Abstract: A flexible metal foil can be fixed on the inside part of a variable pitch vane control ring of a turbojet compressor, so as to close all through holes in which lever pins and their surrounding bushes are housed. As a result, the foil can retain the shank of the bush if the bush breaks. The use of such foil does not impose the development of a new model of control ring and its impact on the mass is small enough so that it does not affect engine performances. Therefore it avoids problems related to the breakage of bushes without having to make major changes to the existing system.
