<p>A rotor stage (13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19) of a gas turbine engine (10) comprises an annular retaining plate (38) capable of preventing axial movement of blades (30). The retaining plate (38) is secured to the disc (32) via a bayonet arrangement (49). A locking assembly (48) is provided to prevent relative rotation between the disc (32) and the retaining plate (38). The locking assembly (48) comprises a locking plug (50) configured in a generally Y-shaped cross section having a channel portion defined by arms (56), which engage upstream and downstream of the retaining plate (38) and a leg part (58) configured to span between bayonet parts (40 and 42), thereby preventing relative rotation between the disc (32) and the retaining plate (38). The assembly (48) further comprises a securing plate (52) configured to span between circumferentially adjacent castellations (40) thereby preventing the locking plug (50) disengaging the disc (32) and retaining plate (38).</p> |
