  • Publication number: 20110038718
    Abstract: A fluid flow machine has a stator, a rotor which is supported so as to be rotatable relative to the stator, and a brush seal which seals a gap formed between the stator and rotor in a radial direction to prevent the passage of fluid. The brush seal has a brush holder and a plurality of sealing bristles, each of which has a first end that is fastened to the brush holder and a second end that contacts a sealing surface. The sealing surface is rotationally displaceable relative to the second ends of the respective sealing bristles. The sealing surface is formed by a circumferential surface of an intermediate sleeve which is arranged between the stator and rotor and which radially divides the gap.

  • Patent number: 6216438
    Abstract: A pipeline duct through a discharge opening (17) of a vane support housing (1) and an opening (6) in an outer wall (3) of a compressor housing of a gas turbine. The upper part of the pipe (2) is firmly clamped with a flange (14) and seals (7) between the bleeder connection (15) and the outer wall (3) by means of fastening elements (16). The lower part of the pipe (2) is sealed by a piston ring (8). The piston ring (8) is guided by two fastening rings (9, 10), which are mounted in the vane support housing (1) by fastening elements (16). The fastening rings (9, 10) make possible a free movement of the pipe (2) and the housing (3) in relation to the vane support housing (1) in the horizontal direction due to their free spaces (11, 12, 13).
