Where is ratchet and pawl used?

Ratchet and pawl mechanisms are commonly used in various applications where controlled motion is required, such as in hand tools like sockets and wrenches, allowing for the tightening and loosening of bolts without needing to reposition the tool. They are also found in mechanisms like winches, allowing for the safe and efficient lifting or lowering of heavy loads. Additionally, ratchet and pawl systems are used in clocks and other timing devices to regulate movement.

What is ratchet and pawl mechanisn?

A pawl and ratchet is used for example in a clock spring winding barrel. A toothed wheel with barbed triangular teeth are cut into the circumference of a metal disc attached to the axle of the spring barrel. This is the ratchet. The pawl is a pivoting teardrop shaped piece of metal mounted on the clock plate adjacent to ratchet. The pawl drops into the gap between the teeth of the ratchet as the clock key turns the spring barrel. The pawl clicks over the teeth until the key turning pressure is removed. The pawl then drops into the last notch in the toothed wheel and stops the spring unwinding.
