De William Cubitt Roda O Here’s Original Version

Front Here’s how the original version, invented in 1818 by English engineer Sir William Cubitt, worked. Prisoners stepped on 24 spokes of a large paddle wheel. As the wheel turned, the prisoner was forced to keep stepping up or risk falling off, similar to modern stepper machines.
Back Aqui está como a versão original, inventada em 1818 pelo engenheiro inglês William Cubitt, funcionava. Os prisioneiros pisavam sobre 24 raios de um extensa roda de pás. Conforme a roda girava, o prisioneiro era forçado a continuar pisando ou corria o risco de cair de cima, parecido com as máquinas de pisar modernas.
