  • Patent number: 10010976
    Abstract: A laser welding head is configured to fasten under a focusing lens for focusing the laser and including at least one annular nozzle for injecting a protective gas, and a protective chamber for protecting the focusing lens with a transverse flow of air. The annular nozzle is arranged around an unobstructed optical axis passing through the laser welding head. The chamber for protecting the focusing lens with a transverse flow of air includes air admission and air exhaust in register with the air admission in a plane substantially perpendicular to said optical axis. The laser welding head is configured to be fastened against the focusing lens without any lateral opening between the focusing lens and the protective chamber. The head presents a distance of at least 100 mm between an outlet of the annular nozzle and the protective chamber.

  • Publication number: 20120257954
    Abstract: A method and system for cooling turbine engine turbines, the system includes: at least one pair of parts to be cooled, the pair including a stator upstream from the rotor valve, and a sealing ring mounting a downstream movable blade rotor that is adjacent to the stator; a turbine casing; and an outlet path. The system further includes: at least one opening in the casing facing at least one part to be cooled; and an air circuit producing a forced convection in connection with the parts and at least one downstream outlet in the path so as to draw in and transport an ambient air flow.
