Abstract:
A radial control shaft for a device for controlling the pitch of fan blades of a turbine engine having an unducted fan, is disclosed. The shaft includes an external portion that is designed to be mounted in the control device from its outside and to be coupled to at least one fan blade in order to adjust its pitch, and an internal portion, independent of the external portion, that is designed to be mounted from the inside of the control device, to be connected to a load transfer bearing in order to pivot the shaft about a radial axis, and to close an oil enclosure in which the bearing is housed, the external and internal portions of the shaft being coupled to each other. A method of mounting such a shaft and a control device including such a shaft are also disclosed.

Abstract:
Spacers interposed between blades attached to the disk of a rotor having slots and bottoms of the slots are disclosed. Each spacer is made of an elastically deformable material and at least one longitudinal segment of the spacer presents a transverse profile of arcuate shape to define two lateral contact zones.
Abstract:
The system comprises a linear-displacement fluidic actuator (22) coaxial with the propeller, and a transmission device (23) connecting the actuator to the blades that are to be controlled. Advantageously, the transmission device (23) comprises at least two radial arms (36) arranged symmetrically with respect to the actuator and connected, on the inside, to a translationally mobile part of the actuator and, on the outside, to a translationally movable rotary transmission ring (25) which is connected to the pivot pins (11) of the blades (6) by intermediate connecting mechanisms (26) that convert the translational movement of the rotary ring brought about by the actuator into a rotation of the blades of the propeller.
Abstract:
A lubrication system for a device located between an internal shaft and an external shaft of an aircraft turbine, that are free to rotate, concentric and arranged at least partially one around the other, is provided. The lubrication system includes an annular element provided with an external groove and being mounted integral with the external shaft, the external groove being supplied with lubricant from a fixed part of the turbine; and a grooved element mounted integral with the internal shaft, the grooved element having a relief which directs a lubricant in contact with its external surface along a longitudinal direction when the internal shaft is rotating. The external groove is in fluid communication with an external surface of the grooved element through at least two conduits arranged through the external shaft.
Abstract:
A turbine engine including a power gear box shaft, a turbine shaft, a connecting part of annular shape by which one end of the power gear box shaft and one end of the turbine shaft are connected in a rotationally fixed manner, a structural housing, and a guide bearing for guiding the connecting part relative to the housing, is provided. The guide bearing is mounted between the connecting part and the housing and includes an external ring mounted on the housing, an internal ring mounted on the connecting part, and at least one rolling element configured to enable the external ring to roll around the internal ring. The guide bearing is configured to form a ball joint link enabling a relative angular displacement of its external ring with respect to its internal ring.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a blower (3) including a system (1) for holding blades (2) having variable choking, the bases of which are mounted onto radial shafts (23) of a rotor (5) of the blower by means of pivots (8). Said blower is characterized in that the system (1) includes a main body (11), capable of being attached onto the rotor (5), and at least one holding arm (19, 20), mounted onto said main body (11) and capable of extending inside a pivot (8) so as to engage with same in order to lock the movement of said pivot (8) along the axis of the shaft (23) on which said holding arm is mounted. The invention also relates to a turbine engine and an assembly method.
Abstract:
The disclosed subject matter relates to a hydraulic and electrical interface ring for a turbine engine, characterized in that said ring comprises fluid transfer pipes which axially pass therethrough and having axial ends that form axial interlocking means, the supporting means of at least one electrical device, and at least one electrical linking connector of the device, said connector being configured to engage by axial interlocking with a complementary electrical connector of another part.
Abstract:
A device for controlling the pitch of the blades of a rotor is provided. The device includes a radial shaft, the rotation of which controls the pitch of the blades; a guiding bearing for guiding the radial shaft; a nut which tightens the guiding bearing along the radial axis; and a circumferential rib extending as a protrusion towards the outside of the nut, for guiding a lubrication oil towards the outside of the nut.
Abstract:
A hydraulic ram comprising a fixed support, a cylinder that is movable in translation relative to the support, a piston secured inside the cylinder delimiting two chambers with the cylinder and a device for supplying the chambers with hydraulic fluid upstream from the fixed support. The ram is characterised by the fact that the supply device comprises telescopic channels, each telescopic channel comprising two tubular elements sliding one into the other, a first tubular element being rigidly connected to the fixed support at one end and the second tubular element being rigidly connected to the cylinder at at least two points separated from each other along a generatrix of the cylinder. The invention is applicable to controlling the pitch of the blades of a turbine engine propeller.
