ABSTRACT:
A structure for supporting an array of stator vanes in an axial flow rotary machine is disclosed. Various construction details related to machine efficiency and machine durability are developed. In one structure, both the concentricity of the ring with respect to the axis of the engine and the diameter of the ring are unaffected by thermal and mechanical distortions of the outer case. A spline-type connection is formed between the ring and the outer case.
