Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial
English term or phrase: deadfall box
Le principe est simple, il s’agit d’ajouter un deadfall box pour protéger un équipement de l’impact de produit/matière arrivant trop rapidement (d’un convoyeur, d’une goulotte, etc.) et qui l’userait prématurément. Mais je ne vois pas comment appeler cela en français ! Merci pour vos suggestions.

Abrasive stock entering the top of the equipment should enter via a ***deadfall box*** so that the speed of the incoming materials is reduced and the impact at this point is absorbed, reducing wear.

boîtier amortisseur


Explanation:
En général, c'est le rôle d'un "amortisseur" d'absorber les chocs. Essayez peut-être de voir du côté du mot "tampon" (mot que l'on utilise pour "amortir les chocs").
