Airfoil anti-rotation ring and assembly
An assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of vanes having a radially outer platform with a flange that extends radially outward therefrom and a plurality of notches in the flange. A ring is located radially outward from the radially outer platform of the plurality of vanes. An axially extending projection extends through and corresponds with each of the plurality of notches on the flange.
1. An assembly for a gas turbine engine comprising:
a vane disposed about an axis and having a radially outer platform, a flange projecting radially outwardly from the radially outer platform, and a notch extending axially through the flange such that the notch opens at forward and aft flange faces of the flange; and
a ring located radially outward of the radially outer platform, the ring having axially forward and aft ring faces and a lug extending axially from the forward ring face, the lug extending axially through the notch on the flange and limiting circumferential movement of the vane.
2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the lug includes circumferential sides and a recess on each of the circumferential sides.
3. The assembly of claim 2 , wherein the aft flange face abuts, and is flush with, the forward ring face.
4. The assembly of claim 3 , wherein the ring includes a plurality of radially extending projections extending from a radially outer surface of the ring.
5. The assembly of claim 4 , wherein the plurality of radially extending projections are circumferentially offset from the lug in a circumferentially non-overlapping configuration.
6. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the vane is a ceramic matrix composite.
7. The assembly of claim 6 , wherein the ring is a superalloy and forms a continuous loop.
8. The assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein the lug extends through the aft flange face and through the forward flange face such that the lug projects from the notch.
