inlet comb
Just an idea.
Please take a look at this definition:
IT piastra a pettine
EN combplate
threshold comb
(parte fissa alla zona di ingresso e di uscita di marciapiedi e scale mobili, che fa presa con i suoi denti nelle fessure del rivestimento di calpestio dei tappeti o dei gradini in movimento )
Is it something similar?
Comb is also the generic translation of pettine:
eg. pettine collettore (di energia elettrica per motrici ferroviarie a terza rotaia) collector comb(from Hoepli technical dictionary)
