  • Patent number: 10988264
    Abstract: In order to reduce the mass of a primary structure of a mounting pylon for an engine of an aircraft, the mounting pylon includes a box and a rear sub-structure fastened to the box which includes two lateral panels, each equipped at its rear end with a first linking portion through which passes a first connection orifice that is designed to receive a connection pin of a lateral front wing attachment. The rear sub-structure is made in one piece and includes two opposite lateral flanks that are respectively fastened to the two lateral panels of the box by fastening elements. Each lateral flank has a second linking portion through which passes a second connection orifice that is aligned with the first connection orifice, and is also designed to receive the connection pin of the lateral front wing attachment.

  • Publication number: 20180057143
    Abstract: An airfoil extension for a wing of an aircraft, the airfoil extension including an upper surface wall and a lower surface wall, the upper surface wall and the lower surface wall defining between them a profile of the airfoil extension. A structural reinforcement is disposed along the leading edge of the airfoil extension. The profile of the airfoil is configured to be modified in response to flight conditions (e.g., aerodynamic pressures acting on the upper surface wall and the lower surface wall) experienced by, on, and/or at the airfoil extension.

  • Patent number: 6494403
    Abstract: Device for aircraft thrust reovery capable of linking a turboshaft engine and an engine strut. A device for thrust recovery (16) linking a turboshaft engine to an aircraft engine strut comprising an attachment fitting (22) fixed to an engine strut, a control bar (38) articulated on the attachment fittings (22) and two coupling rods (24) linking the control bar (38) to the central engine casing, almost along the longitudinal axis of the latter. Links with play are envisaged between each of the coupling rods (24) and the attachment fitting (22), to ensure transmission of thrust forces in the event of rupture of one of the parts of the device. These links with play comprise pivoting axes (48) which intersect the longitudinal axes of the corresponding coupling rods (24).

  • Patent number: 6398161
    Abstract: An aircraft propulsion system (10) is connected to a strut, fixed to the wing or fuselage, by a fixing device comprising at least one rear mount (22) and two front mounts (24, 26). The rear mount (22) and a first (24) of the front mounts connect a main part (12a) of the frame (12) of the strut to the central casing (16) of the engine. The other front mount (26) connects a front part (12b) projecting from the strut frame (12) to the fan stator case (20) and mainly takes up the vertical forces (Z). Thus, the first front mount (24) can be simplified and bending or sagging of the engine is reduced.

  • Patent number: 6347765
    Abstract: A device for the attachment of an aircraft engine to a strut comprises a main attachment structure (18, 24) able to transmit normally to the strut forces exerted in two directions (X′, Y′), whereof one is mainly parallel to the longitudinal axis (OX) of the engine and the other mainly perpendicular to said axis and to a median plane common to the engine and the strut. The device also comprises an emergency attachment structure essentially constituted by an element (10) fixed to the strut and also forming part of the main attachment structure. The element (10), preferably implemented in the form of two coupled together parts (10a, 10b), comprises a pin (42) penetrating with clearance a recess formed on the aircraft casing (C).
