Brennabor Typ A 1908
Brennabor-Werke AG (previously Brennabor-Werke Gebr. Reichstein) was a German manufacturer of infant buggies, bicycles, motorcycles and, for two decades, of powered motor vehicles. It was based in Brandenburg an der Havel and operated between 1871 and 1945. History The company was set up in 1871 by three brothers named Adolf, Carl and Hermann Reichstein. The brothers had already been producing basket-work child buggies and children's two-wheelers in 1870, and in 1881 had moved into the booming mainstream bicycle business. From 1892 the bicycles were branded with the Brennabor name. By the 1930s the company had grown to become Europe's largest produced of infant buggies and was also a leading bicycle producer. Volume production of motor bikes began in 1901, and from 1903 the company was producing, at this stage only to special order, three- and four-wheeled powered vehicles. 1908 saw the beginning of series production of cars, and this was also the year that the comp ...

Emblem Brennabor
An emblem is an abstract or representational pictorial image that represents a concept, like a moral truth, or an allegory, or a person, like a king or saint. Emblems vs. symbols Although the words ''emblem'' and ''symbol'' are often used interchangeably, an emblem is a pattern that is used to represent an idea or an individual. An emblem develops in concrete, visual terms some abstraction: a deity, a tribe or nation, or a virtue or vice. An emblem may be worn or otherwise used as an identifying badge or patch. For example, in America, police officers' badges refer to their personal metal emblem whereas their woven emblems on uniforms identify members of a particular unit. A real or metal cockle shell, the emblem of St. James the Apostle, sewn onto the hat or clothes, identified a medieval pilgrim to his shrine at Santiago de Compostela. In the Middle Ages, many saints were given emblems, which served to identify them in paintings and other images: St. Catherine ...

Soviet Occupation Zone
The Soviet Occupation Zone ( or german: Ostzone, label=none, "East Zone"; , ''Sovetskaya okkupatsionnaya zona Germanii'', "Soviet Occupation Zone of Germany") was an area of Germany in Central Europe that was occupied by the Soviet Union as a communist area, established as a result of the Potsdam Agreement on 1 August 1945. On 7 October 1949 the German Democratic Republic (GDR), commonly referred to in English as East Germany, was established in the Soviet Occupation Zone. The SBZ was one of the four Allied occupation zones of Germany created at the end of World War II with the Allied victory. According to the Potsdam Agreement, the Soviet Military Administration in Germany (German initials: SMAD) was assigned responsibility for the middle portion of Germany. Eastern Germany beyond the Oder-Neisse line, equal in territory to the SBZ, was to be annexed by Poland and its population expelled, pending a final peace conference with Germany. By the time forces of the United St ...

Straight-eight Engine
The straight-eight engine (also referred to as an inline-eight engine; abbreviated I8 or L8) is a piston engine with eight cylinders arranged in a straight line along the crankshaft. The number of cylinders and perfect primary and secondary engine balance resulted in smooth running, however there are several downsides relating to the significant length of the engine. Straight-eight engines were popular in luxury cars and racing cars in the 1920s to 1940s. During the 1950s, straight-eight engines were largely replaced by the more compact V8 engine design. Design A straight-eight can achieve perfect primary balance and secondary balance if an appropriate firing order is used. Like most other engines, torsional vibration of the crankshaft requires that a harmonic damper is installed on the crankshaft. at the accessory end of the crankshaft. As per other engines with 8 cylinders, the power delivery is smoother than engines with fewer cylinders. In the early 20th century, these sm ...

Brennabor Juwel 8
The Brennabor Juwel 8 is an eight-cylinder automobile introduced the Brennabor company in 1930 to complement their then recently introduced Juwel 6 model. The Juwel 8 was powered by a newly developed 8-cylinder side-valve engine of 3.4 litres, mounted ahead of the driver and delivering 60 hp at 3,200 rpm. Power was delivered to the rear wheels through a single plate dry clutch and a three-speed gear box controlled using a centrally positioned floor-mounted gear stick. The car sat on a U-profile pressed steel chassis with rigid axles and semi-elliptical leaf springing. It was offered as a four-door four-seater sedan/saloon or a four-door “Pullman” sedan/saloon with six seats. The mechanically linked foot brake operated directly on all four wheels, while the handbrake operated on the rear wheels. The last Juwel 8 appears to have been produced in 1932, by when approximately 100 had been built. Technical data Sources • Oswald, Werner: Deutsche Autos 1920–1945, ...

Brennabor Typ N
In 1929 the Brennabor Ideal Typ N was introduced by the Brennabor company, which for much of that decade had been Germany's leading auto maker. The car replaced the Brennabor Typ Z The Brennabor Typ Z, launched in 1928, was a car introduced by the Brennabor company, replacing the Brennabor Typ R, as the company’s contender in the medium-sized car sector, had been a best seller on the German market during the modest retur ... which had been in production for only a year. The new model had its four-cylinder engine increased in size to 1.64 litres. In this application a maximum power output of 30 hp at 3,200 rpm was claimed. In 1931 the introduction of the Brennabor Ideal Extra Typ N marked a further upgrade of what was now (following the introduction in that year of the smaller Brennabor Typ C 4/20) the middle model in the company's three model range. The "Extra" retained the 1.64-litre engine, but features a slightly longer and wider body. The choice of bodies was a ...

Brennabor Typ Z
The Brennabor Typ Z, launched in 1928, was a car introduced by the Brennabor company, replacing the Brennabor Typ R, as the company’s contender in the medium-sized car sector, had been a best seller on the German market during the modest return to economic growth that characterized the middle years of the decade after the reparations issue had, to an extent, been resolved. The Typ Z was itself replaced after just a year by Brennabor Ideal Typ N which would represent a more comprehensive upgrade The Typ Z retained the same engine capacity and claimed power output of its predecessor, but was slightly shorter and lower (though wider and no lighter). The rear axle was now provided with underslung half leaf springs, a system which would later be adopted by the competing auto-maker Horch Horch () was a car brand manufacturer, founded in Germany by August Horch & Cie at the beginning of the 20th century.

Inline-six Engine
The straight-six engine (also referred to as an inline-six engine; abbreviated I6 or L6) is a piston engine with six cylinders arranged in a straight line along the crankshaft. A straight-six engine has perfect primary and secondary engine balance, resulting in fewer vibrations than other designs of six or less cylinders. Until the mid-20th century, the straight-six layout was the most common design for engines with six cylinders. However, V6 engines became more common from the 1960s and by the 2000s most straight-six engines had been replaced by V6 engines. An exception to this trend is BMW which has produced automotive straight-six engines from 1933 to the present day. Characteristics In terms of packaging, straight-six engines are almost always narrower than a V6 engine or V8 engine, but longer than straight-four engines, V6s, and most V8s. Straight-six engines are typically produced in displacements ranging from , however engines ranging in size from the Benelli 750 Se ...
