4 - Three - geared Winch
Codex Atlanticus, f. 1083 v

Without notes by Leonardo.

The drawing on which this winch or windlass was based is similar to one sketched by Bonaccorso Ghiberti and probably stems from a machine devised by Brunelleschi. Further mechanical details of a crane can be seen on the same sheet.
