    摘要: A support for an exhaust stack comprises a first bracket including a first base joining a first extension and a second extension, the first base being fixed to the vehicle, and a second bracket including a second base joining a third extension and a fourth extension, the second base being fixed to the exhaust stack. A member is disposed between the first base and the second base. The member has a first end and a second end. A first fastener is accepted by the first end and extends between the first extension and the second extension. A second fastener is accepted by the second end and extends between the third extension and the fourth extension.

    摘要: A sealed joint assembly for transmitting high temperature and high pressure fluid between adjoining ducts in, for example, an aircraft bleed air system, includes a gimbal ring and two annular clevises. Each clevis includes a pair of axially-extending lobes that each includes a bore hole extending therethrough. The bore holes of the clevis lobes may each align with a respective bore hole formed within the gimbal ring, through which a pin may be inserted to couple the clevises to the gimbal ring. The clevises and gimbal ring may be formed using additive manufacturing, to produce component geometries and topologies that reduce the overall weight of the joint assembly while maintaining or improving its structural integrity. For example, the clevis lobes may include a plurality of gaps, such that the remaining material forms a shear web. The gimbal ring may also include strut or truss networks to enhance structural integrity.

    摘要: A gimbal apparatus is disclosed, including a tubular envelope with a variable length between first and second rim structures. A rigid ring structure inside the tubular envelope is connected to diametrically opposite first and second portions of the first rim structure, and is connected to diametrically opposite first and second portions of the second rim structure. A spoke bisects the ring structure.

    摘要: A coupling device for joining two lines has two coupling parts that are coupled and connected together in the axial direction to connect the two lines to each other, and wherein the two coupling parts are fixed to each other via a plurality of spring-loaded coupling elements distributed in the circumferential direction of the coupling device, such that the two coupling parts are operable to be bent relative to each other with respect to a normal position by forces acting laterally with respect to the axial direction of the coupling device, and wherein the coupling elements in the bent position exert a restoring force on the coupling parts in the direction of the normal position by the spring load.

    摘要: An apparatus for reducing clearances within a flexible joint gimbal system. The apparatus comprises a washer having a centrally located hole. The washer includes a cylindrical side, wherein the cylindrical side is shaped to contact a side of a ring of the gimbal when the washer is located between a clevis of a gimbal and the ring. The washer further includes a spherical side, wherein the spherical side has a shape that enables the clevis to rotate with respect to the ring about an axis extending centrally through the hole in the washer when the washer is located between the clevis and the ring.

    摘要: The present invention provides a gimbal expansion joint for use in joining ducting. The gimbal expansion joint has a first clevis adapted to be secured to one end of a first piece of ducting, a second clevis adapted to be secured to an end of a second piece of ducting, and a gimbal arrangement to which the first and second devises are pivotably connected to form a universal joint between the ends of the pieces of ducting. The joint further has a flexible duct extending between the first and second clevises to form a passage for fluid communication between the ends of the first and second pieces of ducting. The flexible duct has a respective flange at each end. Each flange provides an axially-directed face across which a clamping load is applied to affix the flange to a corresponding axially-directed face of the respective clevis.
