  • Publication number: 20100284811
    Abstract: Turbine shroud ring sector for a turbomachine intended to be supported at the upstream end by a downstream support (8) of a turbine casing (3) with circular sliding, comprising a first stop (11) able to collaborate with a second stop (12) borne by an element (13) of said turbomachine adjacent to said shroud ring in order to immobilize it circularly, said sector (4) comprising, on an end facing said element (13), a recess (10) able to allow said second stop (12) to pass to come into contact with said first stop (11), said recess being cut substantially in the form of a rectangle having, at the bottom of the recess (10), corners that are rounded in a circular arc of radius r, wherein the bottom of the recess (10) has a convex shape tangential to the circular arcs of the rounded corners and with a curvature that evolves between a radius of curvature r where it meets the rounded corners and a radius of R, greater than the radius r, at a point situated between the two rounded corners.

  • Patent number: 7520135
    Abstract: A variable-section turbomachine nozzle comprises a plurality of moving flaps, and a moving flap control system comprising control levers each associated with a respective moving flap, the control levers comprising both controlled levers that are actuated directly by actuators, and follower levers that are actuated by the controlled levers via transmission links. When the nozzle is at rest, the flaps associated with the follower levers present a radial offset relative to the flaps associated with the controlled levers.

  • Patent number: 6966189
    Abstract: A turbomachine comprising, downstream from the turbine, a post-combustion chamber defined by a thermal protection lining inside a casing defining an annular channel for a secondary flow, an annular diaphragm secured at the downstream end of said channel, said nozzle comprising a plurality of flaps hinged to the upstream end of said casing, each flap fitted on its inside face with a thermal protection plate to define a passage for cooling air delivered by said diaphragm, wherein the cooling air is provided by an annular duct defined by a first flexible annular gasket in sliding contact against the downstream inside face of the casing and against the upstream inside faces of the flaps under the pressure of the secondary flow, and defined on the inside by a second flexible annular gasket whose upstream end is fixed to the radially inner zone of the diaphragm, and whose downstream end is in sliding contact against the upstream inside face of the protection plates.
