摘要

A seal for sealing a gap between a vane and a liner of an outlet guide vane is comprised of: a joint section for joining with the liner; a flexible fillet section elongated from the joint section and tapering toward a tip so as to form a round corner between the vane and the liner when the tip is placed in contact with the vane; and a flexible rib section projecting from an inner surface and so dimensioned as to get in contact with an upper surface of an external structure for securing the vane to keep gas tightness.
