Abstract

See full text

A propulsion assembly includes a turbojet incorporating a fan casing and a central casing around a longitudinal axis, a mounting pylon having a rigid structure, a forward engine attachment interposed between a forward extremity of the rigid structure and an upper part of the fan casing, the upper part being in a vertical median plane (P) passing through the longitudinal axis, an aft engine attachment interposed between a median zone of the rigid structure and an upper aft part of the central casing, and a device for absorbing the thrust forces generated by the turbojet, including two links placed either side of the median plane (P) and hinged, on one hand, forward, on a forward part of the central casing, and on the other, aft, directly on the rigid structure. Such an arrangement enables a reduction of the stresses, and the possibility of designing a simplified rigid structure.
