Siphon


Explanation:
Bonjour,
Si vous parlez de cette "cuve" à l'extrémité du robinet, sous s'évier, qui retient graisses et saletés, il s'agit du siphon.

disagree  Daryo: "un siphon" would be normally UNDER the sink, not visible at all unless you go under the sink - This gadget is visible at the bottom of the sink, on top of the drain opening.

neutral  Daryo: from the limited context available it seems to be the whole "mechanism" not just "le clapet" - more info would be useful.
