ABSTRACT:
A blade retention arrangement axially fixes blades (1) to a disk (2). A profiled blade root (3) extending from the airfoil is inserted into a conformal axial slot (5) in the disk (2) and is axially secured by means of a split retaining ring (4), with the retaining ring (4) at least partly engaging a groove (6) on the blade root (3). The disk (2) is provided with a circumferential annular groove (7) which has a radially inward seating face for the retaining ring (4) and the retaining ring (4) is elastically deformable at least in the axial direction.
