Vacuum filtration device
Explanation:
Eine Nutsche ist ein Büchner-Trichter (Büchner funnel) und the Auffangflasche nennt man Büchner-Flasche (Büchner flask), ode auch Saugflasche, Abnutschen ist das Filtern mit Vakuum, dass an die Saugflasche angelegt wird. Alternative Übersetzungen sind vacuum funnel, vacuum flask und andere. Alles zusammen würde ich als vacuum filtration device bezeichnen
