Turbine shroud having ceramic matrix composite seal segment

A segmented turbine shroud for radially encasing a rotatable turbine in a gas turbine engine, the shroud comprising:

• a carrier comprising a forward generally planar flange and an aft generally planar flange, each of said flanges extending radially inward toward the turbine perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the turbine, said forward flange comprising a forward portion defining a pin-receiving forward carrier bore extending through the forward portion and said aft flange comprising an aft portion defining a pin-receiving aft carrier bore extending through said aft portion, wherein both the forward carrier bore and aft carrier bore have an axis parallel to the axis of rotation of the turbine;
• a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) seal segment comprising a portion defining a pin-receiving seal segment bore;
• and
• an elongated pin extending through said forward carrier bore, said seal segment bore, and said aft carrier bore,
• wherein each of said carrier flange portions defining said pin-receiving forward carrier bore and said pin-receiving aft carrier bore include a respective member extending axially from said flange to thereby define the carrier bore having a length greater than the axial dimension of said flange, said member having a length sufficient to effect radial flexion between said member and said pin received within said carrier bore during operation of the gas turbine engine.
