ABSTRACT:
A gas turbine engine bearing support structure comprises a central hub which carries a bearing and which is supported by a plurality of spokes from a ring member. The majority of the spokes are radially extending so that each is perpendicular to an imaginary tangent at its point of intersection with the ring member. However, two of the spokes are not perpendicular but are inclined so that compressive loading on the spokes results in partial rotation of the central hub, thereby leading to compressive loads in the non-inclined spokes being partially relieved by localised bending.
