Morphology
springform + pan
The element 'springform' is compositionally built from 'spring' + 'form' and combined with 'pan' yields a pan that uses a spring-based form mechanism, so a learner could plausibly infer it is a pan with a spring mechanism for the form. However, this is a specialized baking term (removable sides and a latch) and the exact feature set (removable sides, latch) may not be fully predictable to a B1 learner without domain knowledge, making the transparency partial.
Etymology
Springform pan is named for its simple design: a metal spring or latch lets the pan's side open so the cake keeps its form and can be 'released' without damage. That's why the name now means a round baking pan used to take delicate cakes out easily.
