A fan rotor has a hub, and a plurality of axial flow fan blades extending radially outwardly of the hub. A radial compressor impeller is positioned radially inwardly of the fan blades. The radial compressor impeller has an upstream inlet which extends generally in an axial direction defined by an axis of rotation of the hub. The radial flow compressor impeller has an outlet that extends radially outwardly of the inlet, and into a supply passage for supplying air to a core engine. An engine is also disclosed.

A variable inlet guide vane assembly includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced inlet guide vanes mounted to pivot to change an angle of the guide vanes relative to an air flow. An actuator actuates the plurality of inlet guide vanes to change the angle, and is positioned radially inward of the inlet guide vanes.

Disclosed, amongst other things, is a back-up device that is configured to provide a structural support, in use, between a manifold and a housing member within a melt distribution apparatus of an injection molding system. The back-up device is associated, in use, with a valve-gate apparatus within a nozzle drop. The back-up device includes a cold-side member formed from a first material and a hot-side member formed from a second material. The first material is more thermally conductive than the second material. The cold-side member is configured to be thermally connectable, in use, with the housing member and the hot-side member. The hot-side member is configured to be thermally connectable, in use, with the manifold and the cold-side member. The hot-side member is also configured to prevent the cold-side member from directly contacting the manifold.

Disclosed is a safety connector for a hot runner having a valve stem and an actuation plate, the safety connector including: (i) a latch releasably interlocking the valve stem with the actuation plate so that in response to movement of the actuation plate, the valve stem becomes movable; and (ii) a latch mover being cooperative with the latch, and the latch mover being configured to move the latch responsive to a predetermined force acting on the valve stem so that so that the valve stem is released from the actuation plate.

Disclosed is a hot-runner nozzle system, including: (i) a nozzle housing being configured to convey a molten molding material, (ii) a sieve being coupled with the nozzle housing, (iii) a nozzle tip being securely coupled relative to the sieve, and (iv) a retainer securely extending from the sieve, the retainer connecting with the nozzle tip.

An improved nozzle for high melt pressure applications includes an inner body portion having a melt channel, the inner body portion having an inlet face and a melt outlet; an outer body portion having a seal face, with the outer body portion inducing a compressive force on the inner body portion at least during operation of the nozzle; the plane of the inlet face of the inner body portion intersecting the outer body portion, resulting in no part of the inner body portion extending beyond the seal face of the outer body portion; and the inner and outer body portions having different relative thermal conduction and expansion coefficients.
