Patent ID: 8277186

Claim:
A turbine blade assembly, comprising: a plurality of turbine blades each provided with a blade root portion, an effective blade part and a shroud sequentially in a blade height direction; and a turbine rotor having at least one blade wheel which is comprised of a plurality of blade grooves formed circumferentially around the at least one blade wheel, wherein a blade cascade is circumferentially formed on the at least one blade wheel by implanting the blade root portions into the plurality of blade grooves, wherein the blade root portion comprises: an embedding portion to be inserted into one of the plurality of blade grooves; a shank portion which is formed between the embedding portion and the effective blade part; and a center cutout portion which is formed in one circumferential side surface of the shank portion; wherein a stopper member, which prevents at least one of the plurality of turbine blades from moving in an axial direction of the turbine rotor, is inserted into the center cutout portion; and wherein the shank portion to be implanted last into at least one of the plurality of blade grooves, comprises: an axial cutout portion formed from one end in the axial direction to the center cutout portion; and a through passage formed to receive a moving member from the center cutout portion to the effective blade part, the moving member being configured to be inserted into the through passage to move the stopper member toward the effective blade part within the center cutout portion so as to put a side surface of the stopper member on an axial direction side of the turbine rotor and an inner wall surface of the center cutout portion into a contactable state.
