ABSTRACT:
A rotary machine vane includes a body and an articulated tip pivotally joined thereto. The body is complementary with a slot of a rotor in which it is mountable for radial reciprocation therein. The body includes an arcuate cradle extending axially along a radially outer end thereof. The vane tip includes a pin and an integral plate extending along the pin for facing a casing surrounding the rotor to form a seal therewith. The pin is complementary to the cradle for defining a radial gap therebetween, and is radially outwardly retained by the cradle for rocking movement therein for self-alignment with the casing.
