Zusammenfassung:	A seal segment (10) includes a flapper seal (20), a wire mesh (22) acting as a hinge for the flapper seal (20), and a spring (28). The flapper seal (20) has a first surface and a second surface. The wire mesh (22) includes a first section (22a) connected to the first surface of the flapper seal (20) and a second section (22b) connected to the first section. The spring (28) includes a first end (28a) that is in contact with the first section of the wire mesh (22) to apply pressure to the first surface of the flapper seal (28) and a second end (28b) adjacent the second section of the wire mesh (22).
