  • Patent number: 11459912
    Abstract: A flow guide is provided with a flange, a guide plate, and an inside member. A ring groove which is recessed to the radially outer side from an inner circumferential surface and which extends in a circumferential direction based on the axis is formed in the flange. The inside member includes a fitted portion which enters the ring groove, and a cover portion which faces the inner circumferential surface of the flange in the radial direction. The cover portion covers at least parts of the inner circumferential surface of the flange and an inner circumferential surface of the guide plate that face a tip end of a moving blade in the radial direction. The cover portion is formed from a material having a higher erosion resistance with respect to steam and steam drain than the flange.

  • Patent number: 10677098
    Abstract: A pin insertion hole is formed in an outer member, and a pin groove is formed in an inner member. A positioning device includes a pin entering the pin insertion hole and the pin groove, and a groove contact member coming in contact with a groove side surface of the pin groove. In one member of the pin and the groove contact member, a position restriction concave portion recessed in a direction away from the other member is formed in a portion facing the other member. In the other member, a claw portion entering the position restriction concave portion and coming into contact with the position restriction concave portion is formed as a portion of the other member is plastically deformed.
