  • Patent number: 7980274
    Abstract: A dobby includes two controlled latches for coupling a drive element mounted to a main drive shaft of the dobby and an actuator element in rotation. A first resilient element resiliently biases each of the latches towards a configuration in which their respective bearing surfaces are engaged with corresponding surfaces of the actuator element. Control members are provided for moving the latches against the action of the first resilient element and that act directly on the first latch and indirectly on the second latch so as to move the first latch against the first resilient element to thereby disengage its bearing surface with a corresponding surface of the actuator element while the second latch remains in a configuration in which its bearing surface is engaged with another corresponding surface of the actuator element.

  • Patent number: 7870740
    Abstract: An afterbody for a turbojet engine is disclosed. The afterbody includes an afterburner casing, a thermal protection liner, and a diaphragm-forming assembly interposed between the liner and the casing. The diaphragm-forming assembly defines a flow area which is traversed by a ventilation stream. The diaphragm-forming assembly includes two annular plates overlapping one another, each being perforated with a plurality of apertures and being mounted on the liner and the casing respectively. The apertures jointly define the flow area of the assembly. Furthermore, the assembly is designed such that the expansion of the liner causes an angular displacement of the plate with respect to the plate, leading to an increase in the size of the flow area.

  • Publication number: 20100038377
    Abstract: According to the invention, a mandrel, provided with tabs for holding jars containing powders and for turning the jars upside down in order to empty them through the neck, is equipped with vibration generators for exciting the walls of the jar in order to shake off the powder masses adhering thereto. The method is much more efficient than even more energetic shock applications, and frequency scanning can further be advantageously applied. One application relates to an emptying step in methods for the production of nuclear fuel pellets by powder agglomeration.

  • Patent number: 7600383
    Abstract: The turbojet of the invention includes a combustion chamber, a channel for heating the gas stream, where the heating channel includes at least one device for injection of fuel into the gas stream, which includes an open chamber, with a U-shaped section, having at least one wall within which extend fuel-injection means, which inject the fuel in at least one direction. It is characterised by the fact that a cooling jacket is provided in the chamber, alongside the wall forming the base of its U-section, and the fuel injection device includes protection means interposed between the fuel-injection means and the wall, in a fuel-injection direction. Thus, as a result of the invention, the fuel injection device, which is bathed in a very hot environment, is protected against thermal shocks due to the projection of colder fuel onto its walls, and its life expectancy is therefore increased.

  • Patent number: 7581400
    Abstract: A propulsion gas exhaust assembly is presented for use in an aircraft propelled by hot gases produced along the axis of the latter by a gas generator. The assembly may include a first cylindrical duct, two second ducts, two third ducts, and two axial gas-ejection nozzles. The first cylindrical duct element receives the gases downstream of the gas generator. The gasses flow downstream from the first cylindrical duct element to two second duct elements. These two second duct elements are divergent in a first geometric plane. Each of the two second duct elements may guide the flow to their own respective third duct and nozzle. The third ducts may include elbows to assist in stealth. The nozzles may include the means to steer the aircraft.

  • Patent number: 7448415
    Abstract: A cam motion machine that includes several cams each defining at least one running track for a follower roller. Each cam is provided with a centering bore that permits mounting of the cam on a drive shaft, while elements are provided to apply a tightening force parallel to the drive shaft with a non-circular section. At least one washer-spacer, for which an internal edge is non-circular and designed to enable an axial displacement of the washer-spacer along the shaft, is fixed to rotate with the shaft and is in contact with at least one of the cams. The washer-spacer may be fixed to the cam by adherence and to the shaft by cooperation of shapes due to complementary projections provided on one of the shaft and the washer-spacer. It would be appreciate if the Examiner would indicate the acceptance of this amendment to the Abstract in the next office communication.

  • Publication number: 20070246950
    Abstract: This dobby includes two controlled latches (10, 11) for coupling a drive element (8) and an actuator element (4) in rotation. First means (19) enable each of the latches (10, 11) to be resiliently biased (F19) towards a configuration in which their respective bearing surfaces (103, 113) are engaged with a corresponding surface (84A, 84B) of the actuator element (8). Control means (13, 14) are provided for moving the latches against the action of the resilient bias means (19) and that act directly on the first latch (10) and indirectly on the second latch (11). The control means can move (C14) the first latch (10) against the resilient bias means (19) while the second latch remains in a configuration in which its bearing surface (113) is engaged with the second surface (84B) of the actuator element (8).
