Method for holding an adapter piece on a tubular housing of a turbo engine, and corresponding adapter piece and holding system
View Patent ↗An adapting part is designed to be held on a casing of a turbo-engine, partially covering the casing. The adapting part includes, in the extension of one of its axial ends, a first connector to engage with a first complementary connector associated with the casing to form a sliding connection. The adapting part also includes, at its other axial end, a second connector to be secured to a second complementary connector associated with the casing to form a rigid connection.
1. An adapting part designed to transmit forces between a tubular casing of a turbo-engine and a suspension of the turbo-engine to a pylon of an aircraft, by partially covering the tubular casing, the adapting part comprising:
a hoop portion of predetermined angular sector;
suspension devises arranged on a face of the hoop portion which faces outwards and designed to connect the adapting part to the suspension;
in an extension of a first axial end of the adapting part, a projecting tab extending axially from the hoop portion and configured to engage with a groove of a connecting member associated with said tubular casing to form an axial sliding connection; and
at a second axial end of the adapting part, a flange configured to be secured to a flange of said tubular casing to form a rigid connection,
wherein the projecting tab is entirely circular or extends circumferentially over the predetermined angular sector.
2. The adapting part as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the flange is entirely circular or extends circumferentially over the predetermined angular sector.
3. The adapting part as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the predetermined angular sector of the hoop portion is equal to 120°.
4. A system, comprising:
an adapting part comprising:
a hoop portion of predetermined angular sector;
suspension devises arranged on a face of the hoop portion which faces outwards and designed to connect the adapting part to the suspension;
in an extension of a first axial end of the adapting part, a projecting tab extending axially from the hoop portion; and
at a second axial end of the adapting part, a flange,
wherein the projecting tab is entirely circular or extends circumferentially over the predetermined angular sector:
a tubular casing of a turbo-engine arranged for holding, to the tubular casing, the adapting part;
a groove of a connecting member associated with said tubular casing which engages with the projecting tab of the adapting part to form an axial sliding connection in a first axial end of the tubular casing; and
a flange of said tubular casing which engages with the flange of the adapting part to form a rigid connection in a second axial end of the tubular casing.
5. The system as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the connecting member is fitted on one end flange of said tubular casing.
6. The system as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the connecting member radially extends to one end flange of said tubular casing.
7. A suspension for a turbo-engine on a pylon of an aircraft, comprising:
a front suspension bracket mounted on an intermediate casing of the turbo-engine;
a rear suspension bracket mounted on an inter-turbine casing of the turbo-engine; and
wherein an adapting part as claimed in claim 1 connects the rear suspension bracket to the inter-turbine casing of the turbo-engine.
8. A turbo-engine attached to a pylon of an aircraft, comprising:
a front suspension bracket mounted on an intermediate casing of the turbo-engine;
a rear suspension bracket mounted on an inter-turbine casing of the turbo-engine; and
a system as claimed in claim 4 ,
wherein the adapting part of the system connects the rear suspension bracket to the inter-turbine casing of the turbo-engine.
