Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks | | English term or phrase: Its large and small ends function as bearings | Bonjour,
il s'agit d'une bielle.
Faut-il traduire "ses extrémités fonctionnent comme des roulements" ? |

| | tête de bielle / pied de bielle/palier | Explanation:
"large end" désigne ce que l'on appelle en français la "tête de bielle", tandis que "small end" est le "pied de bielle" (voir dans le GDT par exemple).
Et je parlerais plutôt de "palier" que de roulement ici.
la tête et le pied de bielle font office de paliers (ils supportent d'autres composants). |
