Befogóinak

Befogóinak is a Hungarian term that appears in technical and descriptive writing. It is the genitive plural form of befogó, a noun referring to a device or mechanism that captures, clamps, or holds something in place. Therefore befogóinak can be understood as “the capturing/holding devices of” a given subject, or more loosely, “their clamps” or “their securing devices,” depending on context.

Etymology and form: befogó derives from befogni (to seize, to capture) with the suffix -ó forming an agent noun meaning a device or instrument. The ending -inak marks third-person plural possessive, so befogóinak indicates ownership by multiple entities or by the subject previously mentioned.

Usage and scope: befogóinak is primarily used in technical, mechanical, or industrial contexts where multiple devices exist to capture, guide, or secure components. It can refer to clamps, chucks, fixtures, or other securing elements that belong to a machine, system, or operator group. The exact meaning depends on the surrounding text and the antecedent of the possessive phrase.

Example usage (illustrative):

- A gép befogóinak meghibásodása miatt leállt a gyártás. (The machine’s clamps failed, causing production to halt.)

- A szerkezet befogóinak tervezése különös figyelmet igényel a munkadarabok megfelelő rögzítéséhez. (The design of the securing devices of the assembly requires special attention to proper workpiece holding.)

See also: befogó, fogó, befogás, rögzítés.

Notes: Because befogóinak is a possessive form, its precise referent is determined by context, and it can denote devices belonging to a machine, a system, or a team of operators.
