With the dog and the notched on the one wheel it looks like it is
designed to stretch something. With the "Y" shaped ends on the large
wheel, it looks like they are to wind something on, some something in
the manufacture of thread? Or some kind of mini winch system, for
curtains or blinds?

The auction sale is tomorrow.
I doubt that I'll be buying anything, but I might go -
- just to find out what this thing is ..

They mention a corn sheller. Can't see how it would work as that,
though. Agree it looks like a cord winder.

Might be close to a sexy toy, depending on your leanings.

Pinterest has a similar pic of the sprocket, states it's related to a dairy farm tool. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/496592296384607638

I had Googled "antique farm sprocket tool".

Another Pinterest image, states it's a cistern pump sprocket, pulley.

No, not sex. It was a cleaning tool before the invention of toilet
tissue.

Or a medieval torture apparatus, for stretching scrotums.

My guess is some farmers chain pump did not work, so he recycled it.

Or perhaps scratching.
