2155 - Looks like a toy to me. Pick it up and move around, the ball
follows the inside of the rods.
2158 - Without any size reference, it could be a flywheel, but looks
to me to be a little "beefier", like a drive or "bull" gear for
something big. Appears to have stripped whatever shaft it was mounted
on and then broke. I'm thinking that cart is about 24" long, which
makes the gear close to 30" diameter, center hole close to 8 or 10".
Just recently saw "How it's Made" show on locomotives, reminds me of
the main drive gear attached to the axle, driven by the treaction
motor.
Others, 21557, 2159 and 2160 others beat me to. I agree on drum hoist,
telco tool and tire chain tool.

A nutcracker?? I would like to see that in action.
I assume you put the nut underneath the ball and slam the ball into it.
This definitely has the potential to disintegrate some nuts!

2155- Looks like a 1/4 storage rack for bowling balls.
2156-Soldering tool of some kind.
2157-A rehabilitation device for Professional Bull Riders.
2158- Looks like the flywheel from my old 1964 GTO after I missed the
first to second gear shift.
2159- One end must be a gut hook for minnows. No idea about the other
end.
2160-Hog ring tool?
All just W.A.G.s

Useless trivia... It's actually a 110 block and a 66 block.

One standard (ANSI Z87.1 ?) for lens testing is a 1 inch steel ball
dropped from 50 inch height; I've seen almost exactly this gizmo in
an optical shop, as a demonstration of tempered lens toughness,
with the larger ball and shorter drop height. There was a sample
lens to play with...

Two Guesses:
2155 A cutesy nutcracker.
2160 This looks like it might be useful in cutting, opening and closing
a specific type of chain. Cutters on the sides. Points open links.
Jaws close links.

Thanks! Looks like you nailed it.
Rob
2155 modern art. It will hold billiards "pool" balls.
2156 totally no clue.
2157 looked familiar. I saw others say it was a drum hoist,
and then I remembered seeing pictures of such a device some
where.
2158 is about 1/4 of a part of a motor. The starter engages
the teeth around the edge. I have seen this kind of thing on
my vehicles, typically in the front of the transmission.
2159 look a bit like a "punch down" tool I saw a telephone
guy use. The wiring junction blocks at business, the new
ones have split terminals, the wire is pushed down between
the blades and "punched down". I remember something about
there being a "121 tool" and a "88 tool". One would do both,
the other would only do one.
2160 My first thought is a cable cutter. But, the forward
edges are flat. And, the edges don't go past each other.
Others suggested a cable clamp crimping tool, and that makes
more sense.

I was thinking of one of the floating balls used to show aerodynamic
principals. An air supply connects to the base and when air is applied
the ball rises in proportion to the pressure. It should stay centered
between the rods which also keep it secured and from flying around.

It's a piece of a Trent 900 jet engine IP turbine.
Recovered from the Qantas A380 incident over Singapore.

Nutcracker is correct, the rest of the answers for this week can be seen

I had looked for a youtube video when I posted the answer but didn't find
one. It does seem like it would be kind of messy, I guess it would work
best if you didn't drop the ball from its full height, and tried to just
slightly crack the nut instead of smashing it. Someone had sent me the
photo, I don't have one of my own to try out.

Posted from rec.crafts.metalworking as always.
2155) Desktop accessory for keeping control of many
receipts or other small (and easily blown) pieces of paper.
Lift the ball, slide new piece of paper under it, let ball back
down.
2156) Strange tool If it were two points instead of a point and a
hook, I would consider it as being a test probe of some sort,
and would be wanting to get an end-on look at the end which is
held.
As it is, perhaps the hook latches onto a piece of stiff wire,
and the tool pivots around that point to drive the sharp point
into something.
But -- this still does not explain the scallop type part
spot-welded on about a third of the way up the pointed side.
2157) Either a hanging display bracket for a large ball (like a
globe) -- or for pressing in on the tread of a tire at three
points separated by 120 degrees, perhaps as an assist in seating
the bead on a tire.
2158) Speaking of tires -- this appears to be part of a solid tire,
perhaps filled with foam rubber. It looks to have split
(amazingly cleanly) along one of the tread grooves, and to have
been cut apart from the rest at two 90 degree points, while the
inner surface just broke on its own.
I've seem something like this (but smaller) as flat-free tires
for wheelbarrows.
2159) At first, I though that this was some kind of relay adjustment
tool -- with a handle similar to the J-66 punchdown tool for
phone terminal blocks.
But examination of the narrow end detail photos suggests to me
that it may be a form of "bump" style lock picking tool.
2160) Combination crimper and cutter for solid wire (of the gauge
typical in fencing). Perhaps it is for crimping ferrules to
form an eye splice in wire rope.
Now to post this and then see what others have suggested.
Enjoy,
DoN.

This is Correct I used to use one when i worked for Telecom (in NZ) still
have it around somewhere
the front part on the image (the gray bit) is pushed on the krone block and
the black part is a nifty wire cutter
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/328168160/Krone_type_impact_tool_punch_down.html
that looks a lot like it there.
