  • Patent number: 10450954
    Abstract: An apparatus for providing foreign object debris protection and anti-icing capabilities to an air intake of an aircraft engine. The apparatus includes a frame having at least a portion configured to conduct fluids. A tube is positioned such that different portions of the frame are fluidly connected. There is a discharge outlet defined within the frame that is configured to discharge fluids from the frame into the air intake. An inlet is defined within the frame and is fluidly connected to a compressor section of the aircraft engine. In this manner, air from the compressor section of the aircraft engine can flow through the inlet, through the tube, and through the discharge outlet, to return to the compressor section of the aircraft engine.

  • Patent number: 10443447
    Abstract: A doubler attachment system is provided for fixedly coupling a strut to an engine casing. The strut includes at least one flanged end configured to mate with the engine casing. The doubler attachment system includes a doubler plate having a first radial surface and a second opposing radial surface. The first radial surface is configured to mate with and conform to a contour of the at least one flanged end of the strut. The doubler attachment system further includes at least two bolts fixedly attached to the doubler plate at the first radial surface. The at least two bolts extend radially away from the first radial surface and toward the engine casing.
