  • Air turbine starter with spark mitigation screen
    Patent number: 10941710
    Abstract: An air turbine starter for starting an engine, comprising a housing defining an inlet, an outlet, and a flow path extending between the inlet and the outlet for communicating a flow of gas there through. A turbine member is journaled within the housing and disposed within the flow path for rotatably extracting mechanical power from the flow of gas. A gear train is drivingly coupled with the turbine member, a drive shaft is operably coupled with the gear train, and an output shaft is selectively operably coupled to rotate with the engine. A screen is located within the interior between the at least one turbine member and the set of outlets and adapted to mitigate ejection of ignited particles from within the housing.
