  • Publication number: 20240117770
    Abstract: A turbomachine engine includes a core engine having one or more compressor sections, one or more turbine sections that includes a power turbine, and a combustion chamber in flow communication with the compressor sections and turbine sections. The turbomachine engine also includes a shaft coupled to the power turbine and characterized by a midshaft rating (MSR) between two hundred (ft/sec)1/2 and three hundred (ft/sec)1/2. In one aspect, the shaft has a redline speed between fifty and two hundred fifty feet per second (ft/sec). In another aspect, the shaft has a length L, an outer diameter D, and a ratio of L/D between twelve and thirty-seven.

  • Patent number: 11940032
    Abstract: A damping device that includes features for damping bending vibration of a shaft rotating about its axis of rotation and methods for damping bending vibration utilizing the damping device are provided. In one exemplary aspect, the damping device includes a damping disc operatively coupled with a shaft, e.g., of a turbine engine or shaft system. The damping disc is at least partially received within a chamber defined by a housing. The chamber of the housing is configured to receive a damping fluid. When the shaft is rotated about its axis of rotation, the damping disc is movable within the chamber to move the damping fluid such that the damping fluid absorbs bending vibration emitted by the shaft. The damping fluid moved by the damping disc dampens bending vibration emitted by the shaft.

  • Patent number: 10842238
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electronic device encasement which not only encases and protects the electronic device, it allows for storage and presentation of one or more data cards. As the encasement device operator initiates access to the stored data card by opening a protective storage cover, the accessing action initiates a subsequent mechanical response which presents the card by a separating action from the encasement and the other possible stored items, as to allow for easier access and use of the one or more data cards. The storage and presentment mechanisms include a plurality of pockets, grips, and other structures to secure and present the cards.
