ABSTRACT:
A joint seal for articulated joints between contra-rotating sections of a gas turbine engine exhaust duct. The illustrated embodiment comprises a plurality of contra-rotatable exhaust duct sections leading to a vectorable final nozzle. The joint seal is located internally of a bearing around its inner circumference. An exhaust section may have an internal wall spaced internally from the outer wall, thus forming an annular space for conducting relatively cool air surrounding the hot gas stream. The joint seals preferably are located between adjacent ends of these inner walls.
