IPC: F01D9/02
Filed: 2014-03-04
Abstract: An integrated strut and turbine vane nozzle (ISV) has inner and outer annular duct walls defining an annular flow passage therebetween. Circumferentially spaced-apart struts extend radially across the flow passage. Circumferentially spaced-apart vanes also extend radially across the flow passage and define a plurality of inter-vane passages. Each of the struts is integrated to an associated one of the vanes to form therewith an integrated strut-vane airfoil. The inter-vane passages on either side of the integrated strut-vane airfoil may be adjusted for aerodynamic considerations. The vanes may be made separately from the struts and manufactured such as to cater for potential misalignments between the parts.

Patent CA-2862663-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PFANNER ANTON
IPC: A42B3/14
Filed: 2012-12-19
Abstract: What is described is a protective helmet comprising a helmet shell in which interior fittings are fixed which comprise an assembly contacting the head comprised of a supporting cage (42), a head band (44) und a neck strap. The interior fitting subassembly comprises three support arms (54, 55, 56) protruding laterally downwards from the supporting cage (42) in the temple areas or backwards and downwards in the area of the back of the head and formed as spacers as a means for a fixation on the helmet shell. In this way, the interior fitting subassembly is continuously held in a distance from the helmet shell along its entire outer circumference. A clearance which is therefore present around the interior fitting subassembly on all sides renders a relative dislocation of the helmet shell relative to the interior fitting subassembly possible. The free ends of the support arms (54, 55, 56) are releasably at-tached to the helmet shell, respectively. The releasable fixation of the support arm (56) protruding backwards and downwards comprises a latch lock effective in its longitudinal direction on a rear mounting point on the helmet shell, and, in addition, a suspension or support effective in its transverse direction in an additional mounting point positioned above the latch lock on the inside of the helmet shell. This results in an optimum introduction of force into the helmet shell and renders a relative dislocation of the helmet shell and therefore an optimum shock absorption by the helmet shell in combination with the interior fitting subassembly possible when a force both from above and from the side is applied to the helmet.
