Line element with damping element

A line element includes an inner element, an outer element surrounding the inner element, and a damping element arranged between the inner element and the outer element. The damping element can be made, for example, of knitted wire fabric or a stripwound hose. The damping element can be made in particular of a more easily wearing material than the outer element and/or the inner element, for example of copper.

HYPERBOLOID (CONCAVE) BELLOWS
20230129472 · 2023-04-27 ·

The hyperboloid (or concave) exhaust bellows includes a plurality of convolutions of varying heights arranged in a hyperboloid (or concave) configuration. The hyperboloid bellows has increased strength and resiliency in high stress environments due to the hyperboloid configuration of the convolutions. The hyperboloid bellows allows for increased lateral movement in the same axial space or envelope compared to the prior art. The hyperboloid bellows having the hyperboloid shaped expansion joint produces an excessive amount of lateral motion using a single ply to multi-plies metal expansion joint bellows.

CONNECTING DEVICE

A connecting device (1) for a line system for passing through charged particles, the connecting device (1) having first and second flanges (2, 4) and a bellows (6). The first flange (2) and the second flange (4) are connected to each other with the interposition of the bellows (6), and the first flange (2) and the second flange (4) are movable relative to one another to compensate for displacements in the line system in a longitudinal direction (7) and in at least one transverse direction (8) angled relative thereto. A line element (10) is arranged inside the bellows (6) and connects the flanges (2, 4) electrically conductively to one another. The line element (10) is movably mounted in or on both connection elements (13, 14) of the two flanges (2, 4), and/or the line element (10) has at least one annular spring (15) or at least one helical spring (16).

Radially flexible flange joint for exhaust manifold

A radially flexible connection joint for a gas turbine engine includes an exhaust manifold flange operatively coupling an exhaust cylinder to an exhaust manifold of the gas turbine engine. The exhaust cylinder includes a cylindrical flange that extends radially outwardly from a rotation axis of the gas turbine. The cylindrical flange defines a downstream axial face. The exhaust manifold is positioned downstream from the exhaust cylinder. The exhaust manifold includes an upstream edge. The exhaust cylinder and the exhaust manifold are substantially coaxial with the rotation axis of the gas turbine. The exhaust manifold flange has a bellows portion that extends radially between the cylindrical flange of the exhaust cylinder and the upstream edge of the exhaust manifold. The bellows portion permits relative radial motion of the exhaust cylinder and the exhaust manifold.
