A device for mechanically connecting a control surface to a fixed structural element of an aircraft, including a rotary actuator for driving an element that is securely connected to the control surface in rotation in relation to an element securely connected to the fixed structural element, around an articulation axis, as well as articulation elements for articulating this control surface around this axis. These articulation elements are able to support the control surface independently of the rotary actuator. This arrangement permits taking benefit from the advantageous properties of rotary actuators while allowing removal of the rotary actuator without having first to remove the control surface.

Device for mechanical connection of a control surface to a fixed structural element of an aircraft and aircraft wing element equipped with said device

The invention concerns a system for monitoring a flight control actuator of an aircraft, including:

Monitoring of a flight control actuator of an aircraft

The invention relates to a flight control system for an aircraft comprising control surfaces and actuators associated with the control surfaces to control flight functions, including roll, yaw, pitching, and aerodynamic braking of the aircraft. The actuators associated with the control surfaces that control at least one of the flight control functions are electromechanical actuators. A part of the control surfaces associated with the electromechanical actuators is divided, where each of the divided control surfaces is comprised of at least two independent surfaces.

Flight control system for an aircraft

According to this invention, artificial force gradient means () of a throttle control lever () for a turbo-engine comprise means () for adjusting the intensity of the artificial force gradient.

Method for making uniform the thrust command of the engines of an aircraft

Some but not all engines of an aircraft are provided with thrust reversers. A safety device disables, at least from the position corresponding to idling, the action of the throttles corresponding to the engines devoid of thrust reversers when the thrust reversers are controlled to deployment.

Aircraft provided with thrust reversers

A flying aid device for a fly-by-wire aircraft which has at least two mechanically independent control columns (M1, M2). The device (1) includes: a system (SO) for detecting multiple control corresponding to simultaneous operation of at least two of the control columns (M1, M2); and informing systems (S1, S2, S3, S4), each of which is associated with one of the control columns (M1, M2) and is intended to generate within the control column (M1, M2), when the detection system (SO) detects multiple control, a tactile sensation that informs a pilot of the aircraft who is operating the control column (M1, M2) of the multiple control.
