Abstract:
High-pressure turbine stator ring for a turbo engine, the stator comprising a turbine casing that, per stage, comprises the following:spacer sections in the arc of a circle that constitute a ring-shaped spacer closed at a 360.degree. angle and that is fastened to the inner surface of the turbine casing and that has an upstream leg and a downstream leg; andring sections in the arc of a circle closed at a 360.degree. angle to be opposite, on their inner surface, to the envelope that is constituted by the blade ends of the turbine wheels, said ring sections being fastened to the downstream leg of the spacer sections by a downstream flange that is fastened to the downstream leg of the spacer sections by fastening grips that grip both kinds of sections against each other at their downstream leg and the downstream flange, the end of the downstream leg of each spacer section and the downstream flange of each ring section being of reduced thickness,characterized in that the downstream leg of the spacer sections and the downstream flanges of the ring sections are curved and abut at radial junction surfaces that extend the outer surface of the downstream leg of the spacer sections and the inner surface of the downstream flange of the ring sections thereby creating a 90.degree. radial edge that constitutes an additional operational part in terms of leaktightness, the fastening grips being positioned around the downstream section of the assembly that is thus created by the curved downstream leg and the downstream flange of the spacer sections and the ring sections, the gripping surfaces of the fastening grips bearing on the curved section of outer surface of the downstream leg of the spacer sections and on the curved section and the non-curved section of the outer surface of the downstream flange of the ring sections.
