A smooth plate found on the inside of the camera back that is forced towards the front of the camera by springs, causing it to hold the film evenly in place for exposure.
This bolts onto the front of the flywheel and squeezes the clutch disk tightly against the flywheel's friction surface. These are available in two basic styles; the spring-type (which is the stock style) and the diaphragm-type (Porsche style). Both are further available in multiple pressure ratings so that they can be used on mild street engines (light-duty) or wild race applications (super-heavy duty).
Part of the internal workings of a camera, the pressure plate is located on the other side of the film from the gate. It is a smooth, spring-loaded plate that holds the film on the film plane and acts as a brake, helping to hold the film steady while it is exposed. [Go to source
a metal spring-loaded friction surface that is bolted to the flywheel
Sprung plate of metal, plastic, or even glass to press the film against the film track to keep it accurately positioned at the correct distance behind the lens.
A plate on the side of a gear or vane pump or motor cartridge that is used to keep clearance and slippage to a minimum.
Spring load plate which holds the film steady on the film plane while its being exposed.
A spring-loaded plate (part of the clutch) that transmits power to the driven (friction) plate when the clutch is engaged.
A disc that's forced by springs against the clutch disk, which forces the disc and the engine flywheel against each other, causing the engine and the transmission to turn at the same rate of speed.
That part of a manual clutch that is mounted on and rotates with the flywheel and exerts pressure against the friction disc.
A plate located beneath the bolster that acts against the resistance of a group of cylinders mounted to the pressure plate to provide uniform pressure throughout the press stroke when the press is symmetrically loaded.
