FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM FOR GAS TURBINE ENGINE

A fuel delivery system for a gas turbine engine is disclosed which includes a continuously variable drive assembly having a driving portion operatively associated with a gearbox of the gas turbine and a driven portion operatively associated with a fuel pump of the gas turbine, and a governor for controlling a drive ratio of the drive assembly to vary fuel pump flow performance over a range of engine operating conditions.

THRUST REVERSER PROVIDED WITH CABLE KINEMATICS FOR SCOOP FLAPS
20220186684 · 2022-06-16 · ·

A thrust reverser includes a diverter configured to divert at least a portion of an air flow from a nacelle and a cowl movable relative to an outer fixed structure of the thrust reverser. The thrust reverser further includes at least one rotatably hinged flap. The cowl configured to move from a closure position in which it provides aerodynamic continuity of the nacelle with the flap and covers the diverter. The flap is movable from a retracted position to an opening position in which it opens a passage in the nacelle and uncovers the diverter. The flap obstructs a portion of an annular channel of the nacelle when in the opening position. The thrust reverser also includes a cable-pulley system for driving the flap. The cable-pulley system includes at least one cable associated with at least one pulley to connect the flap to the thrust reverser.

Morphing vane

A system for directing the flow of a fluid which comprises a channel for containing the fluid; an articulating vane positioned within the channel for directing the flow of the fluid, the vane comprising a fixed segment rigidly connected to the channel and a first moveable segment operably connected to the fixed segment by a first hub, the first hub configured to allow relative articulation between the segments; an actuator member operably connected to the moveable segment to articulate the moveable segment about the first hub; and wherein the vane further comprises a second moveable segment operably connected to the vane by a second hub, wherein the actuator member articulates the first and second moveable segments by applying a single moment to the first hubs.
