ABSTRACT:
In order to create an adjusting ring for the synchronous alteration of the angle of pitch of guide vanes of a compressor having several bearing points for mounting on a compressor housing of the compressor, which can be manufactured at least partially from materials with a low coefficient of thermal expansion and is, nevertheless, compatible with a metallic compressor housing with respect to temperature, it is suggested that the adjusting ring comprise curved ring segments each arranged between two adjacent bearing points, the curvature of the ring segments decreasing during an increase in the temperature of the ring segments so that the bearing points between the ring segments are displaced outwards in a radial direction.
