BLADE WITH TIP SHROUD

The invention concerns a blade (10) comprising a leading edge (12), a trailing edge (14), a pressure surface (16), a suction surface (18), a root end (23) and a tip end (24), the blade (10) comprising a tip shroud (22) attached to the tip end (24), the tip shroud (22) comprising a platform (31, 32) and a fin (40), wherein the fin (40) comprises a leading edge side (43) facing towards the leading edge (12) of the blade, a trailing edge side (44) facing towards the trailing edge (14) of the blade, a back end (42) and a front end (41), the leading edge side (43) and the trailing edge side (44) extending between the back end (42) and the front end (41), the fin (40) extending across the tip end (24) of the blade at an angle to the chord of the blade (10) at the tip end (24) of the blade, wherein the platform comprises a first platform portion (31) and a second platform portion (32), wherein the first platform portion (31) extends from the leading edge side (43) of the fin between the front end (41) of the fin and the suction surface (18) at the tip end (24) of the blade, to the suction surface (18) at the tip end (24) of the blade between the leading edge (12) of the blade and the leading edge side (43) of the fin, wherein the second platform portion (32) extends from the trailing edge side (44) of the fin between the back end (42) of the fin and the pressure surface (16) at the tip end (24) of the blade, to the pressure surface (16) at the tip end (24) of the blade between the trailing edge (14) of the blade and the trailing edge side (44) of the fin (40), and wherein the tip shroud (22) is delimited by the suction surface (18) at the tip end (24) of the blade between the trailing edge (14) and the trailing edge side of the fin, and by the trailing edge side (44) of the fin between the suction surface (18) at the tip end (24) of the blade and the front end (41) of the fin. A gas turbine comprising the blade (10) and a method of manufacturing the blade (10) are also described.
