Why the rachet in Greek grastraphetes can hold on the string?
I am afraid the string force on the sliding plate will cause the rachet leave out the teeth rail.
Thanks for explanation on my question!

F is the string force acting on the sliding plate.
Will the f2 force pull out the claw from the ratchet tooth ?
