Abstract
An aircraft provided with a landing gear includes a leg that pivots between a retracted position and a deployed position, a main brace having a state in which the leg is stabilized in the deployed position, a maneuvering structure, and a stabilizing structure. The maneuvering mechanism includes a rotary actuator which is positioned in a hold outside a main force path when the leg is in the deployed position and which actuates a single crank, and a connecting rod having a first end hinged about a first axis to an element connected to the leg and a second end hinged about a second axis to the crank so that the connecting rod and the crank have a first relative angular position so that the connecting rod and the crank stabilize the strut in the retracted position and form the stabilizing structure.
