  • Publication number: 20220055252
    Abstract: A preform has a fibrous reinforcement woven in one piece by three-dimensional weaving to create a fan inter-blade platform The platform includes an aerodynamic base and a fixing structure having stiffening elements that extend from the aerodynamic base. The preform includes a first fibrous part configured to form the aerodynamic base, second fibrous part configured to at least partially form the stiffening elements of the inter-blade platform, a first connection zone in which the first and second parts are woven together, and a first disconnection zone delimited by a first disconnection line extending in a transverse direction and in which the first and second parts are separated from one another. The first disconnection zone is adjacent to the first connection zone in a longitudinal direction L.

  • Patent number: 11162418
    Abstract: A turbine engine fan having an axis of revolution wherein a fan disk having an upstream face and a radial face is configured to receive a series of fan blades. An inter-blade platform wherein an upstream end, a blocking ferrule, are applied and attached on the one hand to the upstream end of the platform and on the other hand to the upstream face of the fan disk, and an inlet cone. The blocking ferrule includes a radial ring and a lug, extending axially from the radial ring and configured to form a radial abutment for the inlet cone.

  • Patent number: 11143047
    Abstract: A fan includes: a fan disc; an inter-blade platform including a base and a radial tab, a second orifice being formed in the tab of the platform; and a lock having a downstream edge configured to bear against the tab of the platform. The one among the downstream edge and the yoke of the fan disc includes a pin, the other includes a first orifice, the pin being configured to enter the first orifice and the second orifice so as to block the platform relative to the fan disc.

  • Patent number: 4177547
    Abstract: The invention relates to an automatic method for obtaining directly a moulded finished product provided with nails, e.g. clips for tubes or electric cables. The method comprises successively at a first station an injection phase in a mould defined by a fixed half-mould and a movable half-mould, a transfer phase to a second station of the movable half-mould bearing the moulded clips, a phase in which said clips are provided with nails at said second station and a phase in which the moulded clips, provided with nails are ejected, the cycle of the phases being resumed after the transfer of the movable half-mould to said first station.
