  • Axial-flow machine
    Patent number: 9551235
    Abstract: The invention relates to an axial flow machine, in particular a gas turbine with axial hot gas flow. Gaps between rotor-side heat shields are blocked by easily mountable sealing strips, which are arranged with their longitudinal edges in opposing grooves in the side walls of the respective gap.
    Type: Grant

  • Turbine blade
    Patent number: 9316105
    Abstract: A blade for a rotor of a turbine includes an airfoil, a shroud and a platform. The platform includes a top plate, a shank and a fixing part. An upstream wall projects in the circumferential direction away from the shank and extends from the top plate toward the fixing part, the upstream wall at least partially covering an upstream side of the shank. A downstream wall projects in the circumferential direction away from the shank and extends from the top plate toward the fixing part, the downstream wall at least partially covering a downstream side of the shank. A recess is disposed in at least one of the upstream wall and the downstream wall. The recess has an open side facing in a same direction as a respective one of the upstream wall and the downstream wall, in which the recess is disposed, is projecting.
