The invention relates to comprising a blade body (9) made of composite material having a polymer matrix reinforced by fibers and a leading edge shield (10) made of material having greater ability to withstand point impacts than the composite material of the blade body. The leading edge shield (10) is assembled on the blade body (9) by means of a first adhesive (16) and a second adhesive (17), both adhesives (16, 17) being deposited between the blade body (9) and the leading edge shield (10). Both adhesives (16, 17) form respective continuous films between the blade body (9) and the leading edge shield (10).

The invention relates to a fluid pump, in particular to a liquid pump having a rotor with at last one rotor blade for conveying the fluid, the rotor being variable with respect to its diameter between a first, compressed state and a second expanded state. In order to produce a simple compressibility and expandability of the rotor of the pump, it is provided according to the invention that at least one rotor blade is deformable between a first state which it assumes in the compressed state of the rotor and a second state which it assumes in the expanded state of the rotor by means of a fluid counterpressure during a rotation of the rotor during pump operation.
