Sheet metal components formed by press molding commonly have narrow elastic deformation regions and are therefore highly rigid yet plastically deformable.To reduce plastic deformation either the sheet thickness must be increased or a material having a wider elastic deformation range must be used.However increasing the sheet thickness more than is needed from the standpoint of strength is contradictory to the requirements that portable devices be thin small and lightweight.Therefore it is preferable to use a material having a wide elastic deformation region but moldability is reduced in this case.The structure of the present invention can be formed using a metal material whose elastic deformation region is within a range that allows the shape of the boxshaped metal structure 100 to be obtained and the plastic deformation of the metal structure 100 is reduced at the same time by the use of the resin shell 200.Specifically since the peripheral ribs 102 and the peripheral resin ribs 206 deform in integral fashion the peripheral ribs 102 are not likely to add to the load distribution of the peripheral resin ribs or to buckle when subjected for example to a bending load and the amount of plastic deformation is therefore far less than it would be with only one set of ribs.

In operation of the engine shown in Figure 1 parts of the core engine air flow A may be diverted through the bleed assembly 30 in order to optimise the performance of the respective compressors 14 15.This is achieved by opening the bleed valve 34 of the respective bleed assembly 30.The open bleed valve 34 permits air at high pressure to pass through the casing structure 29 into the housing 36.Although the introduced air can pass through the silencer element 46 a pressure drop is nevertheless established across the silencer element 46 which displaces it away from the bleed valve 34 against the resilience of the spring in the springdamper unit 52.The entire discharge outlet member 38 is thus displaced from the retracted condition shown in Figure 2 to theextended position shown in Figure 3 in which the end wall 32 is situated away from the inner wall 27.Consequently air from the compressor 14 15 flowing through the bypass valve 34 passes across the silencer element 46 into the discharge outlet member 38 and thence through the slots 48 into the bypass flow B in the bypass duct 22.The lower ends of the slots 48 are spaced above the inner wall 27 and so the relatively hot discharging flow from the discharge outlet member 38 enters the bypass flow B away from the inner and outer walls 26 27 and consequently is able to mix with the cooler bypass flow B before contact with the inner and outer walls 26 27 so avoiding direct impingement of the hot bleed air flow with the surfaces of the walls 26 27.
