A blade including a blade body made of organic matrix composite material and a leading edge shield made of a material that withstands point impacts better than the composite material of the blade body. The blade includes a blade tip. The leading edge shield is assembled on the blade body and includes a pressure-side fin and a suction-side fin. The pressure-side fin includes a pressure-side tab and the suction-side fin includes a suction-side tab, the pressure-side tab and the suction-side tab are folded one on the other and being secured to each other so as to form a partial covering of the blade tip. A turbojet includes a fan including such blades, and also a method of fabricating such a blade.

A plate closes the main part of a vane in two parts. An internal cavity is closed by the plate. Around a bearing surface of the plate, a groove receives an elastic seal, and the outer edge of the plate extends over the groove to compress the seal and to establish excellent leak proofing. The position of the plate may be guaranteed by centring pins penetrating into holes adjacent to the seal and which it fills when the pins have been removed, which completes the closing of the cavity. The plate has application in particular to stationary gas guide vanes in turbine engines.

A structural and aerodynamic module including two blades each extending along a longitudinal axis, in which each blade includes a leading edge, a trailing edge, a radially inner edge, and a radially outer edge, is provided. The module also includes a radially inner platform mechanically connecting the radially inner edges of the two blades, and a radially outer platform mechanically connecting the radially outer edges of the two blades such that the two blades and the radially outer and inner platforms delimit a flow stream. The two blades and the platforms are made from a composite material and the two blades are fixed on the radially outer and inner platforms using screw-nut assemblies.

The invention relates to a turbomachine module comprising a device to improve radial clearances, comprising an outer casing (), an inner casing () and at least one shock absorbing ring () connecting the casings, the module also comprising an annular cavity () on the downstream side of the ring (), with a passage () formed in it through which an airflow () is drawn off from the primary flow (Fp). According to the invention, the device to improve radial clearances comprises a thermal inertia control device for the shock absorbing ring mounted on the shock absorbing ring (), downstream from it, this device comprising at least one coat of thermal insulation (), and at least partly delimiting the annular cavity () on the downstream side of it ().

A bearing for a turbomachine variable pitch stator vane pivot mounted in a bore of the turbomachine casing is disclosed. The bearing includes an inner bushing secured to the pivot and an outer bushing secured to the bore. An elastomeric material is inserted between the inner bushing and the outer bushing to allow the vane to pivot about its axis and absorb at least some of the flexing of the pivot at right angles to the axis. The design makes it possible to reduce bearing bushing wear.

A device for controlling variable-pitch vanes in a turbomachine has rods each having at one end a finger for mounting in a control ring and at its other end an assembly orifice for mounting on a drive square of a vane, the axis of the vane being inclined relative to the axis of the finger of the rod, and the assembly orifice in the rod presenting a dimension in the longitudinal direction of the rod that is greater than that of the drive square, and co-operating therewith to define clearance that varies over the height of the drive square and of the orifice.

The manufacturing cost of the control device is relatively low. This device comprises mainly a first end () of a control lever () provided with a drive hole () that drives the driving part () of a blade () through a first contact area (). The close contact between these two parts in this area is obtained using a play compensation plate () bearing on a side part () of the control lever (), and fixed to the assembly using a nut () screwed onto the external pivot () of the blade (). For application on turbomachines.

A machine stator and assembly and disassembly methods. The elements of a casing portion are formed of consecutive shells in line with grooves configured to house roots of guide vane stages that are fixed in place by springs and pins for stopping rotation. The elements are arranged in a complete circle, and the assembly is made by axially separating the elements to insert the guide vane stages between the elements by a radial movement.

Machine stator and mounting and dismounting methods

The pitch control mechanism (controlling the angular position) for stator blades in a turbojet may be adjusted separately for two adjacent stages of blades controlled by a common actuatorTo achieve this, the synchronization barlocated between the mechanisms leading to the two stages is inclined, this inclination being determined by a pinand grooveconnection with the casing, while another pinand grooveconnection is arranged between the synchronization barand one of the mechanisms. Strongly non-linear displacement laws between the two mechanisms may thus be controlled depending on the shapes and directions of the grooves.

A device for stopping rotation of a fixed blade bearing sector in a gas turbine casing. Sectors of synchronizing ring blades are maintained against tangential rotational movements by sliding into grooves of a casing by pins passing through perforations in an extension of the two parts. The pins are prevented from accidental removal either by a flexible lock ring or by a locking tab maintained between the two parts when they have been completely assembled.

A device for controlling variable-pitch vanes in a turbomachine comprises links connecting the radial pivots of the vanes to radial fingers carried by semicircular elements and bridges of a control ring, the links being mounted in ball-and-socket manner on the radial fingers which are fixed to the control ring. This form of mounting enables all the vanes associated with the control ring to be set to the same angular pitch.
