Description

L'invention concerne une garniture d'étanchéité disposée dans un assemblage d'aubes sur un disque de soufflante et de plates-formes intermédiaires formant ainsi un rotor.The invention relates to a gasket. seal arranged in an assembly of blades on a blower disc and intermediate platforms thus forming a rotor.

La conception la plus classique de rotors aubagés indispensables notamment dans les turboréacteurs consiste à construire séparément le disque du rotor et les aubes, et à assembler celles-ci à celui-là en engageant des pieds d'aubes dans des rainures du disque. En effet, il est souvent avantageux de produire à part les aubes, qui sont des pièces incurvées de forme souvent compliquée à réaliser.The most classic design of rotors essential cuttings especially in turbojets consists of separately building the rotor disc and the blades, and to assemble them to that one by engaging the feet of blades in disc grooves. Indeed, it is often advantageous to produce apart from the blades, which are parts curved in shape often complicated to achieve.

On se heurte alors à la difficulté d'installer des plates-formes entre les aubes pour border le disque par une surface circulaire et lisse dont la fonction est de délimiter la veine d'écoulement des gaz, car ces plates-formes sont parfois des pièces rapportées entre l'extrados et l'intrados d'aubes adjacentes, ce qui laisse subsister des jeux qui détruisent la continuité de la surface de la veine et qu'il faut donc réduire autant qu'on le peut afin de ne pas compromettre la qualité de l'écoulement.We then come up against the difficulty to install platforms between the blades to border the disc with a circular and smooth surface whose function is to delimit the flow vein gases, because these platforms are sometimes parts reported between the upper surface and lower surface of blades adjacent, which leaves games that destroy the continuity of the vein surface and that it is therefore necessary to reduce as much as possible in order not to not compromise the quality of flow.

Une conception courante consiste à produire les segments de plate-forme d'un bloc avec les aubes. Elle est exposée dans de nombreux brevets et présente l'avantage que les segments de plates-formes se joignent à mi-distance des aubes par des jonctions droites qu'il est facile de combler par une garniture d'étanchéité. L'inconvénient est que les plates-formes, dont l'extension est sensiblement perpendiculaire à celle des aubes, compliquent leur réalisation. A common concept is to produce the platform segments of a block with the vanes. It is exposed in numerous patents and presents the advantage that the platform segments get join vanes halfway through junctions straight lines that are easy to fill with a trim sealing. The downside is that the platforms, whose extension is substantially perpendicular to that of the blades, complicate their realization.

Il est d'ailleurs avantageux d'alléger le rotor en construisant ces pièces moins exposées aux efforts en matériau composite afin de les alléger, ce qui peut concerner les plates-formes et oblige alors à les séparer des aubes.It is also advantageous to lighten the rotor by building these parts less exposed to efforts in composite material in order to lighten them, this which can relate to platforms and therefore requires separate them from the vanes.

L'invention s'applique ainsi aux constructions où les plates-formes sont réalisées en tant que pièces détachées des aubes et s'étendent chacune entre une paire d'aubes en formant un jeu avec chacune d'elles, ce qui implique malheureusement que les jeux sont importants le long des aubes à cause de la complexité de la forme de celles-ci et notamment de leur courbure et la nécessité du démontage des plates-formes. Dans une série de réalisations, les plates-formes sont maintenues en position entre les aubes par deux viroles, l'une située en amont du rotor, l'autre en aval.The invention thus applies to constructions where the platforms are made in as loose parts of the blades and extend each between a pair of blades forming a set with each of them, which unfortunately implies that games are important along the blades because of the complexity of the form of these and in particular of their curvature and the need to dismantle the platforms. In a series of achievements, the platforms are held in position between the blades by two ferrules, one located upstream of the rotor, the other downstream.

En variante, l'invention peut également s'appliquer à un rotor dont les plates-formes possèdent un pied qui vient se loger dans des alvéoles usinés dans le disque.Alternatively, the invention may also apply to a rotor whose platforms have a foot which is housed in machined cells in the disc.

Des exemples de telles réalisations sont donnés par GB-A-1 331 209, qui montre des garnitures d'étanchéité occupant en fonctionnement les jeux entre aubes et plates-formes.Examples of such embodiments are given by GB-A-1 331 209, which shows seals occupying in the games between blades and platforms work.

L'invention est relative à une garniture d'étanchéité qui peut être placée dans chacun de ces jeux et qui les comble correctement. Plus précisément, elle est relative à un assemblage pour rotor, composé d'aubes encastrées dans le rotor et de plates-formes situées entre des paires d'aubes consécutives, des jeux substantiellement longitudinaux subsistant entre les aubes et les plates-formes, des garnitures d'étanchéité occupant les jeux et cet assemblage est caractérisé en ce que les garnitures d'étanchéité sont formées d'une enveloppe composée d'une face portant contre les flancs des plates-formes et d'une face souple dirigée vers les surfaces des aubes. L'enveloppe peut, de façon équivalente, être composée d'une face portant contre les surfaces des aubes et d'une face souple dirigée vers les flancs des plates-formes. De plus, les garnitures sont encore formées d'une pièce longiligne massive dans l'enveloppe, qui peut être sectorisée ou composée d'une pluralité d'éléments.The invention relates to a gasket seal that can be placed in any of these games and who fills them properly. More precisely, it relates to an assembly for rotor, composed blades embedded in the rotor and platforms located between pairs of consecutive blades, sets substantially longitudinal remaining between the vanes and platforms, seals occupying the games and this assembly is characterized in that the fittings are made up of a envelope composed of a face bearing against the sides platforms and a flexible face directed towards the blade surfaces. The envelope can equivalent, be composed of one side bearing against the surfaces of the blades and of a flexible directed face towards the sides of the platforms. Moreover, the fittings are still formed of a slender piece massive in the envelope, which can be sectored or composed of a plurality of elements.

  • la figure 5 est un détail de la figure 3 et qui illustre le comportement de la garniture d'étanchéité lorsque le moteur tourne conformément à l'invention,
  • la figure 6 est une coupe dans le sens circonférentiel d'une variante de l'invention,
  • et la figure 7 est une vue analogue à la figure 5 qui illustre une autre réalisation de l'invention.
The invention will now be described in more detail with the aid of the following figures which are given by way of illustration and not limitation:
  • FIG. 1 is a general view of a machine where the invention is used,
  • FIG. 2 is a cross section of the assembly representing a platform held in place by upstream and downstream ferrules,
  • FIG. 3 is a section in the circumferential direction of the assembly of FIG. 2,

  • FIG. 5 is a detail of FIG. 3 and which illustrates the behavior of the seal when the engine is running in accordance with the invention,
  • FIG. 6 is a section in the circumferential direction of a variant of the invention,
  • and Figure 7 is a view similar to Figure 5 which illustrates another embodiment of the invention.

On se reporte tout d'abord aux figures 1 à 3. La figure 1 représente essentiellement une turbomachine pourvue comme d'habitude de plusieurs étages de compresseurs, de turbines, etc., et qui s'ouvre, à gauche sur la figure, par une soufflante d'entrée S composée d'un disque 8 de rotor portant un étage circulaire d'aubes 1 radiales qui séparent des plates-formes 2 délimitant une veine d'écoulement. On aborde maintenant la figure 3. On y voit deux aubes 1 adjacentes et une plate-forme 2 intermédiaire, composée d'un longeron central 3 et de noyaux 4 de part et d'autre du longeron 3. Les noyaux 4 présentent des flancs 6 externes orientés vers les aubes 1 et qui s'évasent en direction radiale vers l'extérieur. Le jeu 7, déterminé par le mode de montage, avec les aubes 1 n'est que de quelques millimètres.We first refer to Figures 1 to 3. Figure 1 shows essentially a turbomachine as usual provided with several stages of compressors, turbines, etc., and which opens, on the left in the figure, by a blower input S composed of a rotor disc 8 carrying a circular stage of radial blades 1 which separate platforms 2 delimiting a flow vein. We now turn to figure 3. We can see two blades 1 adjacent and an intermediate platform 2, composed a central spar 3 and cores 4 on the one hand and other side member 3. The cores 4 have external flanks 6 oriented towards the blades 1 and which flare outward in a radial direction. The game 7, determined by the mounting method, with the blades 1 is only a few millimeters.

Les pièces de plate-forme 2 sont en matériau composite, ce qui allège sensiblement le rotor. On voit sur la figure 2 qu'elles s'étendent sur toutes la longueur du disque 8, et en dépassent des deux côtés par un appendice amont 10 et un appendice aval 11. Une virole amont 12 et une virole aval 13 accolées aux faces latérales du disque 8 et fixées à ces faces selon des dispositions connues coiffent respectivement les appendices 10 et 11 des pièces de plate-forme 2 et retiennent ainsi ces pièces contre les mouvements axiaux et radiaux. Dans cette réalisation, les pièces de plate-forme 2 sont maintenues par les viroles 12 et 13 à quelques dixièmes de millimètre de la surface du disque 8.Platform parts 2 are in composite material, which significantly reduces the rotor. We see in Figure 2 that they extend over all the length of disc 8, and exceed two sides by an upstream appendage 10 and an appendage downstream 11. An upstream ferrule 12 and a downstream ferrule 13 attached to the side faces of the disc 8 and fixed to these faces according to known arrangements cover Appendices 10 and 11 respectively platform 2 and thus hold these parts against axial and radial movements. In this realization, the platform parts 2 are held by the ferrules 12 and 13 a few tenths of a millimeter from the surface of the disc 8.

Les garnitures d'étanchéité qui occupent les jeux 7 portent la référence générale 15 sur la figure 3. Chacune est composée d'une enveloppe 16 formée d'une face interne 17, d'une face externe 18 et d'un talon 19 radialement interne. La section de l'enveloppe 16 est donc triangulaire telle qu'elle est représentée, au moment de l'insertion des pièces de plate-forme 2. Une pièce longiligne en forme de baguette 20 est engagée dans l'enveloppe 16 et occupe une partie du volume qu'elle englobe. La baguette 20 n'est pas forcément souple et peut être formée de métal ou de matériau composite, mais dont la masse est suffisante pour qu'elle se déplace dans l'enveloppe 16 sous l'action des forces centrifuges créées au fonctionnement. The seals that occupy games 7 have the general reference 15 on the figure 3. Each consists of an envelope 16 formed of an internal face 17, an external face 18 and a radially internal heel 19. The section of envelope 16 is therefore triangular as it is shown, when inserting the parts of platform 2. A slender piece in the shape of rod 20 is engaged in the envelope 16 and occupies part of the volume it encompasses. Baguette 20 is not necessarily flexible and can be made of metal or of composite material, but whose mass is sufficient for it to move in the envelope 16 under the action of centrifugal forces created at operation.

En effet, comme on le représente à la figure 5, l'enveloppe 16 est en élastomère, sa face externe 18 et le talon 19 ont la faculté de se déformer, et la baguette 20 a la liberté de glisser dans l'enveloppe 16 vers l'extérieur pour se rapprocher de l'endroit du jeu 7 et le combler. La baguette 20 est avantageusement cylindrique à toutes ses sections pour faciliter son glissement. L'enveloppe 16 prend alors la forme d'un triangle dont la pointe est vers l'intérieur en direction radiale au lieu d'être vers l'extérieur. La face interne 17 reste pour sa part collée au flanc 6 correspondant.Indeed, as we represent it at the Figure 5, the casing 16 is made of elastomer, its face outer 18 and heel 19 have the ability to deform, and the rod 20 has the freedom to slide in the envelope 16 outwards to get closer from the place of game 7 and fill it. Baguette 20 is advantageously cylindrical with all its sections for facilitate its sliding. The envelope 16 then takes the shape of a triangle with the point inwards in a radial direction instead of being outward. The internal face 17 remains for its part glued to the side 6 corresponding.

La figure 4 illustre cette réalisation de l'invention en vue centripète. Chaque pièce de plate-forme 2 porte deux garnitures d'étanchéité 15 semblables, même si les jeux respectifs 7a et 7b qui séparent le bord de la pièce de plate-forme 2 des aubes 1 entre lesquelles elle est située peuvent être différents : la souplesse de l'enveloppe 16 permet de combler des jeux 7 larges aussi bien qu'étroits. On remarque aussi que les flancs 6 des pièces de plate-forme 2 sont sensiblement parallèles aux flancs des aubes 1 devant lesquels ils s'étendent, et que les garnitures d'étanchéité 15 sont courbées de façon semblable. Les jeux 7 sont ainsi comblés sur toute leur longueur par un mouvement sensiblement uniforme de translation des baguettes 20.Figure 4 illustrates this realization of the invention in centripetal view. Each platform piece 2 carries two seals 15 similar, even if the respective games 7a and 7b which separate the edge of the platform piece 2 from the blades 1 between which it is located can be different: the flexibility of the envelope 16 allows bridge wide as well as narrow 7 games. We also note that the sides 6 of the platform pieces 2 are substantially parallel to the sides of the vanes 1 in front of which they extend, and that the seals 15 are bent so similar. Games 7 are thus filled over their entire length by a substantially uniform movement of translation of the sticks 20.

La figure 6 illustre une réalisation dans laquelle les pièces de plate-forme 2 possèdent comme les aubes 1 un pied 5 engagé dans un alvéole du disque 8 réalisé par un brochage. Les viroles 12 et 13 peuvent alors être omises.FIG. 6 illustrates an embodiment in which platform parts 2 have as the vanes 1 a foot 5 engaged in a cavity of the disc 8 produced by a pinout. Ferrules 12 and 13 can then be omitted.

La figure 7 illustre une autre réalisation de l'invention, dans laquelle la face interne, ici 17', de l'enveloppe 16' des garnitures d'étanchéité 15 est collée au flanc de l'aube 1, et la face externe 18' et le talcn 19' sont dirigés vers le flanc 6 de la plate-forme 2. On s'aperçoit que le fonctionnement est le même car les forces centrifuges déplacent la baguette 20 vers la portion étroite du jeu et le comblent donc.Figure 7 illustrates another embodiment of the invention, in which the internal face, here 17 ′, of the casing 16 ′ of the seals 15 is glued to the flank of the blade 1, and the external face 18 'and the talcn 19 'are directed towards the side 6 of the platform 2. We notice that the operation is the even because centrifugal forces move the wand 20 towards the narrow portion of the game and therefore fill it.
