A method for constructing a nozzle ring for a turbocharger turbine nozzle includes the steps of: providing a nozzle ring in the form of an annular flat disk, the nozzle ring having a first face and an opposite second face; forming a plurality of circumferentially spaced circular bores extending through the nozzle ring from the first face to the second face; providing a plurality of vanes, each vane having a circular vane shaft extending from one end of the vane; inserting the vane shafts respectively into the bores in the nozzle ring from said first face thereof and orienting each vane to achieve a desired setting angle for the vane; and rigidly affixing the vane shafts to the nozzle ring to fix the vanes at the desired setting angles.

A diaphragm latch may comprise a housing, a diaphragm disposed in the housing, a pin coupled to the diaphragm, an opening in the housing, and a pin aperture disposed in the first side, wherein the pin extends from the pin aperture. The diaphragm may be configured to move in response to a pressure being communicated through the opening, and the pin may be configured to at least one of extend or retract from the pin aperture in response to the diaphragm moving. The diaphragm latch may passively couple an inner fixed structure (IFS) to an intermediate case (IMC) during an overpressure event.

The invention concerns a flow straightener unit (1) for a fan module of a turbomachine, the straightener unit (1) comprising a plurality of blades (2) distributed about an axis of rotation, each blade (2) is made of a composite material and comprises an aerofoil (21) and a root (22) intended to be assembled on a hub (4) of the turbomachine. The unit (1) comprises a centring and attachment plate (3) of the blade (2) on the turbomachine intended to be attached to the hub (4) at a determined azimuthal position and to the root (22) of the blade (2), the plate (3) is designed to be screwed to the hub (4) by screws (51a) that are longitudinal with respect to the axis of rotation of the unit (1) and screwed to the root (22) of the blade (2) by screws (52) that are radial with respect to the axis of rotation of the unit (1).

A turbine guide apparatus, having multiple guide blades. Each guide blade has a first shroud and a second shroud formed on radial ends of a blade leaf having a first carrier for the guide blades. Each guide blade is fastened to the first carrier via a first shroud projection having a second carrier for the guide blades and is fastened on the second carrier via a second shroud projection. The first shroud projection is inserted into a groove of the first carrier in the radial direction and fastened in this groove via a bolt extending in the axial direction through the projection of the first shroud with radial mobility in this groove. The second shroud projection of the guide blade is fastened in the circumferential and radial direction via a pin extending in the axial direction into the projection of the second shroud and the second carrier.

A turbine wheel that retains a fixation wire to inhibit the movement of turbine rotor blades along mating grooves includes: multiple tab sections that form housing sections that house part of the fixation wire; and a wire retention pin to retain the fixation wire in the housing sections. The tab section has a pin slot extending from the radially inner end toward the radially outward side. The wire retention pin has a first pin section having a width smaller than the pin slot and a second pin section having a width larger than the pin slot. The first pin section has multiple divided pieces. The wire retention pin is arranged such that the first pin section is positioned in the pin slot and the second pin section is positioned in the housing section, and is fixed to the tab section with the divided pieces bent outward.

An engine bi-material joint includes a first flange composed of a first material and defining a first coefficient of thermal expansion, and a second flange composed of a second material and defining a second coefficient of thermal expansion. The second flange is different from the first material. An interface flange is engaged with the first flange and with the second flange. The interface flange defines a third coefficient of thermal expansion being equal to or less than the first coefficient of thermal expansion of the first flange. The third coefficient of thermal expansion is less than the second coefficient of thermal expansion of the second flange. The first coefficient of thermal expansion of the first flange is less than the second coefficient of thermal expansion of the second flange.

The present disclosure is directed to a turbomachine that includes a hot gas path component having an inner surface and defining a hot gas path component cavity. An impingement insert is positioned within the hot gas path component cavity. The impingement insert includes an inner surface and an outer surface and defines an impingement insert cavity and a plurality of impingement apertures fluidly coupling the impingement insert cavity and the hot gas path component cavity. A plurality of pins extends from the outer surface of the impingement insert to the inner surface of the hot gas path component.

A mount according to an example of the present disclosure includes a locating pin, a load pin, a fastener, the fastener configured to retain a component on at least one of the locating pin and the load pin, the fastener including a bolt, a mounting boss and a spring, the spring allowing the mounting boss to move with respect to the bolt, and wherein the bolt is held captive in the mounting boss with a captive feature. A gas turbine engine and a method of mounting a component are also disclosed.

A turbofan has a nacelle delimiting a duct for a bypass flow and comprises a fixed structure comprising a guide vane support with guide vanes, a mobile cowl able to move in translation between an advanced position and a retracted position, arms, each one being mobile in rotation between a stowed position and a deployed position and comprising a distal end and a proximal end, a flexible screen, of which an exterior edge is attached to the guide vane support rearward of the guide vanes, and wherein the distal end of each arm is fixed along the interior edge, actuators to cause the mobile cowl to move, and an operating system which moves each arm. Replacing the reversal doors and their drive mechanisms with the flexible screen and the set of rotationally-mobile arms allows a reduction in weight.
