Part-holding device in a repairing method for a blade of a monobloc bladed disc in a turbo-machine

1. A part-holding device in a method for repairing a blade of a monobloc bladed disc in a turbo-machine, through electron-beam welding of a patch onto the blade along a junction plane, the device comprising:

a disc supporting device which supports the disc; and

an adjustable holding device which holds both the blade and the patch horizontally, the adjustable holding device comprising a platen which supports the adjustable holding device arranged so that a space located above the junction plane allows for an electron beam to pass,

wherein the platen includes a supporting plane which supports the adjustable holding device,

wherein the adjustable holding device includes a blade pinching device which pinches the blade, a patch adjusting device which adjusts height and slope of the patch, a patch abutting device which abuts the patch against the blade, and a patch latching device which latches the patch in height,

wherein the blade pinching device includes first and second blade supporting screws and first and second pegs, the first and second blade supporting screws are provided on the supporting plane and abut under the blade, and the first and second pegs press against the blade from above and are disposed on a pivoting arm connected to the platen,

wherein the patch adjusting device includes first, second and third plots provided on the supporting plane which hold the patch from below and adjust the height and slope of the patch, the first, second and third plots are distributed as a triangle so as to support the patch in a vicinity of each corner thereof, the first, second and third plots are adjustable in height,

wherein the patch adjusting device includes fourth and fifth plots which are rotationally mounted on the supporting plane and abut edges of the patch that do not form the junction plane such that the patch is pushed towards the blade and is maintained in contact with the blade, the fourth and fifth plots each includes an off-axis bore through which a fixed stem integral with the supporting plane is inserted, and

wherein the patch latching device includes a latching screw which abuts the patch from above, the latching screw is supported by a rotating arm disposed on the supporting plane.

2. A device according to claim 1 , further comprising an adjustable heels holding device which holds heels disposed on the patch.

3. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the adjustable holding device is manually adjustable.

4. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the disc supporting device includes a mandrel to which the disc is secured.

5. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the platen is removable.

6. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second blade supporting screws include a bulged shaped surface which comes into contact with the blade.

7. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second pegs are attached to the pivoting arm through a ball-and-socket link.

8. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the supporting plane which supports the adjustable holding device is substantially horizontal.

9. A device according to claim 2 , wherein the adjustable heels holding device includes an in-height adjusting device and an in-height latching device.

10. A device according to claim 4 , further comprising an angularly latching device which angularly latches the disc.

11. A device according to claim 4 , further comprising a plate which latches in height the disc.

12. A device according to claim 7 , wherein the first and second pegs, are linked through the ball-and-socket link to a pendulum pivotally mounted at the end of the pivoting arm.

13. A device according to claim 9 , wherein the in-height adjusting device includes at least one flat nut.

14. A device according to claim 9 , wherein the in-height latching device includes at least one pivoting arm.

15. A device according to claim 10 , wherein the angularly latching device includes a blade abutting plot which abuts the blade.
