Revolver Nomenclature

I've seen frequent references to a revolver's crane, but every diagram of a revolver I've looked at doesn't seem to specify a part as the crane. Is there a different name for it?

    It' the hinged piece that the cylinder swings out on.

    Is that considered the same as the yoke? I think that's what's described in the diagrams I've seen.

    I believe so, won't swear to it. How about it you smiths out there?
