Abstract
A device for connecting a fixed turbine engine portion and a distributor foot of a turbine engine turbine is provided. The device includes a ring-shaped body adapted so as to be connected and secured to the fixed turbine engine portion, and two ring-shaped upstream and downstream brackets secured to the body, both brackets being adapted so as to clamp the foot of the distributor. At least one bracket is interrupted by forming an expansion or retraction slot, the slot allowing an expansion of the bracket tending to close the slot or retraction of the bracket tending to further open the slot, under the effect of a difference in internal temperatures of the device.
