Abstract

619.690. Making compressor blades &c. CORBITT, R. W., and ROLLS-ROYCE, Ltd. July 3, 1946, No. 19926. Addition to 568,575. [Classes 83 (ii) and 83 (iii)] [Also in Group XXVI] The method of forming blades for turbines, rotary compressors &c. wherein the blade surfaces are generated by cutters arranged to traverse a conical surface of which the apex is beyond the blade tip and the axis inclined to the radial axis of the blade at such an angle that the generating line of the cone can occupy a position parallel with the blade axis, is modified in that the cutters are traversed over the surface of a hyperboloid with its axis inclined in a like manner and its part of smallest radius beyond the blade tips. As shown in Fig. 1, the concave surface of the blade 12 is generated by cutters traversing the surface of a hyperboloid 16 having its axis 17 inclined to the radial axis of the blade and in the plane generated by the rotation of the trailing edges of the blades, the part 18 of the hyperboloid having the smallest radius being located beyond the tip and equal to about half the axial length of the blade. The cutters 31-34, Fig. 3, are mounted in a tool-head rotatable about the axis 37 of the hyperboloid and are advanced along lines parallel to generating lines of a cone 36 co-axial with the hyperboloid and offset, by an amount a, from the axis of the cone. The cutters are slidably mounted in guideways 35 and are advanced by any suitable gearing, or hydraulically. In generating the convex faces, the hyperboloid has a smaller minimum radius whereby the thickness of the blade diminishes from the root to the tip and towards one or both edges. Tapering of the blade in both radial and axial directions may be produced by using hyperboloids for generating the front and back faces which are asymptotic to cones having different cone angles and generating lines diverging towards the root of the blade.
