A device for removing and/or installing an annular component, which is arranged at a position within a turbine housing, which position is accessible via an access point of the turbine housing. A method for removing and for installing a component of this type by a device of this type.

An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This assembly includes a fixed structure and a nacelle. The nacelle includes a first fan cowl and a first thrust reverser section adjacent the first fan cowl. The first fan cowl is movably attached to and arranged on a first side of the fixed structure. The first fan cowl is configured to move between a first fan cowl closed position and a first fan cowl second position. The first thrust reverser section is movably attached to and arranged on the first side of the fixed structure. The first thrust reverser section is configured to move between a first thrust reverser section closed position and a first thrust reverser section open position when the first fan cowl is in the first fan cowl closed position.

A powerplant system is provided that includes a gas turbine engine system and an actuation system. The gas turbine engine system includes a rotating structure, a stationary structure and one or more bearings rotatably mounting the rotating structure to the stationary structure. The actuation system is configured to passively rotate the rotating structure about a rotational axis during transportation of the gas turbine engine system.

A gas turbine engine includes a casing including a plurality of interconnected casing segments defining an outer surface of the casing. One of the casing segments is a gearbox segment enclosing a gearbox and having a gearbox flange extending radially outwardly from the outer surface of the casing. The engine includes a bearing housing enclosing at least one bearing and having an annular body with an inner segment disposed within the casing. The annular body having an extension segment extending radially outwardly from the inner segment to a bearing housing flange disposed radially-outwardly of the outer surface of the casing. The bearing housing flange is engageable with the gearbox flange to removably mount the gearbox segment to the bearing housing.

Disclosed is a cart (2) for transporting an aircraft engine, comprising a base frame (4) equipped with wheels (6) for riding on a floor; at least two engine arms (14, 16) extending horizontally and movable vertically relative to the base frame, structured and designed for supporting the aircraft engine; and at least two adapter arms (20) extending horizontally at a higher level than the at least two engine arms, structured and designed for supporting an adapter coupled at the top of the aircraft engine. Disclosed is also a method of transporting an aircraft engine to a test cell.

A lifting oscillating fan comprises a fan base. One side of upper end of the fan base is connected to a first telescopic rod; upper end of the first telescopic rod is connected to a second telescopic rod by a movable joint; upper end of the second telescopic rod is connected to a U-shaped support; inner walls of opposite sides of the U-shaped support are connected to a rotating rod by a rotating shaft; upper end of the rotating rod is connected to a supporting rod by a bearing; a head shaking support is sheathed on upper end of the supporting rod; one side of the head shaking support is connected to a connecting plate; the head shaking support is connected to a fan head by the connecting plate; and a connecting cylinder correspondingly connected to the connecting plate is embedded in one side of the fan head.

A primary lock system for a translating cowl thrust reverser system includes a primary lock having a housing, a lock, and a manual mechanism. The lock is disposed at least partially within, and is movable relative to, the housing and is movable between a lock position and an unlock position. The manual mechanism is coupled to the lock and is configured, in response to a manual input force supplied to the manual mechanism, to: selectively move from a first position to a second position, whereby the lock is selectively moved from the lock position to the unlock position, respectively, and selectively prevent movement of the lock out of the lock position.

A powerplant system is provided that includes a gas turbine engine system and an actuation system. The gas turbine engine system includes a rotating structure, a stationary structure and one or more bearings rotatably mounting the rotating structure to the stationary structure. The actuation system is configured to passively rotate the rotating structure about a rotational axis during transportation of the gas turbine engine system.

A marine pump may have a nozzle interface and a detachable strainer base. The nozzle interface may have an aperture for removably receiving a nozzle, and a detent channel defined therein. The detent channel may be configured to receive portion of a detent, which may be configured to contact the nozzle and hold the nozzle in place when inserted into the nozzle interface. The detachable strainer base may have a plurality of slots and a plurality of holes configured to interact with and stop particulates in a fluid passing through the strainer base.
