  • Patent number: 6655920
    Abstract: A spacer (36) made to be installed between two permanently connected discs (31 and 32), without a bolted flange, and comprising axial thrust (43, 47) as well as outer radial thrust (45, 48) alignment surfaces (41). It comprises moreover an outer cover (37) to provide sealing and a cooling passageway, and stiffening tongues (38) which accommodate thrust loads.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 3, 2002
    Date of Patent: December 2, 2003
    Assignee: SNECMA Moteurs
    Inventors: Bruno Beutin, Michel Brault, Pascal Gervais, Elisabeth Guigli, Monique Thore

  • Patent number: 5740674
    Abstract: The arrangement of a gas turbine engine suitable for high bypass ratio aircraft engines in which gases circulate in a primary air channel (7) and a secondary channel (8) concentric to said primary air channel, is characterized in that structural vanes (22) connecting the channel delimitation casings (2, 10, 14, 5) with each other, alternate with aerodynamic vanes (20) for guiding the gases on a common circumference of the engine bypass air channel (8), and in that the structural channels branch out between the two channels. The resulting advantages are simplicity of construction associated with a reduction in the space required for housing the channels and good resistance without notable increase of the total mass.
