collar-type bulkhead/cover plate


Explanation:
first and second BULKHEADS (111, 112; 211,212) being mounted on the front ends of the single external housing (110;210),

première et seconde CULASSES 111, 112
Les faces frontales du corps 110 sont obturées par des première et seconde CULASSES 111, 112 qui sont rapportées de façon étanche, grâce à la présence de joints

Note that in the illustration on the cover page of
http://www.mandjvalve.com/literature/MJ-1937_pistoncheckvom_... (see yr other question)
you can see lifting eyes that screw into a blanking plate / cover plate atop the valve. "Blanking plate" = "bulkhead" = "culasse"???

However if the culasse is such a cover plate/bulkhead, I fail to see why it would have colliers.

Maybe it's the oreilles which are à colliers. Collierflower ears, maybe ;-)
