AFAIK never used in canon. Any {bobcho'mey} in the {paq'batlh}?
This is not the same thing as {'ay'} "section, part, component, piece". Compare {'ay'mey tetlh} "components/parts list" in the BOP Poster title:
tlhIngan toQDuj 'ay'mey tetlh
Klingon Bird of Prey technical callouts
Unofficially, I've seen {bobcho'} used for pod, capsule (on a rocket), chamber, cell (e.g. spy organization) and even apartment. E.g.:
*De' bobcho' data module?
*narghmeH bobcho' escape pod?
*rugh ngaSmeH bobcho' antimatter containment pod?
*yIntagh bobcho' stasis unit/pod?
*bobcho'lIj bobcho'wIj ghap?
Your module or mine?
