Propulsion assembly for an aircraft, comprising a load support
A propulsion assembly having a pylon, a turbomachine comprising an engine and a fan that is enclosed by a fan casing, a nacelle surrounding the engine and the fan casing and having a load support disposed in the top part of the nacelle, a front engine attachment between the pylon and a front part of the engine, a rear engine attachment between the pylon and a rear part of the engine, a front fan attachment between the fan casing and the load support, and a rear pylon attachment between the pylon and the load support. Such a propulsion assembly allows a reduction in bulk since the load of the turbojet engine is distributed between the load support and the pylon, and the pylon is attached to the engine.
Assembly including two links and an interleaved stiffener, aircraft engine attachment including at least one such assembly
An assembly including a connecting device, connecting first and second parts, including first and second links positioned on respective opposite sides of the first and second parts and an interleaved stiffener, positioned between the first and second links, having a first contact face oriented toward the first link and a second contact face oriented toward the second link, parallel to the first face, the first and second contact faces being separated by a distance equal to that separating the first and second links. This interleaved stiffener makes it possible to limit the risks of bending of the links when they are loaded in compression.

Systems and methods of retrofitting an aircraft engine to an aircraft
A system and method of converting engines on a turboprop aircraft, including removing an existing engine and associated propeller from an aircraft fuselage, installing an engine mount adapter assembly to the fuselage, and installing a replacement engine to the engine mount adapter assembly, whereby at least some portions of the replacement engine are attached to the engine mount adapter assembly for structural support.

ASSEMBLY BETWEEN AN AIRCRAFT PYLON AND A TURBOMACHINE
The invention relates to an assembly between an aircraft pylon (30) and a turbomachine (20) of longitudinal axis (X), the pylon (30) and the turbomachine (20) each comprising front and rear longitudinal regions, the assembly comprising a rear support (40) configured to connect the rear region of the turbomachine (20) to the rear region of the pylon (30), the assembly being characterized in that the rear support (40) comprises a sliding pivot connection arranged between the rear region of the turbomachine (20) and the rear region of the pylon (30), so as to allow the turbomachine (20) only translational and rotational movements along and about the longitudinal axis (X) and along and about a vertical axis (Z) and a rotational movement about a transverse axis (Y).

PROPULSION ASSEMBLY FOR AN AIRCRAFT
A propulsion assembly for an aircraft, comprising a nacelle, a propulsion system housed in the nacelle and comprising a fairing, a rotary assembly that has a combustion chamber and is housed in the fairing, an exhaust nozzle delimited by a nozzle wall of the fairing, a fuel tank, a supply duct which connects the tank and the combustion chamber, and a heat exchanger system ensuring, during operation of the propulsion system, an exchange of heat energy between the hot combustion gases circulating in the nozzle and the colder fuel circulating in the supply duct by thermal radiation through the nozzle wall.

Thrust load reaction assembly
An assembly for reacting a thrust load from an engine, the assembly comprising a frame, a pin, an evener bar, and left and right thrust links. The frame includes an upper pin interface and a lower pin interface. The pin extends through the upper pin interface and the lower pin interface and includes an upper end and a lower end. The evener bar engages the lower end of the pin below the lower pin interface and connects the left and right thrust links to the pin. The pin is configured to react the thrust load at the lower pin interface and the upper pin interface thereby forming a distributed force couple between the lower pin interface and the upper pin interface.
