A turbine exhaust case is provided for a gas turbine engine. This turbine exhaust case includes a first gas turbine engine exhaust case, a second gas turbine engine exhaust case, a strut and a fastener. The second gas turbine engine exhaust case includes a flange and a bracket. The strut is coupled to the first case and the second case. The fastener fastens the flange and the strut. The second gas turbine engine exhaust case is co-axial with the first gas turbine engine exhaust case. The strut contacts the bracket when the engine is powered-on.

Load transfer in turbine exhaust case

A vane strut assembly is disclosed, The vane strut assembly may include a first panel, a second panel, and a coupling mechanism that couples the first panel and the second panel to one another. The coupling mechanism may include a first fitting that is attached to the first panel, a second fitting that is attached to the second panel, and a cable disposed between the first fitting and the second fitting.

Low bending stress structural strut and attachment

A busway system is provided. The busway system includes a first electrical busway section, a second electrical busway section, and a busway joint. The first and second electrical busway sections are disposed longitudinally offset from each other. The busway joint couples the first and second busway sections. The busway joint includes a first assembly coupled to the first busway section, a second assembly coupled to the second busway section, a plurality of conductors coupled to the first and second assemblies, a first movable brace coupled to the conductors, and a first brace locator coupled to the movable brace. The first and second assemblies move relative to each other between a collapsed position and an extended position. The first movable brace moves longitudinally along a length of the conductors. The first brace locator locates the first movable brace at a first position when the first assembly is in the extended position.

Electrical busway joint with self-adjusting braces

A busway system is provided. The busway system includes a first electrical busway section, a second electrical busway section, and a busway joint. The first and second electrical busway sections are disposed longitudinally offset from each other. The busway joint couples the first and second busway sections. The busway joint includes a plurality of busbars, a plurality of splice plates electrically coupled to the busbars, a first assembly coupled to the first electrical busway section, a second assembly coupled to the second electrical busway section, and an adjustment assembly coupled to the first and second assemblies. The splice plates and the busbars electrically couple the first and second electrical busway sections together. The adjustment assembly selectively moves the first and the second assemblies between a contracted position and an expanded position relative to each other.
