manivelle anti-retour

English translation: ratchet handle

00:44 Nov 5, 2016

French to English translations [PRO] Tech/Engineering - Furniture / Household Appliances / Parasol parts
French term or phrase: manivelle anti-retour Hi, I'm translating some product descriptions for an online retailer from French for France into British English and am having a little trouble with the phrase above. The item in question is a parasol. Please see the full sentence below for context: 'Il se manipule facilement grâce à sa manivelle anti-retour, sa poignée d'inclinaison et sa pédale de rotation.' I was thinking of possibly 'anti-reverse crank', but I'm not 100% sure. Could someone help please? Thanks!
