Hi all,
Essentially i'm looking to design a new ratchet based on the one below. The new one must click 3 times in 1 rotation, thus 120 degrees each. Obviously this requires a re-design of the pawl, cog, arm, etc.
I was wondering if the design principles are summarised somewhere, or if someone can summarise them for me. Obviously I see alot of mathematical parameters which I could figure out with perhaps 5 hours of time + pen & paper. But, I was wondering if you know of any general guidelines.
Thanks!
