Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus for controlling the pivoting vanes of a turbomachine, and in particular, to an apparatus for controlling the pivoting vanes in a synchronized manner. Background technique
[0002] On turbines, it is known to employ one or more stages of stator blades to adjust the airflow and the direction of gas flow through the compression section according to the speed at which the turbine is operating. These stator blade stages include a plurality of blades (also known as variable pitch blades) that are pivotable about an axis connecting them to the stator so that their pitch angle can be modified according to the speed at which the turbine is operating.
[0003] Known means for controlling the pivoting vanes of a turbine generally comprise a plurality of pivotable vanes azimuthally distributed at an angle of at least 90° about the axis of the turbine, the pivotable vanes being oriented generally radially with respect t...
