Patent number: 9909455Abstract: An intermediate casing comprising an inner annular hub, an outer annular barrel and an annular part for separating flows situated between the hub and the outer barrel. A primary stream is delimited between the hub and the separation part. A secondary stream is delimited between the separation part and the outer barrel. At least one hollow arm extends radially from the hub to the outer barrel, passing through the primary and secondary streams. A transmission shaft extends radially in the hollow arm. The hollow arm comprises a hydraulic-fluid outlet situated downstream of the transmission shaft. The arm further comprises a bypass channel or pocket able to bypass the transmission shaft.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2015Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: SneemaInventors: Jerome Etienne Robert Cameau, Laurent Donatien Behaghel, Kévin Michel Robert Contal, Sébastien Nicolas Juigne

Patent number: 8938975Abstract: An inner combustion chamber casing of a turbomachine, which is intended to be placed downstream of a centrifugal compressor, is provided. The casing has the shape of a disc, pierced by a central circle, and includes on its disc at least one guide vane of the drawn-off air. The guide vane extends longitudinally over the disc between the periphery of the disc and the central circle and spreads out axially from the disc so as to form with the downstream face of the centrifugal compressor a guide channel for the air which is drawn off upon exit from the said compressor. The guide vane has a curved shape orienting in a radial direction at the level of its most central end.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2011Date of Patent: January 27, 2015Assignee: SNECMAInventors: Laurent Donatien Behaghel, Frederic Dallaine, Delphine Leroux, Benjamin Philippe Pierre Pegouet

Patent number: 8764385Abstract: In an axial-centrifugal compressor, the rotor of which includes an impeller, axial play is controlled by a special air ventilation to the rotor, by a circuit including two parallel arms, flow rates of which are both controlled by respective veins, and moreover the temperature in one of them is changed by a heat exchanger. The ventilation air is thus controlled, both in terms of temperature and flow rate.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2009Date of Patent: July 1, 2014Assignee: SNECMAInventors: Laurent Donatien Behaghel, Eddy Stephane Joel Fontanel, Benjamin Philippe Pierre Pegouet
