A bushing apparatus includes: a housing with first and second ends, the housing having an outer bore passing therethrough from the first end to the second end, wherein the bore includes a reduced-diameter band located between the first and second ends; and a bushing received in the outer bore, the bushing having first and second ends and an inner bore passing therethrough from the first end to the second end of the bushing, wherein the bushing includes an outer surface having a reduced-diameter groove located between the first and second ends, wherein the band is received in the groove in a radially overlapping relationship, so as to block movement of the bushing relative to the housing.

A gas turbine engine includes a blade track, a support assembly, and a seal system. The blade track is arranged around a central axis of the gas turbine engine to direct gasses through the gas turbine engine. The support assembly is arranged around the blade track to support the blade track relative to the central axis. The seal system is configured to block fluid communication between pressurized cavities formed in the support assembly.

A vane of a turbine engine blade includes a first portion of structural resistance formed by two end portions including the leading and trailing edges and end strips of the lower surface and the upper surface, and of a core joining them. Two other portions of the blade are constructed of light material, composite for example, between the end portions to reconstitute the complete vane. The core has an oblique or diagonal extension between the end portions.

A method of producing a composite metal article and/or a composite metal wear component. The method including the following steps: casting a component composed of a host metal composition wherein one or more cavities are formed in the component during casting; inserting a wear resistant composition in solid form into the one or more cavities formed in the component composed of the host metal composition; and, bonding the wear resistant composition into the one or more cavities of the component composed of the host metal composition to form the composite metal article.

A method for fabricating a cast component with a cooling channel is provided. The method includes forming a shell mold over a pattern-ceramic matrix composite (CMC) elongated core arrangement to define a cavity in the shell mold. The pattern-CMC elongated core arrangement includes a pattern-forming material with a CMC elongated core disposed therein. The pattern-forming material in the cavity is replaced with metal via a casting process to form the cast component with the CMC elongated core disposed therein defining the cooling channel. The CMC elongated core is removed from the cast component to open the cooling channel for fluid communication.

An airfoil vane assembly includes a vane piece defining a first vane platform, a second vane platform, and a hollow airfoil section joining the first vane platform and the second vane platform. The first vane platform defines a collar projection therefrom. A spar piece defines a spar platform and a spar extends from the spar platform into the hollow airfoil section. The spar platform includes a radial opening defined by first and second axial faces. The radial opening is configured to receive the collar projection, and a groove in the first axial face. A seal is situated in the groove. The seal seals against the collar projection and a biasing member is configured to bias the seal towards the collar projection. A method of assembling a vane is also disclosed.

A damper seal received in a cavity of a turbine blade includes a central body with two ends and a two sides. A portion extends from each end, one side has a faceted edge, and a projection extends from the other side to receive a lug of the turbine blade to align the damper seal relative to the turbine blade.

An internally cooled component of a gas turbine engine is provided. The component may include a cooling passage at least partially defined by a first wall and a second wall with a first pedestal extending from the first wall to the second wall. The first pedestal may have a chevron geometry. A second pedestal may extend from the first wall to the second wall and also have a chevron geometry. A gap may be defined by the first pedestal and the second pedestal with the gap oriented between the first pedestal and the second pedestal.

The invention relates to a turbomachine assembly (1) comprising a fan (2) and a booster drum-type part (3), the fan (2) comprising:—blades (20) comprising an airfoil (23) and an extension (30) mounted on and attached to the trailing edge (25) of the airfoil (23),—a fan (2) disc (10) and—a series of inter-blade platforms (16), the extension (30) of each blade (20) extending beyond the downstream face (14) of the fan (2) disc (10) in the direction of the upstream edge (4) of the part (3) and covering, at least partially, the cavity (6) between the fan (2) and the part (3).

A rotary machine includes a machine stator and a machine rotor rotatable relative to the machine stator and having a metal shaft portion, a composite impeller portion, and at least a first metal ring portion securing the composite impeller portion to the metal shaft portion, the metal ring portion having a first interface with the composite impeller portion and a second interface with the metal shaft portion.
