  • Patent number: 11053800
    Abstract: A rotor blade for a rotor disk of a turbine of an aeronautical turbomachine includes, in a radial direction from inside to outside, a blade foot root, a support, a platform and a rotor vane, where the root is connected to the support by a neck. The neck has a curvilinear profile defining, in a section in a plane perpendicular to the radial direction, a curved shape. The neck section overlaps at least 75% of the section of the rotor vane, as a projection of the sections of the neck and of the rotor vane in a plane perpendicular to the radial direction, where the section of the rotor vane joins with the platform.

  • Patent number: 10843806
    Abstract: An aircraft propulsion assembly includes: a gas generator coupled by a coupling mechanism to a thrust generator having a structural torque transmission gearbox, and a rigid cradle rigidly supporting the thrust generator in a first suspension plane and the gas generator in distinct second and third suspension planes, the cradle being for securing to a structural element of the aircraft via a vibration-filtering flexible connection.

  • Publication number: 20200141243
    Abstract: The main object of the invention is a rotor blade (18) for a rotor disk of a turbine of an aeronautical turbomachine including, in a radial direction (23) from inside to outside, a blade foot root, a support, a platform and a rotor vane (30), where the root is connected to the support by a neck (40), characterised by the fact that the neck (40) has a curvilinear profile defining, in a section in a plane perpendicular to the radial direction (23), a curved shape, and in that the said neck section (40) thus overlaps at least 75% of the section of the rotor vane (30), as a projection of the sections of the neck (40) and of the rotor vane (30) in a plane perpendicular to the radial direction (23), where the section of the rotor vane (30) joins with the platform.

  • Patent number: 10626913
    Abstract: The ball joint device (10) for suspending a turbine engine from a strut or suspending equipment on the body of a turbine engine. Said device comprises a first member (12), one end of which carries a ball joint (14) and is interposed between the two lugs (16, 17) of a second member (18), the ball joint comprising a bore (28) for the passage of a shaft (30), the ends of which shaft pass through openings (20, 22) in the lugs. A first (16) of the lugs comprises or carries first means for axially holding the shaft on the side opposite the ball joint, which means comprise a cover (52, 52?), and a second (17) of the lugs comprises or carries second means (38) for axially holding the shaft on the side opposite the ball joint.
