Abstract: External shroud for a turbomachine turbine wheel, this shroud being formed of ring sectors (120) positioned circumferentially end to end, and each comprising a circumferentially directed plate (136) bearing a block (138) of abradable material, the plate and the block of each ring sector being offset one with respect to the other in the circumferential direction so that a circumferential end part of the plate of each ring sector overlaps a corresponding end part of the block of an adjacent ring sector.

Abstract: This present invention concerns an axial gas turbine engine compressor which includes a casing and a distributor wheel composed of a multiplicity of sectors in arcs of circles, with radial stator blades fixed to an external platform, characterized by the fact that the said platform is retained in the casing by two joints of the tongue and groove type, one upstream and the other downstream of the stator blades, the said downstream joint being formed between a transverse flange provided on the external platform and a flange provided on the casing, with a securing resource to create a tight joint between the two flanges. It is preferable that the securing resource should be a bolt. The invention provides for effective retention of the sector so as to prevent wear in the surfaces in contact. The solution is easy to implement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rotary shaft arrangement carrying equipment at one end and extending rearwards from the equipment, the shaft (1) being supported by a first bearing (2) behind the equipment, and by a second bearing (3) behind the first bearing (2), the first bearing (2) being carried by a casing (4) surrounding the shaft (1) and extending rearwards from the first bearing (2) to a stator structure (5) to which the casing (4) is fastened by screws (6) that extend parallel to the shaft (1) and that are fusible in traction, the arrangement being characterized by the fact that the second bearing (3) is disposed with radial clearance (J) in a bore (7) of an annular support (8) secured to the stator structure (5), and is fastened to said annular support (8) by screws (9) that are parallel to the shaft (1) and that are fusible in shear, whereby the second bearing (3) can bear against said support (8) in the event of said screws (9) rupturing.
