Lithuanian term

Ratukiniai kreipiančiųjų šliaužikliai

Lithuanian to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng Lifts (elevators)
Verčiu tekstą apie liftus. Štai dalis jų įrangos. Ratukiniai kreipiančiųjų šliaužikliai – neįsivaiduoju, kas tai gali būti. Something to do with the buttoms people push to summon the left. I suppose „kreipiančiųjų“ refers to the people summoning the lift, does it?

Watch this space.

I agree. The next thing is to post the correct answer so that it remains available for others.
Gintautas Kaminskas (asker) Jul 20, 2013:
Useful website Thanks for your help, both of you, but I think the answer lies somewhere in this useful website: http://www.google.com/patents/US5033589 . I just have to sit down and read it carefully.
Arturas Bakanauskas Jul 20, 2013:
The wheel (attached to the drawer or lift) travels in the slide, which is fixed to the wall.
Arturas Bakanauskas Jul 20, 2013:
Actually the link I used in my answer I gave also gives a slide guide.
Gintautas Kaminskas (asker) Jul 20, 2013:
No, not sure Thanks, Artūras. This is a trick one. I'm starting to suspect I was way out in what I imagined when I asked the question. It appears that „kreipiančiosios“ may be some sort of long metal things, similar to rails, e.g. http://www.dagmita.lt/grandiniu-kreipianciosios. The ones pictured here have have chains on them but I suppose „Ratukiniai kreipiančiųjų šliaužikliai“ are some sort of gadgets ("sliders" – šliaužikliai) that slide along the rails ( „kreipiančiosios“) on little wheels (ratukai). Do you think I'm on the write track? Leonardai, where did you find "wheel slide guide"? I have wasted so much time on searching Internet for this!
Arturas Bakanauskas Jul 20, 2013:
Are you sure of the meaning? You probably already saw this, but dropping the first element yields this text without pictures STABDŽIŲ REM. KOMPL. (REPAIR KIT, BRAKE CALIPER) Kreipiančiųjų kompl. 1stb. cilidrui (šliaužikliai +aps.gumos) at http://www.olmio.lt/eshop/index.php?route=product/category&p... To catch these ten instances, you need to search using the part number and manufacturer: KC37003 udf as presumably the duplication search element eliminates most when searching for kreipiančiųjų šliaužikliai and somethimes this part is called . Could this be part of the door opening mechanism, perhaps used by repairmen since you are reading human activity into the name? I have also seen such a mechanism fitted to the wall when the doors open when the lift is not there.

wheeled slides

Judging from the hits I am getting from just the last two elements, this seems to be the meaning. While you can find wheeled slides and guide slides, you cannot find wheeled guide slides from what I have seen on Google. Since the wheeled element seems more important, I would use the former term.
Something went wrong...
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks, Artūrai. With the help of that patent website it would appear that šliaužikliai are "sliders" and they are "ratukiniai" because they have little wheels on them and the "kreipiančiosios" are the rails that they slide/roll along."
