Abstract
This invention relates to a seal plate system adapted to fit between axially adjacent turbine blades and turbine vanes to seal a rim cavity. The seal plate system may be formed from a seal plate supported by a plurality of extended disk lugs extending from a disk. The seal plate system may also include one or more extended disk lug receiving cavities adapted to receive protrusions extending from the disc. One or more ribs may extend from the seal plate for increasing the structural integrity of the seal plate.
