A mounting system for an annular internal fuel manifold of a gas turbine engine includes three supports equally spaced apart about the annular fuel manifold, the three supports having at least two pin supports disposed between the fuel manifold and a surrounding gas generator casing. Each pin support includes a radially extending pin co-operating with an aligned ring slidingly disposed around the pin for relative sliding displacement therebetween. The pin supports providing axial constraint while permitting the fuel manifold to radially displace relative to the surrounding gas generator casing due to thermal size change.

The invention claimed is: 1. A fuel injection system for gas turbine engine including a compressor, a combustor and a turbine, comprising: an annular internal fuel manifold disposed adjacent the combustor within a surrounding gas generator casing, the fuel manifold having at least one fuel conveying passage therein in fluid flow communication with a plurality of fuel injection nozzles disposed along the fuel manifold and adapted to spray fuel into the combustor; and a mounting system supporting and positioning the fuel manifold relative to the combustor within said gas generator casing, the mounting system including three supports equally spaced apart by approximately 120 degrees about the annular fuel manifold, the three supports including only two pin supports and a single radially extending fuel inlet providing fuel flow to the fuel conveying passage, the two pin supports and the fuel inlet disposed between the fuel manifold and the gas generator casing, each of the two pin supports including a radially extending pin co-operating with an aligned lug slidingly disposed around the pin for relative sliding displacement therebetween, said pin having an outer end removably engaged to the gas generator casing such that the pin is replaceable, the outer end of the pin being threaded and received within a corresponding threaded boss defined in an inner surface of the gas generator casing, the pin supports providing axial constraint while permitting the fuel manifold to radially displace relative to the surrounding gas generator casing due to thermal size change, and the fuel inlet providing both fuel flow to the fuel conveying passage and load bearing support for the fuel manifold ring. 2. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 1, wherein the fuel inlet provides axial constraint while permitting the fuel manifold to radially displace relative to the surrounding gas generator casing. 3. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 2, wherein the fuel inlet is received within a corresponding bushing within the gas generator casing, the fuel inlet being slidingly displaceable in a radially direction within said bushing. 4. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 2, wherein the fuel inlet and the two pin supports all bear axial and radial loads to support the fuel manifold. 5. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 4, wherein the two pin supports bear a majority of the axial and radial loads to support the fuel manifold when the gas turbine engine is in a normal flight attitude. 6. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 1, wherein the fuel inlet is disposed at a lowermost point of the annular fuel manifold. 7. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 1, wherein the radially extending pin and the co-operating lug of said pin supports are respectively engaged to the gas generator casing and the fuel manifold, the pin and the lug being slidingly displaceable relative to each other. 8. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 1, wherein an inner end projects radially inwardly from the outer end of the pin, the inner end of the pin being received within a corresponding opening in the lug. 9. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 1, wherein an anti-rotation ring is mounted to the pin such as to prevent unwanted rotation thereof within the boss of the gas generator casing. 10. A fuel injection system for a gas turbine engine including a compressor, a combustor and a turbine, comprising: an annular internal fuel manifold disposed within a gas generator casing of the gas turbine engine; and a mounting system for supporting and positioning the fuel manifold within the gas generator casing relative to the combustor, the mounting system including only three supports equally spaced apart about the annular fuel manifold, the three supports including two pin supports and a single fuel inlet, the two pin supports each including a radially extending pin and a corresponding lug, the lug being disposed on the fuel manifold in alignment with the pins and having an opening defined therein, an outer end of each said pin having a means for fastening the pin to said gas generator casing and an inner end thereof projecting radially inwardly when the outer end is fastened to said gas generator casing, said means for fastening include a thread cooperating with a corresponding threaded boss defined in an inner surface of the gas generator casing and within which the outer end is received, and the inner end of the pin being received within the opening of the lug such that relative sliding displacement therebetween is permitted along a longitudinal axis of said pin, said lug and said pin thereby mating together to define a support for said fuel manifold which provides axial constraint while permitting radial thermal expansion. 11. The fuel injection system as defined in claim 10, further comprising an anti-rotation ring mounted to the pin such as to prevent unwanted rotation thereof relative to the gas generator casing.
