Angled blade firtree retaining system

摘要

A blade root retaining system for attachment of a turbine blade to a turbine disc of a gas turbine engine comprises a blade root having at least one projection on each of opposite sides thereof, the projection extending from a leading edge to a trailing edge of the blade in a axial direction toward a longitudinal axis of the gas turbine engine. The blade root is received in an attachment slot defined through a periphery of the turbine disc. The attachment slot is configured in shape and direction for retaining the blade root.
