FIXED ACTUATOR ARRANGEMENT FOR PITCH ADJUSTMENT OF A TURBOFAN ENGINE

摘要

A device for controlling pitch of fan blades of a turboprop including at least one set of variable-pitch fan blades constrained to rotate with a rotary ring centered on a longitudinal axis and mechanically connected to a turbine rotor, each blade coupled for pitch adjustment to a synchronization ring. A turntable is mounted via a rotary connection to a rod of an actuator that is secured to a stationary structural element of the turboprop, the turntable being mechanically connected to the synchronization ring by a plurality of connection arms hinge-mounted on the turntable and connected to the synchronization ring such that a longitudinal movement of the turntable under drive from the actuator causes the synchronization ring to turn about the longitudinal axis.
