An object of the present invention is to provide a ring segment of a gas turbine in which the temperature is maintained low, damage due to high temperature oxidation is prevented, and high temperature deformation is prevented. In order to achieve the object, the present invention provides a ring segment of a gas turbine which comprises a blade ring, a main shaft and moving blades comprising a plurality of individual units which define an annular form by being arranged around the peripheral direction of the main shaft, and disposed so that its inner peripheral surface is maintained at a constant distance from the tips of the moving blades, wherein grooves which extend along the axial direction of the main shaft of the turbine are formed upon of the individual units so as mutually to confront one another; a seal plate which is inserted into each mutually confronting pair of the grooves so as to connect together the adjacent pair of individual units; and contact surfaces which are formed at positions more radially inward than the seal plates, which extend in the axial direction and the peripheral direction and which mutually contact one another.

The division wall is made up of a plurality of division wall sections forming a passage wall of high temperature gas which are connected in the direction of arrangement of blades to form a wall surface having a roughly circular cross section as a whole, a gas flow restricting structure for preventing high temperature gas from passing through a gap formed at a connecting portion between the division wall sections in the flow direction of the high temperature gas from the opening on the upstream side of the high temperature gas in the gap, or a gas flow restricting structure for preventing the high temperature gas from being embraced in the gap, for example, a sealing member formed into a prism having a T-shape cross section as a whole composed of a plane portion as a sealing portion and a projected portion for filling the gap is provided.

In the gas turbine split ring, on an outer peripheral surface between two cabin attachment flanges, a circumferential rib which extends in the circumferential direction and an axial rib which extends in the axial direction and has a height taller than that of the circumferential rib are, respectively, formed in plural lines, so that it is possible to suppress heat deformation in the axial direction which largely contributes to reduction of the tip clearance compared to head deformation in the circumferential direction more efficiently.
