Over the years, the evolution of the clip is rich and diverse, not only reflected in the function and application field of the clip, but also reflected in its material, design and manufacturing technology.
Origin and Initial Development
The history of clips can be traced back to ancient times, when clips were mainly used for basic functions such as stabilization, picking, hanging and storing.
In the Stone Age, the role of the clip could be achieved through simple tools such as stones and wood, such as using stones to suppress food to prevent being dragged away by wild animals.
Subsequently, with the development of human society, the clip gradually evolved into more complex tools, such as binding animal skins, weapons and so on to resist natural disasters and beast invasion.
The ancient transformation to the modern transformation
In ancient times, the use of clamps was closely linked to the development of the four great inventions (papermaking, printing, gunpowder, and the compass), especially in the process of making gunpowder, which was used to stabilize the utensils used to make gunpowder.
In modern times, the role of clips began to differentiate, and different classes had different needs and ways of applying clips. The aristocracy used the clip as an ornament, such as hairpins, clothing clips, etc., while the common people used it more as a tool, such as food clips, item clips, etc.
The development of modern clips
In modern times, the types of clips are becoming more and more detailed, and special clips for different application scenarios appear, such as ticket holders for bills, clothes hangers for families, and piano clips for Musical Instruments.
At the same time, the design of the clip also pays more and more attention to humanization and practicality. For example, the hollow design of the long tail clip not only retains the advantages of the original long tail clip, but also is more light and easy to carry.
With the development of science and technology, the manufacturing technology of the clip has also been improved, such as the application of high precision and high efficiency fixture manufacturing technology, which makes the manufacturing accuracy and efficiency of the clip greatly improved.
Future development trend
With the improvement of people’s requirements for the quality of life, the design of the clip will pay more attention to individuation, environmental protection and intelligence.
sum up
The evolution of the clip reflects the development course of human society from simple to complex, from extensive to fine. With the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous improvement of people’s living needs, the future development of the clip will be more diversified and intelligent.
