A variable stator vane actuating lever ( 50 ) for use in a compressor ( 20 ) of a gas turbine engine ( 10 ). The lever ( 50 ) comprises a first end ( 52 ) for pivotal connection to a stator vane actuator ring ( 36 ) and a second end ( 54 ) for abutting a stator vane spindle ( 32 ). The stator vane spindle ( 32 ) has a diameter and flat positions ( 56,58,60,62 ). The second end ( 54 ) of the lever ( 50 ) has resilient members ( 64,66 ) for abutting the flat portions ( 56,58,60,62 ) of the stator vane spindle ( 32 ) at diametrically opposite locations. The resilient members ( 64,66 ) are integral with the second end ( 54 ) of the stator vane spindle ( 32 ) and are curved so that they are substantially tubular to provide even load distribution and improved location of the lever ( 50 ) on the stator vane spindle ( 32 ). |
