Abstract:
A method of making a structural part having a thermal protection barrier is provided. The method includes: making a fiber structure; introducing the fiber structure into an injection mold having first and second chambers, the fiber structure being placed in the second chamber; placing a movable separator partition between the first and second chambers; injecting a first resin into the first chamber; solidifying the resin injected into the first chamber; withdrawing the movable separator partition; injecting a second resin into the second chamber containing the fiber texture; and hardening the resins present in the first and second chambers of the injection mold in such a manner as to obtain a part having a structural core made of composite material constituted by fiber reinforcement densified by an organic matrix, and a thermal barrier constituted by a layer of hardened resin.

Abstract:
In structural reinforcement for a composite blade of a turbine engine, the reinforcement being for adhesively bonding to a leading edge of the blade and presenting over its full height a section that is substantially V-shaped, having a base that is extended by two lateral flanks, there is provided an assembly of a plurality of fiber bundles that is mounted in at least one housing in the base, which assembly defines fiber content that varies along the full height of the housing.

Abstract:
A method for producing a metal reinforcement for protecting a leading edge of a compressor blade of composite, including: creating a core that has a shape of an internal cavity of the reinforcement; creating an insert made of an alloy of a hardness greater than that of the reinforcement; shaping sheet metal by stamping with the creation, upstream of the core, a cavity between the metal sheets, which cavity is configured to accept the insert, positioning the sheets around the core with the insert placed in the cavity and securing the assembly together; creating a vacuum and closing the assembly by welding; consolidation by hot isostatic pressing; cutting the assembly to extract the core and separate the reinforcement; creating an external profile of the reinforcement by a final machining operation that reveals a material of the insert.

Abstract:
A method of making a metal reinforcing member that is to be mounted on a leading edge or a trailing edge of a composite blade of a turbine engine, the method including: shaping two metal sheets, positioning them on either side of a core including at least one recess that is to form a mold for a spacer for positioning the reinforcing member, assembling them together under a vacuum, conforming them against the core by hot isostatic compression, and cutting them to separate the reinforcing member and release the core.
