    摘要: A propulsion system for an aircraft including a fuselage and a wing assembly. The propulsion system includes a first propulsion device at the level of the rear part of the fuselage and constituted of at least one BLI propulsion unit including a fan, a second propulsion device constituted of at least one conventional propulsion unit, and a transmission device coupling the first and second propulsion devices. The second propulsion system therefore generates the energy necessary for driving in rotation the fan of the BLI propulsion unit or units. The thrust produced by the propulsion devices contributes to generating the total thrust of the aircraft. In this propulsion system at least one conventional propulsion unit constituting the second propulsion device is situated on one side of the rear part of the fuselage between the tail of the fuselage and the wing assembly of the aircraft.

    AIRCRAFT PROPULSION UNIT COMPRISING AN ASSEMBLY OF AT LEAST TWO COAXIAL SHAFTS, ONE BEING CONNECTED TO THE FAN AND THE OTHER TO THE ASSEMBLY OF FIXED BLADES

    摘要: An aircraft propulsion unit includes a drive unit with a static part and a rotary part which rotates a fan situated downstream from the drive unit, an assembly of fixed blades situated downstream from the fan, and a nacelle in which the fan and the assembly of fixed blades are accommodated. The propulsion unit also includes an assembly of at least two coaxial shafts, wherein a fan shaft connects the fan to the rotary part, and a stator blading shaft connecting the assembly of fixed blades to the static part extends concentrically, and for at least part of its length in the interior of the fan shaft. This rigid and compact configuration limits the variations of distance between the end of the fan blades and a fan housing situated in the inner duct of the nacelle.
