Forklift Winch

At times the spool can be called the winch drum. Complex designs have gear assemblies that could be powered by electric, pneumatic, internal or hydraulic combustion drives. Some winches may comprise a solenoid brake or a mechanical brake or a pawl and ratchet device in order to stop it from unwinding unless the pawl is retracted.
