Bonjour,

Je traduis un manuel d'arme à feu, et je recherche le nom d'une pièce, sans trop d'informations ni contexte.
Le segment contient juste crusher.
Je n'ai rien trouvé dans la TM ni dans Termium.
Auriez-vous une idée du nom de cette pièce?

Merci et bonne journée!

crusher


Explanation:
mesure de la pression dans la chambre? Un peu bizarre dans un manuel d'instructions, mais je en vois que ça (à part la destruction des armes dans un broyeur...)

"2.4.0. Canon manométrique.
Les dimensions des canons manométriques et l'emplacement de la mesure de la pression doivent respecter les prescriptions en vigueur.
3.0. L'introduction de ce système est prévue pour le 1er janvier 1989 pour les armes à canon(s) lisse(s) et les armes chargées par la bouche, et pour le 1er janvier 1991 pour les autres armes.
4.0. Pour une période transitoire raisonnable, encore à fixer, les deux systèmes de mesure, crusher et transducteur mécano-électrique, seront admis."

"Copper Crusher Method

Through the mid-1960s, the most common way of measuring pressure was drilling a hole through the chamber of the barrel and inserting a copper slug that fit flush with the chamber walls. When a cartridge is fired, it compresses the copper slug. It is then removed, measured, and compared to the original dimensions. Using the known properties of copper, the chamber pressure can then be calculated and expressed in copper units of pressure (CUP).[3] While there are now more accurate methods of measuring chamber pressure, the copper crusher method is still used for verification purposes.[2] "
