Ratchet
Mechanism (2)
In this example, two pawls are used allowing the yellow wheel to
turn almost continually. In the above example the yellow wheel turns
two teeth for every turn of the red wheel. By reducing the diameter
of the red wheel it is possible to make the yellow wheel turn only
one tooth per turn, each pawl turning the wheel half a tooth.
