US Patent:

6547518, Apr 15, 2003
Filed:

Apr 6, 2001
Appl. No.:

09/827850
Inventors:

Robert Paul Czachor - Cincinnati OH
Steven Andrew Strang - Loveland OH
Assignee:

General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:

F01D 904
US Classification:

415137, 4152094
Abstract:

A gas turbine frame has inner and outer annular bands, respectively, joined together by generally radially extending struts therebetween. A radially outer conical support arm extends radially outwardly from the outer band and a radially inner conical support arm extends radially inwardly from the inner band. Circumferentially spaced apart inner and outer openings are disposed in the inner and outer conical support arms, respectively. Each of the struts has at least one radially extending hollow passage which extends through the inner and outer bands. The frame is a single piece integral casting. The inner and outer conical support arms have an equal number of the inner and outer circumferentially spaced apart openings. The inner circumferentially spaced apart openings are equi-angularly spaced apart and the outer circumferentially spaced apart openings are equi-angularly spaced apart. Each pair of the inner and outer circumferentially spaced apart openings are linearly aligned with the hollow passage of a corresponding one of the struts.

US Patent:

61388963, Oct 31, 2000
Filed:

Oct 5, 1998
Appl. No.:

9/166239
Inventors:

Adrian M. Ablett - Cincinnati OH
Charles W. Carrier - West Chester OH
Brian J. Humke - Cincinnati OH
Steven A. Strang - Loveland OH
Assignee:

General Electric Company - Cincinnati OH
International Classification:

B23K 2012
B23K 3102
US Classification:

228113
Abstract:

First and second superalloy workpieces are inertia welded together by rotating the first workpiece to an initial contact speed greater than about 750 surface feet per minute, and frictionally engaging under a weld load the first and second workpieces to effect an inertia weld therebetween.

US Patent:

52248259, Jul 6, 1993
Filed:

Dec 26, 1991
Appl. No.:

7/813546
Inventors:

Steven A. Strang - Loveland OH
Bruce A. Borelli - Mason OH
George G. Cunningham - Fairfield OH
Assignee:

General Electric Company - Cincinnati OH
International Classification:

F01D 102
US Classification:

4152093
Abstract:

A locator pin retention device comprises a pin with threaded and smooth portions cooperating with a bushing having spaced apart threaded and smooth portions to allow alignment of inner and outer gas turbine engine members exposed to different thermal environments, allowing thermal growth of the inner member in a radially outward direction toward the outer member and reacting axial and circumferential loads to prevent transverse movement to the outer structural member. The device reduces machining of the structural members because machined retention means are inexpensive and replaceable parts.

US Patent:

20180073388, Mar 15, 2018
Filed:

Sep 9, 2016
Appl. No.:

15/260641
Inventors:

- Schenectady NY, US
Steven Andrew Strang - Loveland OH, US
Charles Stanley Orkiszewski - Cincinnati OH, US
Subramanya Shankar - Bangalore, IN
Nitesh Jain - Bangalore, IN
Michael Riehle - West Chester OH, US
International Classification:

F01D 21/04
F01D 5/30
F01D 21/02
F02K 3/06
Abstract:

The turbine assembly includes a shaft, a plurality of rotor disks, a plurality of blades, and at least one cutting mechanisms. The rotor disks are spaced axially along, and coupled to, the shaft and include a radially outer portion. The blades are spaced circumferentially around the radially outer portion. The cutting mechanisms are configured to cut the blades from the rotor disk during a disk over speed condition.

US Patent:

20140212284, Jul 31, 2014
Filed:

Dec 21, 2012
Appl. No.:

13/725150
Inventors:

General Electric Company - , US
Steven Strang - Cincinnati OH, US
Aaron Todd Williams - Cincinnati OH, US
Assignee:

GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY - Schenectady OH
International Classification:

F01D 9/02
US Classification:

4152082, 29889
Abstract:

A turbine nozzle apparatus for a gas turbine engine includes: an annular inner band; an annular outer band circumscribing the inner band; a plurality of airfoil-shaped structural vanes extending between and interconnecting the inner band and the outer band; and a plurality of airfoil-shaped non-structural vanes extending between the inner band and the outer band, each non-structural vane having a root end received by the inner band and a tip end received by the outer band, such that each non-structural vane is free to move to a limited degree relative to the inner and outer bands.
