Patent number: 10216867Abstract: A method for modeling at least part of a non-axisymmetric surface (5) of one portion (2) of a part (1). The portion (2) is bounded by first and second extremal planes (PS, PR). The method includes processing data from a device (10), by: (a) modeling at least two basic non-axisymmetric surfaces (Sk, SI, SE) making up the surface, each of the basic surfaces (Sk, SI, SE) extending between both extremal planes (PS, PR) of the portion (S); (b) constructing at least one connection curve (CR) tangential to the first and second surfaces; (c) locally modifying the first and second basic surfaces (Sk, SI, SE) to keep to the connection curve (CR) near a discontinuity; and (d) restoring, at least part of the obtained surface (5).Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2014Date of Patent: February 26, 2019Assignee: SAFRAN AIRCRAFT ENGINESInventors: Damien Joseph Cellier, Vincent Perrot, Matthieu Jean Luc Vollebregt, Nicolas Jean Fernand Pignier

Patent number: 10024336Abstract: A compressor for a turbine engine, including: a casing, at least one compressor stage including an impeller having stationary blades and an impeller having moving blades positioned downstream of the stationary blade impeller, and cavities in a thickness of the casing that are disposed along a circumference of the casing opposite the moving blades. The cavities, which are elongate and extend along a main direction of orientation, are closed upstream and downstream by upstream and downstream faces respectively, and an upstream border and a downstream border are formed at the intersections between same and the casing. The cavities are offset in relation to the moving blades to overlap the moving blade impeller in the upstream portion, thereby covering the upstream end thereof. The downstream border of the cavities is oriented parallel to the chord at the head of the moving blade.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2013Date of Patent: July 17, 2018Assignee: SNECMAInventors: Thierry Jean-Jacques Obrecht, Celine Ghilardi, Vincent Perrot

Patent number: 9677404Abstract: A one-block bladed disk includes blades, a leading edges of which has sweep and dihedral angles, both strongly variable and increasingly large upon approaching a connection to a hub to improve mechanical strength of the whole and obtain good distribution of gas flow over the height of the blade.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2012Date of Patent: June 13, 2017Assignee: SNECMAInventors: Didier Merville, Lucie Galons, Vincent Perrot, Hanna Reiss

Patent number: 9650896Abstract: A turbine engine blade, including an airfoil which extends radially between a blade root and an airfoil tip, axially between a leading edge and a trailing edge, and tangentially between a pressure side and a suction side, the profile of the blade having a series of basic profiles, in a form of a vane section, stacked on one another along a stacking line connecting the center of gravity of all the vane sections. The projection of the stacking line of the airfoil on at least one plane extending radially from the blade root includes a double tangential inversion of the direction of the curvature thereof, located in the last thirty percent of the height of the airfoil, the projection plane being positioned substantially perpendicular to the chord of the blade.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2011Date of Patent: May 16, 2017Assignee: SNECMAInventors: Agnes Pesteil, Vincent Perrot

Patent number: 7346899Abstract: In an embodiment of the present invention, at a Deployer level, an application software component is provided with a tree representation 510 of objects it contains. An object is a leaf node, with the attributes of the object being in nexus between the root and the leaf node. An accessor object 511 has methods to access the tree 510. In one embodiment of the present invention, at an administrator level, a handler object 611 in turn accesses accessor object 511. Handler object 611 may be part of a handler home object 619. Client applications 710 have lookup services 711 to access handler objects like 611, e.g. via a lookup home object 719, and handler home object 619.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2003Date of Patent: March 18, 2008Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Christophe Ebro, Vincent Perrot, Daniel Lutoff
