    摘要: A tripod joint assembly for connecting first and second overlapping panel segments of a flowpath liner in a gas turbine engine includes a threaded fastener extending through an opening in the first overlapping panel segment and adjacent to an outer segment edge of the second overlapping panel segment disposed on the first overlapping segment. The assembly further includes a tripod plate having first and second plate edges and an access hole therebetween. The first plate edge contacts the first overlapping panel segment, the second plate edge contacts the outer segment edge of the second overlapping panel segment. The access hole is disposed around the threaded fastener. First and second washers are disposed around the threaded fastener, the first washer on the tripod plate opposite to the overlapping panel segments, and the second washer on the first washer opposite to the tripod plate. A threaded locknut secures the assembly.

    摘要: A spoolie manifold including two or more spaced apart caps including outlets and one pair of caps connected together in flow communication by a jumper tube assembly. Jumper tube assembly including a jumper tube having first and second spoolies attached to opposite ends of the jumper tube. Ends may be welded into counterbores of the spoolies having spherical spoolie ends press-fitted into first and second sleeves in bores in pair of the caps and sleeves retained in bores with retainer clips. A duct connected in flow communication to an inlet of one of the caps. Spoolie manifold may include three spaced apart caps including a distributor cap between two port caps connected in flow communication to distributor cap by jumper tube assembly. Cap outlets may be feed strut ports in casing of turbine frame including hub spaced inwardly from casing and having spaced apart hollow struts with strut ports.
