Floating connector for an impingement insert

摘要

An impingement baffle (30) for a turbine nozzle vane (28) includes a perforate sleeve (42) for discharging impingement air therethrough. A cap (44) closes the sleeve at a top end, and includes an inlet hole (46). A spoolie cup (32) includes a flange (48) at the bottom thereof which is disposed atop the cap around the inlet hole for channeling air therein. A retainer (50) is joined to the cap to loosely trap the cup flange thereatop for permitting limited lateral sliding movement thereof. <IMAGE>
