Update 10/17/08 - Here's the answer:

A rack lifter, this winch was powered by horses and was used to elevate a wagon box or rack of hay up to the second floor of a barn, where it was forked to the storage area. Patent number 379,693 has some drawings of a similar device.


Congrats to utron who got it right first!
