Patent number: 9476307Abstract: The pattern has a pattern material and a casting core combination. The pattern material has an airfoil. The casting core combination is at least partially embedded in the pattern material. The casting core combination comprises a metallic casting core and at least one additional casting core. The metallic casting core has opposite first and second faces. The metallic core and at least one additional casting core extend spanwise into the airfoil of the pattern material. In at least a portion of the pattern material outside the airfoil of the pattern material, the metallic casting core is bent transverse to the spanwise direction so as to at least partially surround an adjacent portion of the at least one additional casting core.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2014Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: United Technologies CorporationInventors: Tracy A. Propheter-Hinckley, Justin D. Piggush, Yongxiang D. Xue, Amarnath Ramlogan, Anthony P. Cherolis, Matthew A. Devore, Eric P. Letizia
