French term

se déploie

French to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering thermostatic tap
Context:
- un élément thermostatique (31), qui inclut à la fois un piston (36), qui est relié à l’enveloppe (10) de manière que, dans une configuration de service du dispositif (1), le piston occupe une position fixe selon l’axe (X-X) par rapport à l’enveloppe, et un corps (33 ; 33’), qui contient une matière thermodilatable (34) et qui, avec cette matière thermodilatable, forme une partie thermosensible (35) de l’organe d’entraînement thermomécanique, disposée dans la chambre, le piston étant monté mobile suivant l’axe (X-X) sur le corps de manière que le piston se déploie vis-à-vis du corps lors d’une dilatation de la matière thermodilatable, et
This is a PR task and not happy with deployed.

A term that crops up frequently in patents, often translated as deployed.
Would displaced be a better option.
TIA Chris.

is deployed (against)

For once, "deployed" is ok here, in my opinion anyway.

Obviously vis-à-vis > against

Full paragraph:

"As an alternate embodiment to the seal shown and described, FIG. 3 illustrates a similar seal 52 wherein an upper, inner region 54 of the seal is configured for fluid pressure to readily rotate and expand seal 52 outward until broad facing surface 56 is in sealing engagement with surface 48 of tongue 20 (dotted lines). This is accomplished by providing a surface 58 which extends upwardly generally parallel to tongue wall 48 and, after seal 52 is twisted by booster ignition about pivotal edge seal 53 and leading edge 59 ***is deployed against*** surface 48, is at an acute angle to inside surface 48 of tongue 20. Fluid pressure against inner surface 58 of seal 52 then causes the seal to twist in an opposite direction to the initial twist and forces the seal outward into its *fully deployed position*, with broad seal surface 56 against inner tongue surface 48. As described earlier in the seal of FIG. 2, a frustro-conical surface 51 provides a positive stop against twisting motion of seal 52 by providing a surface which abuts against groove wall 38."

To Bashiqa: no problem. 28°C here. Overheating could be a problem alright!

Note from asker:
Thanks for speedy response, i`ll not overheat my grey matter any longer.
Temp here about 32. Off to Toulouse area on Friday and expecting nearer to 42!!
Now in Toulouse and temp was 42 Friday, now a mere 33 but gale force wind.
Peer comment(s):

agree Bourth : Besides, if you use 'displace', how will the Translation Machine know when to use 'deploy' and when not to? ;-) No shortage of real-English patentese and non-patentese examples.

Certainly many examples available. Humans are still required for these subtleties though. Thanks CadastreToulous!
