Patent number: 7165743Abstract: A front attachment device for attaching an aircraft engine to an aircraft pylon includes an upper brace fitted with elements rigidly fastened to the pylon and first and a second connecting rods, each connected to the engine, via a first ball joint connection at one end portion and to the upper brace via a second ball joint connection on the other end portion. The device further includes in each connecting rod a third stand-by link. The first and second connecting rods are interchangeable with each other.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2004Date of Patent: January 23, 2007Assignee: Snecma MoteursInventors: Felix Pasquer, Philippe Loewenstein, Marc Tesniere

Patent number: 7108224Abstract: A suspension of the turbo fan engine to an aircraft pylon, includes a fitting arranged to be attached to a pylon, a lever fastened in its central portion to the fitting via a linking device with a pivot pin. Two thrust rods are each connected by an end to the lever and including at the other end of the fastening device to the engine. The linking device is composed on the central portion of the lever, of two parallel branches apart from one another, and on the fitting, of a central fastening tab, whereas the fastening tab and both branches are held together by dint of the pivot pin.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2004Date of Patent: September 19, 2006Assignee: SNECMA MoteursInventors: Felix Pasquer, Philippe Loewenstein, Marc Tesniere

Patent number: 6988692Abstract: A rear attachment suspension or device of a turbo engine to an aircraft pylon includes an upper brace fitted with a pylon fastening device and hinged by second ball joint connections, first and second rocker bars transversal to the longitudinal axis of the engine on both sides of the axis of the engine and a third rocker bar disposed there between. The rocker bars are linked to the engine by first ball joint connections. The first and second rocker bars each include a third stand-by link and the upper brace is formed of a beam fixed rigidly to the pylon. The rocker bars are designed to ensure their interchangeability, thereby reducing the risks of error during assembly.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2004Date of Patent: January 24, 2006Assignee: SNECMA MoteursInventors: Félix Pasquer, Philippe Loewenstein, Marc Tesniere

Patent number: 6986482Abstract: A suspension part for mounting a turbojet engine includes two ends equipped with two elements, juxtaposed in a widthwise direction of the suspension part, for fixing the suspension part to the fixed structure. The ends are shaped into pairs of yokes respectively flanking connecting rods and each including fixing elements and a bearing of a journal of a connecting rod which bearing is situated underneath a fixing element. The suspension part also includes slots passing through the two ends of the suspension part and running between the yokes without running over a central portion of the suspension part. Each of the yokes has an upper portion with an additional thickness located on an inside of each of the yokes.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2001Date of Patent: January 17, 2006Assignee: Snecma MoteursInventors: François Brefort, Lydie Chevalier, Jean-Louis Picard, Jean-Claude Félix Pasquer

Publication number: 20040251379Abstract: The present invention relates to a rear attachment suspension or device of a turbo engine (1) to an aircraft pylon including an upper brace (12) fitted with pylon fastening means, whereon are hinged by second ball joint connections (163, 183), three rocker bars transversal to the longitudinal axis of the engine, a first (16) and a second (18) rocker bars on both sides of the axis of the engine and a third rocker bar (17) between both of them, the rocker bars being themselves linked with the engine by first ball joint connections (161, 181). The suspension is characterised in that the first (16) and second (18) rocker bars each include a third (167, 187) stand-by link and in that the upper brace (12) is formed of a beam (120) fixed rigidly to the pylon.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2004Publication date: December 16, 2004Applicant: SNECMA MOTEURSInventors: Felix Pasquer, Philippe Loewenstein, Marc Tesniere

Publication number: 20040251381Abstract: The present invention relates to an attachment device, in particular a front attachment device, for attaching a turbo engine (1) to an aircraft pylon including an upper brace (12, 12′) fitted with rigid fastening means to the pylon, a first (16) and a second (18) connecting rods, each connected to the engine, via a first ball joint connection (161, 181; 161′, 181′), on the one hand, and to the upper brace (12, 12′) via a second ball joint connection (165, 185; 165′, 185′), on the other hand. The device is characterised in that each connecting rod (16, 18) includes a third stand-by link (167, 187; 176′, 187′).Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2004Publication date: December 16, 2004Applicant: SNECMA MOTEURSInventors: Felix Pasquer, Philippe Loewenstein, Marc Tesniere

Patent number: 6758438Abstract: A jet engine suspension includes a master component for attachment, fixed to an aircraft pylon. In the event of breakage of the master component and in the situation where the fixing screws are no longer able to transmit force, a peg is provided which resists transmitted loads such that the master component collapses until an upper shoulder rests on the pylon and supports the master component. The peg is free of dynamic stress in normal service and there is absolutely no risk of it cracking in fatigue.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2002Date of Patent: July 6, 2004Assignee: Snecma MoteursInventors: François Brefort, Patrick Huet, Félix Pasquer

Publication number: 20040094680Abstract: The invention concerns a suspension part (1) comprising ends supporting connecting rods (8 and 9) articulated to a turbojet engine (3) which is constructed such that the ends form a pair of yokes (5) separated by a slot (19) bisecting the part (1) over part of its length so as to stop fatigue crack propagation (20). The fixing elements (11) comprising lock bolts (13) are arranged in enlarged portions (15) of the yokes (5) which extend above the connecting rods (8) and (9), thereby ensuring static resistance of the yokes (5) when the counterpart has given way. Said arrangement also reduces cantilever between the fixing elements (11) and the connecting rod (8) and (9).Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2003Publication date: May 20, 2004Inventors: Francois Brefort, Lydie Chevalier, Jean-Louis Picard, Jean-Claude Felix Pasquer

Publication number: 20030066928Abstract: A jet engine suspension comprises a master component for attachment, fixed to an aircraft pylon. If it breaks and if the situation arises where the fixing screws are no longer able to transmit force, a peg takes over: the master component collapses until an upper shoulder rests on the pylon and supports this component. The peg is free of dynamic stress in normal service and there is absolutely no risk of it cracking in fatigue.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2002Publication date: April 10, 2003Applicant: SNECMA MOTEURSInventors: Francois Brefort, Patrick Huet, Felix Pasquer
