Luis Daniel TEIA DOS SANTOS MENDES GOMES has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10280789
    Abstract: A protection system for a turbo engine, in particular an aircraft engine is provided. The turbo engine comprises at least one fluid duct element with a casing device comprising at least one casing section, encasing at least partially the at least one fluid duct element, said casing device comprising at least one fluid escaping means, wherein the casing device is intended to at least partially contain and/or deflect a fluid stemming from a burst event at the fluid duct element event in order to at least partially protect the turbo engine.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9982627
    Abstract: A thrust reverser unit (TRU) 100 for a gas turbine engine 10 is provided that has first and second cascade elements 110, 120. In a stowed configuration, both the first and second cascade elements, and the operating mechanism, are located inside the nacelle 40, meaning that the TRU has no detrimental impact on the flow through the bypass duct 22. In the deployed configuration, the first cascade element 110 extends across the bypass duct 22. The first cascade element 110 has flow passages 112 that allow the flow to pass through, redirecting the flow towards the second cascade element 120. The second cascade element 120 further turns the flow so as to provide decelerating reverse thrust.

  • Patent number: 9719424
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flow guiding system for a turbo engine, in particular an aircraft engine, characterized by an air intake device taking a thermal management air stream from a free flowing air stream during the operation of the turbo engine and at least one flow guiding means for guiding the thermal management air stream to at least one target region to be thermally managed in the turbo engine. The invention also relates to a turbo engine with a flow guiding system and a method for manufacturing a flow guiding system.
