Patent number: 12188363Abstract: An air turbine starter that includes a housing. The housing can circumscribe a turbine coupled that is coupled to a gear train in a gear box via a drive shaft. The gear train can couple to an output shaft via at least a carrier. The air turbine starter can include at least a first bearing assembly and a second bearing assembly to rotatably support the drive shaft and the output shaft.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2024Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: Unison Industries, LLCInventors: Amit Arvind Kurvinkop, David Raju Yamarthi, David Allan Dranschak, Brian Christopher Kemp, Marc David Zinger, Parmeet Singh Chhabra, Roberto Karpik, Eliel Fresco Rodriguez

Patent number: 11920672Abstract: An air turbine starter that includes a housing with a divider structure dividing the housing into a wet chamber and an air chamber. The air turbine starter further including a bearing assembly, a turbine member, a first drive shaft, and a second drive shaft connecting the turbine member with a rotating assembly. A lubricant supply portion having at least one supply inlet fluidly coupled to the wet chamber and at least one supply outlet fluidly coupled to the bearing assembly whereby lubricant from the wet chamber can be supplied to the bearing assembly.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignees: Unison Industries, LLC, General Electric CompanyInventors: Roberto Karpik, Eliel Fresco Rodriguez, David Allan Dranschak, Shiloh Montegomery Meyers, Marcin Bialas

Patent number: 11668244Abstract: An air turbine starter for starting an engine, comprising a housing defining an inlet, an outlet, and a flow path extending between the inlet and the outlet for communicating a flow of gas there through. A turbine member is journaled within the housing and disposed within the flow path for rotatably extracting mechanical power from the flow of gas and a gear train is drivingly coupled with the turbine member. A drive shaft is operably coupled with the gear train, and a decoupler is selectively coupled to the drive shaft for decoupling the air turbine starter from the engine.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2021Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignees: UNISON INDUSTRIES, LLC, GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANYInventors: Roberto Karpik, Subrata Nayak, David Allan Danschak, Shiloh Montegomery Meyers, Sharad Pundlik Patil, Eliel Fresco Rodriguez
