An engine comprises a gear system and a coupler. The gear system comprises a sun gear, a ring gear, and a plurality of intermediate gears that engage the sun and ring gears. The coupler is for connecting the gear system to an engine static structure. The coupler is configured to limit deflection of the gear system. Two of the sun gear, the ring gear, and the plurality of intermediate gears are configured to rotate and/or orbit about a central axis. The third of the sun gear, the ring gear, and the plurality of intermediate gears is connected to the coupler and is configured not to orbit and/or rotate relative to the central axis. |
