Aby odci±żyć napięcie trzymanej dłoni± liny używa się różnego typu urz±dzeń jak knagi zaciskowe, knagi szczelinowe, knagi szczękowe, kabestany czy bloki odci±żaj±ce mocowane do różnych czę¶ci jachtu.
This is a patent for a sailing glove.
I would like to know if there is a proper yachting term for "blok odci±żaj±cy".
I have thought of "counterbalance block", "strain relief block" and other ideas, but in my searches in the internet, nothing seems to be linked to sailing.
