The pin is subjected to impact loading, thus
we take reduced safe bending stress.

ii. Friction Arresters
• Friction arresters operate noiselessly compared
to the operation of toothed arresting gear.
However, the pressure on the pawl pivot and
shaft is considerably high. Thus they have a
limited application.

iii. Roller Ratchets
• A roller wedged between the follower and
the driver is subject to the action of normal
forces N 1 and N 2 and tangential friction
forces 1 N 1 and 2 N 2 . With the roller in
equilibrium, the resultant force R1 R2 .
