  • Patent number: 11542891
    Abstract: The invention relates to a nubomachine with a longitudinal axis, comprising two, respectively upstream (122) and downstream, coaxial outer propellers (122), characterised in that at least some of the blades (148) of the upstream propeller (122) comprise at least one internal air circulation chimney (150) that communicates with air-bleeding openings (152) in tire boundary layers of the blades (148), and communicates with air outflow openings (158) on the radially outer end thereof, the air-bleeding openings (152) leading to opening inlets (152a) on tire passive surfaces (156) of the blades (148), the inlets (152a) of the air-bleeding openings being radially arranged in an area (H1) contained between 10% and 45% of the radial dimension (H2) of the blades (148), measured above turd from the radial height of the blades for which the tangent of the leading edge (138) of the blades is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis, and the inlets (152a) of the air bleeding openings being arranged in an area contained between

  • Patent number: 9435214
    Abstract: A device for setting a turbomachine propeller blade is provided. The setting device includes a first disc and a second disc respectively provided with first and second coupling devices, the first and second discs being coaxial; and a system for tilting at least one of the first and second discs with respect to the other. During a tilting of at least one of the first and second discs with respect to the other, the coupling distance of the at least one blade on the first and second discs remains constant, bringing about the rotation of the at least one blade.

  • Publication number: 20140099202
    Abstract: The main subject matter of the invention is a device (1) for setting a turbomachine propeller blade (2), characterised in that it comprises a first disc (3) and a second disc (4) respectively provided with first (5) and second (6) coupling means, the first (3) and second (4) discs being coaxial, means of tilting (9, 10, 11, 12) at least one of the first (3) and second (4) discs with respect to the other, the device (1) being configured so that, during a tilting of at least one of the first (3) and second (4) discs with respect to the other, the coupling distance (D) of said at least one blade (2) on the first (3) and second (4) discs remains constant, bringing about the rotation of said at least one blade (2).
