Abstract:

A variable guide vane bushing assembly which features means that prevents bushing rotation. A bushing comprises flats 16b on its outer sleeve, the flats interlock with race track shaped holes 20a on a tab-lock washer. The tab lock washer spans two or more adjacent vane stems and thus is not susceptible to rotation. A retainer and the vane arm assemble on top of the tab-lock washer to complete the assembly.
