Explanation:
"expelled" or "squeezed out" (if its a longer process) would be my take, especially if the 'bille' is supposed to stay where it is.

Explanation:
The actual verb you need for 'chassée' will depend on exactly what process is going on here, and in particular, what it is that is doing the 'driving'?

  -> Thanks, B! Like I said, it all depends on just what is doing the action, and with what force and for what purpose...
