ASSEMBLY, IN PARTICULAR OF ENGINE COMPONENTS
An assembly of at least two members. One of the members supports the other member, the assembly defining an axial direction, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction, an inner member of the at least two members being received radially inside an outer member of the at least two members, wherein the inner member and the outer member am attached to each other by a support arrangement, the support arrangement including at least one floating support assembly as a displaceable coupling between an inner member support point provided at the inner member and an outer member support point provided at the outer member. A displacement of support points in a radial direction results in an interrelated relative displacement of the support points in an axial direction end vice versa.
Floating support assembly for compensating for axial thermal expansion
An assembly of at least two members. One of the members supports the other member, the assembly defining an axial direction, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction, an inner member of the at least two members being received radially inside an outer member of the at least two members, wherein the inner member and the outer member am attached to each other by a support arrangement, the support arrangement including at least one floating support assembly as a displaceable coupling between an inner member support point provided at the inner member and an outer member support point provided at the outer member. A displacement of support points in a radial direction results in an interrelated relative displacement of the support points in an axial direction end vice versa.
