Patent attributes
A rotating assembly of a gas turbine engine includes a first rotating component; and a second rotating component located radially outboard of the first rotating component, relative to an engine central longitudinal axis. A seal assembly is configured to seal between the first rotating component and the second rotating component. The seal assembly includes a shuttle located on a radial outer surface of the second component and freely axially movable along the radial outer surface and a piston ring seal retained in the shuttle and engaged with the first rotating component. Axial motion of the first rotating component relative to the second rotating component urges movement of the shuttle along the radial outer surface of the second rotating component, while the position of the piston ring seal remains stationary relative to the first rotating component.
