US Patent 11591920 Vane arc segment with curved radial flange

A vane arc segment includes an airfoil piece that defines first and second platforms and a airfoil section that extends between the first and second platforms. The airfoil section has a trailing edge, a leading edge, a pressure side, and a suction side. The platforms each define first and second circumferential mate faces, forward and aft sides, a gaspath side, a non-gaspath side, and a radial flange that projects from the non-gaspath side. Each radial flange extends continuously and includes a first leg portion that extends adjacent the trailing edge, a second leg portion that extends from the first leg portion and curves around the suction side, and a third leg portion that extends from the second leg portion toward the forward side.
