Glossary entry (derived from question below)
Italian term or phrase:
copiglia
English translation:
split pin
Italian term
copiglia
'Ogni perno è dotato di una copiglia con una catena che la rende solidale al perno stesso.'
As I have always translated perno as 'pin' and copilgia as 'split pin', I do not understand what the copiglia could be in this case?
More context:
In tutte queste operazioni, il bloccaggio dei vari componenti mobili è ottenuto per mezzo di alcuni perni.
The machinery is a screener (it 'sifts' gravel, building demolition materials....)
