Abstract

Turbine engine turbine sealing module extending about an axis and including a distributor fixed to a casing, and at least one blade connected to an outer platform. The turbine module further includes an impeller mounted rotating inside the casing and surrounded by a sealing ring fastened to this casing. The sealing ring includes an annular row of ring sectors arranged such that the circumferential end edges of two adjacent sectors are facing one another. Each sector includes a body configured to engage with at least one seal lip carried by the impeller and a hook which extends circumferentially which is configured to engage with a fastening rail of the casing. Each ring sector further includes a deflector which extends radially inwards and upstream with respect to the axis, such that the radially inward end thereof extends around a downstream end of the outer platform of the distributor.
