flat O-ring/seal/washer Explanation: Pistons in hydraulic systems have to have a seal to maintain pressure and prevent leakage. They come in all sizes. http://zyc6816.diytrade.com/sdp/416078/4/pd-2286416/2197136-... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 hrs (2007-11-07 03:40:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Some air dryers have small double action pistons that operate dampers, opening and closing them. |

collector ring Explanation: Creo que es así, según lo dice mi Dicc. Routledge, pero habrá que seguir buscando y ver otras posibilidades. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2007-11-06 13:55:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Lisa, there is lots of references for "anillo rasero" related to other mech. applications inc. cereal measuring, etc. "Rasero" means the ring acts to collect or to level something by "scraping". Without a sketch or further reference I'd be tempted to call it a "scraping ring" since scraping means the action of the ring, and it is not a wild guess. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 hrs (2007-11-06 20:49:53 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Air dryers are used amply in cereal processing. In this link, we can see <4.5 . Después del llenado y el peso de la medida de capacidad , el cereal sobrante que se encuentre por encima del cuchillo rasero , en el anillo , se recogerá en un recipiente colector .> The knife and ring work together, the knife to level and the ring to scrape the residue sending it to the collector vessel, that is why they seem to call it "anillo rasero". The excess cereal is deposited over the ring, I have no doubt now the correct name is a "collector ring". http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day15 mins (2007-11-07 10:54:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The comment by bigedsenior has brought into focus that the name of the ring as "rasero" could be wrong. This name cannot be associated with the valve pistons because it is not the correct trade jargon. Thus, yet again, here is another question that has led us up the garden path. Without further info, I would make a note on the translation for the 2 possibilities. A translation can only be as good as the original draft, and if the latter is full of peculiar jargon and mixed concepts, the result would only be guesswork. |
