Damper for Stator Assembly

摘要

A damper for a stator assembly, the stator assembly comprising a stator segment and a seal mounted to the stator segment. The damper locates between the stator segment and the seal, and comprises: a medial section; and opposed arms extending from the medial section. The medial section engages one of the stator segment and the seal and the opposed arms engage the other of the stator segment and the seal. A method of making the damper, comprising the steps of: providing a sheet of material having a medial section and opposed arms extending from the medial section; forming a bend at the medial section so that the medial section can engage one of the stator segment and the seal; and forming a bend at each of the arms so that the arms can engage the other of the stator segment and the seal.
