Is there a word for same spelling, different meaning and pronounciation- e.g. lead (heavy metal, dog restraint, past tense of verb to lead)

According tho Wikipedia:

 "Lead the metal and lead the verb, or moped the motorized bicycle and moped the past tense of mope are examples of homographs; they are not homophones, because they are pronounced differently."

This seems to fulfil your definition.
