  • Clipped heat shield assembly
    Patent number: 10539153
    Abstract: Bleed air system includes bleed port with annular bleed slot in a compressor inner casing surrounding flowpath circumscribing a centerline in compressor inner casing. Inner and outer slot walls bound bleed flow passage through the bleed slot. Annular array of arcuate shields radially inwardly bound the bleed flow passage downstream and aft of inner slot wall. Each shield includes integrally-formed axially forward retaining portion, downstream portion, and upstream portion therebetween. Clipping means clips retaining portion to aft facing radial wall of annular lip on inner slot wall. Clipping means may be arcuate or annular clip having forward annular portion attached to annular aft flange substantially perpendicular to the centerline and forward annular portion disposed in annular slot extending into inner slot wall. Forward annular portion and annular slot may be cylindrical or conical. Clip may include aft conical portion radially offset from forward conical portion and transition portion therebetween.
