Abstract: The current invention relates to a housing (10) for securing a recessed fixture in a support (20), the housing (10) comprising at least one spring (12) resting on a portion of the side wall (10a) when loaded, and extending outwardly from the side wall (10a) when released so as to secure the housing (10) in the support (20); the housing (10) further comprises at least one releasable retention member keeping the spring (12) loaded over a given length of insertion of the housing (10) into the support (20). The housing (10) can notably be used in a recessed light fixture.

Abstract: According to the invention, the engine pylon for the suspension of a turbo engine under an aircraft wing is such that the trailing edge of the rear lower part of the engine pylon is shifted toward the root of the wing.

Abstract: A wing arrangement of an aircraft has a wing and at least one pylon for suspending an engine below the wing. The wing has a leading edge with a high-lift device, which is able to move between a deployed position in which the high-lift device projects forward of the leading edge, and which is interrupted in a forward intermediate region of the wing located at the leading edge, the pylon having a forward edge extending forward of the leading edge of the wing between a forward upper portion connected to the wing in the forward intermediate region and a forward lower portion connected to a nacelle of the engine. An element of narrow elongate shape protrudes longitudinally from the forward edge and, during flight at a high angle of attack of the aircraft, generates a vortex of aerodynamic flow that is propagated toward the forward intermediate region above the wing.

Abstract: An aircraft including: a fuselage and two wings to which engine nacelles are attached and that are each connected laterally to the fuselage, one on each side thereof, by a central fairing. The central fairing includes, facing each wing, two opposed surfaces connected one to a suction face side and the other to a pressure face side of the wing and that extend longitudinally along the fuselage. At least one of the two surfaces includes at least one local geometric deformation configured to generate lateral aerodynamic disturbances on the central fairing toward the wing to control the flow of air over the wing.

Abstract: An aircraft including a longitudinal fuselage, at least two lateral wings connected symmetrically one on each side of the fuselage and at least one engine pod fixed to each lateral wing via an engine support pylon. At least one profiled bearing rod is positioned on each of the engine support pylons so as to generate a propulsive resultant force under action of an oblique air flow.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of reducing the compressibility drag of wing, and it also provides a container implementing the method. The container (10, 10?, 10?) is provided successively with a front portion (11) in the vicinity of its leading edge (14), then with an intermediate portion (12), and then with a rear portion (13) in the vicinity of its trailing edge (15), said rear portion (13) tapering progressively in a direction going from the leading edge (14) of the container towards its trailing edge (15). Furthermore, said rear portion (13) is extended by connection means (17) enabling the container (10, 10?, 10?) to be connected under the wing (1) in such a manner that said tapering rear portion (13) is partially upstream from the leading edge (2) of the wing (1).

Abstract: An aircraft wing arrangement including a wing and at least one strut for attaching the aircraft engine suspended under the wing and including a front zone situated projecting towards the front with respect to a leading edge of the wing. The front zone includes a lateral projection delimiting a lateral air flow channel while being projected towards a proximal end of the wing.

Abstract: A mast for connection between a power plant and the rest of an aircraft that includes an outside surface (14) that is in contact with the air flows, characterized in that it includes, in the outside surface (14), at least one recess (22) that is blocked by a porous wall (24), with a porosity of 3 to 6%, coming into the extension of the outside surface (14), whereby the recess makes it possible to have the high-pressure zone (18) communicate with the low-pressure zone (20), zones that are arranged on both sides of a shock wave (16).
