Abstract

1338499 Gas turbine ducted fan engines ROLLS-ROYCE (1971) Ltd 3 Dec 1971 56196/71 Heading F1J The invention relates to a gas turbine ducted fan engine in which the fan turbine drives the fan by means of a plurality of layshafts connected by gears to the turbine and the fan. The engine comprises LP compressor 11, HP compressor 12, combustion equipment 13, HP turbine 14, LP turbine 15 and a fan driving turbine 16. The turbine 16 is drivingly connected to the fan rotor 19 by means of a plurality of layshafts 21 which extend across the turbine working fluid annulus being enclosed within fairings 23. The fan turbine 16 is secured to a shaft assembly 32 which is supported in a ball bearing 35. The shaft is formed with a flange 36 which carries a driving bevel gear 37. A bevel pinion 38 is mounted on a layshaft 21 by means of a spline connection 43, 44, also by means of a flange 45 on the shaft which engages a flange 47 on the pinion through a ring member 46. A retaining plate 48 engages against the flange 45 and is retained by means of a spring ring 49. The bevel pinion is supported within gear housing 42 by means of a ball bearing 39 and a pair of roller bearings 40, 41. A bevel pinion 57 is mounted at the other end of the layshaft by means of a sleeve 58 which is in splined engagement 59, 60 at one end with the layshaft and in splined engagement 61, 62 at the other end with the bevel pinion. The pinion is rotatably mounted in the housing 51 by means of two roller bearings 63, 64. The bevel pinion engages a bevel gear 70 which is secured to the shaft 71 on which the fan rotor blades 72 are mounted, the shaft being rotatably mounted in a ball bearing 73 which forms the sole support for the fan rotor. The splines 59, 60, and 61, 62 may be of different pitch so as to form a vernier type coupling. The layshaft extends through a tube member 50, the tube member being connected to the gear housing 51 by means of a compression joint 52 which comprises a tube with an internal conical surface at one end and externally screwed at its other end, a sleeve 56 formed with conical surfaces one of which engages the conical surface of the tube 52 and the other of which is engaged by the conical surface of a ring member 55, a nut 54 engaging against the ring member.
