  • Publication number: 20230151773
    Abstract: The invention relates to a guide vane assembly as well as to a method for mounting a guide vane assembly of a turbomachine, including a number of adjustable guide vanes, the guide vane platform of which has a guide vane journal that is mounted in a receiving opening of a housing of the turbomachine, wherein a guide vane head of the guide vane has a bearing pin, which is mounted on an inner ring arranged on a rotor of the turbomachine. In the method, a guide vane journal, which is arranged on a guide vane platform of a guide vane, is brought into a receiving opening of a housing, which is arranged radially with respect to a rotor axis of the turbomachine, and an inner ring is provided on a rotor of the turbomachine.

  • Patent number: 10689983
    Abstract: An impulse body module a turbine stage of a gas turbine includes a holder component of one-piece construction, with a base and surrounding side walls arranged at the base, wherein the side walls and the base define a holding chamber; an insert component, of one-piece construction, which is inserted into the holding chamber of the holder component, wherein the holder component and the insert component accommodated therein define a number of mutually separated cavities, and wherein an impulse body, in particular a sphere, is accommodated in each cavity; and a closure component of one-piece construction, which is joined to the holder component in a material-bonded manner where the holding chamber is closed and the insert component is surrounded by the holder component and the closure component. The holder component has at least one base projection in the region of its base, which extends away from the holding chamber.

  • Patent number: 10570752
    Abstract: An impulse element module for a turbomachine, in particular a turbine stage of a gas turbine, preferably an aircraft gas turbine, including a single-unit receptacle component having a base and side walls that extend peripherally thereon, the side walls and the base bounding a receiving space; a single-unit insert component having a form that is inserted into receiving space of receptacle component; together, the receptacle component and the insert component accommodated therein being designed to define a plurality of spaced apart cavities; and an impulse element, in particular a sphere, being accommodated in each cavity; and a single-unit sealing component that is joined in a material-to-material bond to the receptacle component in a way that allows the receiving space to be sealed and the insert component to be surrounded by the receptacle component and the sealing component.
