  • Publication number: 20240043114
    Abstract: A braking device for braking a wheel of an aircraft, a hub of which is mounted rotatably on an axle includes a stack of discs threaded on a torque tube which is attached to the axle and equipped internally with a heat shield extending opposite an outer surface of the hub facing the stack of discs to protect the hub from heat radiation generated by the stack of discs. The heat shield includes a tubular body which is coaxial to the torque tube and retaining tabs which are resiliently deformable and secured to the tubular body, each of the retaining tabs and an inner surface of the torque tube including additional raised portions to engage with one another so as to axially immobilize the heat shield inside the torque tube.

  • Publication number: 20230175566
    Abstract: The invention relates to a braking device (1) of an aircraft wheel, comprising a ring (15) which has a plurality of cavities (17) in which actuators (18) are fitted in order to apply a braking force to a stack of discs (11) which extend opposite the ring. The ring is provided with a heat shield (25) which extends opposite a face of the ring directed towards the stack of discs in order to protect the ring from thermal radiation which is generated by the stack of discs. According to the disclosure, the heat shield is provided with holes (26) through which the actuators extend and which have a sectional profile which is formed to reflect the thermal radiation away from the device.

  • Patent number: 11373928
    Abstract: A power assembly that has at least two power modules that each have at least one component to be cooled, for example, an electronic chip mounted on a base from which cooling elements extend. Each power module also has a hollow body with a channel for flow of a coolant fluid Each power module is mounted on each respective body so that the cooling elements extend at least partially into said channel through an opening of the body. At least one deflector is mounted in the channel between the cooling elements of the two modules so as to force the coolant fluid to flow in the zone of the channel comprising the cooling elements.
