This is a subcategory for images of cranequins, a form of crossbow spanning mechanism used for spanning medieval and Renaissance era forms of crossbows.

This crossbow spanning mechanism was manufactured entirely from steel and used for both civilian (e.g. hunting) and military crossbows. Cranequins became particularly popular throughout Europe after the spread of crossbows equipped with steel bows, the heyday of cranequin use for crossbows being the 15th and 16th century.

The cranequin used an early form of the rack and pinion system of gears, operated by a single, one-handed crank lever. Aside from infantry use, the cranequin spanning system was reasonably popular for the horseman's crossbows of the 15th and 16th century, used by mounted crossbowmen.
