Estimating the term…
A rotor, in particular a gas turbine rotor, having multiple rotor discs, each of which has an axial through-opening, and the rotor discs are axially clamped by at least one tie rod extending through the through-openings and are combined so as to form at least one rotor disc unit. At least one support ring which surrounds the tie rod and is in engagement with a paired rotor disc rests against the outer diameter of the tie rod, and the tie rod is supported against the rotor disc by the support ring. In order to axially secure the at least one support ring, at least one securing ring is provided which is secured to the paired rotor disc by a rotational lock and which holds the support ring against the rotor disc. The securing ring is prevented from unscrewing by a securing plate.
A rotor, comprising:
A method for securing a locking ring for a rotor having a plurality of rotor disks having in each case an axial through-hole, which rotor disks are axially clamped via at least one tie rod extending through the through-holes and are assembled to form at least one rotor disk unit, at least one support ring, which encompasses the tie rod, butts against the outside diameter of the tie rod, which support ring engages with an associated rotor disk and via which the tie rod is supported on the rotor disk, the method comprising:
