    摘要: A damper element for a vibration dampening system may be used in a body opening in a rotating blade in a turbine. The damper element includes a base member having an axially fixed position within the body opening, and a spring-suspended bearing member having a spring fixedly coupled to the base member at a first end of the spring and a bearing member coupled to a second end of the spring. With the spring in an elastically extended state under influence of a centrifugal force caused by rotation of the rotating blade at higher than a predefined rotational speed, the bearing member frictionally engages a bearing surface to dampen vibration. The spring-suspended bearing member provides a friction-based vibration dampening interface that experiences a reduced impact of the centrifugal forces of the rotating blade by providing a counteracting force reduction using the spring.

    摘要: An assembly is provided for a gas turbine engine. This gas turbine engine assembly includes a split case structure. The split case structure includes a plurality of walls and a plurality of case segments. Each of the walls extends axially along and circumferentially about an axial centerline. The walls include a first wall and a second wall radially outboard of and axially overlapping the first wall. Each of the case segments is configured to form a respective portion of the first wall and a respective portion of the second wall. The case segments include a first case segment and a second case segment circumferentially adjacent and attached to the first case segment at a joint.
