Abstract
A leading-edge shield (32) for a turbomachine blade (16) includes a pressure-side wing (34) and a suction-side wing (36). Each of the wings (34, 36) extends along a height (H) from a bottom edge (50) to a top edge (51) and along a length, from the leading edge to a respective rear edge, and are connected together over the leading edge. At least one of the wings from among the suction-side wing (36) and the pressure-side wing (34) presents a segment (S1), adjacent to the top edge (51) and extending over at least 10% of the height (H), wherein the rear edge (42) slopes towards the top edge (51).
