Abstract
A linear gasket for an inter-blade platform that presents a length, the gasket including a linear base for fastening to the inter-blade platform and a linear lip projecting from the linear base, the linear lip including a linear distal end portion configured to contact a pressure side wall or a suction side wall of a blade, a linear groove being formed between the linear base and the linear lip over at least a fraction of a length of the linear gasket. The linear distal end portion includes at least one linear slit extending over at least a fraction of the length of the gasket.

A linear gasket, the gasket being configured for an inter-blade platform that presents a length, and the gasket comprising:
- a linear base to fasten to the inter-blade platform and a linear lip projecting from the linear base,
- the linear lip including a linear distal end portion configured to contact a pressure side wall or a suction side wall of a blade,
- a linear groove being formed between the linear base and the linear lip over at least a fraction of a length of the gasket, and
- the linear distal end portion including at least one linear slit extending over at least a fraction of the length of the gasket, and the at least one linear slit extending substantially parallel to a leading to trailing edge extension direction of the pressure side wall or the suction side wall of the blade when the linear distal end portion is in contact with the pressure side wall or the suction side wall of the blade.
