Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110278291Protection Cap Assembly with Leak Detection Capability for a Pressiruzed Valve - A protective cap assembly for a pressurized valve adapted to detect a leak therethrough. In accordance with various embodiments, the cap assembly includes a body adapted for placement in fluid communication with the valve, and a sensory indicator supported by the cap assembly body to provide human sensory indication of pressurized fluid leaking from the valve in its closed position. In various embodiments, the sensory indicator can be a whistle that makes an audible sound, a light emitting device that emits a visible light, or both. In further embodiments, the cap assembly body can be coupled to the vent conduit via a tether, and ejected responsive to exhausted pressurized fluid when the valve transitions to the open position. The displaced cap assembly body serves as a visual indication that the valve has opened.11-17-2011

20090185346Electrical enclosure cooling structure assembly and method - An electrical enclosure assembly comprises an enclosure having walls defining an interior space for housing electrical components and having a front flange surrounding a front opening. A cover is hingedly mounted to the enclosure for selectively closing the front opening. The cover comprises a front wall larger than the front opening and a rearwardly extending peripheral rim. Cooling structure is integrally formed on an interior surface of the cover proximate the peripheral rim. The cooling structure comprises a plurality of spaced apart cooling ribs each having a shoulder engaging the enclosure front flange when the cover is in a closed position to provide an air flow path between the interior space and outside of the enclosure through spaces between the cooling ribs.07-23-2009

20100132374TURBINE FRAME ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE - A turbine frame assembly for a gas turbine engine includes: (a) a turbine frame including: (i) an outer ring; (ii) a hub; (ii) a plurality of struts extending between the hub and the outer ring; (b) a two-piece strut fairing surrounding each of the struts, including: (i) an inner band; (ii) an outer band; and (iii) an airfoil-shaped vane extending between the inner and outer bands; (d) a plurality of nozzle segments disposed between the outer ring and the hub, each nozzle segment being an integral metallic casting including: (i) an arcuate outer band; (ii) an arcuate inner band; and (ii) an airfoil-shaped vane.06-03-2010
20100135777SPLIT FAIRING FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE - A fairing for a structural strut in a gas turbine engine includes: (a) an inner band; (b) an outer band; (c) a hollow, airfoil-shaped vane extending between the inner and outer bands; (d) wherein the fairing is split along a generally transverse plane passing through the inner band, outer band and vane, so as to define a nose piece and a tail piece; and (e) complementary structures carried by the nose piece and the tail piece adapted to secure the nose piece and the tail piece to each other.06-03-2010
20100135786INTEGRATED SERVICE TUBE AND IMPINGEMENT BAFFLE FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE - A service tube apparatus for a gas turbine engine includes a service tube assembly having: (a) an elongated, hollow service tube; and (b) a service tube baffle surrounding the service tube which is pierced with a plurality of impingement cooling holes.06-03-2010
20100319352PRECHORDED TURBINE NOZZLE - A turbine nozzle includes radially inner and outer bands integrally joined to opposite ends of an airfoil. The outer band has forward and aft hooks extending radially outwardly at axially opposite ends. And the hooks have different prechorded circumferential curvatures.12-23-2010
20110206502TURBINE SHROUD SUPPORT THERMAL SHIELD - A turbine shroud assembly includes an annular thermal shield around an annular shroud support. A honeycomb layer is attached to the shroud support along an inner side of the honeycomb layer and a heat shield is attached to an outer side of the honeycomb layer. The honeycomb layer may be brazed to the shroud support and the heat shield may be brazed to the honeycomb layer. A lip may depend inwardly from a forward end of the heat shield and an axial extension may extend beyond an aft end of the honeycomb layer. The thermal shield may be segmented. The shroud assembly may include axially spaced apart first and second stage thermal shields circumferentially disposed around an annular shroud support and may be incorporated in a high pressure turbine including first and second stage shrouds coupled to shroud hangers that are inwardly supported by hooks of the shroud support.08-25-2011
