An assembly comprises a wing and a pylon fairing extending from the wing at a pylon location. The pylon fairing has an aerodynamic profile defining a fairing trailing edge. The pylon fairing has an upper section extending from the wing and a lower section including a shelf. The aerodynamic profile of the upper section is cambered toward the root of the wing. The aerodynamic profile of at least part of the lower section is symmetrical. The fairing trailing edge in the upper section extends axially rearward of a trailing edge of the wing at the pylon location. In addition or alternately, a distance between the fairing trailing edge in the upper section and a trailing edge of the wing at the pylon location has a value corresponding to at most 30% of a local chord of the wing at the pylon location.

An architecture of a propulsion system of a multi-engine helicopter is disclosed, comprising turboshaft engines that are connected to a power transmission gearbox. It comprises: a hybrid turboshaft engine that is capable of operating in at least one standby mode during a stable flight of the helicopter; a pack for quickly restarting said hybrid turboshaft engine in order to bring said engine out of said standby mode and to reach a nominal operating mode; an auxiliary power unit that is connected to said electrotechnical restart pack by means of a first AC/DC converter and is capable of providing said restart pack, on demand, with power required for bringing said hybrid turboshaft engine out of said standby mode.

An assembly is disclosed including a first component, a second component, and a spacer component. The first component has a first interface surface. The second component has a second interface surface with a curvature different to the curvature of the first interface surface. The second component is connected to the first component such that the second interface surfaces faces the first interface surface. The spacer component is disposed between the first interface surface and the second interface surface and is configured to be pivotable relative to the first interface surface.

A hybrid power drive system for an aircraft that comprises a rotor and a first power drive sub-system. The first power drive sub-system includes at least one engine in connection with the rotor and provides a first power to the rotor. The hybrid power drive system also includes a second power drive sub-system connected in parallel to the first power drive sub-system, which supplements with a second power the first power delivered to the rotor during operation of the aircraft. In addition, an electric power source provides a third power to the second power drive sub-system.

A rear engine attachment includes a beam attached to the reactor strut, a rudder mounted by a pivot connection on the beam about a main rotational axis, and two thrust rods each exhibiting a first end attached to the rudder and a second end attached to a front section of an engine, the two thrust rods and the rudder attached to the beam together defining a primary thrust path between the engine and the reactor strut to bear the engine thrust. For each thrust rod, the rear engine attachment exhibits a waiting fail-safe system activated in the event of a failure of the primary thrust path. The rear engine attachment includes, for each thrust rod, a break detector integral with the rudder which is provided to come into contact with the beam in the event of a failure of the primary thrust path. The attachment allows a quick inspection to be made to determine whether there has been a failure of the primary thrust path.

An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. The assembly includes a tubular inner housing, a tubular outer housing and a bifurcation. The bifurcation includes a leading edge structure structurally connected to the inner housing and the outer housing.

A primary structure of an aircraft pylon, which comprises upper and lower spars, right-hand and left-hand lateral panels, transverse reinforcers that are disposed in transverse planes and, each have a square or rectangular contour and at least one sole to which the upper and lower spars and the right-hand and left-hand lateral panels are fastened. At least one of the transverse reinforcers of the primary structure has first and second link rods that are oriented along diagonals of the transverse reinforcer, and connecting systems that each connect first and second ends of the first and second link rods to the sole or to one of the soles.

An assembly of parts assembled with one another by a shaft passing through orifices formed in the parts is disclosed. The shaft has a base diameter (DB) and a thickened diameter (DE) over diametrically opposed arcs at two different sections. The orifices are aligned with one another and each have a periphery having a first diameter (D1) on first diametrically opposed portions, the first diameter (D1) corresponding to the thickened diameter (DE), and a second diameter (D2), greater than the first diameter (D1), on second portions of the periphery. This allows the shaft to be fitted easily even when the orifices are only approximately aligned, and also makes removal easier.

The present disclosure relates to a reconfigurable battery system and method of operating the same. The reconfigurable battery system comprising a plurality of switchable battery modules, a battery supervisory circuit, and a battery pack controller, where the plurality of switchable battery modules electrically arranged in series to define a battery string defining an output voltage. The battery pack controller operably coupled to the battery supervisory circuit to selectively switch, for each of the plurality of switchable battery modules, the battery switch between the first position and the second position such that the output voltage is substantially equal to a predetermined target output voltage.

An engine mount system having failsafe securement points. The engine mount system includes a forward mount carrying a coat hanger shackle having a spherical bearing and a cylindrical bearing. Securement of the engine mount to a support utilizes pins and bolts with a retaining double wrench washer incorporated into the final mounting structure. The engine mount system additionally includes an aft mount.
