Summary:A device for locking a root of a rotor blade in a groove in a rotor disk of a turbomachine including: a circular ring sector configured to be mounted, transversely to the axis of the turbomachine, in a groove in the rotor disk; at least one locking wedge, which is rigidly secured and perpendicular to the ring sector, and extends parallel to the axis of the ring sector so as to hold the root of the blade radially in the groove; and at least one locking tooth extending from the ring sector radially with respect to the axis of the ring sector, so as to prevent the root of the blade from moving axially in the groove.
