Abstract
A leaf seal is provided for effecting a seal between two, coaxial, relatively rotating components. The leaf seal has an annular pack of stacked leaves. The pack is mountable to a first one of the components at root portions of the leaves and extends towards the other component such that end edges of the leaves are presented for wiping contact with the other component and, in use, a pressure drop is maintained axially across the pack. The leaf seal has a coverplate at the high or the low pressure side of the pack covering a portion of the radial extent of the pack. Some or all of the leaves have respective abutment formations. Each abutment formation is arranged to abut the coverplate at a stop portion upon radial deflection of the leaf by a predetermined amount to prevent further radial deflection beyond that amount.
