champignon
Explanation:
Le terme "champignon" désigne la partie fonctionnelle du clapet. On utilise fréquemment des clapets dont le "champignon" a une forme sphérique (bien qu'ils aient tendance à être bruyants quand ils fonctionnent souvent). D'autres "champignons" sont en forme de bouton ou ressemblent à un petit cône ou disque
