Abstract

See full text

A system for following the handling of an aircraft engine includes a cradle which supports the engine and stands which are spread out under the cradle. Each stand includes a seating configured to secure the stand on the ground, an actuating cylinder secured to the seating and having a translationally mobile piston, a fixing structure secured to the exterior end of the piston and configured to be fixed to the cradle, and a fluid source which causes the piston to be raised or lowered. Each stand also includes a detector designed to detect an inappropriate movement of the piston and a blocking which blocks the piston from moving when the detector detects an inappropriate movement of the piston. Thus, when an inappropriate movement of the piston is detected, the blocking blocks the movement of the cradle and prevents it from tipping.
