Retaining structure for the compressor housing of a turbo engine

Abstract

Abstract 1. Retaining structure for the casing of the compressor of a turbo machine with twin flow intended to provide : - the connection between an air inlet duct disposed upstream and an intermediate casing disposed downstream ; - the retention of fragments following a fracture of the rotating part ; - sealing at the blade tips, and comprising a sealing ring and sandwich type of structure composed of a central core constituted by a honeycomb lying between two skins, characterized in this that successively in the radial direction, from the interior outwardly : - the sealing ring (11) is constituted by a monobloc support (12) coated with a separate wear layer (13), the said support (12) being detachable ; - in the sandwich type structure (6), the internal skin (71) is made of impregnated foil and is provided, substantially opposite to the tips of the blades (4), in order to accommodate the fluidtight seal (11), the external skin (90) is of metal and has a reinforcement constituted by at least one rib (15) disposed between the two skins (71, 90) in a radial location, in the zone swept by the rotor blades and extended from the inside by a sleeve (15a) forming a cylindrical ring, connecting flanges (2, 3) at the junction with the inlet duct and at the junction with the intermediate casing being provided at the ends in association with the outer metal skin (90), - an external layer (5) of reinforcement of a fibrous composite material is added constituted by a synthetic resin in which is embedded a winding of polyimide fibres.
