20090053055 | SEAL ASSEMBLY - A seal assembly ( | 02-26-2009 |
20090208775 | PROTECTIVE COATING FOR METALLIC SEALS - A composition and process for forming an electrodeposited coating comprising a co-deposit of a metal and MCrAlY particles. The composition includes a metal and a MCrAlY particles, and the electrodeposited coating comprises a metal matrix and MCrAlY particles dispersed in the matrix. In one aspect, a coating is provided that exhibits excellent oxidation resistance and tribological characteristics at high temperatures, including up to at least about 1350° F. A high temperature coating may comprise a nickel/cobalt alloy matrix comprising MCrAlY particles and chromium carbide particles dispersed in the nickel/cobalt matrix. | 08-20-2009 |
20100028075 | SEALING JOINT FOR CONNECTING ADJOINING DUCT PIECES IN A ENGINE EXHAUST SYSTEM - An engine exhaust system comprises duct pieces ( | 02-04-2010 |
20100181765 | SEALING JOINT FOR CONNECTING ADJOINING DUCT PIECES IN AN ENGINE EXHAUST SYSTEM - An engine exhaust system comprises duct pieces and a thermally expandable sealing joint for interconnecting their adjoining ends. The sealing joint comprises a tubular body including includes a first axial end portion, a second axial end portion, and a bridge portion extending therebetween. The first end portion is at least partially positioned within a female recess of the first duct piece and the second end portion is at least partially positioned with a female recess of the second duct piece. The bridge portion can extend across a gap and/or it can be positioned partially within female recesses. Upon thermal activation, the sealing joint radially expands permanently to engage the inner radial surfaces of the duct pieces. | 07-22-2010 |
20100251720 | FUEL INJECTOR NOZZLES FOR GAS TURBINE ENGINES - A fuel injector for a gas turbine engine comprises a housing stem and a nozzle, the nozzle including an internal wall in heat transfer relation with fuel flowing through the nozzle, and an external wall in heat transfer relation with ambient air. The internal and external walls have downstream tip ends that are relatively moveable at an interface due to relative thermal growth during operation of the engine. An internal insulating gap is disposed between the internal and external walls to provide a heat shield for the internal wall, and a bellows internal to the injector has an upstream end sealingly attached to an upstream portion of one of the internal and external walls, and a downstream end sealingly attached to a downstream portion of the other wall to fluidly separate the insulating gap from any fuel entering into the nozzle through the interface. | 10-07-2010 |
20110076848 | SEMICONDUCTOR PROCESS CHAMBER AND SEAL | 03-31-2011 |
20110232843 | SUBSTRATE PROCESSING APPARATUS WITH COMPOSITE SEAL - A seal for sealing an interface between a container and a lid of a process chamber. The seal comprises a first seal element and a second seal element that are arranged to seal the interface in series, with the second seal element being situated to encounter processing activity upstream of the fist seal element. The first seal element has a deflectable portion and a protrusion extending radially from the deflectable portion. The second seal element has a radially extending recess in which the protrusion of the first seal element is received. The protrusion and recess interlock to restrict separation and/or rotation of the first and second seal elements. Inclined surfaces of the first seal element interact with the second seal element to apply axial sealing forces to sealing surfaces of the second seal member. | 09-29-2011 |
20140196899 | DEGRADABLE BALL SEALER - High strength, degradable ball sealer for temporarily sealing off lower zones in a wellbore from the flow of a fluid injected into the well. The degradable ball sealer may also seal openings formed through slidable packers or sleeves received within a tubing string in the well, from the flow of a fluid injected into the well. The ball sealer includes an aluminum-based alloy matrix containing gallium, with graphitic carbon particulate and salt particulate homogeneously distributed within the aluminum-based alloy matrix. | 07-17-2014 |
