  • Patent number: 11199096
    Abstract: A turbomachine airfoil element comprises an airfoil having: an inboard end; an outboard end; a leading edge; a trailing edge; a pressure side; and a suction side. A span between the inboard end and the outboard end is 1.75-2.20 inches. A chord length at 50% span is 1.05-1.35 inches. At least two of: a first mode resonance frequency is 2400±10% Hz; a second mode resonance frequency is 4950±10% Hz; a third mode resonance frequency is 7800±10% Hz; a fourth mode resonance frequency is 8700±10% Hz; and a fifth mode resonance frequency is 12500±10% Hz.

  • Patent number: 10823415
    Abstract: A deflector panel for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes an outer radial edge, an inner radial edge, and two circumferential edges extending between the outer radial edge and the inner radial edge. Each circumferential edge including a panel scallop at least partially defining a deflector opening receptive of a fuel nozzle of the combustor. A combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a combustor shell at least partially defining a combustion zone therein, and a deflector assembly operably connected to the combustor shell. The deflector assembly includes a plurality of circumferentially abutted deflector panels. Each deflector panel includes an outer radial edge, an inner radial edge, and two circumferential edges extending between the outer radial edge and the inner radial edge. Each circumferential edge includes a panel scallop at least partially defining a deflector opening. A fuel nozzle extends through the deflector opening.

  • Patent number: 8297880
    Abstract: A method for treating wastewater in a leaching field comprises forming and burying in soil a continuous curve arch shape cross section injection molded thermoplastic leaching chamber. The chamber has inwardly curving sidewalls perforated with closely spaced horizontal slots and peak corrugations which are closely spaced apart on about 8 inch center-to-center distance or less. The chamber configuration in combination with certain plastic material properties and thickness provide strength sufficient to meet regulatory requirements when the soil above the buried chamber is subjected to load.

  • Patent number: 7465122
    Abstract: A continuous curve arch shape cross section leaching chamber made of molded thermoplastic has closely spaced corrugations and sidewalls, portions of which are perforated with horizontal slots. Either or both of the slot height and the local wall thickness of the sidewall portion which defines the slots may vary with slot elevation from the base. The chambers are free of interior and exterior strengthening ribs. They provide high interior storage volume and high leaching area in combination with low mass or weight of plastic material. An exemplary 34 inch wide chamber has more than 1.5 cubic feet of water storage volume per foot, less than 4 pounds weight of thermoplastic material per foot, and at least 30 square inches of slot-provided leaching area per foot.

  • Patent number: 7419331
    Abstract: A continuous curve arch shape cross section leaching chamber made of molded thermoplastic has closely spaced corrugations and sidewalls, portions of which are perforated with horizontal slots. Either or both of the slot height and the local wall thickness which defines the slots may vary with slot elevation from the base, so that a perforated sidewall configuration is achieved which resists entry of surrounding soil.

  • Patent number: 7396188
    Abstract: A continuous curve arch shape cross section leaching chamber made of molded thermoplastic has closely spaced corrugations and sidewalls, portions of which are perforated with horizontal slots. Either or both of the slot height and the local wall thickness which defines the slots may vary with slot elevation from the base, so that a perforated sidewall configuration is achieved which resists entry of surrounding soil. In one embodiment, the slotted sidewall has slots with all the same slot openings and the wall thickness decreases with elevation.

  • Patent number: 7189027
    Abstract: A continuous curve arch shape cross section leaching chamber made of molded thermoplastic has closely spaced corrugations and sidewalls which are perforated with slots which slope downwardly, running from interior to exterior of the chamber. The slot height and or wall thickness vary with slot clevation from the base, to achieve a desired minimum Soil Threshold Angle in the slots, where said Angle parameter relates to resistance to entry of surrounding soil. Slotted wall thickness is less than about two times the thickness of the basic chamber wall thickness elsewhere. The chamber has properties and performance approximating prior art chambers, but has substantially less normalized weight and total weight.

  • Patent number: 5247737
    Abstract: A method of holding a camshaft, one end of the camshaft having a bore, the bore having at least one orientation groove on its interior surface, including the steps of attaching an installation tool to an end of the camshaft, the installation tool having a plug end, the plug end having at least one rib about its outer surface, the ribs having a complementary shape to the orientation grooves, the plug end inserting into the camshaft bore, and using the installation tool to guide and orientate the camshaft.
