What is the history of the pulley?
the pulley was invented in ancient Sicily around 250 BC. The ancient Egyptian wooden four lobe pinion pulley was used to construct the Giza Pyramids around 2600 BC. This pulley surrounds its load and is unlike anything in the modern world. It operates with a mechanical advantage of 2.8 (MA=2.8) on the CLASS 2 lever principle. When hoisted the pulley with load rotates and climbs stepped structures with positive engagements of pulley lobes with steps. This is earliest machine known using "rack and pinion" mechanical technology. Google four lobe pinion pulley
