Patent ID: 8147184

Claim:
An air tapping circuit arrangement of a compressor stage of a turbojet, said compressor stage comprising a movable bladed wheel having movable blades and a fixed bladed wheel having fixed blades, said circuit arrangement comprising: a movable wheel manifold designed to collect an air flow aspirated from the movable blades, said movable wheel manifold being in fluid communication with a first plurality of tapping orifices facing said movable bladed wheel and provided on an outer casing of said compressor stage; and a fixed wheel manifold designed to collect an air flow aspirated from the fixed blades, said fixed wheel manifold being in fluid communication with a second plurality of tapping orifices facing said fixed bladed wheel and provided on said outer casing of said compressor stage; and an adapter part including a first duct section extending in a substantially radial direction, a second duct section extending in a substantially transverse direction, a third duct section, and a substantially cylindrical body which extends about said first duct section, said first duct section being only in fluid communication with said movable wheel manifold, and said second and third duct sections being only in fluid communication with said fixed wheel manifold, wherein said movable wheel manifold is placed on a periphery of said compressor stage facing said movable wheel and said fixed wheel manifold is superposed on said movable wheel manifold, wherein a first end of said first duct section is connected to said movable wheel manifold and a second end of said first duct section is connected to a first conveyor pipe which conveys air tapped from said movable blades to other portions of said turbojet, wherein said second duct section is divided into two halves which connect on either side of said body, a first end of each of said halves is connected to said body and a second end of each of said halves is connected to said fixed wheel manifold, and wherein a first end of said third duct section is connected to said body so as to be in fluid communication with said second duct section and a second end of said third duct section is connected to a second conveyor pipe which conveys air tapped from said fixed blades to other portions of said turbojet.
