verrou tournant


Explanation:
Une suggestion, je ne vois pas bien ce que la notion de "tourniquet" viendrait faire ici. Peut-être un moyen élaboré pour désigner quelque chose de simple ?!

neutral  Tony M: It isn't usual in EN to use « un moyen élaboré pour désigner quelque chose de simple » I believe this is one of those latches that turns continuously, alternately releasing or holding every 90° (whence the 'turnstile' image)
