Pump housing with an interior for accommodating a pump rotor
In a pump housing having an interior for accommodating a pump rotor, which may be transferred from a radially compressed state into a radially expanded state, and comprises a housing skin revolving in circumferential direction, as well as at least one reinforcement element, a stretch-resistant element revolving in circumferential direction is provided, which is stretched less than 5% in the expanded state as opposed to the force-free state in circumferential direction, and which limits any further expansion of the pump housing in radial direction.
Temperature destratification systems
A temperature destratification assembly can include an outer housing. An impeller can be positioned within the outer housing between the inlet and outlet of the outer housing. The impeller can have an impeller hub and a plurality of impeller blades extending radially outward from the impeller hub. The assembly can include an impeller motor configured to rotate the impeller blades about an axis of rotation. A stator can be positioned within the outer housing between the impeller and the outlet of the outer housing. The stator can include a plurality of vanes. The stator vanes can include an upstream edge at the upstream end of the stator, a first surface extending from the upstream edge to the downstream edge of the vane, and a second surface opposite the first surface and extending from the upstream edge to the downstream edge of vane. A plurality of the vanes can have a downstream edge at the outlet of the outer housing.
COMPRESSOR WITH CASING TREATMENT
A casing treatment for a compressor includes one or more cavities in a casing disposed radially outwardly of tips of the compressor rotor blades. A liner is moveable relative to the casing between a first position and a second position. The liner is shaped to add a volume to the tip clearance gap when moving from the second position toward the first position. The liner is displaceable between the first and second positions in coordination with at least the rotation of inlet guide vanes (IGVs) between IGV positions.
Containment system for gas turbine engine
A containment system for a gas turbine engine includes an outer containment ring having a first projection that extends radially inward and an inner containment ring having at least a second projection that extends radially outward toward the outer containment ring. The second projection is offset and spaced apart from the first projection to define a chamber in a first state. The containment system includes a lattice defined within the chamber that spans the chamber, and the lattice is integrally formed with each of the outer containment ring and the inner containment ring. A density of the lattice varies in at least one of an axial direction and a radial direction. The second projection is configured to interlock with the first projection in a second state.
MICRO FAN
A micro fan is provided. The micro fan includes a rotor and a stator. The stator includes a plurality of axial induced coil units and a circuit board. The axial induced coil units are respectively preformed as a plurality of stator magnetic pole units, and are coupled to the circuit board. At least one of the coil units includes a coil and insulation material. The insulation material is block-shaped and covers at least a portion of the coil, and the central axis of the coil is parallel to the shaft of the rotor.
BLOWER DEVICE
A blower device includes a pair of fans, a housing, and a lid. The pair of fans generates an airflow on one side in the axial direction along the central axis and is coaxially arranged. The housing has a tubular shape extending along the central axis, accommodates the pair of fans, and has two end surfaces opened in the axial direction. The lids cover axial end surfaces of the housing and provide ventilation. The lid includes an annular portion in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the housing and including a through hole penetrating in the radial direction. The housing includes an engagement protrusion that protrudes radially inward from the inner peripheral surface and engages with the periphery of the through hole.
Fan device
A shroud unit has multiple stay members for supporting an electric motor, which rotates a fan unit having multiple blade members. Each of the blade members is inclined with respect to a radial direction of the fan unit in a predetermined circumferential direction. The stay members include a first stay member and multiple second stay members. Each of the second stay members is inclined with respect to the radial direction in a circumferential direction opposite to the predetermined circumferential direction. The first stay members is inclined with respect to the radial direction in the predetermined circumferential direction. The first stay member is located at a position overlapping with one of air-flow areas of a circular opening formed in the shroud unit, when viewed it in a direction along a rotational center axis of the electric motor. A flow amount of the air passing through the air-flow area of the circular opening having the first stay member is smaller than a flow amount of the air passing through another air-flow area of the circular opening having the second stay member.
