English term or phrase: a catch
Provisions for the attachment of bungee cord or similar material to the hook plate and a catch to fasten the bungee cord, has been added to the swing arm handle so that film cassettes or imaging plates can be held firmly in place.

Se ha añadido equipo para adosar de la cuerda tensora o material similar a la placa del gancho y se ha agregado un XXXX para sujetar la cuerda tensora a la manija del brazo oscilante para que los cassettes de grabación o las placas de fotorecepción puedan adherirse firmemente en su lugar.

Les agradezco de antemano sus respuestas.

un enganche


Explanation:
colector o asidero
Yo creo que el "gancho" es el que se menciona en el "hook plate" y el catch es para "amarrar" o "asir" la cuerda
to the hook plate and a catch to fasten the bungee cord

Example sentence(s):
  • y un enganche para sujetar (abrochar) la cuerda elástica
