  • Patent number: 8814079
    Abstract: A pylon for attaching a turbine engine of an aircraft having a rigid structure including protruding fittings each having a first orifice and a plurality of ties to attach the pylon onto a wing of the aircraft, the plurality of ties comprising two side front ties to take the thrust forces, the two side front being secured to the first orifices of the protruding fittings to attach the rigid structure firmly to the wing. The plurality of ties further comprises a center front tie positioned between the two side front ties, the center front tie including a ball joint to take forces in a lateral direction of the rigid structure.

  • Patent number: 8720818
    Abstract: A thrust reverser for a double-flow nacelle that has a cowling, with the thrust reverser having an internal door and an external door designed to be made within the thickness of the cowling. The reverser also has means for simultaneously displacing the doors between a first position called the rest position, in which the doors are integrated into the cowling so as to form an aerodynamic continuity with the external wall and the internal wall of the cowling, and a second active position, in which the doors are open so that the internal and external doors extend toward the inside and toward the outside of the nacelle, respectively, thus at least partially blocking the annular channel of the secondary flow, to deflect the secondary flow and to generate a thrust reversal, with the means being designed to be received in a compartment arranged inside the cowling formed by the doors in the rest position.

  • Patent number: 8167239
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relates to a jet engine for an aircraft, characterized in that it bears at least one stabilizer, the stabilizer being fastened on the rigid structure of said jet engine so as to form a one-piece assembly. The jet engine can also bear one or more auxiliary devices required for the operation of the jet engine. The disclosed embodiments also relates to an aircraft provided with such a jet engine, and to a method of mounting such a jet engine on an aircraft.

  • Patent number: 8162257
    Abstract: A nacelle for double-flow engine with a cowling and at least one thrust reverser, the thrust reverser having an internal door and an external door arranged in the cowling, and means for simultaneously shifting these doors between a stable retracted position in which the doors are integrated in the cowling and a stable deployed position in which the internal and external doors are positioned at least partially inside and outside of the nacelle, respectively, to deflect the secondary flow and to generate a thrust reversal. The means for simultaneously shifting the doors comprise an actuator, one extremity of which is linked to one of the doors to shift this door between the extreme positions, and at least one linkage element linked to the doors to pivot by its extremities, so that the shifting of the door entails the shifting of the other door between these extreme positions.

  • Publication number: 20120056033
    Abstract: The invention relates to a pylon for attaching a turbine engine for an aircraft, having a rigid structure (10) and means for attaching the pylon on a wing of the aircraft, said means for attaching the pylon on the wing comprising two side front ties (11a, 11b) each designed so as to take the thrust forces and comprising a fitting (54) pierced with a first orifice (65) firmly attached to the rigid structure (10), as well as a yoke (66) firmly attached to the wing. According to the invention, a central front tie (15) positioned between the side ties comprises a ball joint (27), and is laid out between both side front ties so that the centre (72) of the ball joint is located, as seen along the transverse direction (Y), in each of the first two orifices (65) of the side front ties.

  • Publication number: 20080210811
    Abstract: An engine assembly for an aircraft including a turbojet, a suspension pylon, and a plurality of engine suspensions. The plurality of suspensions include a first forward suspension and a second forward suspension fixed to an engine fan case and located symmetrically about a plane defined by a longitudinal axis of the turbojet and its vertical direction, the first and second suspensions each configured to resist forces applied along a longitudinal direction of the turbojet and along its vertical direction. Furthermore, the plurality of suspensions also include an engine aft suspension configured to resist forces applied along the vertical direction.
