phase shifter
Siemens called this a "tip shift" in their literature and said that it implemented phase shifts (see the links below, search for your term in the German one and "tip" in the English).
Looking into this in English, they are usually called phase shifters

So, there you go. Hope this moves your further on your search.

phase angle regulator
Google it. There are a lot of hits, and it appears to apply exactly to your context of impedance matching the load to the grid in the context of a transformer.
Phase shifter is alright, but it has a much broader usage (you can phase shift microwaves, different light polarization states etc.
