Abstract: A system of a flexible outer bearing sleeve of an elastomer bearing and a bearing tube, wherein the outer bearing sleeve and the bearing tube are specified so that the outer bearing sleeve is press-fitted in the bearing tube along a press-fitting direction to establish a form-fitting interconnection between the outer bearing sleeve and the bearing tube, wherein the outer bearing sleeve has an external profile having outward-projecting shoulders and introduction ramps running inward in the press-fitting direction, and wherein the bearing tube for the form-fitting interconnection between the outer bearing sleeve and the bearing tube has an internal profile communicating form-fittingly with the external profile of the outer bearing sleeve.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a guide vane assembly for a turbomachine, having an adjustable vane, which can be adjusted in order to alter an angle of attack, and an adjusting element, by way of which the adjustable vane can be adjusted, wherein the adjustable vane and the adjusting element are connected to each other in a connecting region, and wherein the adjustable vane and the adjusting element adjoin each other in the connecting region at a break edge.

Abstract: A rotor blade for a gas turbine, in particular an aircraft gas turbine, having a blade root element and a stream deflection portion adjoining the blade root element (12) in the longitudinal direction of the blade (RR); respective centroids (24) of blade cross-sectional areas of the stream deflection portion residing on a common stacking axis (26). It is provided that, starting from a first centroid (24) of a first blade cross-sectional area adjoining the blade root element (12), the stacking axis (26) extend within a cone (28) whose apex resides within the first centroid (24), and whose cone height (KH) extends orthogonally to the plane of the blade cross-sectional area; the angle (?) of the cone (28) being greater than 0° and smaller than or equal to 4°; preferably greater than or equal to 0.5° and smaller than or equal to 2°.

Abstract: A containment for a continuous flow machine, in particular for a gas turbine, is disclosed. The containment has at least one annular housing with at least one axial section of lesser radial wall thickness and at least one axial section adjacent thereto of greater wall thickness, where the housing is designed and constructed so that the section of greater wall thickness is at a distance in the axial direction of the continuous flow machine from a trailing edge of a guide vane lying downstream in the direction of flow of the continuous flow machine, and extends downstream in the direction of flow of the continuous flow machine over a leading edge of the next downstream guide vane.

Abstract: A damper (2) for damping a blade movement of a turbomachine (1), and to a method for producing the damper (2). The damper (2) has at least one side surface (21, 21?) which can be brought into frictional contact with a friction surface of the turbomachine (1) in order to damp a blade movement. The side surfaces (21, 21?) are asymmetrically convex in shape.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for adjusting a bearing array, specifically for a gas turbine aircraft engine, is disclosed. The bearing array has a first stator-side, or fixed, bearing ring and a second rotor-side, or rotating, bearing ring, where rolling elements are located between the stator-side bearing ring and the rotor-side bearing ring. Transducers are assigned to the stator-side bearing ring to determine the position of the stator-side bearing ring and actuators govern the position of the stator-side bearing ring.
