IMPROVED DEVICE FOR ATTACHING BLADES IN A CONTRA-ROTATING TURBINE

Counter-rotating turbine (C) of a turbomachine (10) extending about an axis (X) and comprising an inner rotor configured to rotate about the axis of rotation (X), and comprising an inner drum on which an inner movable blading (22) is fixed, an outer rotor configured to rotate about the axis of rotation (X) in a direction opposite to the inner rotor, and comprising an outer drum (50) on which an outer movable blading (20) is fixed, the outer movable blading (20) comprising at least one fixing rod (212) extending through an orifice (51) of the outer drum (50), the outer movable blading (20) being fixed to the outer drum (50) via a clamping means (100) fixed to the fixing rod (212) from an outer face of the outer drum (50), a set ring (80) being disposed around the fixing rod (50) in the orifice (51) of the outer drum (50).

Blade retainer for gas turbine engine

A blade retainer adapted for use in a gas turbine engine is configured to block axial movement of a blade. The blade retainer includes a first brace, a second brace, and a web that extends between the first brace and the second brace. The blade retainer is configured to block axial movement of a root of the blade out of a blade receiver slot.

ROTOR ARRANGEMENT FOR A ROTOR OF A GAS TURBINE

A rotor arrangement for a rotor of a gas turbine includes at least one rotor disk with attachment slots for carrying rotor blades and an annular groove having an annular opening towards the outward direction; and rotor blades having an airfoil and a blade root and assembled in an attachment slot. Each of the assembled blade roots have a root extension with a root groove. The root groove faces the annular groove when the rotor blade is assembled in the attachment slot. For each assembled rotor blade a locking element is provided, the locking element engaging the annular groove of the rotor disk and the root groove of the respective rotor blade. Preferably all locking elements are embodied as a locking sheet metal strip, which has two bended tongues embracing the respective root extension.

Locking spacer assembly, corresponding blade assembly, method for installing a locking spacer

A locking spacer assembly for filling a final spacer slot in a disk groove between platforms of adjacent blades of a blade assembly in an industrial gas turbine engine is presented. The locking spacer assembly includes a first side piece, a second side piece, a mid piece and a bolt. The bolt is disposed into the mid piece to position the mid piece in a radial position in an assembled state. The mid piece contacts the first side piece and the second side piece in the assembled state to prevent axial movements of the first and second side pieces in the disk groove. The bolt prevents a radial movement of the mid piece.
