Patent attributes
According to the present invention, an annular face seal arrangement for a gas turbine engine is provided that includes a mounting ring, a mounting member, a rotor, and a stator. The mounting ring has a width extending between a first axial end and a second axial end. The mounting member has a clamp portion and a biasing portion. The clamp portion extends axially between a first clamping surface and a second clamping surface. The biasing portion includes a first segment and a second segment. The second segment has a width and a rotor contact surface. The rotor has a rotor seal surface and a clamp portion having a width. The stator has a stator seal surface that is aligned with the rotor seal surface. The mounting ring is disposed radially inside of the rotor and radially inside of at least part of the biasing portion, and is disposed in contact with the second clamping surface of the clamp portion. The rotor contact surface of the biasing portion is disposed in contact with the rotor.
