Abstract

A device for stopping rotation of a fixed blade bearing sector in a gas turbine casing. Sectors of synchronizing ring blades are maintained against tangential rotational movements by sliding into grooves of a casing by pins passing through perforations in an extension of the two parts. The pins are prevented from accidental removal either by a flexible lock ring or by a locking tab maintained between the two parts when they have been completely assembled.
