Besingamtshela umphathi wethu ukuthi akathathe isonto lonke emsebenzini ngoba sasonta intamo sixoxa ngomsebenzi nozakwethu ngoba izihlalo zethu beziningi kakhulu.Kodwa ngenxa kaThomas Jefferson, umongameli wesithathu wase-United States, lalingekho ithuba elinjalo.
Ngo-1775, uJefferson wabeka iso lakhe esihlalweni se-Windsor ekhaya, wabheka isihlalo se-Windsor futhi waba nombono:
Lesi yisihlalo sikaJefferson's Modified Windsor.Uma uthi nhlá, akukho okuningi okushintshile.Empeleni lesi sihlalo sinobuso bezihlalo ezimbili, hlanganisa nensimbi emaphakathi, ipulley ifakwa emseleni phakathi kobuso obukhona futhi, yabona umphumela wokuthi ingxenye engezansi igxilile, ingxenye engenhla iyazungeza.Umanduleli wesihlalo esijikayo wazalwa, futhi abantu babengasakhathazeki ngokusonteka izintamo zabo.
Kodwa kukude kakhulu nesihlalo esijikayo -- noma, ngokufanelekile, isihlalo sehhovisi -- lapho sichitha khona amahora ayisishiyagalombili ngosuku ndawonye.Okungenani ukhiye owodwa awukho -- isondo.
Ubani owaqhamuka nombono wokunamathisela amasondo emilenzeni yesihlalo?Ngakho-ke kufanele sishelele sizungeze sizama ukukhiqiza kakhulu futhi singayeki?
Esinye isigqila somsebenzi esaziwayo emhlabeni wonke, ubaba wokuziphendukela kwemvelo, uCharles Robert Darwin.
Uguquko lwezimboni lwaletha ukuthuthukiswa okunamandla komnotho omusha, futhi amabhizinisi andisa indawo yawo kanye nebhizinisi ngokuthembela ezitimeleni ezikahle.Abaphathi babe sebecabanga: Ingabe bekungeke kube ukukhiqiza okwengeziwe ukusebenzisa isikhathi sokuhamba ukuze uhlale phansi futhi uqedele amanye amaphepha?
Ngakho uThomas Warren wangena ebhizinisini.Inkampani yakhe, i-American Chair Company, ikhiqize isihlalo sesitimela esihlanganise iziphethu kumakhushini ezihlalo ukuze isitimela sinyakaze.Izisebenzi kufanele zisebenze ezitimeleni, nazo.
Ngalesi sisekelo, uThomas Warren wasungula isihlalo sangempela sehhovisi sangempela somlando.Cishe inazo zonke izici ezibalulekile zesihlalo sethu sehhovisi lesimanje -- siyajika, siyashelela, futhi sinesihlalo esithambile.
Umbono wokuthi ukuhlala ngokunethezeka kuholela ebuvilaleni wawusemfashinini ngeminyaka yawo-1920.
Indoda egama layo linguWilliam Ferris yaqhubekela phambili yalungisa izinto.Waklama izihlalo ze-DO/Engeziwe.Bheka isihloko esikhulu kule poster.Umuntu onjani ohlezi kulesi sihlalo?Izisebenzi zasehhovisi "ezintsha, ezijabule, ezisebenzayo nezikhiqizayo".
Ngokusobala kuyindawo yobuhlungu bemakethe yokungasebenzi kahle kanye nezifo zomsebenzi.
Imibono yezobuchwepheshe iyashintsha.Ucwaningo lobudlelwano obunobunye phakathi komuntu nomshini lwafinyelela umvuthwandaba phakathi neMpi Yezwe II njengoba imboni yayikhula ngokubaluleka.Ngemva kweMpi Yezwe II, "i-ergonomics" yayingaselona igama elingenalutho, kodwa igama elisemthethweni kuyo yonke imikhakha.
Ngakho-ke, ngo-1973, kwazalwa isihlalo sehhovisi.
Indawo yokukhanya yalesi sihlalo incike kulokhu: i-headrest ehlezi, indawo yokuhlala ephakeme kanye ne-pulley, imodeli emfushane futhi eqinile, umbala ogqamile.Abaqambi baphinde basebenzise isitayela esigqamile kumadeski, kumshini wokubhala nokunye okuningi kwezimpahla zasehhovisi, benethemba lokuguqula ihhovisi libe ipharadesi, ukugeza okubuthuntu.
Isihlalo sehhovisiiye yaba nezinguquko eziningi ngokusekelwe ekujikelezeni, ekulungisweni kwe-pulley nokuphakama kwalezi zakhiwo eziyisisekelo kusukela ngaleso sikhathi, futhi isibe ngusihlalo wethu wehhovisi lamanje.
