Patent number: 11261756Abstract: A method for manufacturing a casing, for example, an exhaust casing, for a turbomachine. The method generally includes: (a) producing casing sectors, each casing sector having a hub sector, a ferrule sector, and at least one arm linking the hub and ferrule sectors, (b) arranging the casing sectors adjacently and circumferentially, such that each hub sector has longitudinal edges facing longitudinal edges of adjacent hub sectors, (c) welding the longitudinal edges facing the hub sectors, and (d) adding and welding at least a second part of the ferrule to the casing sectors.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2017Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: SAFRAN AIRCRAFT ENGINESInventors: Benoit Argémiro Matthieu Debray, Dominique Michel Fouquet, Grégory Ghosarossian-Prillieux, Guillaume Sevi, Patrick Sultana, Guy Vieillefond

Patent number: 11060418Abstract: A casing is provided, for example, an exhaust casing for a turbomachine. The casing generally includes an inner hub having an axis of rotation and an outer annular ferrule extending around the hub, the ferrule configured to define, with the hub, an annular flow path for a gas stream. In some examples, the ferrule is rigidly connected to the hub by arms. The hub generally includes, at one longitudinal end, a scalloped annular flange comprising solid portions distributed at regular intervals about said axis and spaced apart from each other by hollow portions. The hub is produced by assembling several angular hub sectors arranged circumferentially end to end around the axis, each hub sector connected to an adjacent hub sector by a longitudinal weld bead that extends over substantially the entire axial extent of the hub and that is substantially aligned axially with a hollow portion of said flange.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2017Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: SAFRAN AIRCRAFT ENGINESInventors: Benoit Argémiro Matthieu Debray, Dominique Michel Fouquet, Grégory Ghosarossian-Prillieux, Guillaume Sevi, Patrick Sultana, Guy Vieillefond
