Abstract: A stator vane segment for a gas turbine, in particular an aircraft engine, including a plurality of stator vanes, a radially outer shroud connecting the plurality of stator vanes, with stiffening elements integral to the shroud or integrated into the shroud being disposed on a radially outer side of the shroud. The stiffening elements form an extension of the stator vanes in the radial direction, and/or that a contour of the stiffening elements on the outer side of the shroud lies within an outer contour formed by a band around a projection of contours of the stator vane at a radially inner side onto the outer side of the shroud, a width of the band in the circumferential direction around the projection relating to no more than 20% of the thickness of the projection.

Abstract: A bearing chamber housing (20) for bearing a shaft (3) of a turbomachine (1), including a housing outer shell (21) that delimits an oil chamber (33) of the bearing chamber housing (20) radially outwardly in relation to a rotational axis (4) of the shaft (3), and a housing inner shell (22) for bearing the shaft (3). The housing inner shell (22) is radially connected to the housing outer shell (21) via support ribs (23) that in each case extend axially, at least in part, and the housing inner shell (22), the housing outer shell (21), and two support ribs (23) that are next-adjacent to one another jointly delimit a cavity (41) that is axially open at the rear, and thus lead into a rear opening (32). The rear opening (32), viewed in tangential sections, has a clearance (35) in each case that constitutes at least 50% of a circumferential distance (43) between the next-adjacent support ribs (23).

Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for cleaning powder residues of an additive layer build-up method away from an at least partly additively manufactured component by a cleaning device, wherein a machine plate and the component arranged thereon are excited to mechanical oscillation during a cleaning process by a vibration actuator of the cleaning device with a set resonant frequency of the machine plate. According to the invention, before the cleaning process is carried out, a resonant frequency of the machine plate is set to the set resonant frequency by an arrangement of a mass element on a securing element of the machine plate.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for cleaning a component from powder residues of an additive layering method using a cleaning device, wherein a machine plate and the component arranged thereon are excited during a cleaning process by a vibration actuator of the cleaning device with a set resonance frequency of the machine plate to carry out a mechanical vibration. It is provided that the machine plate is excited by predefined vibration movements of the at least one vibration actuator to the predefined mechanical vibration, wherein the predefined vibration movements of the at least one vibration actuator occur in parallel to a main plane of the machine plate. The invention also relates to a cleaning device for cleaning an at least partially additively manufactured component, in particular a component of a turbomachine.
