"Vorteilhafterweise kann die Abzugseinrichtung noch dadurch weitergebildet werde, daß die Sicherungswalze eine Rastvertiefung aufweist, und daß ein Sicherungsbolzen vorgesehen ist, der in der Feuerlage der Sicherungswalze in die Rastvertiefung einfällt"
This is for a patent for a trigger device for a rapid-firing weapon - I am have trouble with the word "Rastvertiefung" and would be grateful for any assistance in shedding light on this term.
Many thanks in advance,
