I think he understood the question Patric, he answered
 that the ring in the back of the lens is like a
diaphragm to save quality in difficult situations;
difficult situations are a strong backlight photo, a
photo where the sun appears directly, some other
strong light source, the diaphragm could help to save
image quality, that is its function, a light trap. 
The second part could need more explanation. I
commented him in the last part of my question that I
had not seen the diaphragm in the Rolleicord IV (I'll
look again tonight), and then he answers that the
diaphragm can look different for every calculation, I
think he meant that the diaphragm is calculated
different for different models and then they look
different. In fact my Rolleiflex 2.8C 2.8/80 Xenotar
and my Rolleicord IV 3.5/75 Xenar look very different
in the taking lens back and both are like new in this
part.-

All the best
