Hebrew term

גרומשקה למדומם

Hebrew to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering military
Part of a list of items in a file entitled "מדומם מכני - מכלל"

I found some references to גרומשקה as a requisite stage in securing building permits, and one other reference to it as a part in a car.

Thanks in advance for your expertise!

Thanks for all your answers. by hybridizing your responses, I found several web references to accordion bellows used in mechanics. Thanks for helping to make sense of the term in the context of this project!

Rena, Can you state which type of vehicle or machine this is used in? I'm guessing tank, but need verification, please.

2Lingopro I swear, I have not seen your note! We had same thoughts. ))

If it helps, גרמושקה is an accordion-shaped something.
In building permits it is called that because the entire plans for the building are submitted on a loooooong sheet of paper which is folded like an accordion...

Connection bellow

This is my guess: the word sounds very much like Russian "garmoshka" - accordion. It is also used sometimes in technical slang in the meaning "Connection bellow".
It may fit your context.
