Source text - English REFRIGERATION ON WHEELS: THE EVOLUTION
First developed in the late 19th century, commercial mechanical refrigeration gradually found its way into butcher shops, breweries and meat packing companies. It wasn’t until 1938 that refrigeration found itself on the roadways.
Trucking companies realized the potential for hauling perishable commodities. Without a doubt, the market was ready for transport refrigeration. The U.S. Thermo Control Company, known today as Thermo King Corporation, was founded in response to this basic need.
THE FIRST UNIT (1938)
In the summer of 1938, Harry Werner came off the golf course only to get word that he had just lost another load of meat. Joining Werner on the golf course was Joseph A. Numero, a manufacturer of sound systems for movies theaters. Numero responded on an impulse by saying, “We can build a unit for you in 30 days”. This remark propelled Numero into becoming the founder and first president of Thermo King Corporation.
Numero turned to his business associate, Fred Jones, a self-taught mechanical genius who was to become Thermo King’s vice president of engineering. Jones went to work building the initial model from an improvised assortment of components. The result was a heavy, clumsy unit that was mounted underneath the trailer. It was operable, however, and marked the invention of Thermo King’s Model A unit. A year or so later, an improved Model B under-mount unit was developed, soon followed by the Model C.
Translation - Spanish LA REFRIGERACIÓN EN RUEDAS: LA EVOLUCIÓN
Desarrollada por primera vez a finales del siglo 19, la refrigeración mecánica comercial gradualmente se introdujo en carnicerías, cervecerías y empresas empacadoras de carne. No fue hasta 1930 que la refrigeración se perfiló a las carreteras.
Las empresas de transporte por carretera se dieron cuenta del potencial de transportar mercadería perecedera. Sin duda el mercado estaba listo para la refrigeración en el transporte. La U.S. Thermo Control Company, conocida hoy en día como Thermo King Corporation, se fundó en respuesta a esta necesidad básica.
LA PRIMERA UNIDAD (1938)
En el verano de 1938, Harry Werner salió del campo de golf solamente para enterarse que acababa de perder otra carga de carne. Junto con Werner en el campo de golf estaba Joseph A. Numero, un fabricante de sistemas de sonido para cines. Numero respondió por impulso, diciendo, “nosotros podemos construir una unidad para usted en 30 días”. Este comentario propulsó a Numero a convertirse en el fundador y primer presidente de Thermo King Corporation.
Numero se abocó a su socio de negocios, Fred Jones, un genio mecánico autodidacta quien se convertiría en el vicepresidente de ingeniería en Thermo King. Jones empezó a construir el modelo inicial con una variedad improvisada de componentes. El resultado fue una unidad pesada y tosca que era montada debajo del tráiler. Sin embargo, era operable, y marcó la invención de la unidad Modelo A de Thermo King. Aproximadamente un año después, una unidad Modelo B mejorada (siempre colocada debajo) fue desarrollada, seguida rápidamente por la Modelo C.

Bio
Welcome to my profile!
Let me be your ally!
I've been a translator for a little over 17 years, although I decided to become a full-time freelance translator almost two years ago.
Translating is my passion and I want it to become my only job!
After many years working in other fields, mainly administrative ones, I decided that I no longer wanted to work on jobs just because they were safe, so I finally made the dive to quitting and doing something for myself.
I put this passion for languages in all my projects. Being able to translate English and Spanish every day is the best feeling in the world, and I hope you become part of this world!
