  • Crack controlled resin insulated electrical coil
    Patent number: 7982133
    Abstract: An electrically insulated coil assembly for use in a high vibration environment, such as with an aircraft engine, includes a coil of metal wires encompassed by a resin base matrix. A fabric is embedded in the resin matrix near an outer surface of the resin base matrix to divide a thin layer of the resin base matrix into a plurality of segments. In an embodiment, a notch blunting additive is provided in the resin to impede crack propagation.
    Type: Grant

  • Hydrostatic flow barrier for flexible fuel manifold
    Patent number: 7568344
    Abstract: A fuel manifold segment (34) for gas turbine engines comprises a polymer tube (48) surrounded by a metallic braid layer (50). A hydrostatic flow barrier (56) is provided for preventing the polymer material of the tube (48) from flowing through the metallic braid layer (50) at with a location of a joint with a tube fitting (42) under an elevated temperature and compressed condition.
