Abstract: A gas turbine engine mid-turbine frame includes an annular case that has a hole. A tie rod with a first end extends through the hole. The first end includes a threaded portion. A nut is secured to the threaded portion to clamp the tie rod to the annular case. A tab washer is arranged between the nut and the annular case. The tab washer interlocks the nut to the case to prevent relative rotation therebetween.

Abstract: A case for a gas turbine engine includes a cast case section cast case section configured to be welded between a forward case section and an aft case section.

Abstract: A case assembly for a gas turbine engine, includes a case with an oversized case boss, said oversized case boss including a peripheral wall that defines a first inner diameter in a first condition to receive a piston seal, and a second inner diameter in a second condition, the second condition including enlargement of the first inner diameter to form a second inner diameter and a bushing mounted within the second inner diameter, an inner diameter of the bushing defines a bushing inner diameter about equivalent to the first inner diameter to receive the piston seal.

Abstract: A turbine housing section includes a radially inner case centered on a first axis, and a radially outer case spaced radially outwardly of the inner case, and centered on a second axis. The first and second axes are offset relative to each other. A plurality of tie rods include a threaded nut received on a tie rod, with the plurality of tie rods connecting the inner and outer cases.

Abstract: A disclosed gas turbine engine includes a compressor section, a combustor section, a first turbine section and a second turbine section. An outer case structure for the gas turbine engine includes a single-piece case structure with a turbine case portion and a transition case portion. The transition case portion is integrally formed with the turbine case portion as a single part module. A combustor case houses the combustor and an aft turbine case supports the low pressure turbine. The outer case includes a forward end attachable to the combustor case and an aft end attachable to the aft turbine.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for dressing centering a bearing compartment in a gas turbine engine. A nut may be inserted through an outer case of a gas turbine engine. The nut may be coupled to a strut which centers a bearing compartment. The nut may be rotated to achieve a desired tension on the strut to center the bearing compartment. A retaining plate comprising a collar may be positioned over the nut. A swaging tool comprising a swaging ramp may be positioned over the nut. The swaging tool may be forced against the retaining plate using a draw-in bolt. The swaging ramp may contact the collar and form indentations in the collar to lock the nut in place.

Abstract: A bearing assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a bearing, an outer assembly disposed about an axis and having an angled perimeter, and an inner assembly supporting the bearing and having a surface angled to slide against and attach to the angled perimeter as the bearing is aligned with the axis.

Abstract: An assembly for dampening vibration movement between a cylinder and a concentric duct, where the cylinder is positioned radially inside the duct, includes a damper attached to the duct. The damper includes a housing attached to the duct, a contact member positioned at least partially inside the housing and having a contact surface adjacent an outer surface of the cylinder, and a cap threadedly engaged with the housing for applying a load on the contact member in a direction toward the cylinder.

Abstract: An electrical enclosure wherein an electrical component can be moved between various positions (e.g., connected, disconnected, test, etc.) without opening an enclosure door. The electrical enclosure supports a component for movement between a withdrawn position, a test position, and an inserted position. A handle is accessible by an operator from an exterior of the enclosure and is configured to move the component between the respective positions without having to open the enclosure. The handle is integral with the enclosure and thus an operator needs no special tool or other device to effect movement of the electrical component between its respective positions.
