Speaking of sandstorms, families with conditions, quickly open the air purifier, remove bacteria, remove smog, remove dust or something, anyway, the home is very comfortable to breathe, then there was definitely no such good thing in ancient times, and the ancients certainly could not enjoy such treatment.
In fact, it is not necessarily, because the ancient people were very smart, the concept of air purification tells you that it is really not out of thin air, as early as the Han Dynasty, the ancients had a method, which can make the indoor environment clean and particularly environmentally friendly. The air purifier of the Western Han Dynasty came, in 1968, mancheng County, Hebei Province, our archaeologists really found a priceless treasure excavated from the tomb of Liu Bei's old ancestor, Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan Jing, who had shared a bed with his wife Dou Xuan, which was the Western Han Dynasty Changxin Palace lamp that had been taught in history textbooks, the palace lamp body was gilded throughout, and the hands of a palace woman sat upright, and at that time, the stool had not yet been invented, and these knees landed on the ground, the calves were on the ground, and the hips sat on the calves and heels. This palace lady has a quiet and elegant appearance, the overall height is 48 centimeters, weighing 15.85 kilograms, very solid and exquisite. But this palace lamp is not only lighting so simple, it is more than two thousand years ago our ancient environmental protection masterpiece, can also be called the ancestor of modern all kinds of empty products, how to talk about ah. Ancient lighting is more than animal oil or vegetable oil as fuel, you are like your kitchen if you do not open a range hood, the smoke is very large, very choking, air pollution is not to mention, the wall will also leave black oil stains and putty. The lamp lit by the ancients is the same, the ash charcoal that turns into ashes between combustion will float and swim with the rising hot air flow, and the indoor smoke will certainly be very large, the polluted air environment is not to say, and people are not comfortable staying.
The invention of the Changxin Palace lamp perfectly integrates practicality and bionic form, and scientifically and reasonably plays some functions of the purifier. The palace maid's left hand is not dragging the lamp holder, and the right hand on the right arm is carrying the lampshade. The wide sleeve of the palace maid naturally hangs down, cleverly forming the top of the lamp, making the cuff into a lampshade, so that it can be easily disassembled and cleaned, but also does not destroy the integrity, the structure is simple, the effect is very good, and the arm part is actually to absorb the black smoke condensed into the black ash with the red tube, that is, the light black soot charcoal particles fly up, through the right arm of the palace girl, the red tube is formed, into the body cavity equipped with water, the use of water to filter the fumes, so that you can maintain the indoor environment and air quality very well, The appearance of this lampshade is not to look concise, but also another mystery, the lampshade actually has two curved plates inside and outside, which can adjust the illumination direction and lighting brightness of the lamp at will. The ancient version of the adjustable LED is really too strong. In addition to air purifiers, I see that many families also use water purifiers, water is the source of life, in fact, water purification is not the patent of modern people, ancient times have created a lot of water purification operations, and today's water purifiers have the same magic.
For example, in order to drink healthy and fresh good water, the ancients will take local materials, the use of stalactites, wood hibiscus, elm bark, alum and other items to purify water quality, can be a good adsorption of some impurities suspended in the water, the formation of precipitation, filtering after the water to clarify, this is a very good green water purifier. Among home appliances, we use washing machines the most frequently, right?
In ancient times, washing clothes, the ancients called it pounding clothes, then washing clothes is washing clothes, why is it called pounding clothes? It turned out that the cultivation of cotton before the Song and Yuan dynasties was not popular in the mainland. Silk is very expensive, can only be worn by noble lords, most of the people wear clothes made of kudzu, kudzu this fabric fiber is too hard, wearing is not soft, that needs to be placed on the chopping board to take the pestle before wearing, and then knock it is snapped to make it soft.
Usually, it's like the new clothes we buy now, first put them in the washing machine and rinse them before putting them on. In the Tang Dynasty, it was customary to pound clothes at night, which led to the famous sentence of Li Bai Chang'an a month and ten thousand households pounding clothes.
What if there was no modern washing powder in ancient times? Could the ancients wash their clothes? Because the ancients often used grass and wood ash, this grass and wood ash is still alkaline, and the skill sterilization and decontamination are very strong. Let's talk about the indispensable refrigerators and electric fans at home, don't think that the ancients did not use these, summer and winter will suffer from old sins, in fact, there are refrigerators in ancient times, that is, relatively primitive, do not use Freon, and it is in the spring and autumn. According to records, there is a kind of utensils made of ceramics or bronze, and called "ice book", for food health care, the ancients and we modern people feel very important, the main body of this utensil is in the shape of a bucket. The four limbs and feet of the lower an are equipped with handles, which are characteristic of this artifact, the four walls are full of hollow patterns, and there are four symmetrical small square holes at the bottom of the vessel, which are estimated to facilitate the melting of ice water flowing down from the hollows of the air wall and the holes at the bottom of the vessel. Simply put, the principle is to put ice cubes in a box made of bronze, which can not only preserve food, but also emit cold air and make the room cool. Can be used as a fan in summer. Hearing this, there are a few friends may wonder, blow it, you have no electricity in ancient times, where there will be ice cubes in the summer, in fact, it is not difficult, the ancients will chisel ice when it is cold in winter, and then dig a cellar to store it, and then use it in the summer. By the time of the Tang Dynasty, the ancients also found that saltpeter was dissolved in water, so that the water would freeze.
This makes it possible to eat ice in the heat, and the people can afford to consume it. In the winter, although the ancients said that there was no heating, no air conditioning, and there were many ancient heating equipment, such as fire walls, fireplaces and stoves, etc., it was not worse than air conditioning, and it did not cost electricity.
