  • Patent number: 8622708
    Abstract: A stator blade and a stator blade arrangement for a turbomachine which is exposable to axial throughflow is provided. Each stator blade is retained via a fixed clamping in a circumferential groove. For the fixed clamping, provision is made on one side of the blade root for a shaped piece with a threaded hole into which a tensioning screw, which is supported on the bottom of the circumferential groove, may be screwed.

  • Publication number: 20120230829
    Abstract: A blade for a turbine or a compressor, at least partially made of fiber-reinforced plastic, in particular carbon fiber reinforced plastic, being particularly durable under operating conditions is provided. The blade includes a blade body and a blade root. The blade body is substantially made of a folded fabric web made of fiber reinforced plastic, wherein a retaining loop is formed in the area of the fold, and wherein a blade surface is formed in the area of the fold, and wherein a blade surface is formed from the overlapping web ends. The blade root includes a longitudinal beam and at least two holders for anchoring the blade in a corresponding groove of a rotor, the holders being preferably each fixedly connected to the beam at both ends. The blade body is suspended on the beam by means of the retaining loop.
