The invention relates to a segmented inner ring for holding guide blades. According to the invention, a lateral wall opposing the front side of the inner ring and pertaining to a shaft shoulder formed on the rotor shaft extends radially, and respectively one half of a labyrinth seal is formed on the front side of the inner ring and on the shaft shoulder. The aim of the invention is to apply an arrangement of stacked labyrinth seals, known from airplane turbines, to a stationary gas turbine having a separation plane. To this end, a method is used to mount an inner ring of a gas turbine. The invention also relates to a stationary gas turbine comprising a segmented inner ring.

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of assembling a segmented inner ring within a stationary gas turbine, comprising: a) mounting a guide vane segment to the turbine; b) mounting a securing ring to the vane segment; c) mounting an inner ring to the inner diameter of the vane segment, the inner ring having an end face; d) placing a rotor into the turbine, the rotor having an upper side wall; e) mounting a segment of an annular covering element to the rotor upper side wall, the annular covering element having a plurality of balconies arranged toward the inner ring end face; f) rotating the rotor to rotate the mounted covering element into the inner ring; g) repeating steps e) and f) such that the inner ring and covering elements form a lower portion of a labyrinth seal; h) mounting additional covering element segments on the rotor upper side wall to completely form the annular covering element ring; i) moving at least one segment of the inner ring radially inward and axially toward the covering element to completely form the inner ring and thereby completely form the seal; and j) moving a securing ring segment radially inward to engage a remaining void in the inner ring to completely form the securing ring. 2. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the method steps a) to j) are performed in reverse order to dismantle the inner ring. 3. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein a plurality of guide vane segments are mounted to a housing of the turbine. 4. The method as claimed in claim 3, wherein a lower half of the securing ring is mounted to an inner diameter of the vane segments. 5. The method as claimed in claim 4, wherein a lower half of an inner ring is mounted to the inner diameter of the vane segments. 6. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rotor is rotated an amount equal to the arc length of the mounted covering element segment.
