RATCHET & PAWL MECHANISM

INTRODUCTION ·       This type of mechanism is used in producing intermittent rotary motion from an oscillating or reciprocating motion member. ·       The ratchet and pawl mechanism consists of a ratchet wheel and a pawl, as shown in figure. ·       The ratchet consists of a round gear or linear rack with teeth. ·       A pawl is a spring loaded member that engages the teeth of the ratchet the teeth of ratchet is uniform.  Theory of operation A ratchet consists of a round  gear   or linear  rack  with teeth. A pawl is a  spring-loaded member that engages the teeth of the ratchet. The teeth are uniform, with each tooth having a moderate slope on one edge and a much steeper slope on the other edge. When the teeth are moving in the unrestricted (i.e., forward) direction , the pawl easily slides up and over the gently sloped edges...
