  • Patent number: 6074168
    Abstract: The rotating and non-rotating swash-plates are guided in axial translation and in tilting on the rotor axis by a non-rotating axial guide arrangement, such as two pillars, and slides on each of which slides one of two pads carrying diametrically opposite trunnions, enabling the pivoting of the non-rotating plate around a first diametrical axis, whereas the sliding movements of the pads on the slides guide the pivoting movements of the non-rotating plate around a second diametrical axis perpendicular to the rotor axis and first diametrical axis, and which is the axis of the cylindrical face of the slides.

  • Patent number: 5820341
    Abstract: The device includes anti-cone stops projecting outward from at least two coaxial rings that can rotate about the rotor axis on the top face of the hub. Flyweights are each mechanically joined to one of the rings by a mechanism for driving the latter in rotation from the "ground" position, in which each anti-cone stop is facing an upper bearing shoe of the corresponding blade, to the "flight" position, in which the anti-cone stops are retracted against elastic mechanisms returning them to the "ground" position.
