Abstract:
The invention relates to a tubular fusible member (21) extending along a longitudinal axis (AL) and for engaging in a two-lug clevis (14) and a single-lug clevis (12) in order to form a hinge (11). According to the invention, the fusible member (21) is constrained in rotation with one of the clevises (12, 14), and it presents a cross-section of shape that varies gradually between a central section and two distal sections, each distal section having reinforced thickness in its regions that extend parallel to the bending plane (PF) in which the fusible member (21) bends when it is stressed, the central section having a second moment of area relative to an axis normal to the bending plane (PF) that is greater than the second moment of area of the distal sections.
