Abstract:
The system has a shim (38) for defining a gap between a bumper pad and a bumper (32). A pin (36) prevents rotation of the bumper relative to a synchronizing ring and a fastener (30) e.g. screw or bolt fully traps the shim. The fastener includes a thread at one end and passes through a bore in the bumper and through a hole in the ring. The fastener has a sleeve (34) passing through the ring.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a bumper system for use with a compressor variable vane system. The bumper system broadly comprises a synchronizing ring, a bumper, a shim for defining a gap between a bumper pad and the bumper, a pin for preventing rotation of the bumper relative to the synchronizing ring, and a device for fully trapping t he shim. In a first embodiment, the device for fully trapping the shim comprises a sleeve passin g through the synchronizing ring. In a second embodiment, the device for fully trapping th e shim comprises a pin which passes through the synchronizing body. In a third embodiment, the device for fully trapping the shim comprises a fastener with a shoulder.
