Abstract
755,411. Gas turbine engines. GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION. Dec. 15, 1954, No. 36334/54. Class 110(3) In a gas turbine engine, means are provided for conducting cooling air to the turbine rotor and include a rotatable ring valve having passages therethrough for controlling delivery of the cooling air. The gas turbine jet propulsion engine shown comprises a centrifugal compressor rotor 10 driven by turbine rotor 12 by means of a splined coupling 60, the shafts being mounted in bearings 14. The outer frame member 42 has a ring flange member 62 secured thereto and the flange has a channel-shaped ring member 66 secured thereto by bolts 74. Angle section ring members 68, 70, 72 are secured to the channel member 66 by the bolts 74. The turbine nozzle inner ring 76 is secured to the angle section ring 68 and inlet nozzle vanes 56 are welded between the inner ring 76 and outer ring 78. The angle-section rings 70, 72 define an annular space A to which cooling air is fed through conduits 90 from the air spaces between the combustion chamber outer casings 52 and the frame tubes 50, the air passing from the space A through the passage 96 in the turbine rotor and into the hollow rotor blades 58 through inlets 98 in the roots thereof, the air finally discharging through outlets 102 in the blades. The air from the conduits 90 passes through openings D in the flange 62 to the annular space B formed by the channel 66, the air supply being controlled by a ring member 92 having ports E therein which is rotatably mounted between the flange 62 and the channel 66. The ring valve is operated by means of a geared sector 110 which engages an internally toothed portion of the ring valve, the sector being mounted on a shaft 114 which is rotatable in bearings 120, 122. The rod 114 is operable by means of a rod 134 through a link 116, movement being limited by means of a pair of stops engageable by a lug. The valve may be operated by the throttle of the engine or by manual action so that greater cooling is provided at increased power. Sealing means 104, 106 are provided on the angle-section rings 70, 72 to prevent leakage from the space A.
