Abstract

Since a wall part of a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a cylindrical flange projecting integrally from an outer periphery of a spark plug fitting hole, and a spark plug support device covering an extremity of a spark plug is welded or brazed to the flange, a welded or brazed site of the device is above the flange lower in temperature than the wall part, and it is possible to suppress decrease in strength at the welded or brazed site and to improve durability, and also to reduce cost since a shape of the device may be coincided with a simple shape of the flange and machining of the device becomes easy. Since the flange is formed integrally with the wall part, compared with a case where the flange is formed from a separate member, the number of components and machining steps is decreased, enabling further cost reduction.
