VANE MULTIPLET WITH CONJOINED SINGLET VANES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240044258 titled 'VANE MULTIPLET WITH CONJOINED SINGLET VANES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a vane multiplet that consists of two ceramic matrix composite (CMC) singlet vanes arranged next to each other. Each singlet vane has an airfoil section and a platform at one end. The platform has forward and trailing edges, as well as circumferential side edges. The singlet vanes are joined together by a CMC overwrap, which includes fused fiber plies on the platforms.

  • The patent application is for a vane multiplet made of ceramic matrix composite (CMC) singlet vanes.
  • Each singlet vane has an airfoil section and a platform at one end.

Original Abstract Submitted

a vane multiplet includes first and second ceramic matrix composite (cmc) singlet vanes that are arranged circumferentially adjacent each other. each of the cmc singlet vanes includes an airfoil section and a platform at one end of the airfoil section. the platform defines forward and trailing platform edges and first and second circumferential side edges. a cmc overwrap conjoins the cmc singlet vanes. the cmc overwrap includes fiber plies that are fused to the platforms of the cmc singlet vanes.
