Definitions
- the present invention relates to turbomachine rotors and more particularly to the means for axially locking vanes mounted in axial pinouts of the periphery of the disc.
- a first problem consists in ensuring the axial locking of each of the blades in the simplest possible way but also as safe as possible. so that easy disassembly of a blade or the entire stage is also simplified.
- the second problem is that of the seal between the upstream and downstream of a disc and arises crucially in the compressors of turbomachines. Indeed, if the spaces located between the bottom of the disc cavities and the blade roots are not properly masked, large volumes of downstream air can pass under the blade roots and recirculate upstream of the compressor , which decreases the compression ratio thereof and causes the overall efficiency of the turbomachine to drop prohibitively.
- the blade roots comprising means for wedging the blades on the upstream face ⁇ of the disc and a rear spoiler having a transverse groove radially oriented towards the axis of the disc while the disc has a circular groove radially oriented towards its periphery
- the rotor of which comprises an axial locking means downstream of the blades on the disc, simultaneously ensuring sealing between the blade roots and the bottom of the disc cavities
- said downstream locking means of the vanes on the disc being constituted by two split segments, the first of which at least cooperates simultaneously with the grooves of the spoilers of the vanes and the circular groove of the disc, the sum of the thicknesses of the first and second segments being equal to the thickness of the grooves of the blade spoilers.
- turbomachinery of the type currently studied for example fast propeller turbojet engines whose compressor rotors have very small diameters, it is necessary to minimize the height under the platforms and to gain mass on the compressor blades, the solution above mentioned cannot be used because it is too bulky.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to replace the anterior double segmentation with a single monobloc segment. performing both locking and sealing functions.
- the subject of the invention is therefore a turbomachine rotor of the type already indicated above and which is characterized in that the locking means consists of a single split segment with Y-shaped section of which a radially external upstream branch is inserted. in the grooves of the spoilers downstream of the blades and of the disc, the downstream radially external branch of the segment being pressed against the downstream part of the spoilers of the blades.
- FIG. 1 shows a turbomachine rotor stage fitted with the locking means according to the invention according to a first variant;
- - Figure 2 shows a second alternative embodiment of the locking segment;
- FIG. 3 shows a third alternative embodiment of said segment.
- the rotor disc 1 comprises substantially axial cells 2 into which are inserted the feet 3 of blades 4 having an upstream wedging means 5 on the upstream face of the disc 1 and a downstream spoiler 6 comprising a transverse groove 7 radially oriented towards the axis of the disc.
- the latter comprises opposite the groove 7 of the blades a groove 8 radially oriented towards its periphery, which will be used for mounting / dismounting the segment.
- split segment 9 is inserted, the section of which has the shape of a Y with asymmetrical branches 9a and 9b joined together by their common pie 9c.
- the upstream flat branch 9a is inserted into the groove 7.
- the downstream branch 9b longer than the branch 9a, has a curved shape which matches the downstream shape of the spoiler 6 and which rises under the platform 10 of the blade.
- the two branches 9a and 9b can be produced during manufacture with a slight tightening so that during assembly of the segment in its location the downstream branch is pressed against the downstream face of the spoiler 6.
- the pressure coming from the __ P between the upstream and downstream of the disc combined with the centrifugal force, increases the plating of the downstream branch against the blade.
- the segment is produced by welding radially internal parts of two annular sheets of which the downstream one has a curved shape and the upstream one is flat.
- the segment is produced by folding and forming a single annular sheet, the fold of which forms the foot 9c of the Y section of the segment.
- the segment is produced by machining around a one-piece annular blank.
- the segment is assembled by placing the foot 9c of the segment in the groove 8c and compressing it radially so that the upstream branch 9a passes under the spoiler 6. Once pressed forward, the segment can be released radially so that the upstream branch 9a enters the groove 7. In operation, the centrifugal force will maintain the segment in la.gorge 7.

Abstract
Selon l'invention le moyen de verrouillage des pieds (3) d'aubes dans les alvéoles (2) du disque est constitué d'un segment fendu unique (9) à section en forme de Y dont une branche amont radialement externe (9a) est insérée dans la gorge (7) des becquets aval (6) des aubes et du disque (1), la branche aval radialement externe (9b) du segment (9) étant plaquée contre la partie aval des becquets (6) des aubes. Application à des rotors de petit diamètre.According to the invention, the means for locking the blade roots (3) in the cells (2) of the disc consists of a single split segment (9) with a Y-shaped section, including a radially external upstream branch (9a). is inserted into the groove (7) of the downstream spoilers (6) of the vanes and of the disc (1), the radially outer downstream branch (9b) of the segment (9) being pressed against the downstream part of the spoilers (6) of the vanes. Application to small diameter rotors.
