- the orientation of the blades 16 of the stator vanes 12 with respect to the air flow is essential to ensure optimum operation of the turbomachine.
- a minimum clearance must be provided between the groove 20 and the platform 14 to ensure the insertion of the platform 14 of the blade in the groove 20.
- the nominal width of the platform that is to say, its nominal dimension along the axis of the turbomachine must necessarily be less than the nominal width of the groove 20.
- the blade 12 thus mounted, after tightening the nut 26 on the housing, has a angular offset in the groove 20. This shift is more or less important depending on the actual width of the platform and the actual width of the groove are at the upper or lower limit of manufacturing tolerances.
- important means in terms of tooling and control of the orientation of the blade platforms are necessary, thus making expensive and long the mounting operation of the straightening vanes.

- the insertion of the platform 14 in the groove 20 can thus be performed.
- figure 5 is shown the case where the actual width of the platform is less than the actual width of the groove 20.
- the insertion of the platform 14 into the groove 20 presents no difficulty and we are then in a configuration mounting similar to that of the prior art.
- the dimensions of the projections 28 must be chosen according to the manufacturing tolerances of the parts so that the insertion of the platform 14 into the groove 20 is always possible. In particular, to avoid creating additional stress zones, it is important that the length of the projections 28 is sufficient for the contacts between the platform 14 and the groove 20 to be made at the projections 28 and not at the level of the projections 28. vertices of the platform 14 which do not include projection.
- the two projections of the platform may have the same width or dimension in the longitudinal plane of the turbomachine, defined as a function of the clearance needed to mount the platform in the groove taking into account the tolerances on the width of the groove and the platform.
- each projection is of the order of 0.2 to 0.3 mm and its length is of the order of 5 mm. These dimensions are given as an indication for a platform and a groove of nominal width of about 50 mm, the lateral dimension of the platform being about 30 mm.
- the platform comprises a thickened part 30, forming a circular zone, centered on the axis of the threaded rod 18.

Description
La présente invention concerne des aubes de redresseur pour turbomachine, telle en particulier qu'un turboréacteur d'avion.The present invention relates to turbomachine stator vanes, such as in particular an aircraft turbojet engine.
De façon connue, une aube de redresseur comprend une pale, raccordée à son extrémité radialement externe à une plate-forme, avec une tige filetée qui s'étend radialement vers l'extérieur depuis la plate-forme. Les bords amont et aval de la plate-forme sont engagés dans une rainure annulaire formée dans la surface interne d'un carter sensiblement cylindrique, la tige étant insérée dans un orifice du fond de la rainure. L'aube ainsi positionnée est calée angulairement par butée de la plate-forme sur les flancs de la rainure. Un écrou est vissé sur la tige filetée pour fixer l'aube sur le carter. Le serrage de l'écrou sur le carter permet de maintenir l'aube de redresseur dans une position fixe afin que celle-ci assure au mieux sa fonction de redressement du flux d'air circulant dans la turbomachine.In known manner, a stator blade comprises a blade, connected at its radially outer end to a platform, with a threaded rod which extends radially outwardly from the platform. The upstream and downstream edges of the platform are engaged in an annular groove formed in the inner surface of a substantially cylindrical housing, the rod being inserted into a hole in the bottom of the groove. The dawn thus positioned is wedged angularly by abutment of the platform on the flanks of the groove. A nut is screwed onto the threaded rod to secure the blade to the crankcase. The tightening of the nut on the casing makes it possible to maintain the stator vane in a fixed position so that it optimally assures its function of rectifying the flow of air circulating in the turbomachine.
Dans la technique actuelle, pour positionner la plate-forme de l'aube dans la rainure, la largeur nominale de la plate-forme, c'est-à -dire sa dimension nominale dans le plan longitudinal de la turbomachine, est inférieure à la largeur nominale de la rainure, ce qui induit un jeu minimal de la plate-forme montée dans la rainure. Le serrage de l'écrou de fixation engendre un décalage angulaire de la plateforme de l'aube lequel est plus ou moins important du fait des tolérances de fabrication de la rainure du carter et de la plate-forme. La pale de l'aube se retrouve ainsi décalée angulairement par rapport à sa position théorique et n'assure donc plus de façon optimale le redressement du flux d'air traversant la turbomachine. Le décalage angulaire de plusieurs aubes de redresseur peut ainsi conduire à une perte de rendement et d'efficacité de la turbomachine.In the present art, to position the blade platform in the groove, the nominal width of the platform, i.e. its nominal dimension in the longitudinal plane of the turbomachine, is less than Nominal width of the groove, which induces a minimum clearance of the platform mounted in the groove. Clamping the fixing nut causes an angular offset of the platform of the blade which is more or less important because of the manufacturing tolerances of the groove of the housing and the platform. The blade of the blade is thus angularly offset with respect to its theoretical position and therefore no longer provides optimum recovery of the air flow through the turbomachine. The angular offset of several stator vanes can thus lead to a loss of efficiency and efficiency of the turbomachine.
Actuellement, le calage angulaire des aubes de redresseur sur la carter nécessite des moyens importants en terme d'outillage et de contrôle ce qui rend d'autant plus coûteuse et longue cette phase de montage. La diminution des tolérances de fabrication des plates-formes des aubes et des rainures du carter n'est pas une solution envisageable dans la mesure où cela augmenterait considérablement les coûts de fabrication.Currently, the angular setting of the stator vanes on the housing requires significant resources in terms of tools and control which makes it all the more expensive and long this phase of assembly. The Decreasing the manufacturing tolerances of the platforms of the blades and crankcase grooves is not a feasible solution since it would considerably increase manufacturing costs.
Il est donc important d'améliorer le positionnement angulaire de l'aube dans la rainure afin d'assurer un positionnement optimal de la pale de l'aube par rapport à l'écoulement d'air, tout en conservant les mêmes tolérances de fabrication.It is therefore important to improve the angular position of the blade in the groove to ensure optimal positioning of the vane blade relative to the air flow, while maintaining the same manufacturing tolerances.
L'invention se propose donc d'améliorer le calage angulaire de l'aube dans la rainure de façon simple, efficace et économique.The invention therefore proposes to improve the angular setting of the blade in the groove simply, efficiently and economically.
Elle propose à cet effet une aube de redresseur de turbomachine, fixée à un carter au moyen d'une plate-forme agencée à l'extrémité radialement externe de l'aube et engagée dans une rainure annulaire de la surface interne du carter, et d'une tige filetée s'étendant radialement vers l'extérieur depuis la plate-forme à travers un orifice du carter et recevant un écrou de fixation extérieur au carter, caractérisée en ce que les bords amont et aval de la plate-forme comprennent chacun une saillie s'étendant dans le plan de la plate-forme et limitant la rotation de la plate-forme dans la rainure lors du serrage de l'écrou vissé sur la tige filetée.To this end, it proposes a turbomachine stator vane, fixed to a casing by means of a platform arranged at the radially outer end of the vane and engaged in an annular groove of the inner surface of the casing, and a threaded rod extending radially outwardly from the platform through an orifice of the housing and receiving an attachment nut external to the housing, characterized in that the upstream and downstream edges of the platform each comprise a protrusion extending in the plane of the platform and limiting the rotation of the platform in the groove when tightening the nut screwed on the threaded rod.
La réalisation de saillies sur les bords amont et aval de la plate-forme permet d'engager dans la rainure du carter, une plateforme dont la largeur nominale est égale à la largeur nominale de la rainure. Par conséquent, il n'y a plus de jeu minimal entre la plate-forme et la rainure. Le décalage angulaire entre ces deux pièces après vissage de l'écrou est réduit et est uniquement fonction des tolérances de fabrication. L'invention permet donc d'améliorer le positionnement de l'aube tout en conservant les mêmes tolérances de fabrication.The production of projections on the upstream and downstream edges of the platform allows to engage in the groove of the housing, a platform whose nominal width is equal to the nominal width of the groove. As a result, there is no longer any minimum clearance between the platform and the groove. The angular offset between these two parts after screwing the nut is reduced and depends solely on manufacturing tolerances. The invention therefore improves the positioning of the blade while maintaining the same manufacturing tolerances.
Avantageusement, la plate-forme étant sensiblement rectangulaire, une saillie est située à un sommet de la plate-forme et l'autre saillie est sensiblement symétrique de la première par rapport au centre de la plate-forme.Advantageously, the platform being substantially rectangular, a projection is located at an apex of the platform and the other projection is substantially symmetrical with the first relative to the center of the platform.
Le positionnement des saillies à des sommets opposés de la plate-forme permet d'avoir un couple de serrage optimal lors du vissage de l'écrou sur la tige filetée tout en évitant tout phénomène de marquage par matage des pièces.The positioning of the projections at opposite peaks of the platform allows to have an optimal tightening torque when screwing the nut on the threaded rod while avoiding any marking phenomenon by matting parts.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les saillies sont formées aux extrémités des bords de la plate-forme qui viennent en appui sur les flancs de la rainure lors du serrage de l'écrou de fixation.According to another characteristic of the invention, the projections are formed at the ends of the edges of the platform which bear on the flanks of the groove when tightening the fixing nut.
Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, les saillies sont de forme sensiblement rectangulaire et ont une dimension, en direction des flancs de la rainure, définie en fonction du jeu nécessaire au montage de la plate-forme dans la rainure en tenant compte des tolérances sur la largeur de la rainure et de la plate forme.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the projections are of substantially rectangular shape and have a dimension, in the direction of the flanks of the groove, defined as a function of the clearance necessary for mounting the platform in the groove taking into account tolerances on the width of the groove and the platform.
Dans une variante de l'invention, la tige filetée est reliée à une partie centrale de la plate-forme formant une surépaisseur par rapport aux bords amont et aval de la plate forme, la partie en surépaisseur pouvant former une zone circulaire centrée sur l'axe de la tige.In a variant of the invention, the threaded rod is connected to a central portion of the platform forming an extra thickness with respect to the upstream and downstream edges of the platform, the thickened portion being able to form a circular zone centered on the axis of the stem.
Les saillies et la surépaisseur de la plate-forme peuvent être réalisées par exemple par usinage.The projections and the extra thickness of the platform can be made for example by machining.
L'invention concerne également une turbomachine, telle qu'un turboréacteur d'avion, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comprend des aubes de redresseur du type décrit ci-dessus.The invention also relates to a turbomachine, such as an aircraft turbojet, characterized in that it comprises stator vanes of the type described above.

On se réfère tout d'abord à la
Une aube fixe comprend une plate-forme 14 sensiblement rectangulaire raccordant l'extrémité radialement externe d'une pale 16 à une tige filetée 18 s'étendant radialement vers l'extérieur depuis la plate-forme. La plate-forme 14 est engagée dans une rainure annulaire 20 de la surface interne d'un carter à géométrie de révolution 22 et maintenue fixe dans la rainure grâce à la tige 18 laquelle est insérée dans un orifice radial 24 du carter 22. Des écrous 26 de fixation sont vissés sur les tiges 18 pour assurer le serrage de l'aube sur le carter 22.A fixed blade comprises a substantially
Lors du fonctionnement de la turbomachine, les aubes mobiles et les aubes fixes coopèrent pour faire passer l'air à travers les différentes parties du moteur. Les aubes fixes (encore appelées aubes de redresseur) ont pour fonction de redresser le flux d'air circulant dans la turbomachine. Ainsi, l'orientation des pales 16 des aubes 12 de redresseur par rapport à l'écoulement d'air est essentielle pour assurer un fonctionnement optimal de la turbomachine.During the operation of the turbomachine, the blades and the vanes cooperate to pass air through the different parts of the engine. The blades (also called stator vanes) have the function of straightening the flow of air flowing in the turbomachine. Thus, the orientation of the

La réalisation de saillies 28 aux extrémités des bords amont et aval de la plate-forme permet de dimensionner la plate-forme 14 de l'aube 12 de manière à ce que sa largeur nominale soit égale à la largeur nominale de la rainure 20. Deux cas peuvent être distingués selon que, en raison des tolérances de fabrication des pièces, la largeur réelle de la plate-forme est inférieure ou supérieure à la largeur réelle de la rainure.The production of

Dans les deux cas, présentés ci-dessus, on obtient une réduction du décalage angulaire maximum de l'aube par rapport à la position théorique. Cette réduction est supérieure à 50 % par rapport à une plate-forme sans saillies, tout en conservant les mêmes tolérances de fabrication que dans l'art antérieur. L'invention permet également qu'une aube dont la largeur réelle de la plate-forme est égale à la largeur nominale de la rainure, ne présente aucun décalage angulaire au serrage de l'écrou de fixation, ce qui est impossible avec une aube de l'art antérieur.In both cases, presented above, we obtain a reduction of the maximum angular offset of the blade relative to the theoretical position. This reduction is greater than 50% compared to a platform without projections, while maintaining the same manufacturing tolerances as in the prior art. The invention also allows a blade whose actual width of the platform is equal to the nominal width of the groove, has no angular offset to the tightening of the fixing nut, which is impossible with a blade of the prior art.
Les dimensions des saillies 28 doivent être choisies en fonction des tolérances de fabrication des pièces de telle façon que l'insertion de la plate-forme 14 dans la rainure 20 soit toujours possible. En particulier, pour éviter de créer des zones de contraintes supplémentaires, il est important que la longueur des saillies 28 soit suffisante pour que les contacts entre la plate-forme 14 et la rainure 20 soient réalisés au niveau des saillies 28 et non pas au niveau des sommets de la plate-forme 14 qui ne comprennent pas de saillie.The dimensions of the
Les deux saillies de la plate-forme peuvent avoir la même largeur ou dimension dans le plan longitudinal de la turbomachine, définie en fonction du jeu nécessaire au montage de la plate-forme dans la rainure en tenant compte des tolérances sur la largeur de la rainure et de la plate forme.The two projections of the platform may have the same width or dimension in the longitudinal plane of the turbomachine, defined as a function of the clearance needed to mount the platform in the groove taking into account the tolerances on the width of the groove and the platform.
Dans le mode de réalisation de l'invention représenté aux dessins, la largeur de chaque saillie est de l'ordre de 0,2 à 0,3 mm et sa longueur est de l'ordre de 5 mm. Ces dimensions sont données à titre indicatif pour une plate-forme et une rainure de largeur nominale d'environ 50 mm, la dimension latérale de la plate-forme étant d'environ 30 mm.In the embodiment of the invention shown in the drawings, the width of each projection is of the order of 0.2 to 0.3 mm and its length is of the order of 5 mm. These dimensions are given as an indication for a platform and a groove of nominal width of about 50 mm, the lateral dimension of the platform being about 30 mm.
Avantageusement, la plate-forme comprend une partie 30 en surépaisseur, formant une zone circulaire, centrée sur l'axe de la tige filetée 18. Le contact entre la plate-forme 14 et le carter 22 est ainsi limité à la partie 30 en surépaisseur et ne s'étend pas jusqu'aux bords amont et aval de la plate-forme, ce qui permet de diminuer les contraintes sur le bord d'attaque 32 et le bord de fuite 34 de la pale 16 qui sont dues au serrage de la tige filetée 18 sur le carter 22.Advantageously, the platform comprises a thickened
Les saillies ainsi que la surépaisseur de la plate-forme peuvent être réalisés par usinage.The projections and the extra thickness of the platform can be made by machining.
L'invention est donc particulièrement intéressante en ce qu'elle permet d'améliorer le positionnement initial d'une aube dans une rainure d'un carter, tout en conservant les mêmes tolérances de fabrication.The invention is therefore particularly interesting in that it makes it possible to improve the initial positioning of a blade in a groove of a casing, while maintaining the same manufacturing tolerances.
L'invention précédemment décrite peut être utilisée dans tous les compartiments de la turbomachine nécessitant une fixation angulaire précise des aubes de redresseur. L'invention n'est pas limitée à la seule forme de saillie décrite et représentée et d'autres formes peuvent être également envisagées.The invention described above can be used in all compartments of the turbomachine requiring precise angular attachment of the stator vanes. The invention is not limited to the single projection form described and shown and other forms may also be envisaged.
