Abstract

A device for preventing rotation of a segment of nozzle guide vanes assembly in a form of an annulus sector housed inside an annular casing of a turbo machine with interposing of a heat shield sheet between an internal wall of the casing and an external wall of the segment of nozzle guide vanes assembly, the device including a rotation-proofing peg fitted both into a notch formed in the segment of nozzle guide vanes assembly and in a housing formed in the casing, the heat shield sheet including a tab resting against the rotation-proofing peg. A surface portion radially between the tab and the internal wall of the casing forms an end stop in event of a possible radial movement of the heat shield sheet while the turbo machine is in operation.
