Turbine exhaust case and bearing housing assembly

An exhaust case assembly for a gas turbine engine, comprising:

• a turbine exhaust case (TEC) having an outer case extending around a central axis, an inner case concentrically disposed inside the outer case, an annular exhaust gas path radially between the outer case and the inner case, and a plurality of circumferentially spaced-apart struts extending across the annular exhaust gas path and structurally connecting the inner case to the outer case;
• and
• a pair of bearings including a first bearing and a second bearing housed in a common bearing housing concentrically disposed inside the inner case of the TEC, the bearing housing having a tubular body extending around the central axis from a first axial end to a second axial end, the first bearing and the second bearing respectively disposed at the first axial end and the second axial end of the tubular body, the bearing housing integrally formed with an outer annular flange, the outer annular flange having:
• a first segment projecting radially outwardly from the tubular body at an intermediate axial location between the first bearing and the second bearing,
• a second segment projecting axially forwardly from the first segment to a distal end spaced axially forwardly from the intermediate axial location, and
• a third segment projecting radially outwardly from the distal end of the second segment to a radially outer circumferential surface disposed axially between the first bearing and the second bearing,
• the radially outer circumferential surface of the third segment joined to a corresponding radially inner circumferential surface of a mating flange projecting radially inwardly from the inner case of the TEC.
