A retaining collar is disclosed for a bayonet mount comprising a rotor disc having a male mounting member defining a pair of apertures and an auxiliary annular wheel defining a plurality of mounting slots. The retaining collar comprises a ring-shaped body and a pair of retention pins. The ring-shaped body has a pair of circumferential end portions separated by a circumferential gap, and an arcuate radial outer surface extending circumferentially between the end portions. The body is dimensioned so that the radial outer surface frictionally engages a radial inner surface of a cylindrical male mounting member in the bayonet mount. The pair of retention pins each extend radially outward from one of the circumferential end portions. Each of the retention pins are dimensioned to extend radially outward from the body through one of said apertures and one of said mounting slots.

A turbine assembly for use with a gas turbine engine includes a bladed wheel assembly, a vane assembly, and an inner seal. The bladed wheel assembly is adapted to interact with gases flowing through a gas path of the gas turbine engine. The vane assembly is located upstream of the bladed wheel assembly and adapted to direct the gases at the bladed wheel assembly. The inner seal is configured to block gases from passing around the vane assembly.

A gas turbine engine rotary assembly comprises a disc mounted for rotation about an axis and having a first bayonet feature, a cover mounted to the disc; and a retaining ring having a second bayonet feature engaged with the first bayonet feature of the disc.

The disclosed subject matter concerns with an apparatus for mounting a ceiling fan to a support surface such as a ceiling. The apparatus includes a mounting bracket configured to support the ceiling fan; at least one bracket engaging surface; a canopy cover configured to be detachably mounted to the mounting bracket such that the ceiling fan is disposed below the canopy cover; and at least one cover engaging surface configured to move along the bracket engaging surface in a mounting direction. The apparatus further includes an arresting mechanism, operable as a result of the canopy cover having been moved relative to the mounting bracket in the mounting direction to a required extent, configured to releasably restrict movement of the cover engaging surface relative to the bracket engaging surface in a direction opposite to the mounting direction.

The present disclosure is related to turbine wheel assemblies for gas turbine engines. Such turbine wheel assemblies may include ceramic matrix composite airfoil components mounted with different types of coupling to a central disc.

A fan for a gas turbine engine is provided. The fan includes a plurality of fan blades, a disk, and a trunnion mechanism for attaching the fan blades to the disk. The disk can be formed of a plurality of individual disk segments, with the trunnion mechanism attaching one of the plurality of fan blades to a respective disk segment. A retention member is also provided. The retention member includes a means for catching a portion of the trunnion mechanism should a primary attachment system of the trunnion mechanism fail.

An assembly for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first annular case that has a first body extending from a first end portion and a second annular case that has a second body extending along a longitudinal axis from a second end portion. The first end portion has a first flange. The first flange has at least one mounting assembly. The at least one mounting assembly has a first aperture dimensioned to receive a fastener and a first ramped surface that extends axially from the first aperture. The second end portion includes at least one flange that defines a receptacle dimensioned to receive the first end portion and a second aperture dimensioned to receive the fastener and a second ramped surface. The first annular case is moveable in an axial direction relative to the longitudinal axis through an axial opening of the receptacle such that the first end portion is received in the receptacle, and is rotatable about the longitudinal axis to define an interface between the first and second ramped surfaces to interlock the first end portion in the receptacle and limit movement of the first annular case relative to the longitudinal axis. A method of assembly for a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

A method for servicing a blower motor installed in a heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) assembly for a motor vehicle may include rotating a scroll housing subassembly of the HVAC assembly from an installed position to an extraction position. The method may include detaching a first securing element, the first securing element being distributed on the scroll housing subassembly and an evaporator housing subassembly of the HVAC assembly. The method may include removing the scroll housing subassembly from the HVAC assembly in a direction of extraction. The method may include that the scroll housing subassembly reaches the extraction position by axial rotation in a direction orthogonal to the direction of extraction. The method may include that the extraction position is a position at which the scroll housing subassembly is cleared for moving in the direction of extraction.

An apparatus includes a fan module and an elongated lens. The fan module includes a housing and a cover plate having a plurality of apertures. The elongated lens includes a head portion that extends through one of the apertures of the cover plate. The head portion has a first dimension and a second dimension. The aperture also has a first dimension and a second dimension. The first dimension of the head portion is less than the first dimension of the aperture and is greater than the second dimension of the aperture. When the first dimension of the head portion is aligned with the first dimension of the aperture, the aperture permits the head portion to pass through the aperture. When the first dimension of the head portion is aligned with the second dimension of the aperture, the aperture prevents the head portion from passing through the aperture.

Compliant mounting systems, devices, and methods for mounting a vehicle engine to a vehicle structure or base include a top mount, a lower mount, a center trunnion mount, and an aft mount which are configured to react forces transmitted by the engine to the vehicle structure. Metallic and elastomeric elements can provide vibrational and force isolation characteristics. Stops (e.g., snubbing elements) allow for a specific range of motion before internal mount structures contact each other to act as a conventional hard mount. Fluid elements and compressible gas-filled spaces/bladders may be incorporated to provide fluid damping behaviors to complement the metallic and elastomeric elements.
