  • Patent number: 11480109
    Abstract: A reduction gear for a turbomachine (6) extending around an axis (X-X) of rotation, comprising a ring gear (9) connected to a ring gear carrier (12), wherein the ring gear carrier (12) has, according to a section view along a plane including the axis (X-X), an internal segment (124), an external segment (126) and a ring gear support (128), extending successively from the internal shaft (122) until the ring gear support (128), the internal segment (124) extends until a radius R1 with respect to the axis (X-X), the external segment (126) forms an angle ? with the internal segment (124), the ring gear support (128) forms an angle ? with the external segment (126), and is secured to the ring gear (9) via a bolted connection accomplished at a nominal radius R2 with respect to the axis (X-X), in that the ratio R1/R2 is comprised between 0.3 and 0.7.

  • Patent number: 11242925
    Abstract: A ring gear for an epicyclic or planetary reduction gear of a turbomachine, in particular of an aircraft, said ring gear extending about an axis X and comprising first and second coaxial annular elements and comprising, respectively, two inner annular toothing sets of different orientation, each of said toothing sets having a pitch diameter and a median plane substantially perpendicular to said axis and with an intersection point designated Y in an axial cross-section of the ring gear, said first and second annular elements further comprising, respectively, first and second radially outer annular flanges for attaching said first and second elements to each other, wherein each of said first and second flanges comprises a peripheral portion extending in a plane that is angled with respect to said axis X and that passes substantially through said intersection point Y.

  • Patent number: 11022045
    Abstract: A mechanical reduction gear is suitable for a turbomachine and, in particular, a turbomachine of an aircraft. The reduction gear includes a sun gear, a ring gear formed by two half-ring gears, planet gears arranged between the sun gear and the ring gear, and at least one shaft rotationally fixed to the ring gear. The reduction gear further includes an annular covering part that extends around the ring gear and is independently fixed by flanges and/or splines to each of the half-ring gears.
