Abstract

A sealing assembly for a gas turbine engine. The sealing assembly includes first and second gas turbine walls defining a channel therebetween. Additionally, the second gas turbine wall further defines a passage extending therethrough. Furthermore, the sealing assembly includes a leaf seal partially positioned within the channel and a seal holder coupled to the second gas turbine wall. Moreover, the sealing assembly includes a spring compressed between the seal holder and the leaf seal such that the leaf seal is in sealing engagement with the first gas turbine wall. In addition, the sealing assembly includes a pin extending through the passage defined by the second gas turbine wall to couple the seal holder and the leaf seal such that the pin is thermally unconstrained by the second wall during operation of the gas turbine engine.
