Abstract: A blade outer air seal assembly includes a support structure and a blade outer air seal having a plurality of segments extending circumferentially about an axis and mounted to the support structure. At least two segments have a base portion extending from a first circumferential side to a second circumferential side, a first protrusion extending from the first circumferential side and having a first slot, and a second protrusion extending from the second circumferential side and having a second slot. A feather seal is arranged in the first slot and the second slot between the at least two segments such that the feather seal is pivotable between first and second positions in response to relative movement between the first and second protrusions.

Abstract: A blade outer air seal assembly includes a support structure. A blade outer air seal has a plurality of seal segments that extend circumferentially about an axis and mounted in the support structure via a carrier. The carrier has a plurality of carrier segments that extend circumferentially about the axis. At least one of the seal segments have a base portion that extends between a first circumferential side and a second circumferential side and from a first axial side to a second axial side. A first wall axially spaced from a second wall. The first and second walls extend from the base portion to a first outer portion to form a first passage. The first wall has at least one slot engaged with a first carrier hook on one of the plurality of carrier segments. At least one of the carrier segments have a carrier window engaged with a support structure hook on the support structure.

Abstract: A mandrel for a molding process. The mandrel includes a first portion that has a first draft surface and a second draft surface. A second portion and a third portion are included. The second portion has a third draft surface and the third portion has a fourth draft surface wherein the first draft surface engages the third draft surface and the second draft surface engages the fourth draft surface. A channel extends along a length of the mandrel at an interface between the first, second, and third portions such that the second portion does not contact the third portion.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a turbine section having a turbine rotor and at least one blade extending outwardly of the turbine rotor. The turbine rotor rotates about an axis of rotation. A blade outer air seal is positioned radially outward of the at least one blade. The blade outer air seal has an axially forward hook and an axially aft hook supported to static structure. An axial seal is attached to static structure forward of the forward hook, and has a sealing portion extending in an aft direction. A sealing surface member is positioned intermediate an aft end of the axial seal and a forward end of the forward hook to provide a sealing surface for sealing between the seal and the blade outer air seal.
