Components for gas turbine engines
First Claim
1. A component for a gas turbine engine having an engine axis, the component comprising:
- a rotor disk comprising;
a web having a first outer surface at least partially defining a plurality of holes and a plurality of slots, each of the plurality of slots extending from a corresponding one of the plurality of holes and forming a first angle with the engine axis at the point of intersection with the corresponding one of the plurality of holes; and
a rim having a second outer surface at least partially defining the plurality of slots, each of the plurality of slots forming a second angle with the engine axis at the second outer surface, the second angle being different from the first angle; and
a plurality of airfoils extending from the second outer surface.

Abstract
A component for a gas turbine engine having an engine axis includes a rotor disk and a plurality of airfoils. The rotor disk comprises a web and a rim. The web has a first outer surface at least partially defining a plurality of holes and a plurality of slots. Each of the plurality of slots extends from a corresponding one of the plurality of holes and forms a first angle with the engine axis at the point of intersection with the corresponding one of the plurality of holes. The rim has a second outer surface also at least partially defining the plurality of slots. Each of the plurality of slots forms a second angle with the engine axis at the second outer surface, the second angle being different from the first angle. Each of the plurality of airfoils extends from the second outer surface.
