The Yellow Cherne Industries is a pipe plug.
Typically used to test plumbing or prevent debris from getting in pipe during construction.
The "Caution, stand clear while in use" warning is real. The piping would be filled with water to several stories. If it let loose it became a missile that would cause injury.

The brown things on the right and left are part of a block and tackle, the yellow thing is a plug that could fit a freeze plug hole in an engine, the other thing looks like part of a sediment bowl assembly, can't see the silver thing with the handles well enough, looks like a valve stem tool for an inner tube. The other two items are bolts. That is my educated guess for what it is worth tonight.
Yellow thing is a compression stopper for like in floor drains,
The two square headed bolts remind me of the oler toilet seat bolts.
the aluminium or pot metal horseshoe looking thingy
may be part of some type of a filter or a water separator with parts missing.
The little "T" handled'' looks like a radiator wrench for bleeding hot water heaters.
Pulley mechanisms remind me of some I saw in an old slaughter house for hanging beef in the process of butchering.

The silver T shaped device is a bicycle spoke wrench. The silver shaped strips are fuse inserts for cartridge fuses. The ends screw off, and new fuse elements are installed. Many still in use, common. Jim

Yup, the yellow thing is used to plug off pipe fittings when testing tanks for leaks. I almost got blown off the top of a 400+ barrel tank when one of them flew out out a tank that was being pressurized with about 1 1/2 or 2 PSI. 2 PSI doesn't seem like much but 2 PSI inside a 20,000 gallon or so tank is a heck of a volume of air to come out of a 4" opening. You'd swear there was 150 PSI in the tank! The tank I was on top off was 40' away and the plug blew right over where the ladder was. About a minute before it blew, I was at the top of ladder climbing on the tank to weld the fittings. It shook the tank when it blew past.

i would say the 2 pulleys were snatch blocks for guiding 1" rope around doors, edges, etc that would chafe or cut the rope. one use would be putting loose hay into a mow with harpoon forks or a grapple fork.

The pulley on the left looks like the pulleys we used to use on the sling at the bottom of the hay wagon. We would lay the sling out on the bottom the wagon then stack loose hay on it. When we unloaded it we used harpoon forks until we got down to about three feet of the bottom, then hooked two pulleys, so they came together back to back, pulled it up into the hay mow, pulled a small rope to trip the release in the middle on the bottom once it was in the air, and dumped it, then the work started as we had to go in there and level it off, or "mow it away"
