Abstract: A section of a gas turbine engine includes a ceramic component and a metallic component situated adjacent the ceramic component. The ceramic component and the metallic component are situated outside of a core flow path of the gas turbine engine. The section of a gas turbine engine also includes an interface between the ceramic component and a metallic component and a mullite-based coating disposed at the interface. The coating provides thermal protection to the ceramic component and the metallic component, and provides thermochemical protection against interaction between the ceramic component and the metallic component. A gas turbine engine and a method of protecting components in a gas turbine engine are also disclosed.

Abstract: A magnetic record disk assembly includes a floppy disk located within a rigid case having integral case stiffeners, wiping force appliers and floppy disk stabilizers. Wipers made of fabric, cleaning material are located within the case and disk flexure creates frictional force between the wipers and the disk. Thus, the wipers clean contaminants from the disk during rotation thereof within the case. A simple, automatic, cam-actuated shutter covers a transducer access slot in the case. This shutter is restrained by a detent to prevent undesired movement. A modified form of shutter has a compression spring that facilitates assembly of the shutter. A write protect device is located within the case. This device includes a piece that is mounted to rotate through an arc of 180.degree. in a plane perpendicular to a side surface of the case for opening and closing a sensing aperture within the case.
