Englishravaṇaka, nt., some kind of filtering vessel: °kam Mvy 〔9024〕 = Tib. bum tshags gceḥu can, filter-vessel provided with a pipe
Chin. water-filter that has a tongue (spout)
Jap. filter made of bamboo. Prob. = Pali ravaṇaghaṭa, to which the bladder is compared in Vism. 〔264.37, 362.36〕, app. because (〔265.1 ff.〕) no way of entrance (of the urine) into it is evident, while the way of exit is evident. This suggests that our words (Pali and BHS) designate a vessel of porous material (bamboo acc. to Jap.) thru which water could be soaked in (and filtered), then to be poured out thru a spout.
