Patent number: 11828191Abstract: A turbomachine assembly includes a casing, first and second rotors, and a damper. The first rotor includes a disk and blades and is movable in rotation relative to the casing. The second rotor is movable relative to the casing around a longitudinal axis. The damper damps a movement of the first rotor relative to the second rotor. The damper includes first to third parts. The first part bears on the first rotor in a first area extending over a first angular sector around the longitudinal axis and applies a first centrifugal force on the first rotor. The second part bears on the first rotor in a second area that is smaller than the first angular sector and extends over a second angular sector around the longitudinal axis. The third part bears on the second rotor and applies a second centrifugal force on the second rotor.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2020Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: SAFRAN AIRCRAFT ENGINESInventors: Philippe Gérard Edmond Joly, Romain Nicolas Lagarde, Jean-Marc Claude Perrollaz, Laurent Jablonski, François Jean Comin, Edouard Antoine Dominique Marie De Jaeghere, Charles Jean-Pierre Douguet

Patent number: 6595755Abstract: This axial mounting of the bottoms (5) of fan blades provides two levels of flexibility, and features rather low stiffness after using up a predetermined clearance (35) between two stop parts (32, 34), which then imposes a significant increase in stiffness; however significant energy was able to be absorbed through the elastic deformation of certain parts (7, 30) located between the blade and the disc (2), which enables the blade to withstand rather significant momentary forces, for example if a neighboring blade breaks and strikes it.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2001Date of Patent: July 22, 2003Assignee: SNECMA MoteursInventors: Michel Antoine Brioude, Charles Jean Pierre Douguet, Jack Pierre Lauvergnat, Alain Pierre Vegnant
