Abstract: A device of retractable stops for the blades of articulated rotors for giroplanes, which includes a stationary stop 20 with a finger 22 radially converging towards the exterior and externally radially protruding on the external spar 9 of the articulation means 7 of each blade on the hub 3, as well as a movable stop 21 with a receptacle 36 resiliently returned by a return device 45 in a position fit around the finger, but disengaged from the finger by centrifugal force when the rotation speed of the blades is higher than a set value. The invention therefore provides absolute stops in flapping and drag in the "ground" position and sharp stops in the flight position. One advantageous application is for helicopter rotors.
