  • Patent number: 10301225
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a multi-perforated part out of composite material includes positioning a sand-blasting mask on a preform including a fiber texture impregnated with a polymerized ceramic-precursor resin, the mask having a plurality of openings corresponding to the perforations to be made in the preform; projecting abrasive particles at high speed against the surface of the mask so as to perforate the preform exposed in the openings of the mask; and pyrolyzing the multi-perforated preform so as to form a ceramic matrix in the multi-perforated fiber texture.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 2, 2015
    Date of Patent: May 28, 2019

  • Patent number: 8584356
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a lobed structure for a gas turbine flow mixer having an annular upstream portion extended downstream by a portion forming a multilobed skirt, the method comprising: making a fiber preform (100) out of refractory fibers and having a shape corresponding to the shape of the lobed structure to be fabricated, from a plurality of component elements of fiber texture that are assembled together and shaped by means of tooling of a shape corresponding to the shape of the lobed structure to be fabricated so as to obtain an assembled fiber preform having a first preform portion (111) corresponding to the annular portion of the lobed structure and a second preform portion (112) corresponding to the multilobed skirt of the lobed structure, the component elements of the fiber preform being assembled together at least in part along connection lines (121) extending substantially in the flow direction of the flow past the lobes of the multilobed skirt preform portion; and densifying the assembled an
