Abstract

A securing part structure of a turbine nozzle provided with a plurality of turbine nozzle segments, each having a plurality of stator vanes, arranged annularly around an axis of a jet engine and secured between a turbine case and a shroud of the jet engine, wherein in the turbine nozzle segment, an arc-shaped outer band coupling distal ends of the plurality of stator vanes to each other is provided, a hook of the outer band is engaged with a nozzle support groove of the turbine case from behind, a recessed portion of the outer band is fitted with an anti-rotation tab from behind, and an anti-rotation slot formed in the shroud is fitted with a protruding portion from behind so that the turbine nozzle segment is secured between the turbine case and the shroud. Reduction of performance loss and extension of a life of the turbine case can be realized.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A securing part structure of a turbine nozzle provided with a plurality of turbine nozzle segments, each having a plurality of stator vanes, arranged annularly around an axis of a jet engine and secured between a turbine case and a shroud of the jet engine, wherein
in the turbine nozzle segment, an arc-shaped outer band coupling each of distal ends of stator vanes on a side opposite to the axis to each other is provided;
on the outer band in the turbine nozzle segment, a hook engaged with a nozzle support groove formed on the turbine case, a recessed portion fitted with an anti-rotation tab secured to the turbine case, and a protruding portion protruding toward a rear of the jet engine, in conformity to a recess of the recessed portion, on a back side of this recessed portion, are formed; and
the turbine nozzle segment engages the hook of the outer band with the nozzle support groove of the turbine case from behind the jet engine and also fits the recessed portion of the outer band with the anti-rotation tab from behind the jet engine and fits an anti-rotation slot formed on the shroud with the protruding portion formed on the back side of the recessed portion from behind the jet engine, whereby the turbine nozzle segment is secured between the turbine case and the shroud.

2. A turbine in which the securing part structure of a turbine nozzle according to claim 1 is used for a securing part structure of the turbine nozzle constituting a turbine in a jet engine.
