A method for transporting a turbine engine held by a transport kit by a carriage. The transport kit connected to a connection member hoists the engine to connect to an aircraft fuselage. The transport kit is a structure which includes a hoisting interface () arranged on a rigid hoisting arm () which extends over the turbine engine and is connected to a rigid transport arm () which extends over a lateral side of the turbine engine. The transport arm is connected to at least two engine mounts () solid with the turbine engine. The transport arm (), or one of the engine mounts connected to the transport arm, includes a transport interface () that can be supported by a bearing element () of a truck () used for transporting the turbine engine.

Transport and hoisting structure for a turbomachine

The invention relates to an assembly for the removal, transportation and maintenance of an aircraft turbine engine () on a maintenance trolley (), comprising a turbine engine () comprising an upper means () for attaching the housing () of the turbine engine () to the aircraft and a first lower means () dedicated to transportation for attaching the housing () of the turbine engine (), a maintenance trolley (), and a member () comprising a means for attaching said member () to the housing () and at least one means for support and articulation of said member () and of the turbine engine () on the trolley (), allowing the turbine engine () to pivot to the vertical; characterised in that the member comprises a first attachment means designed to engage with the upper means (), a second attachment means designed to engage with the first lower means (), and a pivot means forming the support and articulation means engaging with a complementary receiving means () of the trolley ().
