sheave

sheave
Noun
pl: sheaves

This term operates in two entirely distinct technical domains. In mechanical engineering, it refers to a pulley wheel, where the focus is on the precision of the groove and the guidance of a cable. This usage is common in industrial, maritime, and construction contexts.

In an agricultural context, it describes a bound bundle of harvested grain. This usage is largely archaic or traditional, evoking imagery of manual harvesting and rural labor. Because these two meanings are unrelated, the word is a homonym where the context of machinery versus farming dictates the interpretation.
