Abstract

A guide blade (200) for a guide device (100), including a guide blade body (201) with a blade top side (210), a blade underside (220), a blade leading edge (230) and a blade trailing edge (240). The guide blade (200) also comprises a profile centerline (250) which is defined in a profile of the guide blade body (201) by the blade top side (210) and the blade underside (220) and runs between them from the blade leading edge (230) to the blade trailing edge (240), the profile centerline (250) having a turning point (IP). The blade leading edge (230) and the blade trailing edge (240) are connected by a profile chord (260). The guide blade (200) has a guide blade axis of rotation (PA). The axis of rotation (PA), starting from the blade leading edge (230) in the direction of the blade trailing edge (240), lies along the profile chord (260) between the blade leading edge (230) and the turning point (IP).
