Fan having first body and second body slidable relative to each other
A fan module including a first body, a second body, a first fan assembly, a power module, and a second fan assembly is provided. The second body is slidably disposed at the first body to form a circulation space together. The first fan assembly is rotatably disposed at the first body and has sliding grooves. The power module is disposed in the first body and connected to the first fan assembly. The second fan assembly is rotatably disposed at the second body and has sliding portions, respectively and slidably disposed in corresponding sliding grooves. The power module is adapted to drive the first and second fan assemblies to rotate relative to the first body. A link module is adapted to drive the first and second bodies to relatively slide along an axial direction, so that the first and second fan assemblies are relatively separated or overlapped along the axial direction.
COMPRESSOR ROTOR STRUCTURE
Compressor rotor structure for turbomachinery, such as a compressor, is provided. Disclosed embodiments can benefit from sealing sleeves that may be arranged to inhibit passage onto respective hirth couplings of process fluid being processed by the compressor. The sealing sleeves may be affixed to adjoining structures (e.g., adjoining impeller bodies) by way of a slip fit connection to one of the adjoining structures and an interference fit connection with respect to the other adjoining structure, which is conducive to a user-friendly assembly of the sealing sleeves with the adjoining structures.
Impeller
An impeller is provided, including a metal housing, a shaft, and a plastic member. The metal housing has a shaft mounting hole. The inner surface of the shaft mounting hole includes three or more contact points, and the contact points are closer to the shaft than other portions of the inner surface of the shaft mounting hole. The shaft passes through the shaft mounting hole and is affixed by the contact points. The metal housing divides the shaft into an upper section, a middle section, and a lower section. The plastic member passes through the shaft mounting hole and is in contact with the middle section.
Rotor assembly for a gas turbine engine and method for assembling same
A rotor assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a turbine shaft disposed about a longitudinal axis, a first rotor and a second rotor configured for rotation about the longitudinal axis, and an intermediate shaft positioned radially between the turbine shaft and the second rotor. The second rotor is mounted to and axially adjacent the first rotor. The intermediate shaft is mounted to the turbine shaft on an inner radial side of the intermediate shaft. The intermediate shaft is mounted to the second rotor on an outer radial side of the intermediate shaft.

Fan module comprising variable-pitch blades
A fan module including variable-pitch blades, a fan rotor bearing the blades of the fan, each mounted to pivot about a pitch axis; a fan shaft extending along a longitudinal axis X inside the fan rotor and driving the fan rotor in rotation. A power shaft drives the fan shaft with a planetary gear speed reducer At least a first and a second bearing guide the rotation of the fan rotor, housed inside a lubrication chamber. A system varies the pitch of the fan blades, including a connecting mechanism connected to the blades of the fan and a controller acting on the connecting mechanism. The first bearing is disposed upstream of the speed reducer and the second bearing is disposed downstream of the speed reducer. The fan rotor is connected to the fan shaft by an annular trunnion extending at least along an upstream portion of the lubrication chamber.
Multi-Piece Pinion Shaft Assembly
A pinion shaft assembly for operation in a power end of a reciprocating pump includes a tubular member coupled to first pinion gear member via an interference coupling extension, possibly having a protruding alignment key operable to engage a slot formed on an inner wall of the first end of the tubular member to ensure correct rotational orientation of the first pinion gear member and the tubular member and to help prevent rotation of the first pinion gear member relative to the tubular member. The tubular member is also coupled to a second pinion gear member via an interference coupling extension, possibly having a protruding alignment key operable to engage a slot formed on an inner wall of the second end of the tubular member to ensure correct rotational orientation of the second pinion gear member and the tubular member and to help prevent rotation of the second pinion gear member relative to the tubular member.
