Abstract:
A support structure in a gas turbine engine including an inner annular wall and an outer annular wall defining an annular flow path, a casing housing the structure defining the flow path, and a bearing compartment housing a rotor shaft bearing located radially inwardly from the inner annular wall. The support structure includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced radial support members extending radially inwardly from an outer mount connection at the casing to an inner mount connection at the bearing compartment housing. The radial support members provide structural support for radial bearing loads on the rotor shaft bearing. A plurality of circumferentially spaced axial support members extend radially and axially inwardly from an outer mount connection at the casing to an inner mount connection located on an annular structure extending radially between connection locations at the bearing compartment housing and the inner annular wall.
