    摘要: A vane arm assembly for a gas turbine engine. The vane arm assembly includes a vane arm defining an aperture at an end thereof with an aperture wall. The vane arm assembly also includes a vane stem extending through the aperture of the vane arm. The vane arm assembly further includes a mechanical fastener retaining a position of the vane arm in the longitudinal direction of the vane stem. The vane arm assembly yet further includes an impedance ring disposed within the aperture of the vane arm and within an impedance ring groove defined by the vane stem to provide redundant position retention of the vane arm in the longitudinal direction of the vane stem.
