    Abstract: A shaft and sleeve assembly of a gas turbine engine includes an outer shaft extending about an engine central longitudinal axis and having a radially inner shaft surface. The radially inner shaft surface has a shaft groove define therein. A sleeve is located radially inboard of the radially inner shaft surface. The sleeve includes a sleeve groove defined in a radially outer sleeve surface. The sleeve groove is formed at an axial location between a first axial end and a second axial end of the sleeve. A retaining element is installed in the shaft groove and the sleeve groove to retain the sleeve relative to the outer shaft. The sleeve includes one or more sleeve openings formed therein, and the sleeve groove is aligned with the one or more sleeve openings.

    Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes, among other things, a fan, a fan drive gear system that is coupled with the fan and a fan drive input shaft, a compressor section that includes a first compressor and a second compressor, and a turbine section. The turbine section includes a first turbine coupled with a first shaft and a second turbine coupled through a second shaft to the second compressor. A bearing supports the fan drive input shaft. The bearing is located proximal to, and radially spaced from, a forward end of the first shaft. The bearing includes a speed sensor target that is rotatable with the forward end and that defines a rotation path. A speed sensor probe is situated proximal to the rotation path and is operable to read the speed sensor target.

    Abstract: A fan drive gear system for a turbofan engine is disclosed and includes a gear assembly and a front center body. The front center body is an annular case that supports the gear assembly. The front center body includes a passage portion that defines a portion of a core flow path, a forward flange configured for attachment to a first case structure forward of the front center body, and a gutter portion disposed on a radially inner side of the front center body for collecting lubricant exhausted from the geared assembly.
