English term

Recess

English to French Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng Cores
Bonjour,

Je ne comprends pas à quoi ce terme fait référence. Il apparaît dans un document relatifs aux noyaux ferrites =>
Spring recess
"cores usually have recesses which allow the core halves to be held together by two spring clamps snapping into these recesses".
The recesses consist of a flat spring rest and a locking ridge.

Merci par avance pour votre aide !

@ Mudem As no selection was made within the allotted period of time the most agreed proposal was selected automatically.

I see that you preferred another term "encoche". Do you know that it is possible for the asker to modify each entry acc. your preferences?

Any future peer looking for the same term with the same subject would also be grateful to know your appreciation. Thank you in advance.

Note: This may not affect the allocation of points.

logement

If you are looking for the most general possible word, describing its function rather than its form. It is in essence a kind of housing — a space to 'house' the spring.

Otherwise, it might be a 'renfoncement' or an 'encoche', or even a 'rainure' — but these risk being too specific for a generalized cases, as this seems to be here.

The illustration kindly found for us by SafeTex exactly illustrtaes what Asker's source text is talking about: you can see not just the 'groove' in the side, but also, the "flat spring rest and a locking ridge". Seeing it illustrated in this way that exactly corresponds to Asker's context makes me more confident than ever that 'logement' is the correct term, as it is specially shaped to 'house' the end of the spring clip.
Note from asker:
Un grand merci pour l'illustration et l'explication. Après vérification auprès de mon commanditaire, encoche est le terme privilégié

Illustration of one type

This illustration shows just one of the very many different type of ferrite cores available; I chose this one simply because the recess is clearly visible: in this model, it happens to be just a sort of 'groove', but of course many different designs exist.

Picture with flat springs

Hello
I've just tried to answer a similar question before seeing this one. I have a reference similar to Tony's but where you can see the springs.
I like "logement" and think we may now have enough info and answers for the asker to make a choice or concoct something together himself
Peer comments on this reference comment:

agree Tony M : Yes, that's a very similar type, but the drawing shows the recess better, and also illustrates the special shape mentioned in Asker's text: this is exactly the reason I am convinced 'logement' is the correct term here, more than a simple 'groove'.
