Increasing force without changing direction 2

Input: blue wedge. Vertical force F1 is applied to it. Output: green slider. Axial force F2 is applied to it . Brown roller contacts with the blue wedge. Pink rollers contact with the green wedge. F2 = F1. tg(B) / tg(A) A: angle of the blue wedge. B: angle of the green wedge. In this video A = 30 deg.; B = 60 deg. then F2 = If B is smaller and A is larger, F2 can be considerably larger than F1. For example: A = 15 deg.; B = 75 deg. then F2 =
