  • Publication number: 20050178887
    Abstract: The turbojet according to the invention is designed to be fixed onto the upper part of the aft section of the fuselage of an aircraft using at least one coat hanger, the turbojet comprising a fan, a forward casing, an aft casing, accessories arranged around the periphery of the forward casing, the forward casing comprising attachment points, for the coat hanger. The attachment points are arranged so that the turbojet can be installed indifferently on either side of the aircraft fuselage, accessories being arranged on the casing so that they are accessible from the outside of the fuselage regardless of which side the installation is done.

  • Publication number: 20050150970
    Abstract: The cooling system (30) for an aircraft engine (10) comprises a channel (32) that draws off cold air in the secondary air flow (200), and a heat exchanger (34) located in the channel (32) and in which hot air circulates. The channel (32) comprises: a supply pipe (322) and an evacuation pipe (326) fixed to the nacelle (324), an intermediate box (324) located between the supply pipe (322) and the evacuation pipe (326), fixed to the engine (10), and in which the heat exchanger (34) is placed. Application to cooling of hot parts (22) in an aircraft engine (10).

  • Patent number: 6655920
    Abstract: A spacer (36) made to be installed between two permanently connected discs (31 and 32), without a bolted flange, and comprising axial thrust (43, 47) as well as outer radial thrust (45, 48) alignment surfaces (41). It comprises moreover an outer cover (37) to provide sealing and a cooling passageway, and stiffening tongues (38) which accommodate thrust loads.

  • Publication number: 20030079465
    Abstract: The invention relates to a bypass turbojet comprising a primary duct, a secondary duct, a low-pressure compressor, a high-pressure compressor, and a structural intermediate casing arranged axially between said low-pressure compressor and said high-pressure compressor, said intermediate casing being equipped at its periphery with a plurality of support arms having platforms which internally delimit the secondary duct, in which bleed-off means are provided, allowing some of the gaseous stream delivered by the low-pressure compressor to be tapped off and led to the secondary duct. Said bleed-off means comprise means for tapping air from said primary duct which are arranged upstream of said intermediate casing and means for removing the air tapped from said secondary duct downstream of said support arms, these means comprising conduits arranged around said intermediate casing under said platforms.

  • Patent number: 5740674
    Abstract: The arrangement of a gas turbine engine suitable for high bypass ratio aircraft engines in which gases circulate in a primary air channel (7) and a secondary channel (8) concentric to said primary air channel, is characterized in that structural vanes (22) connecting the channel delimitation casings (2, 10, 14, 5) with each other, alternate with aerodynamic vanes (20) for guiding the gases on a common circumference of the engine bypass air channel (8), and in that the structural channels branch out between the two channels. The resulting advantages are simplicity of construction associated with a reduction in the space required for housing the channels and good resistance without notable increase of the total mass.
