PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To mitigate problems relating to an aircraft's attitude changes (during take-off rotation, for instance) and to resultant changes of the incidence of the airflow relative to a fan blade leading edge.SOLUTION: An aircraft engine mounted on an aircraft pylon with a variable pitch mounting system includes a variable length actuator for pitching the engine relatively to the pylon. Spaced pylon front and rear mounts may pivotably mount front and rear stationary engine components of the engine to front and rear mount positions on the pylon. Front and rear linkages may vertically suspend the engine from the pylon with pivotable links disposed between the pylon front and rear mounts and the front and rear stationary engine components. One or more thrust links may be pivotably joined at link rear ends to the pylon rear mount and at link forward ends to a front support frame.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
