  • Patent number: 5472314
    Abstract: A variable camber vane for a turbomachine comprises leading and trailing edge parts, at least one of which is pivotable relative to the other, and a resilient joining part inserted into a space provided between the leading and trailing edge parts, the joining part being formed by a block of resilient material which is bonded to the leading and trailing edge parts and which ensures the continuity of the intrados and extrados faces of the vane to permit an even flow of fluid along the vane. The vane may also include means for enabling a cooling or heating fluid to flow in the leading and trailing edge parts, and a plurality of ducts in the resilient joining part establishing communication between the fluid flow means of the leading and trailing edge parts.
