RATCHET MECHANISM OF A PRECISION REVOLUTION COUNTER

Click to enlargeClick to enlarge Description

When spindle 1 is connected to the shaft whose revolutions are to be counted, worm 11, worm wheel 2 and gear 3 begin to rotate. When button a is pressed, pawl 4 is disengaged from ratchet wheel 5 which is keyed to a shaft with flat spring 6 and begins to rotate due to friction between the spring and gear 3. This leads to rotation of gears 7, 8, 9 and 10 which transmit rotation to hands b and c. The numbers of teeth of the gears are selected so that hand b makes 10 revolutions to 1000 revolutions of spindle 1, and hand c makes only one revolution.
