  • Patent number: 10012146
    Abstract: A turbojet comprising a low-pressure compressor, a high-pressure compressor and a bleeding system configured to bleed air in the turbojet and to deliver the air to an air system. The bleeding system comprises a first air intake configured to bleed air at low pressure, a second air intake configured to bleed air at high pressure, a first valve and a second valve having inlets connected to the first air intake, a compressor having an inlet connected to an outlet of the second valve, a high-pressure valve connected to the second air intake, a control valve connected to the air system, and a controller to control opening and closing of the valves depending on a pressure at the first air intake.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9885284
    Abstract: A turbojet comprising a high-pressure compressor with several compression stages in which the pressure rises in a direction of air flow, from a low pressure to a high pressure, passing through intermediate pressures, and a system to bleed air in the turbojet and deliver the air to an air system. The bleeding system comprises a first air intake to bleed air at low pressure, a second air intake to bleed air at an intermediate pressure, a first valve and a second valve having inlets connected to the first air intake, a compressor having an inlet connected to the second valve outlet, a high-pressure valve connected to the second air intake, and a control valve connected to the air system, and a controller to control the opening and closing of the valves depending on the pressures at the first and second air intakes.

  • Patent number: 8919096
    Abstract: A control system for controlling a plurality of distinct functions of a turbojet engine, each function being associated with a respective actuation device. The system includes: an electric motor adapted to supply mechanical energy to each of the actuation devices; an electronic control unit for the electric motor; and at least one switching device interposed between the motor and the actuation devices, the switching device(s) serving to distribute the mechanical energy supplied by the electric motor selectively to one of the actuation devices.

  • Patent number: 8275507
    Abstract: The method of the invention for monitoring a thrust reverser of a turbojet having an actuator controlled by an electric motor consists in determining a maintenance notice from a weighted combination of provisional notices, each provisional notice relating to a category of parameters associated with at least one phase of an operating cycle of the reverser, the category being selected from a category of parameters representative of a duration of said phase, of an energy seen by the motor during said phase, of a torque seen by the motor at a predefined instant of said phase, and of a duration during which the setpoint speed of rotation and the measured speed of rotation of the motor differ during said phase, each provisional notice being generated by analyzing values obtained during at least one cycle for at least one parameter of said category relative to a degradation threshold.
