axle escapement
Explanation:
there must be a misprint regarding "enchapement". As far as this word is concerned French languagge is my mother tongue and the word enchapement does not appear anywhere. I therefore suggest to read "échappement".


fusée: extrémité de l'essieu qui entre dans le moyeu.

Moyeu: pièce centrale d'une roue d'automobile tournant sur la fusée par l'intermédiaire de roulements.

D'où:
axle escapement
escapement: mechanism regulating motion.

J'espère que c'est assez clair.
