<p>A damper for damping non-synchronous vibration in adjacent shrouded aerofoil blades (15) is in the form of pin (24) which locates in confronting passages (23) in adjacent blade shrouds (21). The pin (24) is provided with larger diameter portions (25) which are located totally within the passages (23) and frictionally engage the surfaces of the passages (23) to provide vibration damping. The larger diameter pin portions (25) are interconnected by a central, thinner portion (26). The configuration of the pin (24) reduces the likelihood of it wearing in such a manner that it jams in the passages (23) and no longer provides vibration damping. <IMAGE></p> |
