  • Patent number: 11905839
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing an aircraft turbine engine housing, the housing (23) comprising: —an annular shell (29) with axis A; —an annular element (24; 253, 254) attached to the inside of the shell (29), the annular element comprising a body (25) made of NIDA-type cellular material and comprising a downstream portion (252) covered with an abradable material (26), and an upstream portion (251) without abradable material, the body (25) extending in a continuous manner from the upstream portion (251) to the downstream portion (252), the method comprising: —manufacturing the annular element in the form of a continuous annular body, —cutting the annular body into segments (253, 254), —attaching the segments to the shell, and —depositing the abradable material (26) onto the inside surface (25a) of the downstream portion (252).

  • Patent number: 11891910
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a composite-material casing for a gas turbine, includes producing by three-dimensional weaving a fiber texture in the form of a strip, winding of the fiber texture around several superimposed turns on a mandrel with a profile corresponding to that of the casing to be manufactured in order to obtain a fiber preform of a shape corresponding to that of the casing to be manufactured, and densifying the fiber preform by a matrix. During the winding of the last turn of the fiber texture on the mandrel, at least one stiffening element is interposed between the before-last turn and the last turn of the fiber texture. The stiffening element projects over the outer surface of the before-last turn of the fiber texture. The stiffening element has an axial section of omega-type shape.

  • Patent number: 11753957
    Abstract: A method for detecting at least one roughness in a face of an abradable layer in a fan casing is provided. The method includes a step of depositing on the abradable layer a first coating and a second coating covering the first coating. The first and second coatings have respective thicknesses (N1, N2) and a physical appearance that differ from one another. Local appearance of the first coating is indicative of a need for a localized touch-up, and local disappearance of the first coating and the second coating is indicative of a need for a localized replacement of the abradable layer.

  • Patent number: 11702961
    Abstract: A gas turbine fan casing made of composite material with a fibrous reinforcement includes a plurality of superimposed turns of a strip-shaped fibrous texture having a three-dimensional weaving between a plurality of layers of warp yarns and a plurality of layers of weft yarns, the fibrous reinforcement being densified by a matrix. The fibrous texture includes at least one lateral section of variable thickness in which the weft yarns have a size or a count different from the size or the count of the weft yarns of the plurality of layers of weft yarns present in the remainder of the fibrous texture.
