1 hr confidence: 
compás de unión atornillada Explanation: Si no me equivoco, esto significa que sus dos piezas se unen firmemente con un tornillo, por lo cual se deben utilizar las manos para abrirlo o cerrarlo en mayor o menor grado, a diferencia de compases que utilizan resortes o muelles o tienen un segundo tornillo para mayor precisión y facilidad de manejo. Aflojando o apretando el tornillo se facilita o dificulta su apertura y cierre. Me baso en la siguiente definición: Firm joint caliper: A Firm Joint Caliper: Is adjusted by pulling open or squeezing narrower manually by hand.

calibrador Explanation: según Collins Spanish Dictionary, ISBN 0-00-470-295-6 ¡Buena suerte, María Wiemer! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-04-20 13:58:03 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Puede ser \"freno\". En ese caso \"calliper\" se traduze como \"Felgenbremse\" en aleman. Re.: Collins German Dictionary, ISBN 0-00-470406-1 |
