Abstract: A system for controlling the pitch of a propeller blade for an aircraft turbine engine is provided. The system generally includes a cup having an annular wall extending about a pitch setting axis of the blade, the annular wall having a lower axial end enclosed by a bottom wall, and an upper axial end that is open and configured so as to enable a root of the blade to be mounted in the cup; and a locking ring that extends around the pitch setting axis and is configured to be mounted around the root, the locking ring being a double dog ring that comprises two annular rows of outer dogs constituting active and safety dogs, respectively.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a fan rotor with variable pitch blades, comprising a rotor disc, equipped at its periphery with a plurality of rotary fasteners (16), each fastener (16) comprising a cell (17) for receiving the root (150) of a blade (15). This rotor is characterised in that an elongated wedge (2) and a prestressing rod (3) with at least one cam (33) are also arranged in each cell (17), the bottom of the cell (17) comprising as many retraction cavities (173) as the rod (3) comprises cams (33), in that the prestressing rod (3) is interposed between the wedge (2) and the bottom (171) of the cell (17), so that said cam (33) is facing a corresponding retraction cavity (173) and in that the prestressing rod (3) can rotate about its longitudinal axis (X2-X′2), between a rest position, in which the cam (33) is housed in the retraction cavity (173), and an armed position, in which the cam (33) exerts a radial pressure on the central region (22) of the wedge (2) so as to move the wedge (2) towards the blade root (150).

Abstract: A method for separating a first mechanical part from a second mechanical part is described, wherein the second mechanical part is bonded to the first mechanical part by an adhesive film along a connecting area, the first mechanical part having a first specific thermal conductivity and the second mechanical part having a second thermal conductivity that is higher than the first thermal conductivity. The method includes at least one cooling step during which the second mechanical part is cooled to a negative temperature and at least one stressing step during which the second mechanical part is subjected to mechanical stress in order to cause the adhesive film to break.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a blade comprising: a structure of aerodynamic profile comprising two mutually opposite skins; and a spar comprising a fibrous reinforcement obtained by three-dimensional weaving and densified by the matrix, the spar comprising a blade root portion extending outside the structure of aerodynamic profile and an airfoil portion arranged inside the structure of aerodynamic profile between the two skins. Moreover, within the blade root portion, the fibrous reinforcement of the spar comprises a non-debound region and at least two debound regions extending radially from the non-debound region so as to form at least four separate branches.

Abstract: A system for controlling the pitch setting of a propeller blade for an aircraft turbine engine is provided. The system generally including a blade having an airfoil connected to a root; a cup having an annular wall extending about a pitch axis of the blade and a lower axial end enclosed by a bottom wall; a locking ring that extends around the root and inside the cup; a safety element that ensures the retention of the root relative to the cup. The at least one safety element can have a generally elongate shape and can pass through aligned holes in the bottom wall of the cup and in the free end of the root.
