English term or phrase: ball ramp
"Lock lever with **ball ramp** mechanism"

Sem mais contexto. Está numa lista de peças que compõem uma caixa de transferência de um carro.

Os termos mais óbvios que me ocorreram (tipo rampa esférica ou de esferas), não achei ocorrência na net.

Alguma sugestão?
Obrigada!

Explanation:
Vi algumas imagens na Internet e me parece que podem ser duas coisas :

Mecanismo de rampa de esferas
Mecanismo de esfera e rampa

Achei um site que explica como funciona esse sistema de travamento (ball and ramp):

http://www.ford-taurus.org/taurusinfo/Features/ParkBrake.pdf

"Ball-and-Ramp Operation. Ford’s floating caliper rear disc brakes are the most common example
of the ball-and-ramp parking brake mechanism (Figure 8-17). The caliper lever is attached to
a shaft inside the caliper that has a small plate on the other end. Another plate is attached to a
thrust screw inside the caliper piston. The two plates face each other, and three steel balls separate
them. When the parking brake is applied, the caliper lever rotates the shaft and plate. Ramps
in the surface of the plate force the balls outward against similar ramps in the other plate. As the
plates move farther apart, the thrust screw forces the piston outward. The thrust screw cannot
rotate because it is keyed to the caliper. The piston then applies the inboard brake pad, and the
caliper slides as it does for service brake operation and forces the outboard pad against the rotor.
When the caliper piston moves away from the thrust screw, an adjuster nut inside the piston
rotates on the screw to take up clearance and provide self-adjustment. A drive ring on the nut
keeps it from rotating backward."


Essas imagens mostram as rampas e as esferas:

Como se trata de mais de uma rampa e mais de uma esfera, eu ficaria com a segunda opção, mas colocando-a no plural:

mecanismo de rampas e esferas

2.2.1.7.2 Mecanismo de esfera e rampa

"A alavanca da pinça é ligada a um eixo que possui uma placa na outra extremidade.
Outra placa é ligada a um parafuso de pressão dentro do pistão da pinça. As duas placas são
montadas paralelamente, e três esferas de aço as separam. Quando o freio de estacionamento
é acionado, a alavanca gira o eixo e a placa...."


Não vejo porque manter em inglês se dispomos de recursos para traduzir preservando a ideia central.
