⏹ Colt, Samuel Colt,

American inventor (1814 - 1862)
Colt invented a number of mechanical parts and tools, most notably the revolver that bears his name: The Colt, which contains a mill with six slots to hold six bullets.

⏹ Coles, Alfred Hutchinson
Cowls, Alfred Hutchinson

American engineer and metallurgist (1859-1929)
Coles studied at the University of Ohio and Cornell in America. He and his brother Eugene were pioneers in the electrofusion of metals.
Coles headed the aluminum and electrofusion company that he established with his brother Eugene.

⏹ Columbe, Charles de Augustin
Coulomb, Charles Augustin de

French physicist (1736 - 1806)
Colomb served as a war engineer in the Indies
West, and resigned from his job before the French Revolution. Coulomb became famous as a worker in electricity and magnetism, and he invented the Torsion balance independently of Michell, J.
(1793-1724) He is the author of Coulomb's law, which links the force between two charged bodies and the distance between them.
The coulomb is called the unit of charge or the unit of the quantity of electricity carried in a current of one ampere for a second.

⏹ Congreve, Sir William, Baronet
Congreve, Sir William, Bart

English inventor (1772 - 1828)
He learned in Cambridge and studied law, then turned to inventions and devoted himself to them • He invented a war missile and another for hunting whales.

Cugnot. Nicholas Joseph

French engineer (1725 - 1804)
Kenio excelled in the field of making mechanical machines and vehicles, he developed the pump «Leopold Jacob (1674-1727) and also designed a three-wheeled cart driven by steam power. It is believed in Europe that it is the first producer of a car (automobile). It reached a speed of about four kilometers per hour.
It is noteworthy that Kinyu was one of the first experimental engineers in the field of mechanical transport and communications.
