A combustion cylinder mounting method, wherein a preparation step, a first contact maintenance step, a second contact maintenance step, and a combustion cylinder fixing step are executed. In the preparation step, a combustion cylinder mounting jig equipped with a spacer portion capable of maintaining a predetermined spacing between a first combustion cylinder and a second combustion cylinder adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction is prepared. In the first contact maintenance step, the spacer portion is brought into contact with the first combustion cylinder attached to the stationary portion of a casing. In the second contact maintenance step, the second combustion cylinder is brought into contact with the spacer portion. In the combustion cylinder fixing step, the second combustion cylinder is attached to the stationary portion while the first combustion cylinder and the second combustion cylinder are in contact with the spacer portion.

The invention relates to a connecting device for an adjustable blade or vane of a gas turbine, comprising a journal element connected to a respective blade or vane and a lever element connected to the journal element, wherein the lever element and the journal element are jointly movable about a journal axis of rotation. A clamping element is provided, being situated between the lever element and the journal element, such that a force-locking connection is or can be produced between the journal element, the clamping element, and the lever element. The lever element, the clamping element, and the journal element are aligned relative to each other by means of a positioning element, the positioning element being received in a first seat of the journal element and a corresponding second seat of the lever element.

A first turnbuckle-welded portion is provided between the first nut and the turnbuckle, and a second turnbuckle-welded portion is provided between the second nut and the turnbuckle. A first rod-welded portion is provided between the first nut and the first rod, and a second rod-welded portion is provided between the second nut and the second rod.

The invention relates to an assembly for a turbine engine, comprising a radially inner shaft (3) and a radially outer shaft (7), said shafts (7, 8) being coaxial and extending along an axis (X), means (11, 15) for coupling said inner and outer shafts (7, 8) in rotation, means (22) for axially holding the inner shaft (8) relative to the outer shaft (7), means for centring the inner shaft (8) relative to the outer shaft (7), characterised in that the centring means comprise a shim (14) for radial centring and for axial positioning, this shim being frustoconical and interposed between a frustoconical centring surface (13) of the inner shaft (8) and a corresponding frustoconical centring surface (10) of the outer shaft (7).

A vane assembly includes a vane that includes an outer platform, an inner platform, and an airfoil. The outer platform defines an outer boundary of a gas path. The inner platform is spaced apart radially from the outer platform relative to an axis and defines an inner boundary of the gas path. The airfoil extends radially between and interconnects the outer platform and the inner platform.

In this method for mounting a combustor component, a component hanging step for attaching a string material to a hanging jig mounted on a combustor component and hanging the combustor component with the string material together with the hanging jig, and a component mounting step for mounting a mounting flange of the combustor component at a combustor mounting position of a gas turbine casing are executed. The hanging jig has a hanging tool having a portion which becomes a suspension point contacted by the string material when the string material is attached and hanging the combustor component. The suspension point is positioned on the distal end side of the center of gravity of the combustor component in the combustor axial line direction when the hanging jig has been mounted to the mounting flange.

Methods of manufacturing a bladed stator element for a turbomachine include mounting a tool on a circumferential zone of an annular shell prior to welding vanes in the circumferential zone, welding radially outer ends of the vanes to the annular shell, dismantling the tool after welding the vanes in the circumferential zone, and repeatedly mounting and dismounting the tool on different circumferential zones of the annular shell so as to fix the vanes all around the annular shell.

A method for shimming a thrust bearing for an accessory power take off shaft to obtain optimal meshing of bevel gears within the internal gearbox (IGB) without disassembly of the IGB is enabled by relocating the thrust bearing from the engine sump. The accessory gearbox (AGB) is driven from a power off-take from the turbine spool via the IGB. The radial position of the power take-off bevel gear is established by a radial position of the thrust bearing attached to the exterior of the casing via a housing. Candidate shims are selected from a set each having different thicknesses, the shims are formed of two halves and placed between the housing and the engine casing to adjust the radial position of the thrust bearing and consequently the power take-off bevel gear, without requiring the disassembly of the IGB.

A method and system for aligning a component within a turbine casing, and a related turbine casing. In a top-on position, a location of an optical target and another, vertically spaced optical target on the joint flange are measured. After removing at least the upper casing, the optical targets' locations are measured again, and the locations of a pair of reference points on an upper surface of the horizontal joint flange are measured. A prediction offset value is calculated for the component support position in the top-on position based on the locations. The prediction offset value may include a vertical adjustment based, in part, on a translation of a triangular spatial relationship of a number of the reference points and/or a tilt angle, a horizontal adjustment, and a horizontal joint flange surface distortion adjustment. Support position is adjusted by the prediction offset value to improve alignment.

An assembly for a turbomachine turbine includes at least one ring sector made of CMC material and a support casing including an upstream flange and a downstream flange between which each ring sector is disposed, each ring sector including a base that has a radially external face from which radially extend two lugs, the lugs of each ring sector being retained between the two flanges of the support casing by axial pins each engaged in one of the flanges of the ring support casing and in the lug of the ring sector facing said flange, the assembly further including, for each ring sector, at least one radial retaining pin screwed into the support casing and coming to radially bear against a lug of the at least one ring sector to retain it in position, and anti-rotation system for rotationally locking the radial retaining pin.
