Romanian term or phrase: vizor basculant
Într-un document despre măsuri de apărare împotriva incendiilor. Segmentul de mai jos se referă la echipamente folosite în ateliere de turnătorie.

La pregătirea şarjei şi topirea metalelor în atelierele de turnătorie se asigură următoarele măsuri: (...)

- pornirea cubiloului cu cocs şi gaz combustibil se face numai după ce a fost bine purjat, în scopul eliminării scăpărilor de gaze care pot provoca explozii; pentru a preveni explozia amestecului de dioxid de carbon şi aer, în zona gurilor de vânt, **vizoarele basculante** trebuie să fie menţinute în stare de funcţionare pentru a putea fi deschise în timpul reparaţiilor sau înaintea pornirii cubiloului.

Am mai întâlnit "vizor" într-o lucrare anterioară cu sensul de "sight glass", nu ştiu însă dacă asta e valabil şi aici ca traducere, iar cu "basculant" nu ştiu ce să mă fac. Mulţumesc anticipat pentru îndrumări.

swinging sight


Explanation:
Am gasit pe net expresia la arme (archery + firearms),
If you do not know the limitations of your sight (both fixed and Pendulum) then you are not spending enough time shooting. The swinging sight must be kept clean and can be noiser than fixed but, a pendulum does take out some of the uncertainy of angle compensation.

The Pendulum-Hausse sight is a free-swinging sight attached to a section on the barrel near the breech end.

la aviatie:

When a compass drawn from stock is used as a swinging sight, 180 degrees must be added to compass reading to obtain magnetic heading of aircraft. http://www.tpub.com/content/aviationmaintandmisc/TM-1-1500-2...

Si acolo e vorba tot de un vizor basculant, asa ca probabil se poate folosi si aici.

hinged/sliding windows


Explanation:
On a helmet it's a "hinged visor"
Visors

Visors, made of a high impact-resistant plastic, offer better overall vision than the wire cages available, which can obscure vision in certain areas. The face shield provides excellent straight ahead and peripheral vision, but does not provide as good of air flow as the cage. This causes the shield to fog up during play.

I'm pretty sure that you can't call them "visors" as the term is reserved for the wearable apparatus :), window seems to be it
In a sense, you could call a window, a sight glass
