Abstract

A rotor blade system, for example, of a gas turbine is provided. The rotor blade system includes a plurality of rotor blades which are arranged annularly on a rotor disk. A plurality of sealing plates are arranged on a side surface of the rotor disk. An individual sealing plate is formed from a plurality of metal sheets, wherein two of the metal sheets are arranged opposite each other a distance apart and parallel to a plane of the sealing plate, forming a gap for guiding of cooling air.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 .- 10 . (canceled) 
     
     
         11 . A sealing plate for a ring of a rotor of a gas turbine, the ring comprising a plurality of sealing plates, the sealing plate comprising:
 a plurality of metal sheets, wherein two of the metal sheets are arranged opposite each other a distance apart and parallel to a plane of the sealing plate, forming a gap for guiding of cooling air.   
     
     
         12 . The sealing plate as claimed in  claim 11 , further comprising an intermediate metal sheet with a plurality of cutouts arranged between the metal sheets. 
     
     
         13 . The sealing plate as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein an individual metal sheet, as seen in the operating position, has a bend on the side facing a middle of the turbine disk. 
     
     
         14 . The sealing plate as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein an individual metal sheet has a plurality of cooling air holes. 
     
     
         15 . The sealing plate as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein at least one of the metal sheets points from the plane of the sealing plate. 
     
     
         16 . The sealing plate as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of metal sheets are welded and/or soldered to each other. 
     
     
         17 . The sealing plate as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein a groove is arranged in the region of an edge of the sealing plate, which is provided for bearing against an adjacent sealing plate. 
     
     
         18 . The sealing plate as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein a tongue is arranged in the region of an edge of the sealing plate, which is provided for bearing against an adjacent sealing plate. 
     
     
         19 . The sealing plate as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein:
 an intermediate metal sheet with a plurality of cutouts is arranged between the metal sheets,   each metal sheet, as seen in the operating position, has a bend on the side facing a middle of the turbine disk,   each metal sheet has a plurality of cooling air holes,   at least one of the metal sheets points from the plane of the sealing plate,   wherein the plurality of metal sheets are welded and/or soldered to each other, and   a groove and/or a tongue is arranged in the region of an edge of the sealing plate, which is provided for bearing against an adjacent sealing plate.   
     
     
         20 . A rotor blade system, comprising
 a plurality of rotor blades which are arranged annularly on a rotor disk, and   a plurality of sealing plates arranged on a side surface of the rotor disk, wherein an individual sealing plate is formed from a plurality of metal sheets, wherein two of the metal sheets are arranged opposite each other a distance apart and parallel to a plane of the sealing plate, forming a gap for guiding of cooling air.   
     
     
         21 . The rotor blade system as claimed in  claim 20 , wherein the rotor blade system is part of a gas turbine. 
     
     
         22 . A gas turbine, comprising:
 a rotor blade system, comprising
 a plurality of rotor blades which are arranged annularly on a rotor disk, and 
 a plurality of sealing plates arranged on a side surface of the rotor disk, wherein an individual sealing plate is formed from a plurality of metal sheets, wherein two of the metal sheets are arranged opposite each other a distance apart and parallel to a plane of the sealing plate, forming a gap for guiding of cooling air.
