Abstract:
A propulsion system includes a drive shaft, a fan, a fan shaft, and a reduction device coupling the drive and fan shafts. The reduction device includes a first reduction stage and a second reduction state, and include a sun gear, centered on an axis of rotation of the drive and fan shafts and driven in rotation by the drive shaft, a ring gear, coaxial with the sun gear and that drives the fan shaft in rotation about the axis, and planet gears distributed circumferentially about the axis between the sun and ring gears, each planet gear including a first portion which is meshed with the sun gear and a second portion which is meshed with the ring gear, a diameter of the first portion being different from a diameter of the second portion, and an oil transfer bearing positioned between the fan and the reduction device.
