Luban made kites out of bamboo according to Mo Zhai's ideal and design. Lu Ban split the bamboo, cut it into smooth slices, roasted it with fire, made it look like a magpie, and flew in the air for three days.
The newspaper said, "The bus team made wooden kites to watch Song Cheng." . At first, kites were usually used as military tools, as a means of triangulation signals, sky wind direction measurement and communication.
Just like in the Spring and Autumn Period, Lu Ban made a wooden kite to see Song Cheng. In BC 190, Chu and Han contended, and Han and Han Xin attacked Weiyang Palace to measure the distance under the tunnel with kites.
In the Battle of Gaixia, Xiang Yu's army was besieged by Liu Bang's army. Han Xin sent someone to make a kite out of cowhide, put a bamboo flute on it, and made a direction against the wind.
3. What are some interesting tips about kites?
Classification and characteristics of various types
Kites originated in China. Kites are also called paper kites and wind kites. The Tale of the Tang Dynasty records that Han Xin was the inventor of kites in the early Han Dynasty.
Kites are divided into: soft wing, hard wing, plate, three-dimensional, linear and double-thread.
The shape of a kite: It mainly imitates natural creatures, such as birds, insects, animals and geometric shapes. And the design is mainly based on personal preferences, including promoting beautiful people, animals, butterflies, birds and so on.
Kites are made of plastic besides silk and paper, with bamboo sticks, wood and glue sticks as bone poles. Recently, someone designed a boneless kite, whose structure is to introduce air into a silk wind pit. Today, the kite forms an air pillow, floats gently, and then rides in the wind. China, Malaya, the Philippines and Japan also have big kites.
Safety knowledge and precautions
1) Don't throw it where there are high-voltage towers and poles. Because the skeleton of stunt kite is carbon fiber micro-pole, it is easy to conduct electricity and will be dangerous;
2) Pay attention to the weather changes. In case of thunderstorm, typhoon and lightning strike, stop casting immediately and stay away from the open space;
3) Choose kites that are suitable for flying and can match the wind speed, and don't ignore the power of strong wind speed;
4) The caster should choose open places, such as parks and beaches, and avoid flying windows (remarks), obstacles or other people who are casting spells;
5) Pay attention to whether there are others staying under the kite flight path and whether the site is flat. It is best not to let kites fly over roads or lakes;
6) Children should fly kites with adults, and kites that are not usually put away should be put away. Don't let the children take them out alone. Pay attention to water in rural areas and cars in towns.
7) When flying at high speed, the stunt kite should not fly too low or frighten others, thus ignoring the danger of strong impact and main control line in high speed flight.

A brief history of kites
It is known all over the world that kites originated in China.
1, Eastern Zhou Chunqiu: According to legend, Mozi made a "wooden bird" out of wood, which took three years to develop and was the earliest origin of kites; Later, Luban improved the material of Mozi's "wooden bird" and used bamboo to evolve into today's multi-line kite.
2. Eastern Han Dynasty: After Cai Lun improved papermaking, he made kites out of paper, which was called "paper kites".

You can choose one.
There are three legends about the origin of kites. First, the hat and the leaves say; Second, sailing boats and tents; Third, said the bird.
However, the conclusion that kites originated in China is generally recognized by the kite industry in the world. Both the hat and the leaves say that the hat is an ancient rain-proof and heatstroke-proof appliance, which was used when people changed from fishing and hunting to farming, especially in tropical and subtropical areas. At that time, the hats were simple to make, and the tethers were all made from local materials, using soft leather fibers.
It is said that a farmer was plowing the field when a strong wind suddenly rolled up his hat. The farmer ran after him and grabbed the tether. It happened that the tether was very long and the hat flew in the air like a kite.
The farmer thought it was very interesting. He often put hats on the villagers in the future, and later he turned into flying kites. It is said that these leaves come from the south of China.
It is said that ancient people worshipped the phenomenon of leaves flying all over the sky, so they tied the leaves with hemp and other things to play, which gradually evolved into a kite-flying activity. Gaoshan nationality in Taiwan Province province of China and Li nationality in Hainan island made kites from leaves of bread trees earlier.
Sailing boats and tents say that people have used wooden boats for a long time, and they have been used in production as early as 2000 BC. Then the sailboat.

As a result, Xiang Yu broke up without a fight.
6. The scientific knowledge of flying kites is about grade 2.
As we all know, there are two necessary conditions for flying kites: (1) kites can only be released in windy weather; (2) The kite has to be pulled by the lifting wire, and the "broken kite" will inevitably fall after floating away for a short period. Generation of lift: When a kite is exposed to the wind in the air, the air will be divided into upper and lower layers. The air passing through the lower layer of the kite is blocked by the kite surface, so the air flow decreases and the air pressure increases; The upper air circulation is comfortable, the flow velocity is enhanced and the air pressure is reduced; This pressure difference creates a rising force, which is why kites can rise. As can be seen from the above, there are two elements of uplift: (1) wind; (2) traction; This explains the question raised at the beginning. Under the action of wind, traction and the rising force, the kite basically achieves the balance of force in the air. Force on the kite in the air: the direction of wind is basically horizontal, and the angle and lift of the kite can be easily controlled by lifting the line. After several exercises, kite-flying people will soon master the skills of controlling kites: when flying kites, they usually pull and release them. When drawing, it is a draw. When flying, the traction of the balanced kite becomes smaller. Under the combined action of wind and lift, the kite will fly very high, but it must be pulled up again soon to keep the kite's angle stable again. When the wind is strong, you can put more lines, and when the wind is weak, you can put some lines.
