Definitions

  • the invention generally relates to a turbomachine, in particular a turbocharger charged with supplying combustion air, under pressure, to the combustion chamber of a jet engine. It relates more particularly to an improvement reinforcing the tightness of the junction between two subassemblies of such a machine, for example the junction under stress between a housing and a fixed blade support of the stator.
  • the stator is assembled to an outer casing.
  • two subassemblies, the housing and the stator are shaped to define between them an annular chamber in which is inserted a seal. It is supported between two annular walls vis-à-vis belonging respectively to the two subassemblies.
  • the two annular parts in contact with the two subassemblies are applied against each other with axial stress.
  • a turbomachine according to the prior art is known in the document FR 2646221 .
  • the constraint can be expressed in millimeters, this value designating the axial interference that would exist between the two subsets, if they were not abutting under stress. Hitherto, relatively low stresses have been implemented, conventionally of the order of 0.3 mm. More recently, this mounting stress has been raised to 0.75 mm.
  • the chamber housing the seal can open under the effect of deformation of thermal origin. Moreover, in operation the seal undergoes deformations and wear that can go as far as the loss of fragments which, driven by the pressure difference, are jammed between the facing faces of the annular chamber. These faces are damaged and air leaks increase.
  • the invention aims to prevent the opening of the chamber to prevent the release of pieces of the seal and the degradation of the surfaces against which it rests.
  • the invention relates to a turbomachine comprising at least two subsets assembled to one another and defining between them an annular chamber housing a seal, wherein two annular contacting parts respectively belonging to the two sub-assemblies. sets and defining said chamber are urged towards each other, in a manner known per se, with axial constraint and characterized in that an annular spacer is inserted between their abutting surfaces.
  • the axial stress can be significantly increased. It may especially be between 1.5 and 3 mm. A presently preferred stress value is close to 2.25 mm.
  • This strong mounting constraint makes it possible to absorb variations of thermal origin and thus prevents the opening of the chamber and the destruction of the seal.
  • This piece is inexpensive and easy to change if it is damaged. Therefore, both sub-assemblies are protected and no longer risk being damaged.
  • the arrangement is such that the contact area between the two abutting subsets is increased. This results in a decrease in the matting pressure and a better behavior vis-à-vis the relative displacements between the subsets.
  • the invention is particularly applicable to the connection between an outer casing and a stator element carrying the blades of a turbocharger.
  • FIG. 1 a portion of a turbocharger 11 forming part of an aircraft engine reactor.
  • Two subassemblies 14,16 are assembled under axial stress by defining between them an annular chamber 18 inside which is inserted a seal 20.
  • the subassembly 14 constitutes an outer casing while the subassembly 16 constitutes the support of a plurality of vanes 22 of the turbocharger.
  • the unrepresented blades are located between the blades.
  • the fixed blade support consists of several segments 26 assembled end to end, each segment carrying a series of blades. The entire support is fixed to an inner casing 27.
  • This inner casing extends radially outwards by three annular rings, a first ring 30 is fixed by a bolt assembly 31 to a first inner frame 32 of the outer casing, a second ring 34 bears unrestrained against a second frame 36 of the outer casing, extending inwardly.
  • the third ring 37 is fixed by a set of bolts 38 to an inner frame 39 of the outer casing 14.
  • the second ring 34 comprises a flat annular surface 40 extending radially inwards, extended by an axial cylindrical portion 42 bearing by its circular field 43 against said second frame 36. More particularly, it comprises another flat annular surface 45 facing that of the crown, surmounted by an approximately tubular protrusion 46 coming to cover play with an outer cylindrical portion of the second ring.
  • This arrangement therefore defines the annular chamber 18 within which the gasket 20 which is supported between the two flat surfaces 40, 45 is installed.
  • the sizing of the subassemblies 14, 16 is such that the mounting is performed with a constraint caused by the tightening of the bolts 31.
  • the invention appears in FIG. 3 and proposes to arrange an annular spacer 50 between the abutting surfaces of the two subassemblies, that is to say here between the circular field 43 of the ring 34 and the circular end of the flat surface 45 of the frame 36.
  • This piece 50 increases the mounting stress which can now be between 1.5 mm and 3 mm, typically around 2.25 mm.
  • the intermediate part 50 is shaped to increase the contact surface at the end of at least one of the annular parts, in this case more particularly the flat surface 45 of said second frame 36.
  • the axial cylindrical portion 42 of the ring gear makes it possible to guide the positioning of the intermediate piece 50 because the latter comprises a cylindrical surface 52 fitting on said cylindrical portion 42.
  • a radial portion 54 of the intermediate piece takes bearing against the flat surface 45 of said second chord.
  • the radial section of the insert 50 is in the shape of an L.
  • the insert can undergo a surface treatment, before mounting, reinforcing its strength.
  • the treatment may especially relate to the radial portion 54. It is therefore not necessary to apply a treatment of this kind to the crown or chord.
  • the spacer 50a is extended by a deflector portion 56, inwardly.
  • this part has a substantially conical shape.
