Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / radio signals
Italian term or phrase: elemento a bottone
This is part of the description of an insualting bag used for isolating a radio transmitter/receiver.
The bag is closed by a drwstring which has the "elemento a bottone" on the string, and when the sdtring is pulled to close the bag, the "elemento a bottone" is pulled up close to hold the drawstring in the pulled close position.
I've seen the drawings for the invention, and the "elemento a bottone" is like the devie used on the drawstrings of outdoor wear "kogouls" and the like.

Does anyone know what thisn is called in the trade?
