Abstract
A turbine engine includes a ferrule formed of a plurality of ferrule elements in the shape of circular sectors, each bearing on one internal face thereof fixed vanes and a circular housing surrounding the ferrule. The turbine has a support ring including a plurality of circular ring sectors each secured to the housing and having a U-shaped section whose opening is directed towards the ferrule, each ferrule element includes a hooking mechanism (9a) to be introduced into the opening of at least one ring sector so as to integrally connect the ring sector and the ferrule element.
