Gary Valencourt - Niles MI, US
International Classification:
F02C 1/00
F02C 7/20
US Classification:
060739000, 060796000
Abstract:
A fuel distributor () and mounting arrangement that helps support the weight of the fuel distributor () during removal and replacement for improved maintainability. The mounting arrangement includes a hanger () mountable on a first support which hanger () includes a slot (), and a manifold () separate from the hanger () that has a first side () with a plurality of ports () arranged in a first configuration. The manifold () is connectable to a plurality of fluid lines on an engine (). A fuel distributor body () has a first surface, a second surface spaced from the first surface and a third surface between the first surface and the second surface with a hanging cleat () projecting from the first surface that is configured to be received within the slot (). The third surface has a main fuel inlet () and a plurality of additional fluid ports () arranged in the same configuration as the ports on the manifold (). A mounting pin () projects from the third surface. Also a method of mounting a fuel distributor.

Secondary Flow Lockout Valve

View page
US Patent:
20210355882, Nov 18, 2021
Filed:
May 12, 2020
Appl. No.:
15/930218
Inventors:
- Morris Plains NJ, US
Gary Valencourt - Niles MI, US
Paul Futa - North Liberty IN, US
Assignee:
HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. - Morris Plains NJ
International Classification:
F02C 9/26
F02C 7/232
F02C 7/26
Abstract:
A fuel system for a gas turbine engine includes a secondary flow lockout valve. The secondary flow lockout valve includes a valve body having a first end that defines an inlet and a second end. The valve body includes at least one primary outlet bore and at least one secondary outlet bore. The valve body defines a channel in fluid communication with the primary outlet bore. The secondary flow lockout valve includes a cover that cooperates with the second end of the valve body to define a chamber. The chamber is in fluid communication with the channel such that the valve body is movable between at least a first position in which the primary outlet bore is open and a second position in which both the primary outlet bore and the secondary outlet bore are open based on a pressure in the chamber.

Aircraft Turboprop Engine Propeller Pitch Control System Including A Controllable Feather Valve

View page
US Patent:
20200255123, Aug 13, 2020
Filed:
Feb 8, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/271276
Inventors:
- Morris Plains NJ, US
Hannah Amor - South Bend IN, US
Gary A. Valencourt - Niles MI, US
Christopher Douglas Eick - Phoenix AZ, US
Donald Striker - Chandler AZ, US
Kevin Baker - Tempe AZ, US
Jonathan Seeley - Phoenix AZ, US
Assignee:
HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. - Morris Plains NJ
International Classification:
B64C 11/38
F01D 7/00
B64C 11/44
Abstract:
A propeller pitch control system for a turboprop engine of an aircraft includes a negative torque sensor, a full feather control valve assembly, and a feather valve assembly. The feather valve assembly is responsive to fluid pressures from the negative torque sensor and the control valve assembly to move between a plurality of positions. An engine control unit or a manual user interface can also be used to control the position of the feather.

Additively-Manufactured Flow Restrictors And Methods For The Fabrication Thereof

View page
US Patent:
20200023433, Jan 23, 2020
Filed:
Jul 17, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/037382
Inventors:
- Morris Plains NJ, US
Gary A. Valencourt - Niles MI, US
Yathiraj Kasal - Bangalore, IN
Sammuel Tillich - South Bend IN, US
Elliot Conrad - Decatur IN, US
Michael J. Spier - Three Rivers MI, US
Assignee:
HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. - Morris Plains NJ
International Classification:
B22F 3/105
B22F 5/10
F16L 55/027
Abstract:
Additively-manufactured flow restrictors are provided, as are methods for producing additively-manufactured flow restrictors. In various embodiments, the additively-manufactured flow restrictor includes a flowbody through which a flow path extends, a restricted orifice located in the flowbody and providing a predetermined resistance to fluid flowing along the flow path in a first flow direction, and a first internal perforated screen positioned in the flow path upstream of the restricted orifice taken in the first flow direction. The flowbody and the first internal perforated screen integrally formed as a single additively-manufactured piece utilizing, for example, Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) or another additive manufacturing process. In certain embodiments, the first internal perforated screen may include an endwall and a peripheral sidewall, which is integrally formed with the endwall and spaced from an inner circumferential surface of the flowbody by an annular clearance.

In-Line Continuous Flow Liquid-Gas Separator-Pump

US Patent:
20160305440, Oct 20, 2016
Filed:
Apr 16, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/688484
Inventors:
- Morristown NJ, US
Richard Rateick - South Bend IN, US
Christopher Gedeon - South Bend IN, US
Gary A. Valencourt - Niles MI, US
Assignee:
HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. - Morristown NJ
International Classification:
F04D 29/22
F04D 1/00
B01D 19/00
Abstract:
An in-line continuous flow liquid-gas separator-pump includes a housing, a rotor, a plurality of tubular flow passages, and a plurality of gas flow passages. The rotor includes a rotor first end, a rotor second end, an outer surface, and an inner surface that defines an inner chamber in fluid communication with the purge gas outlet. The tubular flow passages are formed in the rotor and extend between the rotor first end and the rotor second end. Each tubular flow passage includes a fluid inlet that is disposed adjacent the rotor first end and in fluid communication with the liquid/gas inlet, and a fluid outlet that is disposed adjacent the rotor second end and is in fluid communication with the liquid outlet. The gas flow passages are formed in the rotor, and each provides fluid communication between one of the tubular flow passages and the inner chamber.
