Hello,
Is anyone able to help me find an English phrase for 'Wendekoerper'. It is a component of a plough, I have even found pictures of what it looks like but am unable to find an English phrase. See

My assignment is for a company that produces cast iron and forged components for various industries.
Many thanks for any inspiration!

reversible plough, rollover plow

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moldboard#Reversible_plough
The reversible plough (or "rollover plow") has two mouldboard ploughs mounted back-to-back, one turning to the right, the other to the left. While one is working the land, the other is carried upside-down in the air. At the end of each row, the paired ploughs are turned over, so the other can be used.

http://www.northsideweldinginc.com/plow
Most American manufacturers of roll-over reset plows have stopped production in lieu of the less expensive “switch” plow. Unfortunately, for farmers burdened with rocky ground, this isn’t a practical solution.
After years of replacing roll over stems, reinforcing three points, and adding additional bottoms, Northside Welding has now added a rollover reset plow to our manufacturing line.
