Abstract
A segmented ring for installation in a turbomachine, circumferentially divided into segments, considered with respect to a ring axis of the segmented ring, wherein the segmented ring is adapted for installation from radially inside; i.e., the segments can be assembled radially outwardly to form the segmented ring. At least two immediately circumferentially adjacent segments meet in a joint at which a sealing insert is provided. A pocket which is open toward the joint is formed in each of the at least two immediately circumferentially adjacent segments; i.e., two circumferentially mutually facing pockets are provided at the joint. The sealing insert is disposed in the two mutually facing pockets and axially retained therein and extends circumferentially across the joint, and a pocket of the two mutually facing pockets is additionally also open in a radial direction such that this segment can be radially slid onto the sealing insert.
