First Claim
Patent Images
1. A guide vane assembly for a gas turbine engine comprising:
- a first airfoil, including a first airfoil trailing edge;
a second airfoil, including a second airfoil leading edge, positioned aft the first airfoil to create a gap therebetween; and
a seal assembly disposed within the gap to engage the first airfoil trailing edge and the second airfoil leading edge.
