Adjustable guide vane for turbines, compressors, or the like

摘要

A guide vane for an axial guide baffle of an axial flow engine, such as a jet engine, is adjustable in its position about a guide vane adjustment axis extending radially to a rotational engine axis. The guide vane has a vane body and an adjustment lever extending at an angle of about 90 DEG away from the adjustment axis. The vane body, the adjustment lever, and at least one bearing journal form an integral one piece construction either of molded fiber composite material or of forged, e.g. drop forged, metal.
