I have no idea what it is or what it is used for.
Does anyone have any idea?

Manual tank gauge maybe?

Looks like it goes on the top of a tank, the thing on the right looks like a float. When the fluid level goes down, so does the float and it pulls the cable(?) over the pulley. What happens after that would be a wilder guess.
