pegs

I agree totally with palier and arbre, but have some doubts, particularly about douille

In this context, I would have expected it to be dowels or pegs, in the sense of locating devices for parts that slide together; bushing doesn't make a great deal of sense to me in this context

Also patins --- I would rather have thought feet or slides, though i have more difficulty visualising exactlky what the part is here.

Hope this further detail may be some help !
