  • Publication number: 20240093612
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a turbomachine vane made of composite material, the method including forming, by three-dimensional or multilayer weaving, a fiber blank separated across its thickness into first, second and third parts in two non-interlinked areas present at the longitudinal ends of the fiber blank, the first part located between the second and third parts to which it is connected by weaving outside non-interlinked areas, forming, from the fiber blank, a preform of the vane to be produced, by unfolding and shaping, at each longitudinal end and on either side of the first part, the segments of the second part and the segments of the third part not interlinked with the first part to form preform parts for a platform of the vane, the segments of the first part not interlinked with the segments of the second and third parts extending along the longitudinal axis, and densifying the preform.

  • Patent number: 11898466
    Abstract: A method for coating a turbomachine guide vane including a root and a tip, an extrados face and an intrados face connected to one another by a leading edge and a trailing edge, the method including completely covering one of the faces of the vane with a polymer coating of thickness (e1) provided with grooves, removing the grooves from a part of the polymer coating in such a way that the polymer coating includes a grooved zone and a non-grooved zone, coating the non-grooved zone with a coat of paint of thickness (e3) such that the thickness of the coat of paint superimposed on the non-grooved zone is substantially equal to the thickness (e1) of the grooved zone.

  • Patent number: 11795836
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a blade made of composite material for a turbine engine, in particular of an aircraft, the steps of injecting a resin in order to impregnate a fibrous preform woven in three dimensions and polymerizing the resin so as to form the blade that includes an airfoil, one longitudinal end of which is connected to a platform. The platform includes pressure and suction portions connected to the airfoil by a fillet, wherein a separation is formed in the fibrous preform between the pressure and suction portions. The method further includes reinforcing a leading edge of the airfoil; and reinforcing the fillets by integration of a metal reinforcement on at least one part of the pressure and suction portions of the platform and in the separation.

  • Patent number: 11333028
    Abstract: A turbomachine vane includes a blading made of composite material with fibrous reinforcement densified by a matrix and an integrated metal leading edge, the blading extending in a longitudinal direction, the leading edge being formed by a metal foil overmolded onto the blading, the foil having a lower wing and an upper wing which extend respectively on the lower and upper faces of the blading while matching an aerodynamic profile of the vane. One of the lower wing and the upper wing has a positioning portion extending in the longitudinal direction, the portion having a flat inner face and an increasing thickness away from the leading edge, and being housed in a correspondingly shaped groove in the blading.
