摘要 |
A bladed rotor includes a hub <bold>12 </highlight>with bayonet hooks <bold>34, 36, </highlight>a bayonet ring <bold>64 </highlight>with bayonet projections <bold>66, 68 </highlight>that engage the hooks, and a load transfer element that occupies an annulus <bold>38 </highlight>defined by the hooks. Ideally, the load transfer element is a substantially circumferentially continuous snap ring <bold>60. </highlight>If a blade separation event or other abnormality exerts an excessive axial load on a blade, the snap ring <bold>60 </highlight>safely distributes that load to the bayonet hooks <bold>34, 36 </highlight>to prevent the blade from severing the snap ring and being ejected axially from its slot.
