What is the Spanish for 'iron maiden' - the weird device that punctures as

Work like the ponies in coalmines.
Dance like the teardrop explodes.
Love like you're Frank in Blue Velvet.
Sing as though your little throat would burst.

Thank you, Martin.
I thought that perhaps it had its own totally colloquial name.
