Semi-serious:

#242 an artefact
#243 ticket puncher for use by conductors (bus etc.)
#244 screwed onto a chain, it allows the end of the chain to be
padlocked. It would be needed in a miner's dressing hall: instead of
using lockers, the miners pulled their bundles up under the high hall
roof (using a pulley, of course) and secured the line end down below, so
noone could get at their bundle.
#245 is pictured on photo #228 as well.
#246 a small printing press? with the typeface in the drawers?
#247 a handle

Done!
