Abstract: A platform for a bladed wheel of a turbomachine including a drum and blades of hammer-head attachment type, the foot of which is retained in a circumferential groove of the drum, having bearing and/or retaining faces cooperating with the drum is disclosed. The platform includes at least two openings spaced apart circumferentially and each able to receive the foot of a blade, whereby it constitutes a multiple-blade platform in the form of a piece separate from the blades.

Abstract: A straightener blade for a turbomachine, comprising a platform arranged at a radially external end of the blade and adapted to be engaged in a annular groove of a housing, and a threaded rod radially extending outwardly from the platform and adapted to pass through an orifice of the housing in order to receive a fixing nut, the upstream and downstream edges of the platform each comprising a protrusion extending in the plan of the platform in order to limit the rotation of the platform in the groove when the nut screwed on the threaded rod is tightened.

Abstract: The invention relates to a platform (150) for a bladed wheel of a turbomachine comprising a drum (130) and blades (120) of hammer-head attachment type, the foot (122) of which is retained in a circumferential groove (131) of the drum (130), having bearing and/or retaining faces cooperating with the drum (130). Characteristically, the platform (150) comprises at least two openings (151) spaced apart circumferentially and each able to receive the foot of a blade (120), whereby it constitutes a multiple-blade platform in the form of a piece separate from the blades (120). Applicable to a bladed wheel or a turbomachine compressor.

Abstract: A compressor system includes a pair of compressors located in a common shell. A common drive shaft drives both compressors and the drive shaft is powered by a single motor. One or both of the compressors can be equipped with a pulse width modulated capacity control system and a vapor injection system. When one compressor is equipped with these systems, the capacity can be varied between 50% and 110%. When both compressors are equipped with these systems, the capacity can be varied between 0% and 120%.
