Abstract
A fan module with variable pitch blades for a longitudinal axis propulsion assembly. The module includes a rotor through which a rotor shaft runs along the longitudinal axis X and carries the blades of the fan. A system for changing the pitch of the blades includes a mechanism connected to the blades of the fan and a controller acting on the mechanism. The controller has a fixed body and a movable body translatable along the longitudinal axis X relative to the fixed body, and a load transfer bearing arranged between the mechanism and the controller. The fan module includes a power shaft driving the rotor shaft via an epicyclic train speed reducer, the speed reducer including a sun gear connected to the power shaft and a satellite carrier including a fixed annular ferrule secured to a fixed casing. The fixed body of the controller is mounted on the annular ferrule.
