Abstract:
An engine mounting pylon for suspending a turbofan beneath an aircraft wing, including a primary structure, a fastening device for fastening to the turbofan, and a fastening device for fastening to the wing. The engine mounting pylon furthermore comprises multiple rigid braces that mechanically connect the primary structure to the wing of the aircraft, a first brace-attachment device that mechanically connects a first end of each brace to the wing, and a second brace-attachment device that mechanically connects a second end of each brace to the primary structure. This braced-pylon architecture makes it possible to reduce the dimensions of the primary structure and the various elements that constitute the first and second attachment devices.
