tapered collar vs. straight collar (?) Explanation: tapered collar vs. straight collar (?) Schrägschulter- (in combos) tapered, taper … Schulter (mech., auch:) shoulder [area] Wyhlidal, Kraftfahrzeugtechnisches Wörterbuch, ISBN3 923195 01 X Schulter (masch. auch:) shoulder, collar (Ernst, W. der industriellen Technik, ISBN 3 87097 145 2) Searched the web for schrägschulter OR schraegschulter OR planschulter. Results 1 - 10 of about 15. Search took 0.44 seconds tapered collar vs. flat/straight collar? There aren’t many Google hits for these terms, and none with your context. Launching an English search for equivalent erms in English contexts would be easier with more ample context – e.g., what type of engines are involved? Ample context from the asker is both a valuable tool and a simple courtesy much appreciated by your would-be helpers: Both to help us invest our own time efficiently in your behalf -- as you are asking -- and to give you the best answers possible, it makes good sense to include adequate context in your queries -- as a minimum: (1) a definition of the general context (subject matter), plus (2) the entire source sentence (excepting of course confidential/proprietary information, which can be disguised or omitted.) Other useful information may include for instance the target audience/country and the purpose of the translation. All the best, Tom. see above |
