    Abstract: A turbine engine blade having an aerodynamic surface extending a first direction between a leading edge and a trailing edge and in a second direction, perpendicular to the first direction, between a root of the blade and a tip of the blade, the aerodynamic surface being made of a fiber-reinforced organic matrix composite material, and a metallic structural reinforcement bonded by an adhesive joint to the leading edge whose shape it follows and which has over its entire height a substantially V-shaped section with a base extended by two lateral flanks having a thinned profile at free ends directed toward the trailing edge, the adhesive joint being locally supplemented below the free ends of the lateral flanks by an elastomeric polymer introduced in the form of solid particles into the adhesive joint and adhered to the aerodynamic surface and/or the free ends of the lateral flanks during a polymerization phase.

    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: 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.
